Sorry for your result. I am not happy that these results come from a coalition member but I guess they never bat 100%. It's unfortunate that after all that money you have no results. My worst nightmare. Good luck with sort it out. If

jimmybald replied to kanibobani's topic in Hair Loss Drugs
Wal Mart - $9.00 for 30, 5mg Finasteride (generic) tablets, cut into 1/4ths, and boom, 4 months of hair meds. -
One of the best results I've seen. Do you think that the great results had to do with his hair characteristics? In addition to your ability of course.

Cost of hair transplant in Chicago
jimmybald replied to chicagoguy123's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Take a good look at Dr. Panine in downtown Chicago. He is very reasonably priced and a coalition member of this site. I had surgery with him 5 1/2 months ago, my hair is already looking better than before and I have another 6 months to improve. Take a look at my old post to see my reviews thus far. I will be updating at the six month mark. Good luck in your choice. -
Average donor grafts available?
jimmybald replied to hairtodaygonetmrw2's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
In my case, I have had 5100 grafts so far in two sessions. I was told that I have another 3-4000 grafts. You can check my pictures to see my hair characteristics. After that, you can utilize the FUE method and body hair if money is no problem. I think the key is to choose a great doctor so your limited donor hair doesn't get misused or wasted by a failed surgery. -
Gobble, I don't think that pimples hurt the follicles. I think they are just ingrown hairs breaking through the skin causing pimples, just like the ones that sometimes appear a day after shaving the face. The hair you saw was probably a graft that was going to shed either way. It should grow back after about 4 months.

Has anyone not gotten any pimples and had a good result. I am almost 16 weeks post and I have not had any pimples which kind of concerns me. Thanks

17 months post op and 11 weeks post op
jimmybald replied to jimmybald's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
There was some hair transplanted in there by Dr. Panine. The harsh light makes it look quite bare but it's not as bad in person. You check out my pre op shot on my Dr Panine surgery thread. -
I got a new camera so I thought I'd post some pics in harsh light to really highlight the transplanted areas. I had 1800 grafts w/ Dr. Pong in the receding hair line area 17 months ago. It grew in fast and I'm mostly satisfied. The hair doesn't match up well to the surrounding hair because it is much more coarse and dark, so it stands out up close. When the hair is longer, it blends in better but stillt darker. I had my second surgery 11 weeks ago with Dr. Panine. The recovery has been fine, the numbness has persisted longer than my first surgery. I did have 3200 grafts the second time which could explain the longer healing process of nerves. I think I also had some shock loss around the scar as you can see. Most hair was put in the crown, the other hair was put in the thinning parts of the frontal third. I'm getting really anxious for my last surgery to blossom. A lot of the hairs never shed and are still there. I shampoo vigorously but they stayed put. I figure that they will fall out when a new hair pushes them out, right? Another concern is my temple area on the right side. It looks very unnatural next to the transplanted hair in the area. I think I will FUE that area and any other area that needs addressed. Not sure I can go through a strip again. Thanks for reading

What is the best concealer? and why?
jimmybald replied to MoeyK's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I have used quite a few concealer products, toppik, nanogen, dermamatch, and most recently caboki. I got a trial offer from caboki's website andI really liked it. I ordered a big bottle of Caboki fibers even though I have a full nanogen bottle in the cabinet, as I've been shaking the latter product on my head for the past two years. -
Great results. I had a very similar procedure 7 weeks ago. I hope my final result is on par with this crown of glory.

Virgin Scalp....best approach?
jimmybald replied to cargo65's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
In my case, I had 1800 grafts for my first transplant and 3300 in my second. I was told by a coalition doctor that I still had another mega session left in the hair bank. So I think it's possible to have a mega session after or before a small surgery. Although, a lot depends on the patients donor characteristics. -
Thanks guys. The scar does look good and is healing great. I'm have been applying mederma since the stitches came out at day 14.

Here is my scar 17 days post up with Dr. Panine. I just had a haircut to try to conceal the scar... Didn't really work. I guess the hair has to even out first before that smiling line with blend in.

swollen and numb above scar
jimmybald replied to jimmybald's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Is it possible that since it's numb my mind is tricking me into believing that it's swollen?? It's just feels strange when I put my hand around it. It feels as if the shape of my skull has changed. -
I'm 15 days post up after 3236 grafts. I still have swelling around my skull north of the scar. It feels like the skull is protruding and it's still numb. I'm not sure if I remember feeling this last time I had surgery after two weeks. Is this normal? When will it end?

Tiztom, the hair looks great man. Dr. Pong and his crew did a great job. I

Check my past posts. I have been told by a coalition doctor that my work is about as good as it gets for what I had done. You can't go wrong with Dr. Pong. That sounded like a jingle.

I had 1800 grafts with Dr. Pong. He transplanted into the corners of the hairline. The middle area is my my normal hair. Dr. Panine put grafts in there to match it with Dr. Pongs work on the sides. Dr. Panines work looks really good post op, no scabs, blood, I had more scabs with Dr. Pong. I am back in the USA so Dr. Pong is too far away now. Dr. Panine was impressed with Dr. Pongs work. I think Dr. Pong could easily be a member of this site. I will ask for the picture that Dr. Panines office took of my scar before they excised it in order to cut a new strip. I haven't seen it so I am curious.

My face swelled really bad around day 3. It is starting to subside a little now on day 5. My head is still swollen and numb above the suture line. I also have bruising behind the ears...is that common?

I just wanted to inform yu about a compliment I received from a coalition doctor .It was regarding Dr. Pongs work that I had back in Feb. 2011. Dr. Panine said it was a beautiful scar and the hair trasplant was a great success. Even the techs were saying it was a great job. I will have pictures of Dr. Pongs scar because Dr. Panines staff took pictures of the scar before they excised it. Anyways I wrote this to reassure you that Dr. Pongs work is indeed on par with coalition member for those of you in Asia/Austraia looking closer to home

I had 3226 at $3.50 per graft.
