  1. I would really like to see how this turned out. My scar from Dr. Diep also turned out less than desirable
  2. I experienced very extensive shock loss from an FUT. Some did grow back but not all
  3. Combination of everything. Hair illusion, Eyeliner, eyeliner pencil, dermatch, toppik, hats, saran wrap with hats, du rags.
  4. I'm sorry, I just dont understand your logic. I don't know how disclosing the surgeon would take away from your result in any way. Clearly, people are curious and your information could help them make a decision. But to each their own, i just dont understand it. Yes I have had a HT, I plan to post the results soon.
  5. See, I made a thread on this. I have no idea why people are afraid to disclose their surgeon... Anywhos, growth looks good.
  6. The title says it all. I have come across a lot of threads have concerns about weather the result will be good or not. Or if they took a particular issue with the doc or something they did. They will say things like I don't want to give the name until i speak with the doc or something to that extent. One thread I remember even said they thought they may get in trouble for mentioning a doctor's name. If you have proof and documentation of whatever qualms or issues you have then why don't people like to mention the doctor's name? I've just never been able to understand this.
  7. WOW. that is actually quite impressive. It's actually growing in the right direction and angle for AA. I had no idea he could do AA FUE. Well, may have to schedule a consultation but heard he is quite expensive, anyone know the rates these days??
  8. Looking good from what I can tell. Can you tell what direction and angle your hairs were implanted. I believe the degrees of which African American hair grows and other races are different. It would be interesting to see if your doc took that into consideration. But keep us updated! Can't wait to see the final result.
  9. Hey man, I wouldnt panic too much. I had much worse shock loss in the back. If you looked in the dictionary for the definition of "ugly duckling stage" I would have definitely won. it was incredibly bad, i think it got its worse after 1 month. but I am at 5.5 months post op now and i can tell you with certainty it is growing back. Lucky you though, you have long hair. I wear my hair short and it was incredibly incredibly difficult to hide. I think i started noticing improvements around month 3.5 to 4. Happy growing!
  10. Hey man. Everything looks good and according to plan. Please continue to post and keep us updated. Plenty of people are looking even if they dont respond
  11. You are glad you did it, but are you satisfied with the crown results? Seeing as you still have to use concealer?
  12. Bro.. that post was 7 years ago. I'm sure he recovered
  13. I don't right now. But I plan to when im ready because I have a hell of a story to tell. I am almost 2 months post op with Dr. Cooley. It was my 3rd HT. But if you have any questions ill be happy to answer.
  14. Ha, guess the mystery still remains. Yeah, he definitely cares, i think it was like 15 hrs for me. Looking good, keep us updated.
  15. Yeah, it actually had me quite worried when I had surgery with him. When I went back for my second check up I think like 3 or 4 days post op, I tried to ask but I didn't really know how to ask that question without sounding like an ass or dumb. But I told them I was having a hard time seeing the grafts, the assistant said she had magnification and could see all the grafts and everything looked great. Then Dr. Cooley walked in and told me to just feel all the grafts. Which i did but I don't think i got the answer i was looking for. Because there is definitely a difference, when I had surgery at another clinic before I could see exactly where the grafts were places. With a bump/pimple appearance. And because of the ATP spray there really isn't in crusting to be able to tell either. I was also worried about facial swelling because the prior surgery I looked like a lemon head. I asked Dr. Cooley prior to surgery. He said I shouldn't worry about it as he has "tricks" for that. and sure enough, I had no facial swelling. I don't know if it was partially because most of the grafts were placed in the crown this time. But he is definitely good at what he does. Anyway, yeah please let us know what he says when you ask him! Super curious.
  16. I can't seem to figure out what Dr. Cooley does differently. His grafts directly after post op are difficult to see. Very clean and neat, but where as the usual pimple/bump appearance you see from most clinics isn't there so much. I wonder if he uses smaller grafts. any how, best wishes.
  17. You really have nothing to worry about man. I'm an avid lifter myself, I've had 2 FUT's. about to have a third. Youlll bounce back with the weights in no time, even Dexter Jackson took 8 weeks off during off season. It's also good to let you body heal some times also. Just make sure when you return you are careful with exercises that cause you to bend your neck.
  18. No prob. I'm almost 4 months now, happy to answer any ques.
  19. Im pretty sure that's just how the scabs/crusts form. Not quite the same lines but I had the same sort of thing happen from my surgery with Dr. Diep.
  20. Why do you think you would get in trouble? This is supposed to be a place where we are able to share our experiences openly, good or bad. Anyhow, I'm pretty sure i know which surgeon you speak of. I just had an operation with said surgeon 10 days ago. I plan to share my experiences here so I wonder why you feel that way. But it looks good now, glad it worked out.
  21. Looks great. I'm also AA, If I may ask, Who was the surgeon who specialized in AA with minimal results and how many grafts were done?
  22. Wow, man. Thanks for posting, it was incredibly helpful. The scar line is impeccable omg, I am a little jealous.
