  1. Ndubya, yes dr b said yield from first op was not where it should have been. As per my posts, it was clear that I felt the same. He said I deserved more density and for this reason he reinforced the first op with 900 grafts for free. The downside is, I lost 900 grafts which I could have used to do more work in crown or temples. The positive is that dr b is a class act who really cares and wants best result for his patients.

  2. 2 days with dr b and his team completed. So happy it's done with. As usual and expected I was treated extremely well by dr b and his team. When dr b saw me he said he wasn't happy with density / yield from first op and quickly said I need to give him the chance to fix it. He said he refused to let me walk out without him fixing it, for free. This just goes to show the type of person dr b is. He really cares about his patients. I got a totally of 2974 grafts of whic 364 were beard. 900 were used to add repair from first op to add density in back of hairline as I had patches and minimal growth behind the hairline thus causing a see through look in the front. We also strengthened the temples and sides and then did crown today.nsince we used 900 for repair we did t get to the back of head but did fill in top of head. Dr b says it's better to get denser front that fill in dip at back. I agreed. All went amazing. All I need now is over 90 percent yield.

  3. HI,,, yes in fact it wad a fairly large area. Dr b had originally suggested a smaller area but I asked him to cover a larger area and told him I'd be ok to sacrifice density for coverage given my extensive hairloss. It was my choice to wait two yrs for second op. Time flew. Second op, I'll definately have to address lateral humps as they have thinned and top of the back of my head. Might have to do a touch up on left side of hairline. I will be discussing strategy when I see dr b. Will work to help improve the cosmetic look knowing I have too much hairloss to have a full thick head of hair. I'm really going for illusion of coverage. When I grow out my hair it gives a decent illusion of coverage but since crown is now almost bare it looks weird grown out. So plan is to get coverage so I can eventually go it all out longer and have a better overall illusion of coverage

  4. Hey this guy, sorry for the delayed response. I've been extremely busy and not in the site much anymore. I will be adding new pics At the 18 month mark, but not much has changed from last pics and I don't expect much change from this point on. I'm really looking forward for my second op in December. If successful I think it will really make a huge difference in density and added coverage on top humps and further back.
