  1. So I am coming up on completing month five (on Friday) and I am a little worried. My right side and crown are growing great and started around month 3. But the very front of my hairline has only had a little growth, as well as the left side. If the left side doesn't grow (I haven't had any new sprouts since beginning of month four) its going to look a lot shorter then my right. Even my crown is growing in quite well. So should I be worried I haven't seen any new hair pop through on the left side yet? Thanks!
  2. Wow. Hair-envious right here. I hope you got on propecia to keep all of it.
  3. Does it? It seems that the scar is larger on the right side and the spots with no hair...not cool. I read your write up with your pics and you admitted to having a large scar and that you were thinking of doing a scar revision. You don't think my scar looks like yours?

  9. Well I am going into week 9 and I am ever inching closer to being back to normal (pre transplant). My hair is still thinner around the sides on the crown and a little thinner along the hairline; hopefully they grow back. My scar has improved but now I am wondering if its stretched on the right side. I cut it down using a #4 blade and you can see the outline of the scar. The back and other side are less visible. There two spots on the right where there is almost no hair. And it is still pretty red. I started working out around three and half weeks post op and I have yet to put anything on my neck or do situps with my hands back there. And I am waiting closer to 4 months to go back to training BJJ and Thai boxing. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/lcsulla/albums/1460
  10. Gone with my gut and just had the old transplants I had done in the 90's punched out and shave my head ala Jean Luc Picard. Its a month in and I even on a 7-8 guard you can see my scar from orbit. I have to spend 20 min in the morning putting concealer on it. Not to mention that the hair they shaved down hasn't grown back and my bald spot, which was not huge, is now the size of a grape fruit. This sucks. And I can't fathom anyone wanting to do this multiple time. This just down right blows.
  11. Man...I wish my donor scar looked that good.
  12. Flutamide is much stronger the Spiro. So yes ask your doctor about it.
  13. I guess I am just trying to figure out if I am going to get the coverage I would like to have. And I just noticed that the hair in my thinning areas seem to be thinner then the shaved areas.
  14. I am sorry to hear of your troubles. I would go speak to your doctor about either spironolactone or flutimide. They are both anti-androgens and there are numerous studies done on women. Or consult with a number of doctors in this site and see if they can help.
  15. Hi Athena, Can you give a breakdown of how many grafts where placed in the crown and front? And what density? Thanks!
  16. I was wondering: are the transplanted hairs that are around in the initial stage (first couple weeks) the maximum thickness they can be? I know they shed and grow back thicker and thicker, but what about the first couple weeks?
  17. jonnykino, I would punch a baby to have the amount of hair you do. You have NO hair loss. None. Go out, have a pint with your friends and lot some hot, young girl run her fingers through all your hair.
  18. Well my perspective has changed as I have gotten older. I mainly got this procedure done because I had one in the mid 90's that was beginning to show. If I had it to do all over again; I would just shave it. And I can totally sympathize with many of the young guys on this forum; they think losing their hair is the end of the world. I felt the exact same way. I only wish I had the options many of you guys in your 20's have. Think how all of the guys that are high NW's that are walking around in their late 40's and older that didn't have the options that we have today. Or the guys that were butchered throughout the 80's and 90's trying to get their hair back and look 100 times worse then being bald. Ugh. I feel I am pretty damn lucky to have kept a decent amount of hair (NW3V, in case you are wondering), and my goals are very modest. And it will grow back... LOL
  19. I think it looks great, Megatron. Oh I am glad I checked out you blog, I was going to go back to training at 6 weeks but decided to wait 3 months or so instead.
