Well i have had a 800 Fue on my frontal 1/3rd about 6 months ago
Everything is perfect till now.. But what concerns me is the bumpy appearance around follicles..
Well this is Pic is taken almost 45 days post op after shed.. There were not much visible scarring then
Now at 6.5 months the hairs have started maturing.... and at the roots i can see white little bumps... I am worried.. what shoud i do now... I want to go back normal again... I dont mind going bald now... all i want is to be natural again... and i dont want more transplants
What should i do...Are they permanent? Or do they subside as time goes...
How soon will cobblestoning appear after a transplant
Great Transformation Bill.... Since you have underwent multiple procedures kindly give me an opinion
I have a Norwood 3 Balding pattern.... Everyone in my family do.... Starts balding young and then stays it like that.... Kinda Stupid Gene...(No balding on DAD's side)
I am 23 and have already performed an HT of 700 Grafts -frontal 1/3rd (4 Cm of strip was taken yielding 320 grafts) and remaining FUE.. A total of 16 sq cm has been covered....
Once the pattern is complete (might take 5 years from now i assume ) i would have 51 sq cm to be covered (Measured with graph paper) requiring at least 2500 grafts....
I am now confused.... What should i do....
1) Wait till the balding process is complete?? (Would have to excise a new strip since i wont get another 2500 from previous strip scar)
2) Do another two 1500 grafts sessions as and when required... (First 1500 strip removing the existing 4 cm scar and later another new 1500 strip)
I Don't mind having multiple strip scars at the back as i keep my hair atleast 7 cm in length
What is your opinion... Which approach would be ideal??
P.S : There are no Advanced balding classes in our Family....
Hi bill
How did you manage to get that much amount of grafts.... Are you one of the lucky ones having excellent density and elasticity??
Were multiple strips used??
I have had done a 700 Graft procedure on my frontal 1/3...
I am 4 months post op with encouraging growth....
But i can still see those rashes like scars.... Do they subside.... Surgeon used 1.2-1.5 mm to create recipient sites....
Are those tiny white scars permanent??? Any help
That's one fact.... Losing a hairline is far more worse than having a bald spot at crown....
Hairline frames your face... 4000 grafts would create an acceptable density hairline if you don't waste it on crown....
If you think you are destined to a norwood 6 then don't do it.
4000 grafts is not going to give anywhere near acceptable coverage to a norwood 6 Patient
I was 11 years old when that post was made... Enjoying my life to the Fullest then... No worries about Wind, rain.... Totally free...But now i' here at 22 with receding Hairline...
This post has Literally killed the Optimist in Me...
Sorry for the Multiple replies but i read the story now...
You are only 21... and that Strip seems to be large.. Did he mention anything about the grafts you have in reserve?
