It’s been a while since I’ve been on these sites. Its unfortunate I guess, but out of site out of mind. As I’m battling this hair loss beast again I assure you I’m staying around, even after this hopefully gets resolved
I will post some pictures in due time to better illustrate my dilemma, but I thought I would include just a brief below as I’m looking for some advice.
Brief:
I’m 37 years old and had my first surgery at 21. I would do anything to take that day back. I had surgery on the hairline with micro-grafts. It didn't look overly bad, but never really looked natural. I had thick dense hair behind the hairline and was able to conceal it well.
About seven years ago Dr. Hasson did a great job repairing and refining the hairline camouflaging the larger micro-grafts
3 years ago Dr. Rahal placed 1500 grafts in the centre of my head as I was thining. Things looked great. We didn’t have the hairline but he did place a few in front to soften the look even further
Current:
The native hair from my transplanted hairline and where Dr. Rahal placed the grafts has now become very thin and Dr. Rahal recommends 2000 graft. This would basically hold me off as my crown is in decent shape. He also recommends I shave the hairline this team and allow him to place a few in between and really clean it up. I trust his work and opinion
My question is can someone direct me to some timelines of growth week by week, month by month of growth times. Preferably someone who has a transplant and shaved it down for addtional work. Would like to see how it looked growing out during the first four-five weeks
Possibly someone with diffuse loss as well
Trying to determine how I’m going to conceal this when I go back to my office job. I have three weeks off work
Truly appreciate these type of sites
