Thanks for replying.

The redness from the last few transplants was gone within two-three weeks. I seem to heal quickly.

The big difference was with the exception of Dr Rahal, the other didn't shave the reciepient area. Hasson went between, making it easier to conceal. Dr. Rahal left the hairline and worked in the middle the head leaving enough hair after three weeks (granted I grew it long) to hide

This time is the first time the hairline will be shaved down. I really want to do this right this time and hopefully move on a little.

Any time lines of mico-grafts shaved down or previous work shaved down week by week would be great. I've found a few.

Thanks again

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

Need about 2500 grafts in total to re-build the hairline and the area behid the hairline)

This is according to doctors I have visited and sent pictures to online.

My dilema, if i was to assume Hasson, Rahal, and Feller are all equal in terms of hairline, which one would be most artistic at the temple points? The temple areas are important part of this decision.

I have requested work from all, but haven't been sent any from Rahal.

Thanks

Long time forum reader but this is my first post

Which doctors should I be looking at for temple point reconstruction? I'm referring to the triangular hair that includes the sideburns. Interested in Dr. Rahal but have not seen any pictures of this area from his clinc.

Are there any out there?

What about Hasson and Wong and Feller?

Love to hear from you
