It's a LONG ride from here, but to be precise they will know you had something done. JUst roll out...not much you can do. The redness will linger around for awhile.

I'n thinking about going the next step for a another hair transplant to restore temple angle closure, temple points, and slightly lower the hairline. I had my first FUT with Dr. Rahal(NW2) which was a grand slam despite him not giving me temple points. Ever see someone with a strong hairline whether it be an HT or toupee but with flat sides, and no angularity? perhaps a bit of miniaturization... it looks unnatural, and fake to the trained eye. I'm looking for a cost-friendly and reputable FUE surgeon for 1000-1500 grafts.

It'll heal on it's own. During the beginning stages the scar will feel slightly raised, and lifted but over time it will heal, and not noticeable with the touch of your finger. Nothing to be concerned about. Redness takes a lot longer to fully dissipate.

looks about right for six 1/2 months post OP (transparent, and see through) It'll start looking good after 7-8+ months IMO

could take up to six months before redness fully dissipates. Fair skinned Caucasians take a while.

I would just get a toupee if I were in your situation NW7 already apparent, that and your whole scalp is diffused. I t would be in your best interest to get an HT for temple point restoration, and a purchasing a wig.

Great result. A crown, and side touch up... and it'll be a homerun

Perhaps you're a non-responder.

Good luck with the procedure. TIP: cut the comb over, it looks horrible man. Sport a shaved head until the grafts start growing in. Nothing says desperation like a flap over.

Guest house hands down. Not only is it close, but it's quiet, contained, and a short distance from Rahal's clinic. Walking distance. Post OP, interacting with people will be the least of your concerns, and the guest house is the most plausible choice in that aspect. Literally two streets over, and you're at the clinic. Hotel is a bad choice in comparison IMO... unless you fancy guest service.

Of course, this isn't even up for debate. Temple points alone yield a vast impact on our looks as a whole, the hairline, and crown that's just another part all together. In Fact, temple points are paramount towards the natural appearance of hair restoration, and are the most importance characteristic of an aesthetic result. Iv'e seen fat losers, alcoholics who are diabetic, and not healthy by the any means who look good for their age due to the fact they have a full head of hair. Getting older, loosing skin elasticity, and becoming wrinkly is highly accentuated when you're bald, and it becomes that much more apparent, and worse then it actually is. Hair acts like a safe guard towards preserving youth, and vitality. Regardless of exercising, and eating healthy it wont make up for a slick NW7, all though it's a step towards the right direction if being proactive is what one is after.

shotgun punch technique of peace SMP for donor, shave and moving on with his life would be ideal. Great none the less

/thread Rahal is king

Dr rahal is your best bet (Ottawa) 6 hr drive from Toronto

I'd be concerned to if I were in the same situation as yourself, considering the result thus far is equivalent to what I experienced around 4-5 months post OP. Might I add that I also had my surgery with Dr. Rahal. 2300 grafts for a NW2, but planted for a NW3....an advanced approach for future loss. Id give it another shot and if it doesn't work then i'd move on His work is top notch IMO..I'm 8 months post OP(same as yourself) (October 28th surgery) and I'm blowwwn away by the results

On track to achieving a great result. 4-6 months you can expect kinky, wavy un-coordinated and wispy hair. IMO the magic doesn't go into full throttle untill 7+, this is when you start to fully appreciate the magic of an HT, the hair itself thickens, becomes straight, redness fully gone, and you're re-born

if you're over a NW4 I personally wouldn't bother with a HT unless your goal is just having hair on your head versus a full head followed by density, and coverage, which is plausible if you're a NW4 or under. Option a) fully restore temple points with an HT, and opt for a hair system. Temple points are paramount for having a natural appearance, and result

Specializing in dental, hair transplants and optometry..lol don't know where to start. Sorry bro

pluggy look.

Good result but hairline is to high. Brings unwanted attention to forehead, and throws of symmetry. It's results like these that make me skeptical. Doesn't make sense when you see a high dense hair line, it throws of symmetry and looks out of place. It's odd .02

WRONG. Attraction is heavily influenced by a full head of hair. Bald guys are like ghosts, only you feel pain.

looks pluggy 2000 - 2500 would of been a dense pack, and offered a pleasing result

Gratz bro. It certainly is ....excuse my french. FUCKI@NG life changing. outlook on life starts becoming way more positive 7 half months post OP... it just keeps getting better. STarting to develop hair greed. perfect head of hair now, but thinking about sharpening, and bringing out temple points for maximum aesthetics

Anything under 6 months is to early. it wasn't untill I hit seven months that I was finally starting to be pleased with the results. The growth was all evident, and every graft came in but it still looked like crap hence the reason I became worrisome. It really does only get better from here on, slowly but surely As for redness it took me 6 - 61/2 months for it to be fully gone. Don't be alarmed
