  1. Hello All, 17 days and I am back for a post up. I am attaching pictures for feedback. I have lost maybe 20% to 40% of the transplanted hair. I forgot how important patience is in this process. I am still experiencing redness and starting to see small pimples in areas. I am taking Biotin, small doses of hair comp, green tea and special minoxadil by Dr. Umar. Do you guys think that is a good strategy for the post up healing? Does anyone recommend anything else. I just bought aloe vera for the itching.
  2. I have been receiving some messages privately. I know what it is like when you have additional questions regarding doctors or the procedure. I have been there. For some reason I am not able to access my inbox on the the hair restoration network site. I can see the message on my regular email but I rather not give that out. I have created a new email address so hairlesshero if you can send me your message on the email below, I will be happy to reply back with answers to your questions. Thanks DS25 Email: DSDSDS2525@gmail.com
  3. Work wasn't that bad. I had some people ask about the redness but I blamed it on a bad rash and a sun burn. I actually got complements on the haircut. There were some that really noticed the redness. I had 4 sessions. I can't really say what went where due to the medication. Dr. Umar has been great at post up email. I will ask him on my next email hairless hero. I will update in two weeks with new pictures. Thanks for the support everyone. I would recommend atleast taking two weeks before going back to work. My procedure ended Friday and I went back to work this Friday.
  4. I just had a procedure done with Dr. Umar for around 5,300 grafts. The hairline looks great. He implanted hair in the back, to the side, scar area, and the front. He used beard and chest hairs. It has been over 6 days and I am healing well. All the crust has fallen out The hair grafted looks great and doesn't look like it is falling out. It is red and the scars from the previous procedure is showing. I have to go back to work and I was hoping for some feedback on how it looks. I was hoping for some solutions to cover up the scar? Do you think I can use hair fibers? Part of the procedure involved a crew cut. Regarding results what should I expect? How long before the redness goes away?
