Last year I finally decided to have an HT of 1500 grafts using the strip method. I was very surprised when they recommended only 1500 grafts and now, 6 1/2 months later, I've definitely seen some growth, but well short of the desired coverage. I'm doubtful that the next 6 months will show enough improvement to provide a satisfactory result, but I guess we will see in time.
I am cautious to undergo a second procedure as I suffered excessive shedding which, I believe, will lead to a minimal net gain of follicular growth. (possibly due to a lack of consistent Rogaine/Propecia regiment) However, I have now been on a consistent Rogaine/Propecia regiment since my HT.
I've have photos to post at 1 week post-op and then at 4, 5 & 6 months. I will continue to post monthly photos through 14 months.
