Thats without dermatch chaps. Here's one with a bit of dermatch in

So heres my update after about 9 months. Im really happy with the result. I recommend Dr De Reys to anyone

Heres the 3 month update. Its filling in pretty nicely now. Months 2 to 3 i've seen the most growth, long may it continue...

With dermatch

Ill get a photo with dermatch and post it for you over the next few days

Thanks yeah pretty close. I did mention it to him and from what i recall he said some doctors recommend it after surgery. He didn't have any issues said it was up to me. I started using it about week 5 and still using it now. The growth seems to be ok with it so ill keep using it for a while. Another guy on here that went to Dr rudi a few months before me used it as well and he had no issues so that was enough for me to give it a go. I have kept my hair short (number 5 buzz) it looks pretty good with that length. When the top gets longer you can star to tell im using something to cover up the front so i just keep it short. With the hairline coming through im using less and less and it still looks pretty good

Heres an update 2 months and 2 weeks in. I lost most of the implanted hairs but a few stuck around. Got quite a few pimples in donor and recipient area but mostly cleared up now. Things are looking pretty good. You cant really tell from the pictures but my hairlines coming in pretty nicely its still thin around the sides a bit but ive been putting dermatch in and that makes it look pretty good (although dermatch really just paints the scalp it still looks ok, you cant tell unless your really close up). Its started to fill in over the last few weeks I can see the hairs coming through although their pretty thin but thats how my hair is usually. Better than i expected at this point anyway. Will post an update in another month or so

Hey there, ive got thin hair and just had fue a few months back. My doc said it was very thin but said he took extra care not to dissect any grafts. I think you should look for a skilled surgeon that does the procedure himself, or one that has skilled technicians doing the surgery. You can check out my post to see results although i am only 2 months after the op seeing some positive results, just search for mu username

Hey, this was the post that got moderated earlier. Apparently they have a legal issue with a Dr i mentioned so it was removed. I went to Belguim for my fue but before hand i looked at a few in AU. Dr Chan and Dr Knudsen were the main ones i researched although there wasn't a lot of information on the results they had achieved, not as much as the o/s docs anyway. Not sure what your reasons for not travelling are but if you have any questions about my experience travelling for the procedure happy to share. Hope that helps somewhat. Cheers

Hey, I put that in the initial post, but its being moderated. Maybe they need to moderate anything with a doctors name in the post. Should show up soon

Yeah i found that a bit strange too, im no expert but i thought that it may be due to the level of expertise and possibly that fue was taken up by more doctors a lot earlier overseas than it was here so there are more doctors practising this technique and hence have more experience. Just a guess My doctor did say that the procedures are very fatiguing so they do try and limit the number of procedures they do in a week so by them being busy its not like they are churning through patients at a high rate. I think he was down to 2 per week these days and it definitely didn't seem like he was keen to do anymore than 2 more likely wanting to do less. Also, they make a bit of money from them so i assume money is not a driver to do any more than they need to as they make enough off a few procedures to live a good life (by my standard anyway!). Also from my research the docs in Aus charge a lot more than o/s so being busy may only mean 1 procedure a week, maybe longer.. (Approx 20K AUD for the procedure in Aus vs 6000 EUR o/s for the equivalent number of fue grafts) ps - i made an earlier post on this topic but it looks like it needs a moderator to approve it...

This is at almost 1 month. Instead of rubbing aloe vera cream on i've put it into a spray which does the job as the hair was shedding when i applied the cream. Still a bit of redness in the donor and recipient areas. Ill try update every month.

Its been 3 weeks now and yeah they've been falling out over the last week. Theres not many left actually... dammit! Ive got a bit of redness and its still pretty itchy. They mostly fall out when i put the aloe vera cream on. Donor area is fine now. Ill try get some current pics but the lighting in my hotel isn't great

There's a little bit but hardly noticeable. It's still pretty itchy tho and it feels like I'm getting a few pimples round the donor area. I've had a few hairs fall out I'm hoping the rest don't but that's probably just wishful thinking

Dude I'm 9 days post op and smashed out 75 pus yesterday and went for a run albeit only a few ks. Just do it
