Hello everyone!
I just wanted to share my story. I'm 39 years old and just had 2000 neografts in the front (from hairline to crown). I had the surgery this past Wednesday (4-24-13) in Ponchatoula Louisiana.
When I was in my early 20s (in 1997, I think) I had a 'strip' transplant done while I was in the marines and stationed at Cherry Point. I had 250 grafts on my first procedure, and went back a few months later to get 500 more right behind my new hairline.
16 years later, the only hair I had on top of my head was the planted hair. Needless to say it was VERY thin. So I decided to get another transplant. And I must say, the FUE method was so much better. I always have a high and tight hair cut, so having my hair thinned out in the back of my head isn't a big deal to me. I plan on going back and getting my crown done in a few months from now. These pictures were taken right after I got home from surgery. You can see my scar from the strip transplant in the extraction photo.
Anyway, just wanted to share my story. I've taken a few days off work and I've been bored outta my mind, lol. My previous hair transplant was the best decision I ever made. I wish the FUE was around back then. I wouldn't have a scar if it was.
