Again thanks everyone for your replies.I really have no idea what method he used to be honest.As I said I failed to do any research on the subject,I just sort of assumed since he was a dr there was some kind of regulation in place.I have paid the price for my folly.I was told it was FUE but judging from some replies I've seen its just mini plugs.When I am indoors and the lights aren't too bright it doesn't look too bad, but that isn't the point of a hair transplant.The worst part about it is that I spent the better part of a year working 6-7 days a week to pay for it, and now I see I could have paid a little more with the right doc and have what I wanted.A costly lesson to learn.

Thanks for all the feedback.The only reason I thought I got FUE is because that is what he told me I was getting during my initial interview.It is a little disconcerting to feel that I've been ripped off,but at least I won't make the same mistake again.

Hey everyone I've been perusing this site for a while now, wish I'd found it sooner.When I was 25 I noticed I was going bald,here five years later I pretty much am.I found a surgeon in maryland,Dr John Kiely, and after meeting him and his staff I decided to get two procedures done last year.One in July and another in november.I got a total of 600 grafts,fue btw, and it cost me six grand. The donor area looks fantastic, in I can't really even tell where it is to be honest.I was feeling pretty good about the whole thing until recently.My hair is not nearly as thick as I wanted, and I knew that I would need to get more procedures done to get the coverage that I want.My concern is the grafts themselves.In bright sunlight I can see bumps all over my head where each graft is.It is especially notable in the bright sunlight.It looks pretty bad.So after doing some googling I see that this is called cobblestoning.And it is a sign of a bad hair transplant. I feel like I had a pretty good experience with Dr. Kiely, but my fear is that I may be screwed.So my question is, how long after a transplant should I be able to see the grafts.Could it just be that it takes a while to really blend in with the scalp?I've got two pics here I took outside.Any thoughts.I hadn't really thought it was that bad til I started looking closer.Now I'm afraid it looks pluggy and bad.Like I said I had the most recent one in november so its only been six months?I am due to go back for a check up this coming week, and I'm wondering if I should even bother?Hopefully I am just being paranoid and these graft will blend in over time.They aren't the best quality pictures, but hopefully you can see what I'm talking about.
