Thanks for the vids ErsB1 just watched them all. I'm at my 4 month mark and seem to be progressing at the same rate as you, needless to say my patience is getting a good workout! But to see your great results coming through after the 6 month mark keeps me hopeful.

Hey HT, Hairline definitely looking stronger than last months pics. Thanks for the update mate.

Thanks Wibbles will be sure to update soon. Yeah as for the issue with the "partner" and the amount of incisions, I'm pretty sure the Dr in question is Erdogan who is known for his dense packing, once the guy gets some good growth come in and is happy, hopefully his partner will be too.

Hey Erkso,

Great to see your update with pics.

Being only 2 weeks ahead of you with my HT, my hair regrowth looks pretty much identical to yours. However in the last 10 days I've noticed a fair few lighter finer hairs coming through so hopefully they darken and thicken up soon. As soon as I notice any significant changes I will be sure to post some pics.

Hopefully we are both on the brink of some great results.

At 4 months will post pics with comparison photos.

Hey Erkso,

At 3 months both sides of hairline look like HT-FUE's right side at 3 months, so I'm hoping over the next few weeks I see as much improvement as he has on both sides, although I may be a slow grower as there are not as many fine hairs coming through as I hoped at this stage.

I've got to the point that I like the fact that my skin is still a little red as it shows there is still some action happening and I can still feel the healing process taking place.

Looking forward to seeing your progress keep the updates coming.

Man what a difference one month makes! Looks awesome, your 3-4 month comparison photos say it all. Plus you have another 8 months for further thickening. Really happy for you mate.

Hey FUE,

Good question! Not sure if he could prove how many he made. The one regret of my operation was not counting the incisions while he was making them. Even though you cannot see the incisions obviously nor feel them because of the anesthetic I could hear them being made like a scratch from your fingernail across your scalp. That being said he was making incisions quite fast I would say between 1 -2 incisions per second for around 40 mins. So in doing the math its quite possible to acheive my 3200 incisions in 40 mins at that rate. When I tried counting the FU/cm2 on my scalp after the op, I came out with around 30 per cm2 and apparently I had a total area covered of 90cm2 which totals 2700 FUs all up. The area where I took the sample cm2 was on my temple which was easier to count as some other areas seemed a little more densely packed where I can only hope that was where the remaining 500 FUs were placed.

Hope this helps. Also I was taking finasteride for about 3 months before my op. Not sure what would be an optimal time to take before op though.

Hey HT, great to see some good growth coming through before the 3 month mark. You can see where your hairline will come down to now, whereas at 2 months you couldn't. Definitely progressing well. Looks like your all set for some serious growth in the next few months.

Hey Erkso, as you know I'm around 2 weeks ahead of you I have still got a little redness. My shedding started on the 17th dec and stopped falling out around a week ago. I still have some stubble and it looks a lot more sparse than yours. I'm just telling everyone I've been sun burnt and it seems to be taking a long time to heal. If anyone asks why is it taking so long to heal I just say I'm going to a skin specialist to get it sorted not sure and act dumb like the Stig said haha.

That being said I have noticed the redness drop off quite a bit in the last 2 weeks so with any luck you will have the same, all the best mate.

Hey Erkso

Looks like he has done a excellent job. Yours should turn out really thick as they are so tightly packed. I guess he could pack more into such a small area (50cm2)because of the 40 micron size. Compared to mine you have had more grafts in almost half the area!

Man your left side has grown back fast! It's just on 2 months post op. Right side should catch up fast. Thinking that PRP was well worth it.

I do not think cutting your hair or leaving it will make much difference either way. Your donor area looks really thick, my guess is you could cut that down to a number 2 clip no worries in the donor area.

Hey Erkso looking forward to seeing your results.

I'm just over 3 weeks now and transplanted hair starting to shed. Lost about 50% of hairs so far, will post some pics soon. Hoping the quicker the hairs shed the faster the new growth.

Erkso how did everything go with your op?

Early growth already! That's a great sign HT.

Brilliant result Pma! Lorenzo has done great work congrats. Can't wait for my 12 months to come round.

Hey Johnny any updates? has your transplanted hairs fallen out yet or are they still holding?

This is 6 days post op

Yaz I looked back at some of your pics and I think you have a much stronger hairline than I had pre-op so I think 3000 fue will be heaps. Average donor capacity is around 7000 and as your hair looks really thick I don't think you will have any worries.

My donor capacity was just over 8700 FUE.

Yes:

Total Grafts: 3204

Total Hair: 6857

Hair/Graft:2.14

Caliber:60

1 hairs - 540

2 hairs - 1733

3 hairs - 874

4 hairs - 56

5 hairs - 1

Here are some better quality pics -

Yeah I left last Tuesday. The Raddisson is really good. There is a grocery store just around the corner and small cafes across the road not far from grocery store. Just ask at reception. Cheaper and better than the minibar and hotel food.

If you feel any pain during op dont hesitate for more anesthetic it only stings for a sec and then scalp is numb.

Will be updating with better pics shortly.

That's great erkso! glad to hear you have finally arrived. Are you staying at the Raddisson?

Thanks guys! Astaldo I noticed your hair really thickened up after the 6 month mark, least now I know what I can hope for at that stage too.

Yas89 from your pics your hair looks great already. how many more grafts are you hoping to get in April?

Rawkerboi I will post the pics from the clinic so it gives a clearer picture of why I needed so many.
