  1. Yes he is probably right. Shockloss will com back slowly over the course of the year. I you had a giant crust, which is not usual, then the removing of it by scratching wasn't the problem. The giant crust formed after the hair was lost to trauma or whatever. So don't worry about thinking you caused this. You didn't. Just gotta wait it out. Oh and you do have very dense donor hair. Congrats on that! Happy growing!
  2. I guess there is a new FUE hairline king clinic in town To be able to style your hair like that at month 5 means a new life experience for you! CONGRATULATIONS SPIDEY AND H&W
  3. hey who, how much was price per FUE graft with Dr. Wesley thinking about FUE transplant with him thanks
  4. now we know why transplant patients 1st using fin and minox post op have great results... it's the minox! keep going it will get much better and the FIN will make those suckers grow long and thick congratulations!
  5. total life changer congratulaitons! no more bald!
  6. Have you been spraying your head every hour with a saline solution?
  7. hey win congratulations on your HT2 i remember you from a couple of years ago deliberating on the logistics of your next surgery looks like you have a WINner here happy growing
  8. Congrats! That was a HUGE decision to make. Like you, a friend knew his scar was too wide as soon as the stitches were removed. This one looks like it worked. It looks fantastic!
  9. People with great fore locks like you usually have the best results in terms of filling in the temple angles as you want. I would consults with as many FUE doctors as you can. Nothing to lose. Much info and insight to gain. Better to plan on having two surgeries vs. one. Don't get me wrong, this can probably be done very well with one surgery but just be prepared to have a tweak if you need to get it where you want. You have what looks like a very dense fore lock. It's going to look great.
  10. What Adonix/Pilar said was true Friend's repair case had some extractions by dr the rest by techs Maybe dr did some to see how straight forward or not the extractions would be Not sure One tech extracted Another assisted (checked and stored the grafts, I guess) Does "techs extracting grafts in FUE" differ from "the amount of dependence put upon techs in not only cutting each graft from a strip but also placing them into recipient area" in FUT? I don't think so. I think most FUT clinics are more tech dependent than this model used by Lorenzo. What do you think?
  11. Looks less dense because some grafts have most likely fell out by day 14 If not, worse case is that you'll need another round of FUE for density Not a big deal You have a GREAT FORELOCK WITH WIDOWS PEAK These are the best HT case situations and produce the most dramatic results Nothing to worry about here Congratuations!
  12. while i don't approve of the animal testing, i guess there is no way around that love the name of the technique mFUE good luck!
  13. when you go to lorenzo ask him about the shape of the hairline re: naturalness he'll cherry pick 3's and 4's and place for density and 1's, 2's and thinner hairs along the hairline and possibly the temple angles and points to blend tell him your concerns, that something is drawing eyes to the hairline i think you got a great starting point to be able to improve shape and density with a minor adjustment i hear recovery re: FUE with Lorenzo is a cakewalk good growing!
  14. Rahal uses a tech-run FUE-Model to much success techs extracts follicles doc makes slits techs implant Much like every clinic runs a FUT-Model doc removes strips techs cut the strip into separate follicles techs implants In each case the tech is responsible for the follicle used in implanting TECHS are very much responsible for the viability of the grafts in both models whether extracting in FUE or cutting them out of the strip in FUT, in many case making viable 1 and 2 follicle grafts out of the heavy filled 3 and 4 follicle grafts found in the average strip The techs in the current FUT-Doc based model handle all aspects of getting that graft viable enough for transplant the doc does not. This is comparable to the so-called FUE-Tech based model It's the same: Techs play an the same important role in both models Keeping a stable crew of techs will always be an important part of any successful clinic God save the Techs
  15. ^^^^^BUMP^^^^^ i love it (sarcastic) when people ask for help and the answering posts only want to find out who did the work!
  16. HEY MALTESE! your results speak for themselves and have helped many i am sure the clinic will post her result if they are good...LOL! i'm sure she will be happy as you congratulations on your result and thanks for the documentation
  17. my friend had a great experience with Lorenzo and his staff he runs a tight ship and commands respect from staff and patients alike never saw a staff as happy to be there and as focused THIS IS THIRD PARTY INFO BUT THOUGHT IT MIGHT HELP SOMEONE
  18. WOW! saw your 12 month update total life changer congrats
  19. Thomas: yeah i think you are right. if it is any consolation, the deign is great. you can probable get a refund on the difference in the amount of grafts actually placed. maybe go to one of the recommended docs on here and they have instrument that will be able to count exactly how many were placed. then you can go back to your doc and tell him: THE JIG IS UP! ASIDE: WOW! PK If anyone is a poster child for FUE it is you! Congrats!
  20. Checked out your b&a's WOW! What a transformatiom! Congratulations!
  21. Sometimes, shock loss occurs to surrounding native hairs but usually grows back. Do a search on shock loss Spex has a sticky about it
  22. The design is fantastic so congratulations on that By shock loss it is not meant the shedding of the transplanted grafts but shedding of native hair sometimes close to the recipient area sometimes in other places. That said sometimes transplanting close to the borders of native hair is difficult. Don't want to transect existing but also don't want to leave a noticeable gap. Happen to me as well. It could also be shock loss of native hair, which has no guarantee of growing back. Mine didn't. Most do though. I think you are very smart to book the appt next week and have the additional grafts transplanted Into the gap and even into the native hair a bit to cover all bases. As for the payment, well, suck it up. Cosmetic surgery is not guaranteed to be perfect and this is one of the complications of HT, esp if this is shock loss of native hair, which it might be. I'd pay the 2k and call it a day. It looks like a great design and clean job. Good that they are fitting you in so soon too. Take the appt, pay the fee and be done with it. Happy growing
  23. Vitrase is a brand of hyaluronidase, an enzyme that destroys hyaluronic acid Both naturally occurring in the body and injected, such as restyline and juvederm products. I can see how a hyaluronidase like Vitrase will deplete the area injected of its natural occurring hyaluronic acid make the skin more loose (dented) but this effect is only temporary and the natural occurring hyaluronic acid will replenish itself in time. (Naturally occurring hyaluronic acid depletes and replenishes itself every 24 hours ) I guess a high enough dose will create a deep, albeit temporary, depletion and thus a loosening of the skin long enough so a strip can be excised. Wonder if this works as well as those "balloon extenders" which loosen the skin to be excised? Many find in time that the skin goes back to its original tightness and in the end stretches the incision/scar tissue, anyway. Very interesting premise though
  24. Has anyone had shingles a month or so before surgery? On torso not scalp Do you think it would interfere with the surgery?
