Hello guys. Here are my 4,5 month update photos. They counted my surviving grafts from the first procedure to something around 99%. I think my donor looks really good after 9000 grafts have been extracted, and the transplanted hair is starting to look really good as well. Another thing that has helped is switching from finasteride to dutasteride. I kept loosing a lot of hair on fin even after 4-5 years, but as soon as i switched to dut, the shedding has stopped, and my hair has thickened up a lot in the crown and midscalp.

No idea, but they were pretty short. It was a fade, so longer hair in the high parts with decreasing length the lower you go. Never wanted FUT no matter what, you never know if you wanna have a buzz cut in the future, and 2-3 long and big scars in the back of my head is not gonna look good and would scream HT. Homogenous thin hair allover the back and sides from FUE can easily blend in when the hair just has a little length to it, and just look like a normal person who has natural thin hair.

Thank you, I hope so. Of course you can see some white dots when the head is shaven almost to the bone, but if the hair just has a little length to it, it covers it up perfectly and is not noticeable. You can check my other thread here, where it shows my donor looks very full when the hair is around 1 cm long. But again, I had a thick donor to begin with... I am also nervous to find out how it will look now after 9000 grafts

It is hard to tell if it was permanent shockloss or just continued hairloss, because I am still loosing a lot of hair every day even on propecia. My pre op photos from before any transplant actually make my hair look better than it was. All the hair on top was miniaturized, and didn't give good coverage. But yes i agree that a lot of it has been lost since the transplant. Thank you, I hope so indeed as it is my last chance at improving my hair

5,5 month update 5000 graft Dr. Koray Erdogan
acegik replied to acegik's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Hi all. Here are my 15th month results from my 5000 graft transplant with Dr. Koray Erdogan: I have just had another transplant of 4000 grafts with Dr. Koray Erdogan, and you can follow the new thread HERE -
Yes i did, Im a man of my words . I can't wait either, but unfortunately atleast another 9-10 months before I can see the real result Naaah I dont care about the donor, rather hair on top than on the back. As long as the donor is not see-through when the hairs are +2cm long, I dont really care about it. I would say if I were to really really push it, I could maybe take another 500-1000 grafts from my head donor, and probably around 1000 beard grafts, so around 1500-2000 extra grafts in case I need it for the crown in the future. Also switching to dutasteride soon, finasteride is not working so good for me.

Hi Everybody. I have previously had a 5000 graft hair transplant with Dr. Erdogan 15 months ago, as you can see in this THREAD I am very satisfied with the results from the 1st transplant, but because of the extent of my hairloss (NW5-6), and further hairloss since the hair transplant 15 months ago, I decided to use the remaining of my donor hair to increase the density overall. I had great donor hair to begin with, around 8000 available grafts before any transplant. But after the first transplant of 5000 grafts, the Doctor said he could extract another 4000 grafts (totalling 9000 grafts), even though I had hoped for another 5000 grafts :rolleyes: I will update this new thread with the ongoing results of the 2nd hair transplant that I have just received. Here are my 15th month results after the FIRST operation of 5000 grafts: Dry hair:

5,5 month update 5000 graft Dr. Koray Erdogan
acegik replied to acegik's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Hello. I will post some new photos soon. Not much has changed since last update, I still feel my density is not what I want. It is not bad, its much better from where I started, but I want more. I am going in for another HT next month for as much as I can get, hopefully 4-5000 more grafts, if my donor will allow
