  1. Hi Johnny, I see it has been a couple months since you have posted to the thread but I came across it the other day and noticed we have a similar loss pattern (see below) and age (32) so I had some questions. I had my FUE surgery (2100 graphs) ~6 weeks ago at this point with Dr. Paul Shapiro based on his results and excellent reputation. Similar to you my hairline wasn't rebuilt and my crown wasn't touched. The whole experience was great, Dr. Paul spent a lot of time explaining everything to me and building a plan to make sure I was covered in the event of future loss. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, minimal if any pain, and the donor/recipient areas were visibly healed in less than two weeks. My issue is patience... I can't stop looking in the mirror waiting for hair to grow hahaha. I also never shaved my head before so I remain paranoid if the top of my head is normal for 6 weeks or if I had any shock loss. The sides are very thick and the top is very thin, it looks silly, I definitely understand the "ugly duckling" phase now. I have spent countless hours Googling images to see other's results/progress but most people have a typical MPB non-diffused pattern so it is difficult to compare. Then I came across this post and our progress pictures look VERY similar so I am really excited now that my final results will look like yours. Looks like I have another solid 3 months before I notice any cosmetic difference The only difference is I am not taking any meds (freaked out about Pro/Fin side effects and had an allergic reaction to Min foam and liquid) so the only thing I have been doing is LLLT for 30 mins every other day. Were you taking Fin before the surgery and currently? I saw some of your posts said you were but didn't see anything in your signature about it. Anyway man congrats on the great results.
