Post fue Surgery, Donor area re-growth
seeker323 replied to seeker323's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Hi Dex The donor area looks better now but it is obvious they took too much hair, its not the same as the rest of the hair you can see the outline of where the hair was taken. it doesn't bother me though, should I have avoided the transplant and just shaved my head? Yes. -

Thanks for all the advice I am going to give it a few more months and see what happens, if it doesn't improve so be it. Life is too short to worry about a few less follicles at the back of my head, people around the world are suffering from much worse. I'll consider it a lesson learnt -

I wish I never read this but I already had a feeling they may have over harvested the donor area. I have been on antibiotics and have been using an antibiotic cream the red bumps have started to go down ( I think) I probably won't be able to just shave my head completely due to the scars and leaving the hair to grow will result in this "moth eaten appearance" I am screwed! I did regret this procedure from the very next day I had it done, just had a bad feeling about everything. :mad: -

The spots have been there for a while, if it was Folliculitis surely it would have cleared up by now? I am going to see my GP tomorrow and see if i can get some sort of antibacterial cream and maybe evan another dose of antibiotics. can they really over harvest across the entire region aint it usually localised? I must admit it it does not look so bad from a distance just a dodgy haircut but up close you can see the bumps and gaps. : ( -

I am getting really worried now, I shaved my head so the sides and top look the same. Now the top has grown back as expected but the sides over a month later still looks bad. The pics below are with flash but you can still see the red spots/bumps and the gaps. I thought shock loss was hair not growing back in one particular area for me it seems across the entire region where the hair was taken. Has anyone experienced anything like this? -

Hey Thanks guys for the supportive and reassuring comments. I have included a recent pic below, from a distance and not much flash, I think its definitely improved from before I just hope its back to normal by the time i go home at the end of the month! When can I get a haircut to evan out the back with the rest? Can I use a razor? i am getting conflicting reports online. -

Is there a chance they took too many grafts from the back of my head? I really hope it aint shockloss, I cannot be wearing a hat everywhere I go for the next 3 months! If the hear does not grow back within the next week I aint going to be too happy:mad: -

won't it be obvious if I have an infection? below is the only pic i have before the op showing a bit of the back so i definitely had more hair lol yeh that first pic was straight after the op, it was nasty i think they had a hard time getting my hairs and and just poked me all over the place. Ive still got little scabs on my donor area. Ive posted a pic of the transplanted area about 5 days post op, about 70% of the scabs/hairs have fallen off now -

Its called istanbul hair centre. Yeah my friends HT was fine no problems at all, intact most of the other guys I met at the centre were all healing pretty nicely. If I had another chance i would not have gone ahead with the HT, I honestly would rather be bold, what a waste of money!! I feel like I've made a huge mistake -

Can shockloss really be that severe i.e cover such a large area? I had the procedure done in Istanbul at Istanbul hair centre (based on a recommendation from a friend) not 100% sure how many grafts, I think around 2500. The first photo was taken the day after the op (27th) and I've included another pic below from today (10th day) I am starting to really regret why I evan considered this, the back of my head just looks horrible!! : ( and its the same on the side. -

Anyone!!!!!!!!!!!!! -
Hi, its been 9 days since I had my fue procedure, Everything seemed fien apart from the recovery of the donor area which seemed particularly slow. from most pictures Ive seen the hair has regrown and covered any redness by the 6-7th day. I feel like the hair in my donor area is just not growing as it should and in some areas not growing at all, Ive posted a pic below just after the procedure and recently.
