Did you have to add density to your hairline after your first procedure?

It looks like your hair grew a bit before it shed. What do you think?

Lately I've been hearing about doctors that use a Triple-Bladed Scalpel. What is the benefits of using this, is it appropriate? What's it for?

How did this turn out? Any pictures

How long did it take for all the hair to shed after the transplant? I'm almost 3 weeks post op and it hasn't shed and everyone swears it's growing

Hi how's it coming

Any progress pics? Density?

How did this turn out?

What was the line? How is your progress?

Pics? Progress?

Final results?

How did this turn out for you?

What are the rules on pimples? Don't touch them? Do you apply anything to them?

Was this folliculitis?

Any tips or advice for me? I just had my procedure with Diep want to make sure I do anything I can to make sure they grow in for me too.

How is your hair coming in? Are you satisfied with your results by Dr. Diep? Any pictures?

How's your progress coming along? Any pictures?

How's it coming? What is the aloe Vera for and where are you applying it? I asked Dr diep if I should use aloe Vera but he said putting anything on your head could potentially increase the chances of infection or folliculitis. Thoughts?

Hey guys after two unsuccessful hair transplants with dr. Wesley Hall in Reno, Nevada, I finally had the courage and finances to have a third one done but this time by Dr. Diep in San Jose. My first two transplants had little to no growth, severe pitting, wide donor scar, and terrible results. I'm hoping that third times a charm and this time everything works out great. I am two days postop after having 2022 grafts put into my hairline using the FUT method. I am following the instructions provided to me by Dr. Diep postop but would also like to hear advice or suggestions from other hair transplant recipients who might have other great ideas or recommendations for the postop process. Anything helps even words of encouragement. As you can imagine after two failed hair transplants sometimes I think that maybe I'm the 5% that simply doesn't grow. Let's hear your ideas on how to achieve the best results after this procedure. Attached are pictures of my Head post op from Diep. There is a small trail of blood on one side but I'm unable to clean that area until the fourth day according to my postop instructions. #hopefull

Hey guys just wanted to share my story with you and hopefully get some good results that I can document along the way. Several years ago I had a transplant by a doctor in Reno Nevada named Dr. Wesley Hall Sr. I was looking to lower my naturally hi hairline and frame my face better but instead I ended up with some terrible pitting, little to no growth, and a bad hair line design that resembled one of a female. The doctor suggested I only needed 600 grafts believe it or not. And when the first procedure failed he did it a second time at no charge with the exact same results, again implanting 600 additional grafts. As you can imagine after two failed transplants I felt like I had no hope, and thought that perhaps I was just one of those few cases where hair transplants don't work. I was lucky enough to get my money refunded before Dr. Hall closed shop and disappeared. He was the only hair transplant surgeon in Reno Nevada. I remember the two technicians that assisted him with the hair transplant seemed very new, with little to no experience. I made the mistake to not do my research, did not even ask to see before and after pictures, and just assumed that a doctor Who owned a hair transplant clinic would know what he was doing. Lesson learned. If you get anything from my story I hope it's that you do your research, that you follow instructions, and that if there's any red flags whatsoever you run the other direction. After years of depression, wearing hats and keeping my hair long to disguise the botched transplant, and dwindling self-esteem and confidence, I decided to do something about it and made a decision to go see Dr. Diep in San Jose. As you can imagine I'm still a little skeptical of this one turning out like the rest but I plan to follow the instructions by the book and hopefully with a more positive attitude and suggestions from folks like yourselves I can get better results and put this tragic experience behind me. I'm really hoping for the third time's the charm. My surgery was on Thursday, August 10th 2017. Dr. Diep and his crew implanted 2022 total follicles in a little over 6 1/2 hours using the FUT method. I went with the strip method because the previous doctor had left a very large and unattractive donor area scar that I also needed revised. Dr. Diep removed some of the old transplants that gave me the circle/feminine hairline and drew out a brand new design that I really like. Dr. Diep surgery was significantly less painful than my two prior ones with Dr. Hall, I was completely knocked out for 75% of the surgery itself. Attached are pictures from my old transplant results and postop pictures after my surgery with Dr. Diep today in San Jose. If you have any questions, comments, or most importantly advice for me I would greatly appreciate it. At this point I want to make sure that I do everything in my power and control for this surgery to produce optimal results.

What did you end up doing with Diep?

How does it look now?

I can see where you need it. I'd say go for it. Especially with Diep.

Good luck to you! Do not put oils on your head! That sounds like a terrible thing to do after this procedure. I would suggest getting several refills for medicine/treatment for folluculitis Incase this happens again and you are half way around the world and it happens again. Nice to see this forum helped.

I think one side is more squared to the temple and the other is round to the temple making it look more fem. I was told these results are from micro mini-grafting... What Is the ideal method??
