  1. I'm 12 days out from my FUE and you look terrific to me! Hoping I look that good at the 12 week mark!!! From your pictures, you've come a LONG way!
  2. I'm 10 days out now...the first few days I very gently towel dried but after day 7 I pretty much did my normal routine which is to towel dry but not too vigorous. I wasn't worried anything would happen, especially since my Dr. said okay to wash hair normally at day 7. That said, the numb sensation on the top of my head is pretty strange!
  3. @gillenator - No real crusts to speak of believe it or not. I'm pretty sure the ATP significantly reduced them (which is what my Dr. said if I used it as directed). It's revolutionary. The ATP has kept my head super moist the entire time so far (I'm 9 days out). I have a small bit of flaking but that's about it.
  4. Depends on how far post-op you are...my Dr. had light fingertips 4 days post op with increasing pressure each subsequent day and then normal washing and scrubbing 7 days post-op. Your grafts aren't coming out after that so clean your head!
  5. I'm 8 days post-op and have zero scabbing. I'm pretty sure it's because my Dr. (Jim Harris) used ATP during the procedure and had me spraying it pretty aggressively post-op. Pretty cool advancement in hair transplantation it seems.
  6. Had a 2 day procedure with outstanding surgeon Dr. Jim Harris (Colorado) who used ATP at the conclusion of each day (lots of spraying) and I used it extensively post-op per their instructions (including 2 days with it infused into my scalp with every 2 hour sprays and wearing a shower cap to keep it all extremely moist). I can't compare to non-ATP use but I have been amazed with my healing in the transplant area and the complete lack of scabbing, which seems to be common with these procedures. Dr. Harris also injects your own spun up blood plasma (super enriched) back into your scalp so I'm sure that is playing a part in a terrific recovery as well. I know the transplanted hairs generally fall out after 2-3 weeks but I'm 8 days post-op (and still using the last remnants of the ATP) and they are growing very nicely (ATP?) so I'm wondering if they will end up falling out or not. I feel Dr. Harris, in addition to being a remarkably skilled surgeon and super personable guy, used every advancement in hair transplantation surgery to give me the best possible shot at terrific results and I'm thankful for the research that went into developing ATP for hair transplantation.
