  1. First couple or indoor lighting and last one is outdoor. I still use a tad bit of toppik, but overall I'm very happy with the results. If I don't use any toppik, at night no one can tell, but during the day it's still a little thin. Highly recommend doing this procedure for those who are on the fence, just research a good doctor and you'll be fine. Peace and love to all.
  2. No product at all. Dry Hair. Direct sunlight. -Let me know your thoughts.
  3. GREAT results. Do you have any pre op pictures before any of the transplants, one or two. Also, I have a very similar case with regards to your hair quality, but have had 3,000 grafts only in the front. I'm hoping I get at least 75% of your coverage.
  4. Healing nicely and just wanted to show a quick pic. I'll continue to document every month moving forward.
  5. Very nicely done. Just had mine done with him 8 days ago.
  6. Thanks for your comment. I plan on getting a haircut as soon as everything heals up (which i was told should be two weeks post op??) The funny thing is I literally just ordered dermmatch last night in preparation for my recovery haha. Also, congrats on your 4th procedure, happy growing
  7. Not much change, but I just want to document as much as possible for myself and others. Very low light. I'll probably check in again after the NEW YEAR and after my first hair cut in a couple weeks. Would love to hear your honest thoughts/feedback and I'm not a sensitive person at all ,so please don't beat around the bush if you think it was a poor job.
  8. ALso, here's my donor area day 5. Strip is healing nicely. I have pretty course hair so I'm hoping I have a few thousand more grafts they can yank out down the line.
  9. Recovery is going well, thanks. No pain, and the the grafts seem to be in good shape too. Although, I am not too pleased with the density. I Really wish the grafts would have been packed closer together with less surface area. I outlined the area in red with what I should have had the doctor do, instead of spreading them back further. Other picture is day 5 post op with low light. My previous transplanted hair, which was 1000 grafts, weren't shaven down completely for the surgery, just trimmed. Let me know your thoughts, would be much appreciated.
  10. Johnny, my brother, your hair looks very good man. I realize you've had two transplants, as I have, and I was in your same position analyzing every single day, checking the mirror, etc.... It does nothing good. Believe me! We as humans are the most critical of ourselves, however, when you become a little too obsessed about the results it is an unhealthy obsession. I am a very honest and blunt person, and would have no problem telling you that you didn't have a good result, but the reality is you have a great result. A few things I'd suggest is to grow your hair out more! It would look much better, that's just pure fact. What's the point of having a hair transplant if you can't grow it and STYLE it nicely. Maybe you just like the buzzed look, which I can respect, but I think with a nice length and a fresh cut, you will be amazed at the difference. I wish you the best brother, and again, I hate to see anyone in this world so down and depressed about something that they really shouldn't have reason for.
  11. Absolutely great tip Croatia, I only pop in the sunlight for a few seconds, snap the pic, and then go back to my dungeon lol. Quick question if anyone reading knows. How soon before I can use Toppik? I was told 10 days should be fine in the recipient area, but that makes me a bit nervous? THoughts??
  12. Excellent density and thanks for sharing. I'm sure you will have fantastic results! I am 4 days post op myself with Dr. meshkin. A tad regretful I didn't push for more grafts to ensure density but it is what it is. Can you let me know your cost? Feel free to check my thread and comment as well. Happy growing!
  13. I don't think he did it so that I would come back. He's just a conservative doctor which I can appreciate. Regardless, my crown is thinning so I'll need another one down the line and that's when I'll also pack the front again. Currently on day 4 and healing nicely. Pic below from today in direct sunlight. Let me know your thoughts. I think I'll need another 1k in the front to ensure density.
  14. Pics in sunlight from today. MAKE THE ITCHING STOP PLEASE LOL Opinions welcome!
  15. Do you have pre op and post op pics from your first surgery with meshkin?
