Yes, it was my first ( and hopefully only) transplant. I'm a female and had experienced frontal hair loss following the births of my children in my 30's. I could hide it with bangs but well, when the wind blew.....I always was self conscious that people could tell. I have been reading this site and researching for well over a year. It was actually your VERY detailed account of your first transplant with Dr. Cooley that made me really consider him. So thank you very much! I consulted first with Lollie and then Ailene. I believe I just about drove them crazy with all my emails, calls and questions. I also was adamant about talking with Dr. Cooley as well during the consulting phase. I'm from up north, so I had to travel quite a distance away from my family....another reason I was beyond nervous.
I'm only 2 days post surgery and still spraying every hour and using the Saran Wrap covering. It's been interesting trying to keep this secret from my kids who are wondering why I'm wearing a hat ALL the time since I've been home. I told them I'm trying a special hair treatment and my head needs to stay covered to allow it to work. Wouldn't want them telling all their friends that their mom got hair transplants!
Good luck with your recent surgery and I hope it grows in as well as it did the first time! Again, thank you for sharing your story on this forum.
