Theres is nothing you can do about the skin, youre going to have to accept youre skin will be disfigured for life and to just be happy about with what you have. No one else would see it or care about it besides you anyhow. like everyone says it looks fine

Or just call a few local news outlets. They live for negative stories.

Would suck he would have to be plastered all over tv. And leaves a bad stain to HT clinics everywhere

If youre thinking about getting a HT

Here's the answer

Probably the best money you will spend if everything goes right

Shouldn't the redness be beneficial as the blood supply to the scalp is helping the hairs grow during the 3rd and 4th months, so a few weeks would not probably help a out

Wait, is this 2500 grafts? How is it that some docs can get good results with 2500 grafts on a nw 5, while other docs use 2500 grafts on a nw 2 with pretty much the same density and results

Welcome to this community. Here's the deal.

 

This may very well be tough to hear however IMHO you really should not be doing any HT surgery based on your own words (goals and expectations) and certainly the photos tell all.

 

You are still pretty young and your donor area appears very unstable. There is a fair amount of thinning and diffusion going on. So whether you were to have FUE or FUHT, the donor hair would no doubt not last.

 

You also show signs of retro-grade alopecia, meaning there are visible signs of thinning from the base of your neck upward.

 

Any honest doctor would inform you that you are really not a candidate for HT surgery. Be careful because there are plenty of doctors that would go ahead and do anything you ask to have done...:rolleyes:

 

Sorry, this is probably not something you wanted to hear but better someone talk straight and honest with you upfront before having anything done right?

Would beard/sideburn donor grafts be possible? Seems to be pretty thick on him.

Hi, so I'll start by saying that I'm booked for surgery with a recommended/coalition surgeon from this site.

 

I was originally booked to start surgery at 9am in the morning, but my appointment time was changed to 2:30 in the afternoon to start with getting blood tests and presumably starting surgery at 3:00pm.

Should I be slightly worried? It makes it sound like the surgeon is operating on 2 people in the same day, or I might end up getting a different surgeon, since it seems like it a lot of work for the same surgeon for one day...

 

Sorry for the dumb thread, but it's made me slightly worried and paranoid.

Yeah that does seem strange, I know I had a procedure for around 1500 from 8am to 6pm (with a small consultation, hairline drawing, paper filling and breaks in between, etc) but for FUE, I'm not sure how much quicker is FUT for that amount though

Yeah your forehead looks wider, which is why the sides of your hair, the temple points should be filled. Try to use dermatch and see if you can draw in a better style until you figure out what you feel is right

Best thing to use that can remove scabs and white flakes on scalp are those baby scalp scrub sponges, search them on amazon

Anothe pic

Your temple points here seem pretty thin and out of shape.Idk tho the pic is a bit blurry

If miniaturized native hairs haven't shed during 1-2months post fue , what does this mean? as I think I heard it is supposed to cause shockloss shed or something.

What I did is get two pillows and the use a neck pillow to keep the head at an angle, no swelling but blood stains on the neck pillow, I forgot to add a cotton wrap

Thats a nice list home1212. I am also using some of the same, plus nizoral and head and shoulders.

I plan on using rogaine foam only after and I am between a nw 2-3. Does anyone know if it will be ok to use minox for a couple of months just to spur growth more quickly then get off it a year, or should I just let growth happen naturally

Looks more like a class 1.5-2 norwood hairloss.

Hey guys, what medications did you use after fue or fut, what pattern were you and did it help with the procedure? Made a poll

Thanks Gillenator.

How much blood are we talking about? I think mine did look like a small stream of blood pouring out but it didnt have a hair on it earlier so not sure if I popped the graft fat instead and not puss

First 4 days its still numb so the pain for me felt like a 2/10

I'm at the 5th day and I can feel it much more like a 3-4/10 and moreso when I lie on a pillow 5-6/10, I haven't used any pain killers yet

Thats the donor area I'm talking about, the recipient area has been pain free 0/10

I noticed a small whitehead near the grafts but it didnt have a hair on it, so I drained it and the puss came out but so did some blood immediately after. Did I just lose a graft?
