getting4000

Also I use nanogen now, is there any problem putting nanogen on a couple weeks after the transplant to any little existing hair I have?

Thanks all for the info and support. I'm good with waiting on the results just trying to find the best way to conceal it for the few months after. Has anyone tried, just suntanning their face, to keep it the color consistent with the pink head?

Thanks for the info, not sure if I can pull off a hat but I'll look into it!

Holy Crap I'm Nervous! So I finally booked the procedure. I've been suffering from hair loss and hair thinning for over 20 years. I'm 39 I started noticing it in college and for 20 years, I've spent time styling my hair and using different products, concealers to thicken it up. My Fathers and grandfathers are all Norwood 6-7s so I know it's inevitable. I've looked into hair restoration for many years and even met with a Bosley consultant 15 years ago. 3 years ago I met with True/Dorin, and liked them very much because they are close to my location, but didn't like the idea of a strip scar, because I'm a high norwood and I like to keep my hair short. This summer I finally buzzed it all off, and thought I'd keep it shaved, but after a few weeks I realized I didn't like it, my confidence wasn't as high as it was and I decided I wanted "some" hair on my head for the rest of my life. I have never taken meds or used rogaine, I don't like taking meds so I figure I'll have to have 2 large fue sessions to get a decent conservative look that I can keep short. So anyway after much research, 3 consultations and a decision to get it done this year, I finally booked a 2 day 4000+ fue procedure with Dr. Vories for March! Holy Crap I'm nervous. Mostly about not letting anyone find out about it and obviously about what it will look like, how will I style it and how will I deal with the dreaded ugly duckling phase? And also how much more I'll need when the first one is done!. My wife is going with me, my kids will have babysitters and I can stay out of my office for a week or two. Anyway, any words of wisdom for recovery and handling the stress leading up to it would help, I'm excited but really nervous that people will find out. Anyway, thought Id write this bio, I wouldn't have got to this point if it wasn't for this forum so I hope to give back to it somehow, my procedure is in March so I'll post pics, before after etc. then. Thanks for the help!
