So yesterday (March 3) was 4 weeks and today makes a 1 month I don’t know if my grafts are growing or not but I see a whole lot of block dots all over my recipient area. In bright light you can’t see it too well but in the pictures I took you do if you zoom in. I’ll let you guys form your own opinions. Iam noticing my crown alittle thinner idk if it’s just stock loss or not but I guess only time will tell. Talking about shock loss I’m definitely experiencing it under the scar which sucks and I hope my crown and scar recover.

Can you post pictures from before anything

Steve that result is crazy from where you came from. Good shit!

I agree with Sam. is that shockloss around the scar already? I have some too more on one side than the other.

Oh okay, I hear you. Sorry I miss understood what you said. craig, I’m dreaming of a result like yours .. amazing

I know the Kebot doesn’t do the surgery. But its part of the donor management that’s how he tells how many grafts are available to be used. asmed posted a video introducing it on YouTube. i also miss read your post I though you were saying that before his donors were in better condition. But your actually saying the opposite which I don’t agree with.

Yea I think they should get rid of that kebot that analyzes donors. Idk if they had that before or not

Would be nice to know which doctor as well.

He’s consultation fee is $50 but well worth it. I think regardless who you go with in the end, the $50 dollars will be worth it. Doesnt have to be with Dr. Bloxham. I think Are also worth a consultation from in nyc. goodluck.

Yea everything is good. Dr. Bloxham responded and said he’s almost positive that nothing was damaged. Looking at it again my scalp wasn’t cut but looks like it was just a scratch. It looks much better this morning just a red line fading. In the off chance that some damage occurred he said he would fue that part for me. Also he did say that while it might be over kill he does recommend getting a tetanus shot.

I emailed him waiting for a response. I honestly don’t think it’s anything to worry about I just rather it come from him since he has prob seen this happen a lot. or if this happened to anyone else?

Anyone know if this will damage my implanted grafts? I was walking into a building and there was a nail on a hanging piece of wood and I bumped into it. Scratched my head and it bleed for alittle. I want to add I was wearing a hat. What are the chances I messed something up? I’m so pissed...

Hopefully this is an option for me in the future. The work looks very good.

I hope in a month I don’t see it lol.. yes from what I see a white line.

Well even if we say we can get equal amounts from both. Knowing that more grafts will survive from fut should be enough. I think fut is the gold standard because no matter what kind of hair you have or how frágil your grafts are most of them will survive. Some people do have everything going for them and have an amazing result from fue. I wouldn’t gamble on it tho lol. If I was new to this I would prob do a small run of fues to see how they do and If they did good then I would consider it an option. Because who wouldn’t want to get a great result going fue route? The scaring is less noticeable compared to fut.

Yea that’s why I said it was not that dense but I think the procedure went good it put hair where I didn’t have hair before. To say ”fut is not better” doesn’t make sense to me or with the facts of both procedures. The point in having a hair transplant is to have hair on your head. The most reliable way of doing so consistently is through fut. Fut does also allow you to move more hair. Those are facts not opinions. now having scars on the back of your head is a given with both. But I will agree that the strip does limit you from going shorter in the back than fue. I personally think it’s a good trade off. Increase my odds of having a homerun ht (better survival rate and more available grafts) for a scar that I can cover up with smp or fue. you don’t get to choose the size punch they use on you. The doctor is the one that makes that decision that’s why some fue scars are worse than others. An fut will give you more hair in the end and that’s the whole point of getting a hair transplant is to have hair and we always want more ! Irry88 do some more research. Weight in the good and bad from both. Ask for more opinions these are mine but I suggest you take everything into consideration. goodluck

Thanks! he estimated that my second fut procedure would yield around 1700. He did not mention total capacity tho. I guess it’s something I will ask him when I go for my 6 months follow up.

Looks good! How old are you and was this fue or fut?

Exact scenario with me had 1551 grafts fue and my second ht was with bloxham for 1986 grafts fut donor doesn’t look bad, Dr Bloxham did mention it affected how many grafts he could of got from fut obviously since my donor was previously picked through. i have a thread open in my signature with pictures of my scar. I think it looks good. im happy I went with Dr. Bloxham because it was a completely different experience for the good. Not that my first wasn’t a good experience because it was just wasn’t as dense I wanted. I think with Dr. Bloxham he gave me what I wanted (density). only time will tell if I’m happy with the final outcome since I’m barley at 1 month post op. post some pictures if you can and how old are you ?

I’m sure he got such a good result (based on his 6 month update) he doesn’t even care for this forum anymore lol. Would be nice if he updated tho

Congrats cahustler, work looks good!! i think your going to be amazed with this result to be honest. It’s going to change your look for the good. goodluck and keep us posted!

Wow amazing result !

Wow so early and the results look this good. I can’t wait til tou post 6 months ! congrats!

I think it looks good theyutube6

19 days post op: What’s up everyone wanted to upload some pictures for you guys and give some updates on how everything is going All Hairs have shed and I’m seeing black dots which is hair growing I know it’s too early for it to start growing. Kinda weird like the hairs just broke but are still growing. (Not everywhere) Pain/discomfort is completely gone to be honest with the ocasional sting once in a blue. Above the scar to the crown is alittle numb still but I feel like everyday that passes is a big improvement. Looks like I have alittle shock loss at the bottom of the scar which sucks but I do see hairs there they are just see through idk it’s weird. Kinda want it to grow already so the scar is not visible. I have a decent amount of hair in the front so I know with caboki I can mask having had a procedure once it gets alittle longer. *question I have about fut scar if anyone knows* 1. Is there anyway scars can stretch this far out (3weeks)? 2. When is it safe to say that the chances of a scar stretching is over? 3. When does scar stretching typically happen? 1st week? 2 weeks? 4. How long does shock loss around the scar take to go away?
