8 months now but thanks!

Thanks @MC10298 Are you saying that you don’t think enough grafts were packed into the hairline?

Month 8 update. not a huge change from last month- the front still lacks full density as does the crown, but hoping for continued growth. Fingers crossed I get better density over the coming months. Any feedback is greatly appreciated at this stage.

I had over 4500 in one session.(with a recommended surgeon on here)

Hi @JohnAC71 what would you consider a high number in a day for FUE typically seen by the hair mills? thanks

Thank you for the feedback, I appreciate all feedback. Positive or negative. Given the number of grafts I had, I was hoping the very least the Hairline would be reasonably dense. The clinic have advised me that my results are on plan and in line with what they would expect to see at this stage. I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt at this stage, whilst I appreciate some individuals obtain maximum results at circa seven months, I’m totally aware that others take at least 12 before results are seen. I am therefore holding out full judgement until the 12 month stage at least. I am however slightly concerned given the number of patients that are awaiting results at this stage of their journey, all from the same surgeon. Fingers crossed for the next three months, I will endeavour to update the forum and give an honest opinion at each stage of my journey.

Fair point in relation to how we heal as individuals

@Melvin- Moderator It would be great to understand when a donor is classed as over harvested as opposed to patchy?

. Pics?

Months 7 update. would appreciate feedback at this stage. Thanks

Hey @BA-FUE hows the donor looking? keen to understand what they have said in relation to the donor. this picture you shared previously did look like possible over harvested as if shock loss you would have expected this to be gone by month 7

6 month update. Progress is happening- I’ve spoken with the Dr and they advise that most growth usually happens from 6 months onwards so am hoping it now gets really exciting! (Frustrating when you see others with almost full results at 6 months, but I get that everyone is different) Crown is starting to fill in but also appreciative of the fact this takes much longer. I would welcome honest feedback from others as to how it’s progressing- positive or negative. I've attached pics with and without product (just hair gel- no fibres or concealer) to give a full picture as to where I currently am.

Do you have any pre surgery pics and immediately after? That should help give a view on progress. im 5 months post FUE and definitely seeing more growth each day so would have expected some growth at 7 months. and who was the surgeon?

I’m hoping there it lots more to come, nee hairs coming through each day so exciting!

4.5 month update and first proper haircut. Starting to thicken up, now hairs coming through so appear to be on track for 4.5 months?! donor is definitely thinner than pre-surgery, which is to be expected - could this be schlock loss potentially? Or is it too late in the process for that? Thanks

I’m hoping the next few months will bring lots of new hairs - just in time for summer! im not too sure of the distribution in terms of graft count per area. I have uploaded my immediate pre-op pics, so that may give you an idea!

I was waiting until the barbers open till I could get a proper haircut before giving you an update. However since you asked- attached are my four-month pictures. New hairs appear to be popping through every day. I’ve tried to take some close-up pictures so you can see some of the smaller house coming through. Does anyone on here know how long new hairs continue to come through for? (I appreciate that the full result is not visible until 12 months, but I’m keen to know when all of the new hair will have popped through(

That looks really good for only 4 months in

Sounds like I’m about a month away from that point! Did you see lots of new hairs popping through from month 5?

Looks very good. what months did you see the most improvements? I am 3 months and 3 weeks post FUE with the Hair Dr and beginning to see lots of small stubble like hairs starting to come through

I’m currently three months post surgery with Dr Arshad and whilst my final result will not be seen for around nine months, so far so good. I have made a detailed review on this forum. Feel free to read for a full breakdown of how the day went. In terms of the professionalism of everyone involved at the hair doctor and the aftercare, I have nothing but good things to say.They have been absolutely fantastic so far. I would highly recommend

@Melvin-Moderator

I put one up 2 days ago- please see above/ below. not much has changed since then!

Now at 11 weeksGrowing well, hopefully the start of new growth now! I can feel more and more hairs coming through, still feels a little bit like stubble.I can definitely see them better with my naked eye. I wasn’t expecting any real growth until around month 3 or 4 so anything before then is a bonus
