Hello Everyone, I initially posted this in the FUE forum and tried to figure out how to repost it in this area but was unable to do so. I wanted to share my photos of my transplant. I am currently 5 months and 3 weeks out from a 2700 FUE transplant session in Toronto, Ontario. I will keep the surgeon and clinic to myself for now. I am at the stage where I have begun to worry that my transplant has not worked out the way I had hoped. However, I also know that 5 months and 3 weeks is still extremely early.
You can see from my pre-op photo that I had a pretty bad hairline. I have posted photos of right after the scabs fell off , just before the shed. it was very hard seeing myself like this because I was so happy with what I saw. And then one day... its all gone lol.
I am hoping in the coming months to see some real improvements. Apparently the 6 month mark is where a lot of people start to see the most growth. Wanted peoples input on their experiences to help set my mind at ease lol.
I received roughly 2200 grafts in the frontal part of my hairline and about 500 in the crown. I plan to do another procedure after I get married in 2019 to add some density to the front (if needed) but to mostly fill out the back. I was told by the surgeon that 500 grafts will make only a minimal cosmetic change, but it was one I was willing to live with for now.
I also received PRP treatment and currently use minoxidil 5% and Nizoral 2%.
