    @Melvin-Moderator Maybe its just the angle but my forehead looks just very big. My corners are definitely receded a bit. I planned on lowering the hair line as well and I was going to ask Diep's opinion on whether or not my temples should be touched because i think if I don't it will make my forehead look quite wide if i just lower the hairline. I think my case is very similar to @bondi's thread which his progress was incredible with Dr. Diep.

    HEY everyone! Just to update I will be having my procedure in 3 days with Dr. Diep wow i am so excited AND nervous at the same time! I will be starting a new thread so you can all follow as i document my journey. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I tried making a check list for things to consider the day of right before we go into the procedure itself. - Taking grafts from both sides of the donor to prevent any possible bald patches or thinness in the donor area - Asking for a densely packed hairline in the hopes of being one and done. (Currently have been on finasteride for 7 months now) If theres any other advice or suggestions you guys can give for me it would be greatly appreciated! I am quite nervous xD. To those who have had a procedure with Dr. Diep before is there anything i should prepare for or expect on surgery day? Thanks again!

    Hi all i couldn't find any information on this matter but this is just a general question as I have my FUE appointment with Dr. Diep next week. But Will having some pimples near my hairline area effect the implantation to the recipient area during my FUE? For example, are grafts able to be physically implanted wear a pimple or acne may be? I have like just 2 active pimples right now near my hairline area that wasn't going away in time XD.

    @baldlivesmatter correct me if im wrong, but it looks like your 4 month growth progress with diep is already looks like it's even 15-20% more dense than your 9 month pics with Dr. Harris?

    @elduterino that actually makes a lot of sense eating leafy vegetables since they are high in vitamin K your blood will be thicker and therefore less bleeding will occur. I will actually probably do this a few days prior to my procedure to reduce bleeding. What is the science behind calcium supplementation though?

    Hello everyone, I have my scheduled Dr. Diep FUE appointment in 1 week. I Was told to stop taking biotin 7 days prior to procedure and 3 days after the surgery. Any idea why this is the case? However, I'm still allowed to take my Finasteride 1 mg as normal

    Hi guys, excited and nervous to have my FUE procedure with Dr. Diep in about 3 weeks. I am estimated about 1500-2000 grafts just to lower my hairline. I just had a question if anyone has had any experience or knowledge about shaving the entire head prior to procedure versus shaving just the donor areas prior to procedure and leaving the hair on top long to hide any observation of a transplant being done. Is there any benefit to shaving the entire head prior to the procedure? For example would it be easier to clean and manage the recipient area post op for better results due to not having to maintain the native hair as much? Or is there a benefit that implanting into the recipient area with a fully shaved head? Or is it okay to just shave the donor areas and leave the top long like some people do?

    curious, how many days post op was this pic taken?
  11. shookwon33

    Does anyone see the pictures of the OP on this post at all they're all appearing blank for me
  22. shookwon33
    yes that looks quite fantastic at 2 months post-op. 0_0

    your donor looks untouched lol. I don't think you need to be worrying about the extraction of just the right side anymore. Do you have any pics you can take of your donor from the back currently from different angles?
  24. shookwon33
    yep just hair trying to push through. leave them be
  25. shookwon33
    Again, donor looking better and better every single day. Everything seems to be falling in place for you. Really appreciate the daily updates man! We are here with you on your journey
