Hi I'm 3 months in. Had circa 3K done, was given buzzcut Was told to be careful about haircut. Currently thinking to go out hobomode until 6 months mark and have proper haircut Or even at 6 months mark I will need to be careful? Not sure if live ever returns to normal or I always have to be careful

Hey, man. Thanks so much for the comment. Not sure if it's the quality, as I was in the uni and rushed the pic a bit. It's not the red spots which I'm talking about but the clinic specialist said the area in general is red.

Saw the clinic today and while it is not critical I was advised to massage the scalp more thoroughly, as well as increasing the number of washes Personally, it doesn't seem so bad and I had trouble understanding if this is much of a concern. Initially I was thinking that I am experiencing faster recovery than usual due to a younger age but now not sure what's the verdict Attaching imagery just in case What's your experience in regards to redness?

When touching it feels sharp like new hair but not sure how since this not donor or recipient

Hi. Image attached. Almost 3 months post circa 2750 FUE. Ex NW 2.5, no crown Wore headphones and saw this after. Am I going bald? Ayy, just covered the front densely and now this Excuse WC but it's almost 2 am here, I'm tired after working on song and now I get this

Just under 3 months update Seeing the doc next week, most likely jumping on Mino after

Personally, ugly duckling phase doesn't help at all If I had to give numbers, using realistically subjective scale, before I had success with 6-7 women, now even some 5s are showing unresponsiveness and I notice chubby girls giving me the you know what eyes. Not sure if this because of the dry spell but didn't notice it from them before Not that I did HT only to impress women but it will be funny when in like 3-6 months I start looking more presentable and this will all change. How I know? When I was almost 100 kgs during bulking and had a long beard I remember similar experience where I stayed single. When I went down to 65-70 and shaved beard life had a U turn (back to normal) Just venting out. Not that I blame girls for not liking a guy who looks like a homeless because no haircut for 3 months and uneven growth but still sucks What it did help is work on my character as to push myself past my physical appearance. Not so bad takeaway in end

Thanks all for support. I guess this is why we are here and some stay here for longer because such a procedure can truly be life changing Funnily enough I stopped checking the growth progress on a daily basis, just continuing the necessary maintenance. Like someone mentioned, maybe this is not depression but rather the impatience to see the final result. Oh well, seems like this feeling of mystery will only allow us to appreciate it more Finally I guess it's important to note, only go with reputable clinics so that all the time waiting will not be for nothing

Thanks! Finally that special shampoo also helped with the face. I also use some moisturizer. Both twice per day (hair only once and no moisturizer there LOL) In case this will help somebody. Seems that it's a problem during colder months when skin starts to crack after a warm shower

Hey guys thanks all for replies. The scalp seems to be fine now I am suffering from hay fever allergy suspectedly due to pollen and my facial skin now is struggling instead, maybe there's a connection. Usually I experience some allergy and skin issues every winter but now it seems worse I am seeing an allergologist soon and then if needed dermatologist This is a hair forum but it sucks that with so much effort put in like the hair now all these unrelated complications arise Gotta blame the poor genetics, since I take care of myself

I'm at about 2.5 months post 2750 FUE and despite thinking that I am experiencing expedited growth due to my age (25) I am feeling somewhat depressed Not sure how long this stage should last but personally it is somewhat sad to see myself worse than before the procedure (Norwood 2-3) I have no doubt in the clinic but it is the time which sucks There's a lot of things to worry about in life and despite being informed that the hair needs plenty of time to grow out it is still somewhat unappealing to be waiting so long for it to come back Just sucks that the life is somewhat short and a substantial amount of it is now just a waiting game stopping myself from certain pleasures

Currently, I am just two months over. I was Norwood 2.5-3 before and currently it just looks like garbage. While I don't mind to wait longer, I am curious as to when you guys have had you first haircut? I am aware of the scissors-only aspect but just curious on how long everyone waited.

Seen the Jefe yesterday, all seems good for the second month Attaching image - how evident is the contrast? Limited amount of people have asked me so far but noticed some stares in my temples when people close by Does it get worse, will people start to tell me that they see growth in bald areas and I'll need to act surprised?

No other possible goals, he wants everything - front and back. If a reputable doctor has suggested this, by identifying that the donor is sufficient for the first and upcoming procedures, you want a second professional opinion. I suppose no dense packing Given the young age and family history, more loss will come. Attempt first to stabilize the loss with medications

Symptoms work out. I will attempt to get hold of a dermatologist soon. In regards to the washing, I'm actually trying to apply moderate force, similar to normal washing before the procedure, as instructed by the clinic. As per the treatment, actually someone has already mentioned Nizoral (not the clinic) but my concern was damaging the grafts. I shall discuss this with the clinic when I go there in just over a week. What I have attempted to do now is to wash the scalp only once per day (with the special antibacterial shampoo provided; down from two - normal rinsing in the morning before); the face I only rinse twice per day now with water and no longer apply the same shampoo in the evenings on it. Also attempted to improve my diet and consume more water. Cheerio!

Also noticing a lot of thin white hairs in the recipient area. My understanding is that they will grow thicker in the future and change their color?

Images attached. Problem area identified in red, recipient area in green (donor is in the back, unseen and not affected). (I am also experiencing some flaking on my face (cheeks, chin and brow ridge).) As instructed by the clinic, shampooing daily (with leaving it on priory for some time) with a special antibacterial product, massaging all of the scalp and giving it a good rinse under the shower. 1.5 months post OP. Any ideas as what could be going on here? My theory is increased blood flow to all of the scalp doing this to the non-affected areas by supplying more resources and causing the surplus to turn into dandruff.

I am 1.5 months post OP but my hair is growing quicker (seems to be due to my younger-than-average-patient's age of 25), with first proper growth spotted at 1 months post OP (verified by the clinic); guess that I can start to compare myself to the ugly ducking phase. Some days I look myself in the mirror and feel super bad, as if the age is getting better of me (at 25, LOL). With determination to improve it doesn't really bother me as much, as I'm looking forward, but if someone saw me especially at this stage and then when the hair grows out it would be a great contrast. Even without this contract I myself feel very weirded out by what I see sometimes and miss myself with more hair on top (even if NW 2.5). It's a waiting game now, looking forward to this stage ending soon and starting to notice even more growth. The current growth now is not visible at a distance much and only when inspecting close in person.

Thanks. I'm opposite - my right eye is slightly slopped (too much sleeping on the right) and the right side is slightly higher. Good job, indeed

On the sides/temples? My left side appears to be about 5 mm higher than the right. I'm still 1.5 months post OP and this represents only about 5% of brow to hairline distance. Should I be concerned? Will it level itself out or be not visible in the grand scheme of things? Tags: uneven hairline

Edit: Identified some hairs which appear thin and thick only at end. In RE white hairs, wasn't able to spot them at this compressed quality (came through WhatsApp)

7 weeks without 1 day update (attached). Skin messed up due to extra blood flow messing up with the pores (or something?) - using antibacterial shampoo on both face and scalp as instructed by the clinic (did help the face at first, guess it would be even worse now without it). What I noticed is my natural hairline is already growing out well. In RE to recipient area, I notice a lot of thin white hairs on photos - not sure if temporary. Also notice some thin hairs with thick like bulbs at the end - looks like they got thin now due to stress.

1. The Scalp Prescription - Liquid Gold Plus Scalp Treatment Shampoo. 2. The Scalp Prescription - Micronutrients Advanced. 3. Scalp Drops Plus 2HA. Can provide a photograph if it will be helpful.

Are the ones offered by the clinic necessary better (post transplant - shampoo, tablets, Minoxidil)? I am based in the south of Eastern Europe and have noticed that most of the stuff is expensive here. Personally, I get stuff online much cheaper (mostly, Amazon). If I get good stuff online, will it necessary be worse than the ones offered by the clinic? I am thinking it's a no but then maybe the clinic knows what's better for me? However, if so, I can still take this knowledge and get it myself? I am talking like 50 Euros per month difference (I am a student). Edit: The ones provided by the clinic seem to have their own label (with the clinic's name). I am not sure if they produce at their own factory.

Hey, thank you. I am going to the clinic only in another 2.5 weeks. Could there be a serious cause for concern with the current situation and if so how would I solve it?
