  1. I think I'm experiencing the same thing as you. Maybe you can make them out if you zoom in on this photo
  2. 2 MONTHS Hey guys, it's been two months now since I had my surgery. Still a bit red but it's slowly fading. Also I think I am starting to see the first stages of some growth! You can only really see this with flash and zooming in but it is looking promising in a previously fully bald area Also if a moderator reads this, please check my report on this thread thanks
  3. Your donor area doesn't look too bad to me. I can see why you're bothered by it but it will look normal to the average person. The only bit that might catch somebody's eye is the patch above the ear. Best of luck with it mate, this is definitely fixable IMO
  4. Glad it went well for you! Do you have a thread anywhere with some pics?
  5. Hey mate, no the yellow stuff was not normal. I had to use antiseptic to control it. However I have a naturally oily scalp and I think the sebum that is produced is yellow so it could have been that too. I'll post the month 2 photos in a week's time but they are not exciting yet 😁
  6. Hey mate, I was there 10 days after you. Hope it's going well! Do you have any updates on yours? If you're like me then I'm guessing they have all fallen out for now 😅
  7. I've been taking it for about 6 months now I think, no issues. I also took it for 18 months a while back with no issues but stopped because I shaved my head and thought it looked ok
  8. Makes sense to me, I've seen some amazing results from him. I was just curious about the reason why he does it that way thanks!
  9. Hey mate, looks good! Did Dr. Diep say why he only extracted from that area of your head? Normally I see surgeons extract lower down and expand round the sides of the head. Is it because you only had 1300 grafts and he is planning for any future procedures you may need? Good luck with the growing
  10. As far as I understand... Yes it can cause shock loss to the native hairs around the transplanted area. Finasteride will help reduce shock loss. If the native hairs are already thin due to miniaturisation then it's possible that they will be permanently lost, but they were dying anyway.
  11. Next time you go I'd recommend taking a picture of what you want 😂
  12. Hey mate, I think if you got a low taper then the back and sides will look better
  13. Thanks for your comment. I am only 25 but I am taking finasteride
  14. 1 MONTH Pretty much all of the transplanted hairs have now shed, just a waiting game now I'm excited for the redness to go
  15. The hair will be permanent, as long as you were destined to keep the hair on the back of your head. A lot of people thin out over the back of their head very late in life but chances are you will retain most of the transplanted hairs throughout your life
  16. I think all of us who have transplants hope that our sides don't drop to leave a gap
  17. That's impressive! It's hard to find results where body hair has been used. I found this video which shows the before a little better
  18. Hey mate, looks good! I notice you said you use aloe vera gel to help with the dryness. I am 17 days in and my recipient area is looking a bit dandruffy/flaky. Do you think this will help me? Were you flaking at 17 days? Thanks!
  19. Glad to hear it is going well! I will keep this thread up to date every month Haha I wasn't expecting the food to be so good
  20. Hey mate, I have just got around to posting my thread. I am happy so far thank you
  21. DAY 14 2 weeks since the procedure and things are coming along nicely. I still have a lot of redness but I was told that redness can take a long time to disappear on pale skin. And here is a bonus low quality snapchat front facing camera picture where it looks completely normal
  22. DAY 8-10 It is finally time to remove the scabs! Over day 8 and 9 I was moisturising my hair in the shower and working off the easy scabs with a very soft toothbrush. They came off very easily and left most of the hair behind. I can't tell you how good it felt to remove the scabs. I also got the clear to sleep however I like now as well.
  23. DAY 7 Not much has changed, all the scabs are gone from the donor area and there is no more itching. It is very slightly tender. The recipient is similar, a couple from cracks in the scabs.
