Mind blowing I know

@BoldnotBald..hi thanks for the nice comments.. Re the planning strategy you enquired about i took comfort in my decision that i arrived at one of the very best clinics globally for my advanced stage of hair loss and decided to implicitly trust their expertise in planning and design.. Both Dr Arika and Dr Sethi examined my donor where I was pleasantly surprised that they described it as " good"..as I was refused as a candidate previously by Fargo Clinic Manchester... Dr Andre Nel in Dublin Ireland also consulted with me October 2019 where he found that if he were lucky he good achieve a max of 3500 grafts obtained through a FUT / FUE / BHT combination...the only way possible to achieve the 3500 grafts due to " below average " donor is his view .. Dr Arika advised me that I have 2000 scalp grafts available for another procedure for added density/ crown work should I want a second pass .... Hope this helps Z

Hi Sla ...thank you ....no none whatsoever...I'm delighted to report I'm seeing thickening of misdcalp and crown areas even since last HRN update ...consistent with what the docs said..expect further improvements from midcscalp and crown up to around 18 months..

BHT has brought the "not worth the hassle getting a HT as a NW6/7" brigade back on board as viable candidates... If you buy into a 2 pass strategy then you will be most likely delighted with your decision to have hair restoration no matter how bald you were starting out...scalp/beard donor allowing that is...

Thanks...its not something I've ruled out yet ...

Thanks Melvin..I agree it still looks great in certain lighting situations even without the use of fibres .. My 12 month update was given with newly cut top to about 2.5 inches and direct daylight through window for added transparency.. At the sweet spot of around 4 inches on top and normal room lighting it would of looked a few degrees more impressive for sure I would of happily settled for a result like I have now if this what was promised ...no question .. Hope you're keeping safe and well . Z

@Fluffhead...happy new year to you . .always such no BS feedback

Will do and thanks

Thank you ...I sense SMP is getting better and better ...I wish you all the best on your journey Z

Hi Guys Hope everyone had a peaceful and happy Christmas....I’m a Week late with the 12 month update but Christmas kinda got in the way 😊 I had a grade 2 shave at back and sides 23 Dec and about an inch of the length on top ..I’m very happy how things have panned out however I am relying on fibres to give me some extra coverage mid scalp and crown ..just a very little sprinkling .. A couple of take aways from the 12 month pics attached -I’ve definitely been on the receiving end of some harsh anagen desynchronisation and whether I’ll regain some or all of the lost hair is still an unknown I guess - I’ll definitely be revisiting the team towards the end of next year to fill in the mid scalp / side part area and crown - and absolutely was the correct decision as a NW6/7 to go ahead and have the procedure ...as I may of mentioned before ..you restore much more than just your hair when you go ahead and decide to have a HT.. choose your Operating team very carefully .. im hopeful of still further slight improvements throughout the next 6 months ...to lead me into final procedure number 2.... have a great and safe 2021 guys and a sincere thanks to all the supportive comments throughout our journey together.. Z

Is envy one of the seven deadly sins?? Thou shalt not covet thy comrades hairline 😊😊 Enjoy the ridiculously good mane mate Z

Just thought I’d give you all a quick peek Of how finasteride was used in my treatment to try and help fill in the very lower horseshoe ... below the line was not transplanted into...

I see DUPA here ... Best trim your hair short and get on with your life would be my advice... No man "needs" a HT ... Good luck in whatever decision you make

The Muresanus seem like the Hasson&Wong mega FUT of mainland Europe ... I'm not a fan of FUT but if linear scar didn't bother me ..I think I'd be heading Switzerland direction .. Your 12 month update should be awesome judging by how things are panning out ..

👌

I'll be very interested observer of your SMP procedure @mustang When do you plan on having it done ?

Will do sir 😊

To all high norwoods ..my advice would be always try and have some of your available grafts placed within the crown area to allow fibres to have something to grab on to .. pointless leaving the crown untouched if you plan on having concealers as part of your arsenal light sprinkling of fibres into crown in pic attached.

@Baboon..their you go 🙂

Hi All just passed 11 months ..only one more month before we reach final conclusion ..I’m still of the view I lost hair around the 9 month mark consistent with suffering a touch of anagen desynchronisation..however I’m still very happy how things have panned out as I’m fully embracing a light sprinkling of fibres for the crown and side part when out and about etc ... myself and @lookingforhtplanning on a second pass end of next year ...we want to enjoy what we have throughout spring / summer 2021 without having to cover up in sun etc once again .. hope everyone keeping well out there .. Z

@JohnBob..Hi there ...it’s very simple ..finasteride...it’s done wonders for my donor ...

Ah guys c'mon The dogs on the street can see that's a rug on Kerry .. You could spot that rug before he even entered a room.

Thanks @Portugal25... So 18 k via FUT 30k via FUE most probably over 2 surgeries... Food for thought alright

Just curious...what type of dough is 8000 grafts at H&W ...in the neighbourhood of 30K ?? Theyre the Big Daddy of mega FUT for sure ....but that's a big number
