  1. I am a 22 yr old female who had a hair transplant to lower my hair line. Im exactly at 2 months n 1 week, however I am not experiencing any hair loss of my REGULAR hair that existed post hair transplant, instead I have great results and the hair directly above my eyes mid/top forehead is growing. Its far to early to see any results. Aside from the small patch of new hair growth I have a long way to go. But women, don't be scared to get one. Even at this point I'm soo happy i got it! and to D. Correll, it WILL get better. Your at a very awkward stage right now, it is COMPLETELY normal, this complaint is VERRRY common and you WILL get much more growth. =)
  2. Hi, I'm a 22 year old female, who had a hair transplant procedure Nov. 25th, 2009 by Dr. Parsa Mohebi of US Hair Restoration. This was my experience: 7:15 am: I walk in and am greeted by some of his staff. Everyone is extremely calm, friendly, and knowledgeable. 7:50am: I go in and talk with Dr. Mohebi about my goals, we review some pictures of my current hairline, and he gives me 2 anti biotic immune booster pills along with a valium. 8:10am: I am feeling really good now. =) I walk into the room in which my procedure will be done. I am given one shot in my right arm that will aid in reducing inflammation (a corticosteriod im guessing). It was painless. Then the back of my hair is pulled up and my hair is shaved. They draw the line for the donor area and give me about 7 to 10 shots of local anesthesia. They used a vibrating massage device while injecting the shots and it really makes the shot injection painless. 8:30am: The donor area is removed easily and taken for dissection. I didn't feel anything, but one minor pinch from the blade, but the dr. quickly localized that area immediately. Then they stitched it up using dissolvable stitches. (at my request). =) 8:45 to 10:30am: I am sitting watching a movie, HITCH, enjoying myself. The Dr. starts making the microscopic incisions in the front of my head. Virtually painless, again, except for around my temple area. It is important to note that I was not experiencing PAIN in my temple area, just discomfort from the pressure on it. 12am: The Dr. just about finished with all the little punctures and it was lunch time. I was served an AMAZING lunch along with my bf who joined me. <3 12:45am: The technicians started putting the dissected grafts into the slits. This took about 5.5 hrs. We ended around 6:30 or 7pm. I watched two more movies. The attention I got was amazing. I was catered to hand and foot with anything from food, to drinks, to movies. The whole staff knew exactly what they were doing, no questions were asked and the whole staff was great company. 6:30pm: we wrapped things up and post op pictures were taken. Parsa Mohebi was a great dr, w/ a great bedside manner. He conducted research over at Johns Hopkins which is a leading medical school in the US, he worked under Dr. William Rassman who is the HT Guru and performed alot of his surgeries, and he did residency in New mexico, among other states. He also gives free consultations which leads me to believe he is not wholey about money.
  3. when is it alright to sleep on my grafts. I have been sleeping slightly elevated and on my back for 6 nights now. Im getting fairly tired of it. I would DIE to sleep on my side, but im nervous bc i have grafts on my temples..and if i lay I them I fear i may dislodge them. when is it ok to sleep on them?!
  4. has anyone else's HT dr. put them on prednisone. if they do, DONT DO IT! For the last three days I've felt like Im on a tranquilizer. It's giving me disorientation, dizziness, light headedness, i cant focus or concentrate, and i feel like I'm floating around unable to concentrate on one thing or one thought. I stopped taking them 3 days ago and the effects are still here. I feel like im out of my own body. ughh its horrible. has anyone else had these side effects?

  7. thank you bill. =) out of curiosity, if they have popped out a little bit, what would be done?
  8. Hello, my name kelli, im 21 and i just had a hair transplant yesterday. I was told that i did not have alot of subcutaneous/fatty tissue on my scalp and therefore it was difficult to insert the follicles and to give them something to adhere 2. Any woo, I went to Dr. Parsa Mohebi, whom I was extremely impressed with. he told me that the hair would still take. A day after surgery i have quite a few little FOLLICLES sticking out of my skin. Not just the hair, a small portion to haf ( on some) of the follicle is sticking out of my epidermis. Has this happened to anyone else??? Will my hair still take. Im worried they are all going to pop our or something. =/please help!
