  1. 2 month update... nothing to really see here. I'm not noticing any new growth from the transplants, I already had some hair growing in the corners from my previous transplant about 6 years ago. Waiting for month 3+ where things start to pick up, just thought I'd give a quick update!
  2. @ciausYes those pics of the left and right corners were taken at the same time (3-4 months ago). You are completely correct that the appearance of my density changes based on whether I comb straight back or to the side. If I comb to the side, the hairs on the parted side will group up and look thicker. The other side will also get coverage from hairs that are now laid over the top of the transplanted area. And yes, for the next 6 months I'll be practicing my ladies' man strut 🤣. @JohnAC71 I do feel like the appearance of the transplanted areas has fluctuated over the years. Sometimes the left looks better to me and vice versa, maybe these are sheds? I'd also attribute the density of the rest of my hair to being on Dutasteride (~2 years, Fin for about 3 years before that) and Minodixidil (~7 years). I use Nizoral shampoo as well.
  3. Thank you for the kind words! However, you are correct. In certain harsh, overhead lighting it was apparent (at least to me) that the very corners were a bit less dense than I liked. I should have kept better photos over the last 5 years but I do feel like maybe the transplanted area thinned out just a bit... Either way I'm interested to see how the new grafts mix in with the old grafts so I documenting the growth.
  4. First pic: before first transplant circa 2015. Second through fourth pics: 5 years post first surgery. (hopefully that makes sense)
  5. Had some issues with the corners of my hairline when I was about 25, was getting the McDonald's arches over the years. I got about 1200 grafts from Dr. DIep 6 years ago and was blown away with the result. I was slickin' my hair and strutting around like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever. Now, being the perfectionist that I am I just had another 700 grafts put in purely for higher density, the hairline was not changed. Anyways, we'll see how this goes but Dr. Diep always seems to deliver. The guy is definitely in his own league, at least in this part of world.
