  1. Hello, thought it was time to update. First off, I saw Dr. Wong last October to review my results. He thought that some areas were lacking, and that we should add some more grafts. Credit to Dr. Wong, he suggested doing more grafts without me requesting it, and the clinic added 474 additional grafts on January 25. I didn’t pay for the extra work. We did stick and poke (or whatever it’s called) this time, so they didn’t have to shave my entire head, which was awesome! I haven’t noticed any changes, but it was a small operation, and it has been two months. I have attached several photos of the end result of my hair transplant, which I was happy with overall, taken in various lighting conditions and from different angles. The last one was taken today.
  2. Hey y’all. Sorry for the delay. Here is the update. Overall I’m happy with it! There are a few areas that could use some refinement (couple spots didn’t grow in that well), and I don’t think this transplant is making it into Hasson & Wong’s ad material. But I look better than before, and most people in my life comment that they couldn’t tell I got anything done… which is what I was hoping for! Haha (Hairdressers we’re closed for a while— hair got really crazy for a couple months!!) Month 6: month 7 (don’t know why upside down) month 8: Month 10-ish (got a haircut!!): sorry some of these are upside down. Dunno what’s up with that. Also, apologies for the delay in posting. I got anxious about whether things were coming along at the right pace and decided to avoid the forum for a bit. I have more shots that I can post later. overall, happy I made the decision to do this!
  3. Thanks for the wisdom and encouragement! :) I haven't been dwelling on it. The worst that could happen is a lot worse than the worst that could happen, when factoring in all things. Hahaha I feel like this is very true!
  4. Not long at all, actually! I went to the clinic pre-pandemic, in January. I signed up for the surgery in February, and the gentleman I consulted with offered me an spot in March. I told them I wanted to do during the summer and they had lots of availability (but they also weren’t taking international patients at the time.) I am local Vancouver resident though, so that may have something to do with it. cheers bro!
  5. Hey hair transplant bros, gals and non-binary friends. Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and cheers! I apologize for taking so damn long to update. Past few months have been very busy. sadly, I am not where I hoped to be at this point re: hair growth. However, I will continue to be patient and remain optimistic. (I am, admittedly, very nervous at this point.) Lots of new hairs popping up, though, and lots of new zits! Weird to be happy about pimples on my head, but that is where we’re at hahaha. Even if I have a poor yield, I gotta say, I am very happy with how dr. Wong and co Implanted the hairs. Love the hairline, and at least everything is growing in the right direction. Cheers to all of y’all, and hope you are all doing well in these crazy ass times. If things are not going well, please PM me. I have a bit more free time to pay close attention to my inbox and we all gotta look out for one another right now.
  6. Hope so! Re: donor area. All the extractions were done by Dr. Wong’s assistant so gotta give her the credit there. Very chill Romanian woman, was very patient with me while I drooled in her lap, passed out a few times and breathed through my mouth. (Side note: eat a big breakfast folks! That tiny 2.5 mg Valium wouldn’t do shit for me on a normal day, but taking it at 7 AM on a relatively empty stomach fucked me up!) One thing I rly admired about Dr. Wong is that he consulted w/ his assistants thoroughly, asked them for their opinions, took them seriously. There was really no ego there. Seemed like a lot of trust between the team members and that they just wanted to do a good job together!
  7. Thanks for shooting me a link. Looks like you healed up really well bro!! Hope your progress continues to be excellent.
  8. Aw :(. Sorry to hear that bro. Where you at? When were you originally scheduled for? It’s hard to get a read on when the border will reopen. Most Canadians are fervently anti-reopening so I can’t see it happening any time soon. I don’t think there will be much difference between the Covid numbers here vs USA per capita. We’ve kinda reopened most things and are crossing our fingers as numbers rise. I foresee another lockdown around November. This really is the shits, for everybody. Hope that we get this bastard under control soon so people can stay outta the ICU and you can venture up here for your surgery!
  9. Thanks bud! I am currently living in Vancouver so H&W was first choice just cause of convenience. Was surprised to learn that there was an esteemed clinic right in my backyard!
  10. Thanks for the insight bro! Glad to hear you’re making good progress. Would love to see if you can post a link. I am optimistic that I will be able to feel comfortable going out w/out a hat in 3-4 months. Fortunately I can stay capped for work right now, but it isn’t the most comfortable. Shaving my head/seeing these photos definitely reveals just how much hair I have lost! Real eye-opener. My curly hair definitely conceals just how mad bald I am hahaha
  11. Back of my head: About 10-14 days: Current (One month and one week):
  12. Hey everybody. Hope y’all are doing well in COVID-19 times. So I went ahead and did a hair transplant. Thought I’d post my results as the months go along. I lurked this forum for a while before deciding to get my scalp harvested. I appreciated the honest feedback/recommendations here so I thought I’d make a post so others with similar level of baldness/hair type can get an idea of what to expect with the # of grafts I got. I’ll update as things progress. Details: -31 years old -Had the surgery on 17/08/2020 - Started finasteride 8 months before FUE. Seemed to slow things down as I was losing a shit-ton of hair before starting it and ... that stopped once I started. (Still taking it, not using min or Nizoral... fin seems to have had the opposite effect that a lot of guys report. Dunno why but that’s neither here nor there.) - not using hair concealer Photos aren’t the greatest. I’m taking photos under the harshest light I can find in the moment. I’ll post photos from the clinic if/when I receive them! If anyone has questions about the clinic, procedure, aftermath, whatever, I’m happy to answer. I was pretty freaked out before I did the deed, and am still pretty anxious (but hopeful) about the end result. Take care errybody! Pre-transplant, taken the morning of the surgery: Right after surgery: Six days after surgery:
