    Ok so I've finally hit the 6 month mark since my FUT procedure with Dr Vikram Jayaprakash at the Knudsen Clinic in Melbourne, Australia! Things to note in this update: Density has definitely improved and a big improvement overall. I still think the hairline should be lower, I'll probably have another procedure eventually for the crown and get some more in the hairline as well. Also, if I have another procedure I can get single grafts only as I mentioned in my last update there are a couple of doubles I found. Still using fibres if I go out without a hat on. Hopefully the hair thickens up even more in months 7-12. At the moment I'd say I'm about 6.5/10 on the happiness scale but perhaps I'm just not managing my expectations well enough!

    Looks like clean work mate. Demirsoy is definitely one of the better surgeons in Turkey. Very good idea getting on finasteride, you've still got a lot of hair that you could lose without it!

    Thanks for the reassuring words mate, it's much appreciated.

    Hi guys, Because I'm on a new account now I've created a new thread so that I get all the notifications for it. You can continue following my progress here:

    Hello all, I had a problem with my old account which has prevented me from continuing on my previous thread. If you'd like to follow my journey from the start, you can find the thread here: This is the 5 month update from my 2600 graft FUT procedure with Dr Vikram Jayaprakash at The Knusden Clinic in Mebourne, Australia. This month I haven't noticed as much change as I did from months 3 to 4, but my hair is getting longer which is allowing me to style it and with hair fibres I can get it looking really good now. Finasteride 1mg every other day. 5% Minoxidil foam once, sometimes twice a day. Some things to note this month: Crown is improving so much even without many grafts. I attribute this to fin/min. I found a couple of double grafts in my hairline which was disappointing. There is still a little bit of shock loss right down the bottom of the LHS at the back of my head. Redness in recipient area is completely gone this month. I struggle to find the scar now and can't get a picture of it! I was shaving the back and sides to a #4 but I've let my hair grow this month and actually really like it a bit longer.

    1000 grafts with his good hair characteristics seems about right for such a small area imo.

    Cheers mate! Let's hope so :) Appreciate your input

    Cheers John, It's hard not getting impatient now that it's growing, can't wait for the next few months!

    A few days late but here's my 4 month update pictures! Lots of growth coming through now, I'm excited to have passed the waiting stage and see some improvements every week from now on. As you can see in the photos, it looks better in normal room lighting than harsher lighting as expected. I can use fibres to good effect if I have to now that there's a base of hair to use it on but hopefully in the next couple of months I can stop using them on the front at least.

    I'll be following this one with interest! You don't see many Knusden patients in here, it will be good to see how this turns out
  13. NDAustralia
    You were right about our similar hair characteristics! Almost identical!
  14. NDAustralia
    Will post again at 4 months, hopefully some bigger progress by then!
  15. NDAustralia
    Looking good mate! Great write up
  16. NDAustralia
    Yes that's true but that's why it's even more important to find a reputable surgeon that can estimate where your NW level will progress and also try and slow or halt your regression before getting a HT, especially if you're a young man

    Ok, I'm finally back! Apologies for the delay, as I stated above, there was a problem with my old account so I'll be updating from this one from now on Just past 3 months since my procedure, you can see some pics below. Shock loss on my donor area is slowly growing over finally! I've cut it to a #3 on the back to expose the extent of it as well as to see if I can pull it off yet, which I cannot haha. Hopefully in time the scar is less noticeable, otherwise I'll have to wear my hair a bit longer I suppose. Finally seeing some growth in the hairline and midscalp. I'm looking forward to months 4-6 to see it really take off. Any questions, just fire away!

    Large scale FUE procedures done on young patients where extractions are taken from outside the "safe zone". See these all the time in Turkey

    Hi guys! There was a problem with my account hence the inactivity. I've created this new one to continue my thread now! I'm almost 3.5 months in and I'll get some pics going again soon! Hope this is ok @Melvin-Moderator
