Haha, I am not kidding, actually using Blumaan his styling product. It's called Cavalier Clay.

I will read it Melvin!

Here in the Netherlands, most of us know (if you are read up on hair transplants) that Dr. Gho is selling bullshit. I even know someone who was treated at (at an absurd cost). Result: terrible, so bad I've never seen it. Do not go there! That email makes me so angry, claims are being made that are not (or cannot be) fulfilled.

It helped I started finasteride at 19 years old. I am 36 now. Thanks guys, your postive feedback is really encouraging, I am over critical (litterly searching for every little flaw).

@JohnAC71 at 6,5 months.

And this is with wet hair:

Well that patch didn't grow, but overall pleased with the results:

Am I to critical, or do I have unrealistic expectations of hair transplants? To me it looks like a quite bad result: He is really happy with it, what is good of course :).

Thanks for your answers guys!

Thanks @Melvin-Moderator, great info! Correct me if I am wrong, the examples in your video looks more like maturation than newly popped grafts..? In my case it looks like, some grafts just didn't pop. What do you think of my progress so far?

Thanks @JohnAC71, I thought that the hairs in the front rows get trough at first (better blood flow?). So that why I thought maybe this is it..

Overall I should be very pleased with the results after 4 months and 25 days. But I am worried about a small patch on my hairline, I am really obsessed with it. I am staring it all the time, taking photo's, ask my girlfriend about it etc. etc.. I should be happy with my results (get a lot of compliments), but at this moment I am not, just of this. There is one patch in my hairline which should contain 2-3 grafts which haven't popped (yet?), and there were two short hairs in my skin. They were shedded because I just took them out of my skin without any resistance (photo is before). Do you think I just could have a delayed growth in this area, thus expect growth later on? Or do I have to expect this grafts to be dead? And if I found these maybe there are many more 'dead grafts'. In my opinion I haven't got any more popped grafts between month 4-5. This is now, with flash (5 months post-op) 4 months comparison

Thanks for your answer @gillenator. Do you mean the first photo or second one?

Sure, https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLjNx4r

Almost 5 months ago I had a hair transplant (hairline). I have good growth but still one empty spot in my hairline. I compared close up photos (one after transplant - growth now) and it looks like two grafts in that place still need to grow (if survived). I bought a cheapass microscope on Aliexpress (10 euro's). Are this the missing hair I am looking for, so is this a graft that grows (first photo). On the second photo it looks like a quite thick hair is under my skin.

Thanks @Melvin-Moderator for this video! But it seems like dr. Feller en dr. Bloxham are talking about that it can take a long time to see the hair come through. I see growth, I see a lot of stubbles, but to me it looks like (once they pop out of the skin surface) they don't really grow anymore...

Last October (58 days ago) I underwent a hair transplant (1400 grafts). Quite some stubs are already showing (since 2-3 weeks), and the amount is still slowly increasing. Yet I feel the stubs that I noticed weeks ago aren't really growing, they are not increasing in length (or possibly terrifyingly slow) . Is this common? Are transplants slow growers at first? I expected the hairs to grow at a regular pace once they start to show. I am a bit worried about this.

Is asked him about SMP, told me he considers it.

Till which month is it better to not use any vessel constricting products, like smoking (beside from other health concerns)?

Take a look here: https://www.realself.com/question/amsterdam-nl-hair-transplant-challenging-due-scar-tissue-de-recipient-area The general consensus of the surgeons is that a second hair transplant is not really more challenging.

Looks weird when you are older...

I am 34 days post-op, and I'd like to go to the sauna tomorrow (full day). Probably I am overly cautious but is it really safe to go? Will the heat of the sauna definitely not damage (or 'burn') my grafts? Post-op instructions tells my to stay away from the sauna for 4 weeks, still I am a bit afraid to go. My skin is healed, no scabs but skin still slightly pink.

Your hair piece looks very good btw.

Thank you @Raphael84 for you reassuring answer!
