Hi all Sorry for the very late reply. Life has been hectic for me recently (in a Good way ) Well, I had my touch up procedure with Dr ferreira in Nov 22. So it's been coming to nearly a year and a half since then. And wow, what a difference the touch up made. I am literally over the moon with my hair now. It's all filled up and I can just let it grow long or cut it short, can do lots of different styles that I haven't done in years (41 now, and for 20 years it was one style, shirt and combed down) . All my worries were addressed and I can honestly say I'm so grateful for the touch up procedure. I must add, from about month 10 after my first procedure the implanted hair was still growing and even so, Dr Ferreira booked me in as soon as possible so he could address my worries. He added more to the front, and the temporal peaks. Overall, I really am so happy with the outcome and even though I haven't got any pics of my donor area, not a single barber I go to, stops and looks closely at the donor area. I have to tell them I've had a HT and they then look closely and realise I have, otherwise they would never have known. That just shows the skill used by Dr Ferreira. Even though I was not happy 6 months after first transplant, I should have exhibited more patience as by month 10 it was looking good, but Dr ferreira still had me in and did a touch up and made it much better. He really is a artist in this field. I love my fuller hair, the hair line look so natural, and the temporal peaks look really good. I hear he's booked up all the way to end of 2024. Just shows how much in demand the man is. I have attached some photos, not great but let me know if you want to see more I'll take some and send them. First 4 are before any hair transplant ever took place. Photos 5&6 are day after touch up. Rest of the photos are from a variety of times from 7 months onwards. You can see I can push the front up like a quiff , and also where I have cut it short. Last one was today. Need a hair cut !!

Hi guys I will wait until the full 12 months before posting new pics. I feel that would be ideal as a lot of guys in here have said to wait for the full 12 months. I do believe a touch up will do the trick. Thanks for your support guys. Really appreciated.

Thanks very much. I will keep you updated.

Thanks man. Hope you been well. The main thing is that dr Ferreira will work to make it a desired outcome for me if at the end it is not what i expected. Thats keep my worrying amd stress levels minimized.

Hi all I know many of you have asked for updates, and spoke about there being agreements with the doctor and me not to post on here but that is absolutely not true. I emailed Dr Ferreira about my concerns and we both agreed i would update him every month until the 10 month mark. To be quite honest, he was actually happy i made a post on here. Each month i show him photos and videos if how its going and he analyses it. His after care is actually very good as he does care and wants the patient to be happy. Thats the feeling i am getting anyway. A free of charge touch up is offered if the result did not meet the expectations. Not many clinics offer that. So, an update. Its been 8 months and yes there has been some improvement but i would like to wait until the final result has been achieved before i show more photos. I would have expected more coverage at this stage especially in the frontal area but i will wait the course before making any judgements. It looks better than it did at 6 months, thats for sure. I do believe i will need a touch up and am sure that will give me what i want. Furthermore i know dr Ferreira will want the desired result probably more than me. Ill keep you all updated and thank you for showing interest in my post.

Thanks Melvin. I felt it the write thing to do by rewriting the post. Kept it simple and sincere.

I have felt it the right thing to do my rewriting my post. Thank you all Ittiaz

Hello Mr Ferreira May I say I'm just so happy you got onto this post. What other surgeon would do that. I was emotional and still am but much calmer now. Last two days have been tough. Thank you for the reassurances, it means so very much to me. There are very knowledgeable people on here and they have helped. But sometimes I may read to much into post and start thinking negative. Something I need to cut down on. And yes you are right the title of this post was rather crude. I have since changed it. I want to be able to post again and say "look at my wonderful result now". Your post has put a smile on my face thank you Ittiaz. (Cheers melvin)

Thanks. Like i said earlier I was in communication with him and our next contact would be in a months time. I do hope I end up satisfied. Thanks melvin

Wow look great Melvin.

I would doubt that. It's been six months and nothinghas happened

This was just aftwr scabs cane off. No issues there either

I have tried to take pictures but they are too small and difficult to see . I can only feel them. But they have'nt done anything. Not the slightest growth. If they are dead then they could be blocking hair from pushing through.

I did see it and that is a brilliant result. Fair play to him. Any idea about the short stubble that has been sitting on the scalp for months and not growing? What's becoming these? Are they dead ? Damaged ? I'm so curious about them

Yes I have see the video, and to be honest it's not very helpful to me. You see those people in the video, they were having growth and then it turned out good. I've hardly got growth and it's month 6. But thank you very much anyway
