capillus incrementum

With a little bit of delay, I share my 12 month results. Pictures taken at 20/11/2022, so 12 months and 8 days to be exact. Throughout all the shared pictures, I tried to add some variety (light, angle, ...) whilst still trying to give relevant benchmark references between each month so the evolution can really be measured. I hope this played out well and it gives that extra insight for the person who's still doubting about getting a HT or not. Looking back at it, I'm very happy with the decision I made and the result I got. The beginning was a little bit stressful but I guess that's normal when doing something like this. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask them.

Hello, First of all, my best wishes for 2023. Below, I share my 11 months results (pictures taken at 22/10/22).

My consultation was in person since I live pretty close to the clinic.

Thanks for the nice comment, I appreciate it. I'm not sure what the exact name of the style is but my barber gave me a mid fade (skin fade at the bottom). He kept more length in the middle of the scalp to create more thickness and he cut the front mid short so I could still style it the way I like to. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay. I'm very happy with the density. I'm able to style it the way I want and the quality and thickness of the hairs are perfect.

297 days or 9 months and 24 days since surgery. Very glad with the results. Pictures taken right after barber visit.

Apologies for the delay. These are my 8M pictures actually taken at 8.5M. 9M coming soon. Didn't notice any improvement compared to last month. Feel like 7M might be the best it has been (judging based on photos). In the last picture you'll see a non-combed, wet top shot in bright light.

Hey, we didn't discuss this. My hairline was my biggest priority.

I guess anywhere in the future, when I'd need another session, I could add the temple points. It doesn't bother me at all today so I'll see in the future. Good luck with your ht!

It was me who wanted and asked for an unshaven/partial shaven HT. For them, it's harder since they have more management to do during the procedure. I first wanted the unshaven, then went with the partial shave. I'm happy I did because after 1-2 months, I was able to cover the transplanted area and no one noticed I've had a HT. That being said, I think it's personal preference.

Thanks, Melvin. I highly appreciate the recognition. Also thank you, for everything you do on this forum and the video's you share with us. Personally for me, your videos and information have been calming me down before and right after the hair transplant. Thank you for that.

7 months. Maybe a small improvement in quality and color but not much has changed. Really happy with the result. Pictures in sun and normal.

My apologies for the delay. Pictures taken at 6 months post-op and after a haircut. First dry, then wet hair. I'm really glad with the result. Really curious at this point what will evolve over the next few months.

Thanks for the nice comment and question. When you go back to my first comment where I share my old before pictures (18yo) you can see the natural design of my hairline (moving outwards from the middle). I told Bisanga I was very interested to keep this if possible. He told me they always follow the pattern of the exisiting hairline and look at how all the hairs are growing naturally to mimic this. That being said, after he told me this, I was relaxed and was happy since what I wanted, was what he already had in mind. I think the design frames my face very well, I'm very happy with it. It looks so good, yet so natural already. If you're going to do something as big as a HT, I believe you should try to go for what you have in mind. If the doctor follows that vision with all of his knowledge, you get the best of both worlds.

5 months yesterday. The last couple of weeks have been great. The quality and thickness got to a point where I was confident enough with styling my hair a little bit. For the past 4 months I've been wearing my hair down but after 4 months and 1-2 weeks, I've been able to do something nice with it, which is awesome. As you can see on some wet pictures I hopefully have some growing and thickening left to do. Can't wait to see what the next months will bring.
