Don’t scratch ! 😂 

 

Work looks clean, and at day 8, everything looks as it should. 
 

Do you have any pre op pics of your hairline exposed ? 

Donor looks ok, too? I’m afraid I did some permanent damage by scratching too much.

8 day post-op (most scabs off) + donor (which I’m a bit worried about since I’ve been scratching it):

Hi everyone!

Figured I’d make a post in this forum out of appreciation for all the awesome information/inspiration I’ve gotten here over the past few months.

I (M26) recently went for an operation at Dr. De Freitas’ clinic in Valencia. I was quoted for about 2,300 grafts but ended up doing 3,054 (2.21 follicles/ graft 😞) in order to get a bit of coverage in my crown area. My surgery dates were March 31st and April 1st with 1,000 grafts on the second day. Overall it was a pretty smooth experience albeit with a lot of pain and swelling which made it difficult to sleep 🙂.

Prior to the surgery, I had been taking Finasteride 1mg for about 8 years and Minoxidil 5% once daily for about 8 years as well. I haven’t lost too much since then but have slowly started to thin out over the years, especially in my crown. About a month before the surgery, I added Dut 0.5 once a week. 
 

I’ll add a few replies to this post with some pre op and post op pictures!
