  1. 48 Weeks (11 months) Postop Update: Hair is so much thicker and full now. Old transplanted hair that was planted at odd angles has blended right in to the new transplanted hair just as Dr. Bicer planned. Couldn't be happier with how things have turned out so far! Going to let the hair grow out a bit for the 1 year pic. 😄 Continuing with Fin 1mg daily.
  2. Thank you for putting this together @Melvin- Admin really appreciate it. What a difference!
  3. I chose dermarolling because it was the first thing I came across, I've heard dermastamping is much better because it's constant pressure whereas rolling is varied pressure. I'll probably buy a dermastamp with adjustable lengths to replace it now
  4. Hey thank you for the suggestion, just included a frontal picture. Check it out! @baddecisions
  5. thanks! I think after 2-3 months I started with the dermarolling. You can look back in this timeline of posts and see if you want to be exact!
  6. 35 Weeks Postop Update: Hair coming in much thicker now. I posted a picture of the repaired hairline this time. Curious to know your thoughts on how this part of the repair is progressing? Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  7. 31 Weeks Postop Update: Hair continues to come in strongly Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  8. 30 Weeks Postop Update: Still going! Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  9. Hey I can only assume so just like any other scar it will eventually fade. I don't know the measurements but I have a picture on the first page of this thread of my head shaved down before surgery that will help.
  10. I figured it was better to start small. If it's something you need to take for life the chances your body forms somewhat of an immunity to it are higher I would think. If you need to ramp it up later you can increase the doseage.
  11. 29 Weeks Postop Update: Hair looking great, couldn't be happier! Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  12. 28 Week (7 months) Postop Update: Really happy with my results! I just had a haircut yesterday and shaved the back and sides down to a 1. I can no longer see the scar on the back of my head as the new grafts Dr. Bicer implanted have now grown over it. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  13. 27 Week Postop Update: Density continues! Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  14. 26 Week Postop Update: FEELING GOOD! Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
  15. 25 Week Postop Update: Things looking great. Can't see scar at the back of my head after 1 week of growth following a #1 buzz haircut. I think if I did a 1.5/2 you wouldn't see it at all. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Oral minoxidil 1.25MG.
  16. 24 Week (6 month) Postop Update: So happy with the results so far. Just had a haircut earlier today. Buzzed to a #1 on the back and sides. My doctor has had me stop taking Oral Minoxidil and will not give me a prescription as he claims it is very hard on your kidneys. I did a quick search online and didn't find it to be particularly bad. Curious to know other people's thoughts on this one? @Gatsby I think you mentioned you've been taking it for some time? Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Oral minoxidil 1.25MG.
  17. Thanks! I actually don't notice the scar much (probably because it's on the back of my head haha) but once I hit the 1 year mark I'm sure it will be less visible. Really happy with the results so far!
  18. Thank you! If you go back to my pictures on Week 21 I just had a #1 on the back and sides of my head to give you an idea. I'm hoping that after 12 months you won't be able to see it even when shaved down to a #1 but let's see! Week 22 would be a week of growth so likely closer to a #2 at that point.
  19. Wow. I actually haven't done a side-to-side comparison like this yet. This really puts things into perspective for me so thank you! Looks incredible!!
  20. 23 Week Postop Update: Growth continues.. crazy to think I'm nearly at the 6 month mark. It's been 17 weeks of using Oral Minoxidil daily. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Oral minoxidil 1.25MG.
  21. 22 Week Postop Update: Love how the hairline is coming in! It's been 16 weeks of using Oral Minoxidil daily. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Oral minoxidil 1.25MG.
  22. @Astrobhoy mine was an interesting case as you can see here. I believe the price used to be minimum 5K Euro for up to 2K grafts then 2.5 Euro per graft afterwards, I can't remember exactly. I paid 5K as I was quoted 1000-1500 grafts originally and Dr. Bicer honoured this quote even though it ended up being ~2500 grafts. So really I should have paid ~6250 Euros based on the prices at the time. The prices may have changed since then, I'm not sure. I would reach out via Whatsapp, they're usually quick to respond there.
  23. Could be! I'm no expert. But I will take thinner hair in the back then upfront any day if that's the trade-off I have to make! My sides have been untouched for any future surgeries so I'm not really worried about it. We'll see how things play out at the 12 month mark :).
