  1. Can't see.the pictures make my hair look thicker than it is..in day light with a camera not and I phone itscvery noticeable.. I wear a hat ninety percent of the time and then concealer at weekends but didn't have any on a few weeks ago and a friend made a comment about why don't I shave my head because I look like I'm 40 when iv not hat on.. When you say your missing something? I'm not sure what you mean? My first op was 6300 grafts covering my hole head(think you can see the pictures on my profile)my 2nd was I think 3200 which worked out about 1600 each side of my hair line and the 3rd 1600 was placed in the area that is circled out on the bottom left picture that Hariri kindly put up for me... Hope that helps Spanker. Thanks it's been a long time to get to this stage hopefully this is the last time! No that was just how I went bold but I'm fairly sure all of my natural hair his now gone Ko the 3rd ht results are on the top row of pictures Hariri put up.I think my hair is still improving but the crown wasn't touched.. I had actually paid for 3000 grafts but wasn't to be .. Dr rahal did say he thought I'd be able to get another 1000 at a later date tho Thanks sadbuttrue.. Well after the 6300 grafts iv had to address the hairline mid section and now crown again so I'm going to have to say the first op.. If I could go back it time I wouldn't have spaced to 6300 grafts over such a large area .. I do have a lot more pictures of before and after each HT and plan to do a write up on my next one with Dr Bhatti I'm just going to have to bribe Hariri into helping me as that's why iv given up before! Hi John No I'm not on any meds which is why I think I'm where I am today. If I could have kept taking finasteride I'm sure half my grafts would have been enough but I tried before my first op taking 1 tablet then tried halving them on Dr wongs advice after the 1st op... Then tried cutting them into 4 but still the same side effects ..
  2. Hi Chris iv tried but it doesn't seem to work from my I pad Hariri would you be able to put some of the pictures up that iv sent you?no face one tho Thanks buddy Can't decide I'd be happy with a little bold spot! But unfortunately that's not the case my crown quite bad. Dr Rahal did work on my hairline on the second op which has improved a lot and on the 3rd added some density but just didn't have the grafts to be able to make a difference I'm not saying anything went wrong after the first 6000 grafts but when I contacted Dr wongs office about a 2nd ht they asked for pictures and said I'd need 4000 grafts to address the problem. Which was the same quote they had given me before they had done my first ht Once I'd told them I'd already had 6000+ grafts with them they did apologize and offer a discounted rated which I appreciated but I'd made my mind up on Dr rahal I was happy with dr wongs work at the time though.I think the meds has been my problem iv tried twice to take the but just can't I see a lot of people with my degree of hairloss on this site asking for advise on grafts and being told 4-6000 ..well if your not on meds and your hair it's thick be prepared for that count to go up:(
  3. Thanks HARIRI Dr Bhatti 5th of June so not long now! Hi Chris yes il try and upload them now.the second pictures isn't great because I had to use my I pad. Sorry chris I can't figure out how to put them up.iv had this problem before I'm not great with computers, copy and paste is about a technical as I get and It's says up from your URL :confused:
  4. Hi guys So I'm heading for my 4th ht.iv basically used most of my grafts up and probably need another 2000 in the crown area.Im hoping to address my scar with chest hair and hopefully use the remainding scalp +beard hair into the crown I'm just wondering is chest hair recommended for on top of the head too? As I'd like to use them as a filler in areas that are scalpy,do the hairs have the same characteristics as the would on the chest or would the eventually straighten out. I'm not on any meds which I think has been my down fall as iv seen many cases reach there goals with smaller ht's than my first 1 which was over 6000 grafts with dr wong and iv had 2 more since with dr rahal who I'd highly recommend.hopefully 4th time luck:D
  5. Your be able to do Elvis shows by the time your finished growing!! All the best with the second ht..is foxbar still open? I think I was put onto another guesthouse?:confused:
  6. Looking good!! You officially have a hairline!! Looking like il be heading back over in September.. Hopefully the house mates are as cool as the last ones!!
  7. Hairgoesnothing..looking good man!! Are you getting fue in June or strip again..1 more fue for me then no more?hopefully ☺
  8. HI guys iv recently had a transplant and have been told to start using minoxidil to help to grafts grow.I ordered the 10% bottle from amazon but when i was getting my stitches out i was told that 10% is to strong and it would kill the grafts..im probably going to get the 5% bottle now..just wonder if anyone is using 10% and getting good results?
  9. looking good hairgoesnothing!!!.im getting my stitches out tomorrow,im going to be the last one left in the house as well because 1 left today and 2 leave tomorrow..looking forward to watching your out come!!!
  10. yes i had over 6209 grafts with dr wong 2 years ago next week and 3200 with dr rahal this week il put some pictures up once im a week out:)
  11. just a quick note to say the foxbar guest house has been everything i was hoping for..i was met at the door by a guy who was 7 day post op and 2 guys sitting on the recliner seats that had had their hts a few hours b4 hand i instantly felt at home and consider them friends now and am looking forward to growing and comparing in the future...also having recliner seats has made a big difference to my swelling..roll on the next 8 months
  12. iv a 36 hour flight and people that i havnt told about the ht.. so wanted to give myself some time to heal also hoping to get the stitchs out before i leave...
  13. hariri ar you staying in the foxbar guest house..if so il see you there..my ht is on the 19th and im staying around for 2weeks...enjoy the scalp exercises!!!
