Smidge over the 9 month mark with FUECAP (2790 grafts) and although theres some time to go, must admit i’m a little concerned. Hair loss was stabilised with meds (fin and oral min) before.
Post surgery I felt confident that this number of grafts, density etc was realistic to get some decent coverage and form a good foundation for a second surgery. As you can see from when the scabs fell off, this I would have been happy with that and set the expectations accordingly.
I have had some shock-loss (as you can see from previous pics) but it’s like most of the grafts on the left side haven’t broken through yet and generally speaking when compared with the pre-surgery picture, i'm struggling to see 2,790 hairs let alone total grafts... I have circled where there is no grafts at all on the hair line, let alone much happening behind it on that left side where the grafts were placed.
Have shared this with FUECAP and waiting on response but was curious to see if anyone had lots of shock loss that took some time to recover and/or experience delayed hairs poking through at this stage or am I looking at grafts that didn't make it?
Of course, i'm willing to concede that my level of hair-loss needed more than this to fill. But how can the lack of visible grafts matching with the post-surgery shot be explained?
Fingers crossed for some growth over next few months but feeling a little disheartened tbh
