I think so. But super busy this year. It might be a 2025 job. I just looked at your log man. Your results look great. Congrats!

Does this look like 3000+ grafts from Cooley?

Appreciate this. I’ve always considered my self to be a slow balder - especially compared to some of the other chaps here. What I can do immediately is go from 1mg Fin 3x a week to daily. I’ll give it a whirl. In terms of your HT surgeon suggestions, why would you personally not choose Eugenix given their recent track record. Aside from graft survival in frontal (I’ll reserve full judgement at 12 months) I only wonder if some grafts were placed at interesting angles - I feel like there’s a cluster of fringe hairs facing the wrong angle. I’m not picking but if I can’t talk about it here where can I.

Yes agree with both of you. These pics aren’t how I style my hair but to illustrate the density of over 4000 grafts (mixture Cooley + Eugenix). I definitely see improvements from my Eugenix surgery. I look better from all angles - except maybe above 😂

Got a link to your profile. And if you’re in the same boat how do you style your hair. I live in the windiest city in the world and it’s killing me!!! I’d kill for topical Dusteride. And maybe I’ll just have to suck eggs and do a low dose of oral min and deal with puffy eyes? 🤷‍♂️

Here you go. These are indicative but unfortunately we don’t have good before pics showing us the hollow in the middle. Either way I don’t feel like my journey is complete.

10.5 Months - Different angles I'm very anxious right now. I feel like I'm going to need another transplant, hide under my cap, or need to shave it down to a number that obscures my FUT scar. Fingers crossed my 10.5 - 12.5 months make a big enoiugh of a difference (frontal) where I don't need to worry about that. Note my graft positioning was as follows: Frontal - 1680 Temples - 360 Mid - 720 Crown - 1572 Considering that I already had 3000 grafts in the frontal region from Jerry Cooley... I'm nervous.

10.5 months TRYING to style it but struggling with frontal 😢

This is awesome in every way! I’m inspired when I see this. I had resigned myself to never being able to go that short again but now I’m not so sure!!! SMP Adelaide seem to have done a nice job. Are you glad you went there / did you do a lot of research? Also was that before you had grafts placed in scar? I’m guessing not.

Yep. 1mg propecia 3x week. Any more and my nuts hurt terribly AND stop working. Zoomed in for you. You can see my scalp under a thin fringe and behind that a combed over flap of hair.

9.25 months Hi team HT. You all know the story, I’ve been busy with life. Trying to push on through. Chin up. I feel like the temples and crown are doing alright. Im terribly anxious about the frontal area and top. No matter how I style my hair I can always see scalp. Example attached. It doesn’t look like I’ve had 3000 grafts from Cooley AND a Eugenix HT 😅

More images same day of transplant

Not really sure if this is the right angle but it does tell a story

Month 4 Come on grafts you can do it!!!

Thanks bro! I have high hopes for 3-4 months

Thanks! I never really thought about shock loss in the donor - been too busy thinking about my precious grafts

Three months. First week vs three months. Where oh where have all my precious grafts gone. Any thoughts or comments on donor from side view. I’m not overly concerned but I wonder whether it looks over harvested to you guys.

Day 28 It's been an interesting week as I have been noticing lots of small black transplanted hairs falling out. It's a nerve wracking time, I know shedding is inevitable but I have clearly been in denial about it. From a recovery point of view things are going great. These photos are here for me just as much as they are for you. I've marked out the areas where my new hairline was transplanted so I can monitor it and review on day 365.

Looks amazing!

Day 10 From the front the grafts look plentiful. I couldn’t be happier. My own mental jury is still out regarding the crown. It looks less full of grafts. But they could be the light. I’ll take some naturals soon. I already have graft greed, I’m thinking about going back in a year to get my fut scar filled up. Or maybe just some of it.

Thanks bro appreciate it!

I reckon. I zoomed in a lot and looks a bit better - maybe add micro needling now and that might do it 🤔 p.s. how about giving me edit access on my Eugenix log already 😉

I’ve had a beard for the past 15-20 years. It was the first time I’d seen my face in a long time - it felt right to keep something!! Have you had an HT?
