The density is excellent and the worm is super clean. It blends in with the previous work flawlessly.

I can already tell that this is going to be an A+ result. Stoked for ya.

What’s the reasoning behind that?

Thanks man. It almost feels TOO good, haha. Like... is this it?!

Will do for the 5 or 6 month update.

So awesome.

4 month update: Lots of growth over the last month. Looking great in favorable light — still bald in my temples in unfavorable light. Definitely not going to try growing it out any longer than this for another couple of months at least. Redness is also still hanging around which is unideal 😎.

I think this will turn out quite nice! Excited to follow along.

It's very common for one side to lag (I'm currently experiencing the same). It's looking great so far.

Home run!

This is looking amazing!

What’re y’all’s thoughts on combining a transplant with SMP? I’m closing in on month 4 and seeing a ton of growth but I’m wondering if coupling the transplant with a dash of SMP in the hairline 8 months from now would really drive it home?

So clean — this is going to be an epic comeback.

Or they were so great that they’ve moved on from this form and are enjoying life! I’d imagine they’d be back here seeking more validation of it didn’t turn out well.

Yeah you’re going to be solid. Your current baseline is what most of us on here would dream of haha.

Fin is a hormone blocker that primarily helps patients retain what they currently have (though I have seen many cases where people have regrown a substantial amount). Min is a stimulant that will decrease time between hair cycles and, in many cases, thicken/regrow hair. The goal is to ensure that you are halting recession in place so that you do not continue to recede behind the implanted hairs in the hairline. You are starting from a great situation and have the ideal hair characteristics for a transplant but that doesn’t make you immune to continued balding. If I were you, I would really dive into the research and speak to my physician to put a preventative plan in place so I wouldn’t have to use more of my finite donor on the future.

Some hairs are starting to sprout just over 3 months post-op:

Excellent result.

Super nice and natural result!

This is awesome.

Really nice and natural result!

This is so damn good. I'm jealous!

Looking great so far. I’m considering him for my 2nd and hopefully last procedure if I don’t get the density that I was hoping for from this first surgery. How was the process from reaching out to surgery with him?

Awesome. Sounds like you have very realistic expectations!
