Updates of J+14 of my removal procedure

Hi ! J+5 since my removal hairline. Here is some pic,

Yes i hope my case is possible to repair…

Yes it’s possible ! I hope i did the good choice with this repair, because my new hairline is still missoriented ( old hair transplant ), and i have a very bad face now. The next step is removal or densification

Thanks i can try yes

Thanks Yes of course !

I will measure it after 1 week i think, but i will densify the hairline after. So it’s just for few months. about finasteride, i saw that 0,5 and 1mg is the same for results

Hairline was little lower, but with hairline repair, it will be better. yes im agree with 1500g, i think it’s enough. Finasteride really dont work on me

It’s before hairline removal

Thank you for your advice! I added the photo of the frontal line before the intervention in my post, I had forgotten. The removed grafts were replaced on the area with the blue circle in the image, and very, very few at the hole. I think I need a densification intervention anyway, because I have lost too much since then, and in any case I need to rebuild the frontal line.

Yes I know he is excellent, it was after a lot of research that I chose him. Yes I'll put some closer photos after the cream leaves, we'll see nothing otherwise

Hello forum, In the same way that you helped me, I'm writing this testimonial for those who might be in the same situation as me. As a reminder, I'm 25 years old, and I have very, very aggressive and diffuse hair loss, with thinning all over my head. I had a first operation with 2,500 grafts (maybe less, in which case they would have lied to me) in a clinic 2 years ago, but the result was bad. Contrasting density, pluggy frontal line, and grafts oriented at 90 degrees. I couldn't stay like that, so I decided to go for a repair with Dr Bisanga at BHR Clinic. Everything went really well, thanks to Lina for her support, and to the Doctor and his team for the repair. Now I just have to wait for the results. I had no pain either during or on the night of the operation, apart from the local anaesthetic, but nothing serious. 457 grafts were removed from the hairline and placed on my left temple (I don't know why they're not placed evenly across my middle, but I trust the doctor. Anyway, I'll be redensifying in 6 months or 1 year). On the other hand, i find that i have a huge forehead now, since the hair behind is also oriented vertically, what do you think ? I need to redensify as quickly as possible because it's really not pretty Here's my plan: - Extract 457 grafts from the hairline (which was done yesterday, photos attached). - If necessary, re-extract more grafts, or use a laser. - Densify the middle + hairline with 1500-2000 grafts. I know that with an aggressive loss it's risky, but what can you do? I am engaged in the process, and according to the doctor, I would have a donor area of 5000-6000 grafts left, I have a big beard, and a lot of body hair. I have also been on oral minoxidil 2.5mg per day, and finasteride 0.5mg per day for 1 year, but I have no effect. I still have a lot of hair that is getting smaller every day and the loss is not stopping. I will probably switch to dutasteride once a week, and move to 5 mg of minoxodil, 2.5 in the morning, and 2.5 in the evening. If anyone is in the same situation as me, I would appreciate your advice. I will post the progress of the healing on this thread, stay tuned.

Are there any examples on this forum of cases similar to mine? People wishing to densify after a plug removal. It's supposed to be a common repair, isn't it?

Interesting discussion, Do you think there is a big difference between 2.5mg and 5mg oral minox ?

Thank you for your answers. But that's what I don't understand, I've seen testimonials where the scars are invisible, and for me, if there are any, they'll be camouflaged when I redensify. As far as the medication is concerned, I'd like to switch to 5mg of minxodil, but I understand that it doesn't change much compared to 2.5mg. It's a shame there's no topical dutasteride in France ...
