I am 10 months post-op, having done 1300 grafts at the hairline with a top NY surgeon. Everything went well, growth is pretty good. But the hairs will not straighten. They almost look like pubes, unless I brush it hard, but they re-curl again. I have fairly straight hair, maybe a little coarse, but in no way curly. I was told this might happen, but when does it end? Anyone have this experience?

Just went to Dr. True. They DO NOT USE DIALATORS!!! Procedure went great. Can't talk about results until next year.

Is it me or does anyone else notice that all surgeons (even the best ones) draw that same round tapering curve at the hairline before operating? There seems to be no attempt to salvage the temple area nor replace what was once a fairly straight hairline. And they never try to come down as low on the forehead as you once had it, saying an older guy should have an older guy's naturally receding look. BS! I've seen many a gray-haired man with a thick straight hairline low on the scalp who looked great. Is there any medical reason for this, or does it even matter to patients who are happy to get any hair put anywhere it's not? Feedback anyone ? - Mr. Rocco
