Abby

I may be returining back for a 2nd H/T 10th April. I am hoping i'll acheive around 2000 minimum if donor allows it??? May ask for around 5-700 grafts crown area, 1000 grafts frontal area and the remaining more central. What is the norm when dealing with the crown area should they just be planted or should they planted in a natural swirl??

After this H/T I will be allowing my hair to grow out, right up to December before I go for a cut, unlike before.

Any ideas please do comment.

I like the way the crown has been done. Do all surgeons produce this quality of work on this forum??? It seems the grafts have been strategically placed to give it the maximum affect.

Was the experience similair to the first i,e pain swelling ,shock loss. etc

Yogis Dad, I suppose you are right, the area obviously covered was huge and for what it is, it aint too bad, taking into consideration I can walk around without a hat.

Abby,

 

It's difficult to evaluate your hair since you said you've used nanogen in the photos. Can you post some without it?

 

I know you are concerned about density. But given the number of grafts you received and the large balding area covered, you wouldn't have been able to achieve the desired density in one session.

 

Do you have plans for a second procedure?

 

Best wishes,

 

Bill

I am contemplating a 2nd H/T???? I think if some kind of illusion affect can be acheived then id be happy with that.

It does look really good short in those pictures. With it so short does anyone mention the scar? I'm curious about your gaps that you mentioned. How many would you say you have and where? I'm concerned about a couple of gaps of my own.

The gap appears to the right frontal area about 2sq cm. The scar very few people realise its there . Thats because I dab a little nanogen on to the scar.

Theses are 9 month post op pics. I ve had to keep the hair short due to many gaps appearing on growth due to the large area covered. A touch of nanogen has been added in these pics. I am considering a 2nd H/T hopefully that will give the density that is required for a fuller look if strategicaly placed.

How effective are 2nd HTs do they make a massive difference.

Abby, Your hair looks good short! Scar looks nice as well! Do you keep your hair short because of the lack of density or because you like the look? Either way you've come along way from what I can tell! Good luck to ya!

Yes Dakota3,I keep it short due to the lack of density.I did try to grow it out but it looked very SCRAGGY. Thats why a 2nd H/T maybe on the horizon.

PK Thanks, but actually I be happy with what ever hair I can get with a tranplant rarther then having no hair, If I did not do this last HT my hair was looking worst as I have lost alot of hair in past 12 years, so needed to fill in the patches of no hair at the front to achieve a good look on hairline and from front, I can live with no hair at back!

Hope it goes well for you. I think looking at your pics and ith another H/T things will look much better.

I was contemplating another H/T myself with DR,H Just waiting for a reply from him via email.

Seldom does anyone with extensive hairloss get away with just one procedure.. Of course with megasessions it is possible but the vast majority of us will need more than one for a complete restoration

 

There are many factors involved as well

I see what you are saying Mr Jobi a 2nd H/T is looking inevitable. In my case the area was large and to be realistic your right in what you are saying. Just hope the next H/T is gonna wrap things up so I can get on with my life.

Cheers buddy I may look at that as well.

Thanks

Well Im hoping the strip will do the job. But if for some reason there is a short fall in grafts then the next best option would have to be FUE. Saying that Im hoping the strip will doe the job nicely.

that sounds like a first to me. sounds interesting.

 

what are your reasons for doing it that way? will you not be able to get enough grafts from the strip?

You may be right, Ill have to see on the day if it will be sufficient, if not then a few FUE may be needed for the crown.

Well I was hoping the strip wil be used for the density front and top. Then additional FUE units will be taken from back of the head to cover some of the crown area.

Im contemplating a 2nd H/T. I was wondering has anybody had a Strip surgery plus FUE on the same day.

Cheers guys

Where is Dr Chaudhry from. Is he member of the coalition.???

Yeh sure ill load some up over the last 3 months. You will see another H/T is required after all it was a very large area to cover.

I was looking at AGENTHARLEY'S profile from USA New York Bald Class - 5a absolutley amazing transformation, saying that I was a 6plus on NWS

so im hoping i gonna see some real results by christmas after my 2nd H/T. Just waiting to hear from DR H.

I had 3250 grafts.

Im thinking of a 2nd H/T . I was a NWS6 who qualified for 3250 grafts but feel 2nd H/T may be needed to fill in the spaces. What do you guys think???? will it improve things???

Cheers

From your experience do you think another 2500-3000 may make a big difference I also see that your 1st H/T was in 1996. Since then have you noticed a difference in technology and which clinic did you go to in the UK..

Cheers
