  1. I am now approximately 8 months post-op and have experienced some growth. My H/t growth has been a little slow comming but Im sure by 12 months post-op I'll be fine,that'll include thickness and maturity etc. I must admit the wait has been agonizingly long . You have days everything looks fine and some days not so fine so you have your ups and downs untill you experience the real thing (real growth). Basically, patience is the essence. " [All good things come to those who wait] " after all patience is a virtue.

  2. Excuse my ignorance Bill, but when you mention transection does this literally mean the death of that hair. What worries me is are their people out there who would transect and then plant those hairs into the scalp, which would ultimately lead to a significantly low yeilding rate or even nothing. Please correct me where I may have a wrong understanding.

  3. Cheers NW4recession.

     

    Im hoping that the sprouting continues over the next 6 months. Ideally this will include maturing and texture because at 6 months with 50% growth the hair is still a little whispy in places. According to Dr H I should expect another 50% growth spurt in the comming months. Im pretty confident 6 months from now I'll be able to post the final results, before I contemplate of going back, this time for density. After all the surface area covered was relatively large.

  4. Yes your right, it definately does put things into prospective. According to DR H this is the 50% growth stage 6 months, so its just a case of waiting for the remainder 50%. Im hoping the grafts just keep sprouting over the next 6 months.

     

    In the mean time I have a question open to the panel. my scalp feels as though it has many pimples when I press the surface. The funny thing is that they are not visible as pimples. Just tiny red blemishes under the surface???.

     

    Finally growing the hair out is also now on the cards. I think I may allow this process to take its course around December time.

  5. I will be uploading some more shots by the end of November or December to give you an indication as to how things have progressed. In the meantime, the scar line has thinned a little. There has been some more growth, but pain-stakingly slow. I am still getting pimples over the scalp area and also in the scar area itself. Many of the grafts producing hairs are growing but at uneven rates, some are whispy and some are thick, a combination of both. I suppose the maturity, texture, etc will be some time yet, after all, its only been 6 months 1 week. One of the main aspects of this whole H/T experience has been learining how to be patient. Im optimistic by the end of a 12 month period I'll have good results,thats going of what I have seen and experienced so far, although I did have my reservations in the beginning, "LOL"
