Correction to my prev post. i got my HT done on 05/21/2008

Hi Folks,

when this shock loss start happening. I had a procedure on 6/21/2008. I don't loose that many hair, just a few. also, my donor area healing pretty well. i just have the pinching feeling on the edge of my donor area. my wife really thinks my donor scar will go away.

Hi Please Grow Please - there was no specific reason choosing him, i just found him reliable. i live in Sarasota, Fl, and it was very convinient for me since he does HT in sarasota. Right now he is on vacation. that's why, i am bothering you all .

this dostor does HT in clear water, Sarasota, Fl area. he also told his father was one of the researcher when this HT first came into consideration.

Check this video too. i wish he is successful so i won't have to cut on my back on my next hair implant. Guys, I am not promoting anything here. just sharing information what i see on the website. may be i am trying console myself since i didn't do much research before doing HT

thanks Dewayne.

I was googling about mu doctor and see following news about his research,

check this out

http://www1.wsvn.com/features/articles/medicalreports/MI85817/.

Folliculitis - from doctors note - on rare occasion may develop at the graft side. These looks similar to acne with pimple -like lesions. if this happens, apply moist warm soaks and antibiotic ointment to the areas 3 times a day.

I got HT done 10 days ago under Dr Joseph Greco, PhD, PA/C. hope , he is a good doctor. I visited few places and found him realistic as he was not talking garbage. he told me to be realistic about it, he was like you are not going to have hair like 18 yrs old. Also, he was not willing to implant so many grafts in one session. I really hope i chose a good specialist. Anyone has any ideas about him?

My HT went pretty smooth. I got HT on my crown (where i was missing a lot) and little on the front. I have been following all the instruction he gave me for the first week.

Exactly after one week, my suture was removed. There was no infection or anything.Doctor told me i might see blood on my pillow or in the grafted area, but i naver had to experience that.

I have following queries, please advise.

1. I am still shampooing twice a day, patting the shampoo on my grafted area, let it sit for 10 mins, and then gently rinse it with a cup(no rubbing). For how long i should be shampooing like this? when can i start shampoo normally?

2. after shampooing, i see some white stuff on my grafted area (hope those are not seeds which were grafted) . These white stuff remains on my hair. should I rinse little harder to remove these white stuff? when can shampoo normally?

3. grafts which were implanted-- how long it takes to plant these seeds(grafts) on my skull permanently. i shampoo very carefully even after 10 days so those seed doesn't come out (I call them seeds ).

4. last 10 days i haven't slept on my the bed, have been sleeping in the sofa sitting, so my implanted area doesn't touch the pillow. when can I sleep on the pillow? I am afraid if i sleep touching my grafted area to the pillow, those seeds might come out. please advise.

5. i haven't had sex for last 11 days. when should i start having sex? doctor didn't say anything about sex though.

6. i don't see any folliculitis developed on my grafted/donor area. what time period these follicilitis comes thru normally?

7. I see black bump on my crown area? when these bump will be gone?

8. i have itchy feeling sometimeson my crown but not a whole lot (just a little), should i put anything to prevent itching? I can actually bear this itchying . does this itching have any bad impact?

9. i have burning sentation(if i take my palm near my crown, it feels warm) on my crown. I think it is happening from sinus. i do have sinus issue, and before doing HT I also experienced this warm feeling on my crown? hope, it doesn't have any bad impact to HT?

10. doctor told me not to look down, always look up? for how long I have to do that.

11. i feel little pain on my donor area, if i touch it, when this pain will be gone completely? i don't even have to take any pain killer anu more.

12.when these implanted hair will start to fall?

I wish i had visted this site before doing HT. i found this website on the sane day when i got my HT done .

Please advise, Your time and effort will be really appreciated. Thanks so much in advance

By the way, I am 34 yrs old.
