Senior Member Neptune Posted June 30, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted June 30, 2007 There was a thread here a few months ago that went month by month through the transplant experience and said what you could expect to see happen. It was kind of funny but seemed realistic too. I've been searching but can't find it. Anyone remember which thread it was in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Neptune Posted June 30, 2007 Author Senior Member Share Posted June 30, 2007 Might? No way! Just my luck that you would have written that. I tried a search by got dizzy looking at all your posts. Couldn't find it after an hour so it will just have to live on in my mind. It was funny though. Thanks anyway!

Bill - Seemiller Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Neptune, I'm not sure if you are looking for this thread... But I posted something on it too: When will I look "normal" after a hair transplant? http://hair-restoration-info.com/eve/forums?a=tpc&s=569...911028023#7911028023 Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Neptune Posted July 1, 2007 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 1, 2007 Bill: That wasn't the one, but it is a great description of what to expect. The thread I was looking for was one in which one of the replies said something like: Month 1 - really happy that I finally took the plunge. Month 2 - Hairs jump ship. This sucks Month 3 - No improvement and scar concerns. What he Hell did I do this for? Month 4 - Same. Month 5 - Damn, stuff IS growing! and so on until month 12 or so when you schedule your next transplant. I probably just recreated a big chunk of the one I was looking for, but I remembered the original as being pretty damn funny. Thanks for looking though. I will keep trying to see if I can track it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Good find rp1979! I just copied it so everyone don't need to follow the thread. The following was writtenj by MRJB. Hi all I know it's hard to decide if your HTs were a good choice.. BUT if you went to a good doctor, trust me in 12 months you will be extremely happy you did.. In fact you will then get "hair greed" and probably start seeking to get another one.. Also, keep in mind it is perfectly normal to cycle through a host of emotions during your 12 month wait..Here is the program haha. Keep in mind this is my personal feeling based on my 3 HT's Month 1 - Question ? What did I do? Month 2 - Are these things normal to happen? Month 3 - Impatience/doubt(no growth & scar concern) Month 4 - Same... This didn't work Month 5 - DOUBT!! I got ripped off Month 6 - Hope! I see something (scar fading) Month 7 - Elation! Growth and small results Month 8 - Happiness & compliments ( people notice) Month 9 - Same Month 10 - God I should have done this sooner!!! Damn it looks good Month 11 - I want another!! Month 12 - WOW, what a difference ( #2 is scheduled) Be patient!
