Senior Member Robert_ Posted April 3, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted April 3, 2006 Beautiful, tight graft placement in the temporal region, thinking. I was "thinking" about you a couple of days ago wondering how it all went down. After all this time, I'm stoked to see that you are going to have a nice new hairline compliments of Dr. Cooley. Keep the spray on it and take it easy. You've earned a break! Can't wait for the updates! -Robert ------------------------------ Check out the results of my surgical hair restoration performed by Dr. Jerry Cooley by visiting my Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member thinkingaboutit Posted April 3, 2006 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 3, 2006 Thanks for the comments. I feel very good about the procedure and I am still 'actively' convalescing by doing vitamins, spraying and soaking the area ect,...taking it easy. All the kudos go to Dr. Cooley and his staff. I also owe thanks to the posters on this board who share so much personal information to help others become informed consumers. What a difference that makes. And thanks as well to Robert who took the time to meet me when I first consulted with Dr. Cooley and was so helpful with information that guided me in my decision.

Senior Member Brando Posted April 7, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted April 7, 2006 thinkingaboutit, that's going to be a very very nice looking hairline. It's nicely packed. It reminds me alot of my post op look. Keep us updated, take it easy, and keep them moist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member thinkingaboutit Posted April 8, 2006 Author Senior Member Share Posted April 8, 2006 Thanks for all the words of encouragement. I didn't realize how helpful simple, supportive comments like that can be untill I found myself in this situation. I am very happy still, having gonr through the procedure. I was concerned that there might be a period of doubt and depression that often occurs pot-op, but that has not happened. The wisest choice I made was in the surgeon who performed the procedure.ZDr. Cooley. I have my sutures removed next Friday in Charlotte. I'm sure that I will have more photos taken then and I will post the progress next weekend. Thanks again for the kind words of support. This site is an excellent resource and its members are great.
