Regular Member panther5000 Posted December 28, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 28, 2006 Thank you guys for your encouragement and opinions which have helped me alot. I really hope this may be my last surgery! After 5-6 procedures im still nervous though. I guess the thought of being scalped first and then pin cushioned is always unnerving! I will definitely get digital pics before and after to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member panther5000 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 29, 2006 Hey guys here I am 2 hours post op feeling good. Well though I dont have all of the hair counts, I forgot to ask, I know I had 1402 grafts. Now heres the shitty part. Dr Charles was aggressive as possible and cut a 28cm /1cm strip and we still had a relatively poor yield. Reasons. Poor density in the donor region after 6, yes, 6 surgeries. Poor laxity. Though he said the scalp exercises improved in greatly. I jujst had so much scarring. The good news is he packed the hairline in really good. We used about 1,000 in my hairline which already had about 2000 from previous surgeries so this should be a marked improvement. The remaining 400 were placed in perfect position on my crown which in that area deperately needed it. Wish me luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
