AC Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Last Thursday got my HT from Dr. Reed in San Diego. My brother and another friend both used Dr.Reed and had great results. I researched online, visited the major competition but went with Reed because of his work and style. I am a little concerned about going back to work tomorrow. I think it will be hard to hide the redness. Otherwise everyting went good. Not much PAIN just minor discomfort in the past couple of days sleeping and with the itching. Any words of advice. I will post pictures once I can figure out how. For now thanks for all your postings. It's easier to do knowing people are out there that have had a HT.

Senior Member JohnH Posted October 14, 2003 Senior Member Share Posted October 14, 2003 AC, How many grafts did you get and were they on the crown or front? Are you using graftcyte or salt water? You'll get better advice if we can know more about your situation. Can you wear a hat at work? If not, you may want to fess up to your workmates that you had a HT. It sounds like swelling has not been a problem for you. I looked a little Klingon-ish after my last couple of sessions. That can bring a few stares. Fortunately only my wife got to witness it. I know this wasn't much help but if you post more info, you'll get better help. Also you can search on words like "postop" or "post-op" and find some good stuff.

Regular Member FrontalRetreat Posted March 26, 2007 Regular Member Share Posted March 26, 2007 AC, If you are still around, are you still satisfied with your results? Do you have any pictures you could post? Also, how many grafts did you get, where, and how much did everything cost? Thanks, So.

Administrators Pat - Community Publisher Posted April 4, 2007 Administrators Share Posted April 4, 2007 AC, Congratulations on your recent surgery with Dr. Reed. He is an all around class act. I expect your immediate post op results are impressive. It would be great if you could share photos of your immediate post op results and the number of hairs per graft you got. Feel free to create a free weblog that you can then link to in your posts. This weblog will also enable others to give you feedback and encouragement.

Bill - Seemiller Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 LOL Hairbank! Too much hair force must have gotten Pat on that one . Perhaps it wasn't Pat...maybe there are Pat clones running around out there too...after all, I did finally release the cloning program in beta Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
