Regular Member 3v_2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted December 13, 2008 Hi, Please see my weblog for the status of my hair transplant 6 months after the surgery. Noticable improvement can be seen compared to the 4 months mark - except for the temple region. My Hair Loss WebLog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Dewayne Posted December 13, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 13, 2008 Looks good so far, but a long way to go for you for sure. Keep in mind something Dr. Cooley told me; At 6 months, about 25% of patients have experienced 75% of their final growth. Another 25% are at only 25% growth. The remaining, or 'typical' patient, which is 50% of all, has experienced just 50% of the growth. So odds are you're about 1/2 of the final result.... 100?

Bill - Seemiller Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 3V_2008, Thanks for keeping us updated on your progress. As Dewayne rightfully indicated, you are coming along nicely, but you still have a long way to go. Patience is tough, but with time, growth and thickening will come . Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member dakota3 Posted December 15, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 15, 2008 I've heard the crown can take longer to fill in than the front. That appears to be the case here. Looks good so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Yogi's Dad Posted December 15, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted December 15, 2008 I like Dwayne's/ Dr. Cooley's odds assessment. I just hope I'm not the 25% who has seen 75% More importantly, I think 3v_2008 is making solid progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member latinlotus Posted December 15, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 15, 2008 3V 2008: it is hard to see the difference from the temples as you did not provide pre op pics of the temples. However, the top definitely shows improvement since the 4 month mark. Good luck and thanks for sharing your weblog. ******** I am not a doctor. The opinions and comments are of my own.

Senior Member Dewayne Posted December 17, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted December 17, 2008 I've noticed the most improvement, personally, between the 8th and 9th months - where I'm at right now. It's a weird feeling washing my hair and feeling much thicker hair up there. 100?
