Senior Member JakeVig Posted June 20, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 20, 2006 Facelessman, Good to hear you had an overall good experience! It sounds a lot like mine. I can relate to your 'angry' bee stings - I laughed so hard reading about your experience I almost literally burst my stitches!!! Anyway 4200 grafts pack a powerfull punch, your going to be one happy (read: almost unrecognizeable) camper in a few months!! 1344 grafts with Ron Shapiro - June 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Eman Posted June 21, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 21, 2006 Looks great faceless....just don't go too fast in the vette this early as the grafts might blow out (just kidding). Congrats and look forward to seeing your progress!! My initial HT thread: done and done!! Check it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member dhuge67 Posted June 21, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 21, 2006 The worst part is the suture tightness, but it gets better in about 10 days.

Senior Member paris_caine Posted June 21, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hi faceless, congrats on getting he deed done, and done well. I have a question, since my hair is very similar to yours. Since they shaved the entire top off, how long would it take for your existing hair on top to grow, so you would be able to go back to work, or is it that you don't care about that part? i have always been scared that once they shave my top off, it would take a long darn time before my hair on top grows to the length i keep it at usually, to be able to hide the HT hair. Any thoughts? P.S i have a consult scheduled with Dr. Feller in a week. any words of advice besides the usual? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member paris_caine Posted June 21, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 21, 2006 Thanks faceless, that does help. Besides, i will have your progress to look at, although, as you said, everyone's case is unique. One other question. Do you take Propecia, and/or did you discuss that with Dr. Feller? best of luck in coming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member tkerr22 Posted June 28, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted June 28, 2006 congrats faceless man! I am a little behind you, being at 5days post op now. I had trouble sleeping so I just said to heck with it and lied on two pillows brushing against my face, staying clear of my midscalp where I had my grafts. I got a little swelling on my left cheek but nothing that bad and is gone now. I just made sure I didn't rub my grafts against a pillow for the first 3 nights, didn't see any damage as I checked my bed and pillow the following mornings so looks all good! I know what ya mean by the staples or sutures in my condition, cannot wait for friday to get them out! My doc likes to get them out after a week to help minimize scarring from the stitches, but am waiting as when I lie on the back of my head I get some aching pain around the donor area and I know the stitches make it worse! Get ready for all those babies to fall out and start the waiting period for growth! My Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hairbank Posted July 20, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted July 20, 2006 Faceless, Congrats on a very fine HT courtesy of Doc Feller. I hadn't taken time to read your story until this morning. 4200 will cover that area nicely and I'll bet you'll be more than pleased. I guess your starting the waiting game as happends with HT's. Growth varies..............I did start at the 6 week mark (very slowly) after my 2nd HT so maybe you're on your way?? If not, it'll come eventually. Keep growin' and sharing your updates!

Senior Member hairbank Posted November 1, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted November 1, 2006 Hey Faceless, Enjoyed reading the update on your blog.............you have a way with words, my friend. Oh yeah, as for the hair, it really is looking good. I'm envious of the temple points!!! I had so much real estate to cover in the crown my last HT I didn't consider it. Over all, your HT is really filling in. I hope you'll post 6-7 month pics as I'll be you'll really be filling in by then.

Senior Member John_in_NC Posted November 1, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted November 1, 2006 faceless, looks great so far. Can you please post a real close up of the temple points? I am curious to see how natural they can be in real life /close situations. thanks and you should be thrilled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member FacelessMan Posted November 6, 2006 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 6, 2006 Spex...hey, who is that dude on the left?? Thanks for posting that pre-photo; it brings back memories! I was definitely nervous... It's cool...remarkable...to see that purple line, and see now how that area is hair-filled...! It also shows how the temple points area is so significant...I hadn't realized it, really, until they started growing in more, and longer, recently, and blending in better with the sides. What was odd about the temples is that as far as I could tell, those were the only transplants that didn't seem to shed, at all...at least, not noticeably, or as completely as the rest. Very cool!

Senior Member FacelessMan Posted November 6, 2006 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 6, 2006 John_in_NC: Actually, the most recent shots on my blog (the "progress" shots as well as the ones from my NYC trips) are the best temple point closeups I have, now, but I'll make it a point (no pun intended) to aim my amateur camera-holding hands in that direction next time! Hairbank, Garageland...and for that matter everyone...thanks for the good words!

Senior Member hairbank Posted November 29, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted November 29, 2006 Looks pretty good, Faceless! The top view shows that it seems all your grafts are taking off. I would guess you'll see some drastic changes (for the positive) in the next two months as you get some length and start to "dense up" a bit. Thanks for the update..........happy growin' to you!
