pmaino Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Hey Guys, I am new to the forum and have a quick question for you . I recently booked a HT with Dr Feller and I will be having the surgery in early March 2009. He recommended that I get around 2500-3000 grafts on the front 1/3 of my head. While I am excited about this I just recently found out my good friends wedding is going to be about 70 days later. Do you think I will be able to look somewhat decent at the wedding to not draw much attention to myself. My recipient area will have to be shaved down so I was hoping just before the wedding I would be able to shave the rest of my head to match my hair length. I still have a decent amount of hair on my first 1/3 of my head so i hope this will grow back some by then. Any info would help. -Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member wantego Posted November 14, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted November 14, 2008 70 days is like 2 months and 10 days. I think you should look at peoples 2-3 month pictures and make your own judgments because I think people and opinions may vary. Good luck with your HT! 4374 grafts-7/2/2008-Dr Rahal 485 singles 2336 doubles 1526 triples 16 quads 9809 total hairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member tommyf Posted November 15, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted November 15, 2008 wantego, man, if I get half your result I would be extremely happy, you have to be pinching yourself. One question, how think is your hair, shaft diameter, so hard to tell in pictures, probably the best result I have ever seen on this forum tommy My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Rahal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
