Regular Member Mel Gibson Posted February 6, 2003 Regular Member Share Posted February 6, 2003 Anyone care to weigh in in why you should wait a minimum of 8 mos. between proceedures? I have been told it is for the donor area to totaly heal. Anyone else here the same from theri Doc? Thanks Mel Gibson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member poet Posted February 6, 2003 Regular Member Share Posted February 6, 2003 I think waiting for the grafts to grow and donor area to heal are both important. I had a second procedure 3 months after my first. And this caused shock in my donor area. Not fun. Fortunately it has grown back but I do suggest waiting.

Critic Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Another good reason is so that you can see exactly what you get from one procedure before you cough up more for another. Unless you are getting them at no cost like Jotronic and then show off your results for your surgeon and badmouth all the other Docs. Another thing don't allow your Doctor to shave your head. It's deceptive way to make you feel like you've received more than you paid for when the grafts grow in with your natural hair. And who has the ability to walk around with a shaved head that looks like it's been mutalated. Critic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
