Just gone past 8 weeks post op. Had a few hair cuts to keep it tidy.

Started looking for signs of life - but nothing yet.

 

When do I expect to see some growth ? All my previous HTs were well behind the hairline, so I was never conscious of when they started growing.

Im getting impatient now!

 

hopefully the "down time " is drawing to a close mate:cool:

Ok, thanks guys. It is different when its yourself. Long time to see the returns.

Its a leap of faith, that all that money I saved up is embedded in small follicles just beneath my skin, and there is no sign of even the slightest scar on the recipient site !

Righto.... better find something else to do for 5 months...

 

tum te tum... just one more look in the mirror...

 

....NOOOOO.!

I remember feeling this way during my first hair transplant. This time around I'm not nearly as impatient or concerned. I think it's because I've already got a reasonable amount of hair up top and I'm just waiting for the icing on the cake so to speak.

Hi,

 

Ive posted some pics, 9 months post op, to

 

Hair Restoration Journal -9 Months Post Op

 

Overall, Im VERY happy. Given my situation I have very conservative goals. It was a long wait, and the growth was slow - possibly due to scaring from previous surgeries.

 

more pics on the link, but Ive attached 2 pics for a direct BEFORE and AFTER.

 

I guess my crown continues to thin, and what the hell. Ive stopped taking finesteride -was too concerned about man-boobs. Maybe that was eating too many pies! who knows. Cant be arsed taking a pill each day.

 

Comments welcome!!

 

All the best.

Crown is shedding now as well.. oh well. At least Im happy with the Hair line Dr Feller sorted out for me.

 

Hope everyone is well.

 

Am looking forward to watching Rooney's progress almost as much as I was my own!!

piano,

 

I just had a look at your updated photos. Congratulations! Dr. Feller did a fantastic job. In looking at your profile, it seems you're not using any medication to stabilize your hair loss. Do you have plans for future work to address the thinning crown?
