kirby0433 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hey guys, Finally decided to go ahead with it. Decided id give myself a nice little gift before I ship off for bootcamp next month. ....I went with Dr krenitsky and his staff at bosley in Ohio. I like the work that he had done and talking with some of his patients sure did help. We went with 1236 graft to redesign the frontal hairline and add some thickness. I had the surgery done January 11th, I will be posting some pre and post op pics here in the next day or so. -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirby0433 Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 Quick update- starting to get into the 4th day since surgery, experiencing quite a bit of itching the last 2 days, which is a good sign of healing. Donor area is feeling better with each passing day. I go back to the office to have my sutures removed on the 20th, he'll also be examaning the grafted area to make sure everything is fine... as for pictures, I will be taking a flash drive with me to the office so I can gather all the pictures he took pre and post op.. I will upload them later that night - Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirby0433 Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 ok guys.. i have a picture of both pre and post op. let me know how you think the work looks and how the hairline will fit with my look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirby0433 Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Ok so i took a few more after i got out of the shower (9 days post op).. practically all scabbing has fell off, im left with just a slight pinkish scalp and a little bit of itching. Just got the sutures removed this morning. BTW the doc used the trico closure technique. So far im happy with the procedure, just hope everything grows in nicely. In case anyone was wondering, i do have plans to have a second procedure done in the next couple years to add some density. Thoughts?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Johnny_B Posted January 20, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted January 20, 2011 Good luck with growth..... See how this turns out at the 12 month mark and take it from there. Keep those updates coming in..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Spanker Posted January 21, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think you should have a good future plan. Looking at your hair and your age (I assume 27) that you should be prepared to have several proceedures over your lifetime. Good luck to you.

Senior Member Levrais Posted January 21, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think its a good design. I had around 1500 grafts to the front also, we'll have to wait and see how it looks. How many days post op will you be when you start boot camp? 5700 FUE in 3 procedures with Dr. Bisanga View my patient website: http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=1874 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Spanker Posted February 2, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted February 2, 2011 Not sure about the doc but it looks good so far, just have to wait it out. It is definately an age appropriate hair line. I am an online representative for Dr. Raymond Konior who is an elite member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

Senior Member Spanker Posted June 2, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted June 2, 2011 Thanks for the update. Looks like you are about on schedule for average. Not great early growth, but many people don't start growing well until about now. Good luck.
