1 month post op with Dr Pong from Chiang Mai

[tarepanda]

i am now officially 1 month post op from my HT. some of my progress so far:

 

about 70-90% of the transplanted grafts had shed so far. why i am saying 70-90% is because it seems that about 90% of the grafts on my left receding hairline had shed, but only 70% on my right side.

 

shock loss on the recipient is slightly noticeable. but definitely not as bad as my donor area. i had a very bad shock loss at the scar line. i can feel that the shock loss in my donor area caused a smooth bald patch about 3cm long.. i am freaked out. the shock loss started from day 14. the shock loss seems to have stopped, or maybe is because not much hair left to be shocked out anymore.

 

started my rogaine on day 14. i usually apply to only the thinning area, now i am even applying it on my scar to help the shock loss grow back earlier.

 

i not only gonna wait for the newly transplanted hair to grow back, i also need to wait for my shocked hair at donor area to grow back. OMG!!!! DOUBLE combo emotional stress for me.

 

i am also on MSM 1000mg and biotin 1.3mg. i think this is post HT syndrome where i try to get on more n more hair growth supplement which i had never consider starting on pre HT.

 

another post HT syndrome which i believe most of us are having i.e. surfing this forum everyday for more than few hours. damn, this forum is more addictive than porn!!
