Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted February 26, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted February 26, 2012 Okay, just wondering what you guys think here...Ive attached one picture...contrary to what I said, as I said I would not post anymore till the 2 month mark because Im trying not to dwell on it...this maybe impossible to answer, BUT here is my question You will be able to see from the picture I have some small beard like hairs.that are certainly different lengths than the other hairs...I have not had a hair cut since my surgery 5.5 weeks ago...Im wondering if this is transplanted hair growing, or shocked hair coming back??? Could be a combo of both as I did have quite a bit of recipient shock...anyway, I think this is good!! Newhairplease!!

Senior Member orlhair1 Posted February 26, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hard to tell NHP. I know that at about that stage, I had a lot of native hair growing back, some of which had shed following the transplant....that stage where it looks worse before it gets better. It seems that it would be really early for transplanted hairs to be growing. I say my first transplanted hairs starting to come out at about 8 weeks which is considered really early. Like you said, it is good either way because you have hairs growing out No doubt you are on the upswing now!

He has a lot of patients that have had bad HT's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member BaldWhisky Posted February 27, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted February 27, 2012 Is there a way you can have a look at a spot where you certainly didn't have hair before the HT? Exactly at 6 week I spotted my new first hairs in an area it hadn't been growing for years so it's not impossible that it's a new one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
