5 month update - Dr Rahal - 4597 FUT

[HairFusion]

Well folks it has been 5 months. I still cannot believe I spent thousands of dollars and willingly had my head cut open to have this done but it has been worth it. The difference between my pre-op state and today is there to see and it feels great to know that I can still continue to expect more growth. I look at my pre-op pics and cannot seem to justify how I could lead a normal life as a 30 year old looking like that.

My crown is still as bald as an egg but at least I dont have to look at it in the mirror everyday so that is some compromise

I have posted more pictures in my web log which you can access via this link: http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/journal.asp?CopyID=7759&WebID=2258

 

Here are some pictures comparing my pre-op state with today. Sorry the lighting is not the same but the difference is still notable.

Congrats things look like they are coming along very nicely!!

A huge/wide area to cover and 4,500 grafts is a relatively small number for that region.... and still such a remarkable turn around! Any plans for more? You may want to experiment with dermmatch and toppik. Those concealers can go along way - especially someone with your hair color.

Great progress at 5 months.

[InfoSeeker2]

Wow! You must have good hair on donor area to cover all that part.

 

Very impressive!

GOD... What a transformation!!! In just 5 months, Thats bloody quick :eek:

Whelp, this proves it. Dr. Rahal knows something we don't. Or he is into black magic, voodoo, or is in contact with aliens and using their science.

Beautiful. Great work by Dr R and congrats to you sir!

 

 

Was your donor density well above average?

[RCWest]

That is outstanding for only 5 months! You have a LONG way to go before the final result.

@aaron -

At this point I am going to wait for the full 18 months, see how I look and then go from there. It would be another big financial commitment so would probably see if I can budget for it at that time.

I used to use concealers at one point before my HT and found it too much of a hassle so I prefer to trade it off with a slightly thinning hair look. Lets see how much growth I experience in the next few months.

 

@KO - I was classified as having good donor density rather than excellent donor density. So I would probably put the illusion of fullness to Dr Rahal's expertise rather than my donor. I was told that I had great donor hair quality though.

 

@All - Thanks for all the positive feedback, it does pump me up !!

That is excellent transformation!! Congrats!!

Nice one pal really happy for you. The jump between 4 and 5 months is great and there will be a lot more growth to come i think if you have another few thousand grafts in the crown you could be on for one of the best transformations ever with you being a nw6/nw7. Have you any idea how many grafts you have left available in the donor?

[SugarHighs]

Looks very good man!

I think Dr R is fantastic, the results posted are great, what a skill and talent he is.

Congratulations

Happy Growing
