Senior Member cachaco Posted June 22, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted June 22, 2013 4 month update for the scar. Things continue improving in the area that had problems on the right side. All the other areas are much better and was hard to take shots so only posting shots of the right side.

Senior Member Cant decide Posted July 11, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) Looks great!! Especially for 5 months. What was your average density transplanted? I would guess about 45 grafts per sq cm.

Senior Member cachaco Posted July 12, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hi there @Can't-decide: It was around 40 grafts per sq cm. I think I have also recovered some of the old hair by being more disciplined with the minox, better hair products, vitamins and non stressing so that together with the good results should put me in a good spot I hope. @tacolinowest: The scar continues improving slowly. Still red but at the back and left it has hair all through. The right side still not ideal but want to wait a couple more months before making a call. I do not think I'd go for a scar correction. If I ever get hair greedy I might get some FUE and put some grafts in that right side to see how it goes. I have to go back to South America next year so I might see the same Dr. if I go back and feel I want to put some grafts in the scar. I'll try to put some scar photos soon.It is much harder on my own so I need someone to help me which is a good sign Dr. Rene Rodriguez, Bogota - Colombia 1940 grafts FUT Feb 2013 Minoxidil Foam twice a day Keto 2% twice a week Biotin supplements My Hair Restoration Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member cachaco Posted August 18, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 18, 2013 Hi everyone, My 6-month update below. Not a big change from month 5 but definitely a little bit more density. Based on what I heard about crowns in general, density should improve in the next few months Cheers Dr. Rene Rodriguez, Bogota - Colombia 1940 grafts FUT Feb 2013 Minoxidil Foam twice a day Keto 2% twice a week Biotin supplements My Hair Restoration Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member cachaco Posted October 14, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hello everyone, 8 months update. Things continue progressing slowly but progressing nevertheless. I've been happy to go out without concealer a few days without any issues Some angles look better than other but it looks relatively good most times.

Senior Member GreatPelo Posted February 14, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted February 14, 2014 Cachaco, I hope you are taking Propecia in order to avoid further loss. You seem very young and to chase hair loss in the crown area is no fun. Make sure you speak with your doctor about medical therapy to help slow down hair loss of native hair in the area. Best of luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member JobSmith Posted March 21, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi Cachaco. I'd love to hear how you like your hair now, more than 2 years later. Also, how much did Dr Rodriguez charge? (I was quoted 5200kCOP by Dr Londo?o in Medellin.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
