Regular Member Actonradar2012 Posted April 4, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) Hi i just had a week ago my Third Hair transplant, this was to lower my hair line 1 cm and fill in my temples and just give more density to the rest of the area, to do my new hairline was 1500 grafts, i wanted a better hairline so thats why i told Dr. Keene to focus more on that area, and the 600 remaingin was to fill in a bit the rest, im very happy so far, can i comb my hair after showering now? or not yet? Hair Restoration Site for FeBelFor ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ok so now this is the 5 month post op pic i took just today, is this going slow? my temples are not filling up as the sides are, is this something it will resolve during the next couple of months? kinda worried here As you can see in the progress picture i post below the big difference from whats growing, and what was already there, and i love it, but my temples was my biggest concern i told dr keene, and not seeing them grow as they should or as they look in the first week post op im getting a bit anxious Edited August 23, 2013 by Actonradar2012 Visit Here My Blog With my HT Photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member nativeremdies Posted April 6, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted April 6, 2013 Personally.... if it was me I would have re-enforced not lower the hair line. Curious what was Dr. Kleen's recommendation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Raymond2013 Posted April 17, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted April 17, 2013 Congrats! I think judging from the progress of your timeline that it's safe to say you'll get good results and be where you want to be. Are you using any hair loss products? I've been thinking about starting to use "revita" but it's so expensive and "nizoral" is impossible to get ahold of. Wishing you the best. Good luck! 2500 grafts + Acell/PRP progress with Dr.Cooley 4/12/13 http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/170209-my-2500-grafts-hair-transplant-w-prp-acell-treatment-journey-dr-cooley.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Actonradar2012 Posted May 6, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 6, 2013 Well im almost 6 week post op! im ataching some photos of my 1 month mark, i started to get a few ingrown hairs or pimples were my new hair was placed, which i had never had a problem like that, so Dr. Keene prescribed me with dixocicline a ten day treatment, its gotten a lot better now, ill post some new pics tonight! Left Side Right Side Top i have a question do the pimple endanger my grafts? when i had to put the warm towel on top of them for them to drain then clean, does that mean i lost some grafts their? at 5 week post op?
