Taco,

 

Congratulations on your recent hair transplant procedure with Dr. Feller. Everything looks great and I trust you'll be very pleased with your results when they grow in.

 

I look forward to following your progress.

 

Heal and grow well :-).

How did the hairline look when Feller drew it on champ?

[tacolinowest]

there was so much going on i didnt notice it was so high, its about 1/2 an inch behind my old hairline, but those hairs were very miniaturized , i no that you need more hair to bring it down a little but maybe it woulda been a good idea

[krisl]

Dude don't worry about it. We went with a highly experienced surgeon, who does these kind of ops day in day out for a living, and has had countless amounts of positive evidence posted backing his work. No hairline is perfect and with the amount of aggressive hairloss we've had, it's only sensible to give a conservative hairline.

 

I was super analytical the first few weeks, but once you get over this tricky period you'll settle into it. The staples at the back were such a b****, sleeping on them so frustrating, but once out it was a relief.

 

All will be good mate.

[tacolinowest]

thanks krisl,, maybe i can lower it at a diff time, but for now ill jus try n be positive about it, glad to see your progress is so good

[tacolinowest]

[tacolinowest]

i dont know what i was more excited about, getting the procedure done, or getting those dam staples out

[Mickey85]

Have you gently showered the scar area after getting the staples out?

[tacolinowest]

no, was gonna wait till tonight

[NoTakeBacks]

The actual linear scar looks pretty good! When the redness and puncture marks heal from the staples, and any shockloss recovers, you should be in good shape. :cool:

[tacolinowest]

thought i would do an update, this is the recipient area day 15

[tacolinowest]

and the worst part of the donor scar day 15 what do you guys think

[TommyLucchese]

Think it looks fine champ, now stop worrying about it and see where you are in a year or so

[tacolinowest]

Just a quick update,, alot of times ill shed hair but it's 2 hairs connected at the root, heres a pic,, has this happened to anyone else

I used to get those all the time until I started on meds, but that of course was not HT related.

Congrats on the procedure buddy! Looks like clean work as always from Dr. Feller......I can't wait to track your progress along the way!! Chin up, the post-op "kinda a b*#ch" part goes by way faster than you'd ever think!! =)

[tacolinowest]

thanks agent,, i will be updating every month, this ugly phase couldn't come at a worst time, its summer but ill thank myself later hopefully

[Actonradar2012]

its normal shedding, i always got them that way, dont worry!

[Gettinold]

normal shedding, worst thing you can do is worry and stress. Buy a cab driver hat, some plastic rimmed glasses and be a hipster for the summer..nobody will know the difference..

[tacolinowest]

hahaha yes i spent about 300$ in hats so far, i will be updating with the 1 month mark in a few days, but will have to take a break after that, i think im on this website to much it makes me think about my ht 24/7,, shedding has slowed a little and shock loss continues in the donor

[tacolinowest]

1 month has passed and alot of the grafts have shed, but not all of them, the shock loss in the donor seems to have stopped and hopefully it will return, the transplanted area feels normal no pain no tighness nothing, the scar is a little sore but not much at all, here are some pics
