Regular Member BoomerSooner Posted July 14, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted July 14, 2013 I'll be sitting at 6 months on the 17th this week and I haven't seen much progress since 5 months or overall really so far. I am on proscar ⅓ pill 3x per week. What should I be expecting up to this point?

Senior Member Mickey85 Posted July 14, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2013 At 6 months you should have had alot more growth...

Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted July 14, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2013 Boomer, It's good to see you are using restorative treatments in addition to hair transplant surgery. While you'd normally expect to see a bit more growth for 6 months, remember that your results are only 40% matured at this point in time, and you still have 6 months to grow.

Senior Member KO Posted July 14, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2013 Yeah, I'd hope to see more growth, but be patient, some grow later than others.

Curious, Who took ur stitches out? And how long did it take for the scar to heal and your hair to hide it from anyone at work? Happy growing? w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member wolfsatplay Posted October 18, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2013 Almost forgot do you have pictures of the back and top (at the back) I am very interested in Dr Wong's results and by all accounts they're the usual high standard. cheers, w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member BoomerSooner Posted October 18, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2013 Wolf , I actually drove to my mother's house to have her take them out. I don't trust too many people with that stuff haha. Id say that the scar was getting the least noticeable was around 6-8 months or so. The hair was long enough to cover the scar at around 4 months.

Regular Member BlackAmish111 Posted October 18, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2013 Dude that looks great! I was scared for ya after seeing your 6 months and thought all the "Just wait -your only half way there" -was just lip service. Guess I was wrong... That also greatly inspires me cause I just hit 6months 2 days ago and although somewhat happy, I'm still needing toppik pretty regularly. Here's hopin!

Senior Member Nick153452 Posted October 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted October 20, 2013 I think this case is going to be one of those patience-is-key examples that we throw around the forum at people who talk about progress at 4-5-6 months.
