Regular Member jbny Posted October 18, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted October 18, 2013 I have been reading these forums for many years. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed for helping me to make my decision about my HT surgery. I hope that my website will be as helpful to others as many have been to me. I underwent surgery with Dr. Rahal on October 10, 2013. I am now one week post-op after receiving 3774 grafts via FUT. I am looking forward to sharing this experience with anyone who is interested.

Regular Member jbny Posted October 24, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 24, 2013 Thanks for the replies. I am very excited about what is ahead and am very satisfied so far with what has been done. I got my stitches out today, a little discomfort but nothing bad at all. Here are some updated photos. I have lost quite a few hairs already from my first shower and also from massaging away some of the scabs. Unfortunate but I knew coming in that this is how it goes. The detail is also hard to see with my camera. The density looks a lot better in person. I will try to take some higher quality photos soon so you can get a better idea of what it looks like. Cheers!

Senior Member OtherSyde Posted October 24, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted October 24, 2013 Wow, looking awesome in all aspects - density, hairline, thin scar, etc. This will likely be a home run! Blog: Dr. Gabel Thrice (2010, 2013, 2016) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member jbny Posted November 10, 2013 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 10, 2013 Things are going pretty well for me. Ive lost the majority of my grafted hairs but I have many that are refusing to fall out. Who knows, maybe they took root but I wont be surprised if they all fall out. I started using rogaine at the two week mark. It gives my head a nice tingling sensation. The scar is better than I could have hoped for. I had a haircut down to a # 2 two weeks ago and the scar is barely visible. I took the best pictures that I could by myself with my phone. There is still some soreness in the scar area but nothing bad at all. Recipient area is still quite numb but I can tell that a lot of the sensation is coming back. This month has flown by and now I have to settle in and look ugly for a few months, but I cant wait to see what happens. Until next time, here are some pictures.
