Regular Member MisterSergio777 Posted March 25, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 25, 2014 Hii Guys Im finally back from Istanbul, I had a HT on saturday 22 , it took 10hours and i got 3500 grfts from donor and 552 from chest area. I'm very happy with the result , the doctor told me it will be very good after 9 months . just having trouble to sleep the first nights. What do you guys advise to use as minoxidil and other stuff without any bad side effects. in attachment some pics one day after the HT.:cool: U can see my pics before in this link: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/174158-hair-transplant-march-need-help.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted March 25, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted March 25, 2014 Sergio, Congratulations on the procedure! Thank you for sharing the images as well. I look forward to watching your case progress. Minoxidil (Rogaine) is a proven preventive hair loss medication. Side effects of this medication include: scalp dryness and itching, unwanted hair growth (in regions other than the scalp), low blood pressure, swelling, rapid heart rate, dizziness or light headedness, and skin redness. I think you should discuss starting minoxidil with your hair transplant surgeon. Surgeons have differing views when it comes to using and starting minoxidil in the post-operative period, and it would be best to follow your doctor's post-operative advice as closely as possible. Good luck!

Senior Member hsrp10 Posted March 27, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted March 27, 2014 stick out at least til day 10 if you can, a travel neck pillow helps a lot if you can place pillows/covers on your sides to block you from tossing and turning then maybe after day 7 go dense or go home Unbiased advice and opinions based on 25 plus years of researching and actual experience with hair loss, hair restoration via both FUT & FUE, SMP, scalp issues including scalp eczema & seborrheic dermatitis and many others HSRP10's favorite FUT surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr Hasson, Dr. Rahal HSRP10's favorite FUE surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr. Bisanga, Dr. Erdogan, Dr. Couto (*indicates actual experience with doctor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member LFC25 Posted March 27, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted March 27, 2014 Looks good, nice hairline. Exactly what I'm hoping to achieve. They're spaced out more than usual, did you ask for that? My doctor has advised me to just have the basic area covered then maybe do a 2nd procedure in the future to get more grafts for a denser hairline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member MisterSergio777 Posted March 27, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 27, 2014 Hii i wanted a hairline that was low and not high like some have and i didnt want the big forehead effect. I only had 4000 grafts to cover a big area, that's why they covered in higher density in the front and at the back its less and more spaced . anyway i want to have my hair short and buzzed and my expectations are not the hair of Bruno Mars or Elvis. if I have enough hair in 1 year to just have a hairline and keep short I'm more then happy if not i consider another next year to fill the empty places. at the back i had also a lot of tiny hears who are spreaded wide look at my other forum http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/174158-hair-transplant-march-need-help.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
