Well, I have finally reached the 7 month mark. I did not post a 6 month update because I was very busy and really just never got around to it.

 

I can hardly believe that 7 months have already passed, and I am completely honest when I say that this was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My life has changed drastically, and the results at 7 months have greatly surpassed my expectations. My friends who knew about the procedure are as stunned as I am. I am able to style my hair in ways that I have not been able to do in close to 8 years. I can use styling products again, and I never worry about going out on a windy day. I don't think that I have worn a hat in about 3 months, and I'm not sure I will ever wear one again. Before I used to spend nearly 30 minutes a day trying to get the "right" style so I could go out in public. Now I spend 5 minutes tops, and my just really looks great.

 

My only concern was my left temple point not growing in as fast as my right, but I spoke with the Rahal clinic and he said not to worry, so I wont. I plan to visit them again next month for a follow up. I sent several pictures at the 6 month mark to Dr. Rahal's office, and the letter I recieved back from them made me feel even better than I already had. When your surgeon tells you that your results are "fantastic" for 6 months, it really makes you feel great, since there is still a lot of time for more growth and density.

 

These pics were taken about 2 days ago, with absolutely no concealer. There is just a bit of hair putty that I use. As a reference I posted the last picture, which was taken right before the surgery. My how things have changed. Take a look, and feel free to ask me any questions or shoot me any comments.

Wow, great result at only 7 months! Lots of grafts used, however. Did Dr. Rahal tell you how many you have left now for future procedures? Will your laxity allow another FUT, or do you have to stick with FUE? Anyway, now it`s actually time to celebrate. Congrats :)
