Senior Member SunnyCool3 Posted January 7, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2015 Even in the pics it doesn't look red at all for you. Another 4 to 6 weeks before real fun begins. Early growth is a good sign. I do not have any goal set however I think that approx 4000 grafts will give a good foundation. Being Norwood 5 A (not sure exactly), I believe 6000 to 7000 grafts are required for the full coverage. So let's see!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member hirsute87 Posted January 8, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted January 8, 2015 Coming along nicely, I'm just a few weeks behind you and echo the same progress. Scar minimal, back to old routine. Exercise included! Whew, I did ease back into it though. And I got my first pimple the other day, went away a day later. Some shock loss nothing too dramatic though, and now just the waiting game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member hirsute87 Posted January 8, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted January 8, 2015 I went to Dr. Gabel and I posted about in the forum but don't have a profile or any pics for privacy reasons. But really feel great about the whole experience, Dr. Gabel was great and my experience mirrored that of SteelBlue7 and OtherSyde both of who have posts on this board with their results... these two actually inspired my initial consultation with Dr. Gabel, especially OtherSyde, his very thorough posting on his two HTs with Gabel really helped me as I researched.

Senior Member KO Posted January 22, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted January 22, 2015 Good luck on your evolution. Do you have a top-down pic showing the crown along with the mid-scalp pre-op?

Senior Member Squatch Posted February 4, 2015 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) Here are some three month shots. Ya the big red spot.....Of course I hit my head on something yesterday. I still don't know which is new growth and native hairs are. Still getting random ingrown hairs. I must say the worst part of the process is the waiting. The scar is getting lighter. I would like to shave the sides to a 3 or 4 next time. It shouldn't be a problem. I think at four months my haircut will be more normal looking.

Senior Member Squatch Posted February 4, 2015 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 4, 2015 Just for kicks I tried some Toppik at this three month point. Had to lay it on pretty thick with my short hair.:eek: Dr.Gabel 3972 FUT 11/3/14 Progress/Results Below http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177388-3972-fut-dr-gabel.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Loags79 Posted February 4, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted February 4, 2015 Progressing well. I threw out toppik, its awful stuff. You should try hairmax concealer instead. my HT thread: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/175267-dr-radha-fut-3261-grafts-photo-word-heavy.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member SunnyCool3 Posted February 4, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted February 4, 2015 Looking good my friend. Coming along nicely. Pls see if you could get similar shot which you posted for 2.5 months post OP & pre OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Loags79 Posted February 4, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted February 4, 2015 Toppik is like black chalk powder. It only sits on your scalp make your head look dirty and its just horrible stuff to use. Hairmax has actual fibres that bond to your hair. Give it a try. my HT thread: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/175267-dr-radha-fut-3261-grafts-photo-word-heavy.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
