Senior Member Transhair Posted March 22, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted March 22, 2015 I think a number that low is a bit unusual, but it's still just 4 months. If you only have like 100 out of your 2000 grafts growing by month 5, though, I think it would definitely be getting into failure territory.

Senior Member Cryingoutloud Posted March 22, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted March 22, 2015 What are the odd's of a refund? Seriously?? Mate, get a grip. It's 4 months. I would bet every penny you paid that the reputable surgeon who did your HT gave you a complete list of post-operative instructions and that you did enough research to know how long it takes to get an idea of how successful your procedure has been. The word "refund" has no business being in your vocabulary at this stage. Try swapping it for "patience". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Spanker Posted March 22, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted March 22, 2015 Posts like this are not useful. No, it doesn't look good, but when people show concern and want real advice, you need to post usable photos pre op and post op and your current situation. Luckily, this is where the magic happens so you have hope. Have you reached out to your doc? What is he saying?

Senior Member Garageland Posted March 25, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted March 25, 2015 You need to relax. How you can count five hairs new hairs in amongst areas where you had pre existing hair is beyond me and the photos can't tell us anything. 4 months is just the very start for most people so you shouldn't be concerned or talking of refunds. By 8-10 months you will have a much better idea of where you are at until then you need to be patient like others say.

I only have a few 100 hair's in front where the 2,000 grafts transplanted went in at. The hair I already have is about 4 inches long each. Easy to move my old hair and see if any new hair has broken through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
