Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted April 28, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted April 28, 2015 Hi everyone just a quick update my details are not mega accurate as I'm kind of lost my self with everything over the years hair loss is not really something I think about anymore and haven't done for a long time but I really wanted to get a decent scar to end my journey. So I went in for scar revision last week with Dr Wong I've had 6 transplants now I wanted least amount of grafts out of scar as I wasn't fussed about more hair but 500 ish came out pushing me to over 11500 grafts Dr Wong said I could probably have another 5000 grafts out in future if I needed it as I'm a stretchy freak this also is probably why I don't get 1mm scars like a lot of you do so that's fair enough. I put about 480 in my crown and 20 in a scar in my chin from a old mma boxing scar on my face unfortunately I scratched one graft out of my chin while was sleeping but that's ok. Dr Wong just cut small patch of hair out of my crown and left me a long comb over to hide the work and my scar is invisible now but we all know scar size is not confirmed until about 6 months post op so fingers crossed. There's no point in adding pictures now as there's not much difference since my last op but I'll post new pics in 6 months. If you wanna see my journey please click link to my blog below. Oh one other thing I decided last year to stop using minoxidil after about 15 years of use I was a little concerned but felt it was worth the risk and would you believe it nothing happened I lost no hair at all so I'm rid of that drug now but i still use finesteride. Thanks Bonkerstonker! http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=1977 Update I'm now on 12200 Grafts, hair loss has been a thing of my past for years. Also I don't use minoxidil anymore I lost no hair coming off it. Reduced propecia to 1mg every other day. My surgeons were Dr Hasson x 4, Dr Wong x 2 Norton x1 I started losing my hair at 19 in 1999 I started using propecia and minoxidil in 2000 Had 7 hair transplants over 12200 grafts by way of strip but 700 were Fue From Norton in uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
