Regular Member JohnSmith90 Posted July 13, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted July 13, 2015 I did 3200 grafts 2 weeks ago. Still haven't experienced shock hairloss but I guess that is coming. Could anyone take a look. The results seem weird. I know it's early but still.... I was told it could take up to 18 months especially on the crown.

Regular Member feldeghast Posted July 13, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted July 13, 2015 Looks totally fine to me - very clean and seems well healed after 2 weeks. I had 4000 grafts done 50 days ago - some shock loss initially around the recipient area then shedding began in earnest after 4 weeks. Yours all looks good to me though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Blake Bloxham Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hey John, Congrats on the procedure! Like Feld said above, this looks very normal for 2 weeks. As far as the shedding and growth is concerned: you can expect the grafts to shed anytime between day 10 and the end of month 2. Some people are fortunate and get some growth of the grafts before they shed, and these patients seem to shed a bit later. Others seem to have a few grafts that, for whatever reason, don't seem to shed. Regardless, it has no effect on the outcome of the procedure. After they have shed by the end of month 2, the new grafts will start growing around month 3. You'll usually be able to see the new growth some time around month 4. Keep in mind that the hairs these follicles produce are very thin and wispy at first. They will continue thickening and shaping until around month 12. This is when you can expect to see the "final results." Although it can sometimes take up to 14-18 months to really appreciate the outcome. So everything looks normal for now. From here, it's all a waiting game. Nothing to do but relax and grow! Good luck! Dr. Blake Bloxham is recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member pkipling Posted July 14, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2015 As the others said, everything looks totally normal. The best thing you can do for yourself at this point is to try and completely forget about your hair. While the waiting game is the hardest part of a hair transplant, the first couple months really do go by very fast. The more you can try to preoccupy yourself with other thoughts (over the next couple months especially), the happier you'll be. It's really hard for me to believe that it's already been almost a year since my hair transplant. Time really does fly, so just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Syltsnubben Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Hi John Smith, I am considering doing a hair transplant with Merdan Celik as well (through Hair Istanbul), and I would really like to get in touch with you first. Are you happy with the results? I'm Swedish too! Halsningar Rikard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JohnSmith90 Posted November 2, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 2, 2015 Hej! Ja jag ?r n?jd ?n s? l?nge. Allt l?kte bra och det finns inga s?r eller n?got. Dem var j?ttebra. Jag har bara inte f?tt resultat jag ?nskar p? hj?ssan men det ?r det v?rsta omr?det. Det tar uppemot ett ?r att se resultat d?r. Har du pratat med Halim eller hur kom du i kontakt med dem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syltsnubben Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Tack for ditt snabba svar! Jag har pratat med Halim ett par ganger, och det jag reagerade over var att de ar sa mycket billigare an sina konkurrenter, samt att Istanbul Hair Clinic pastar att de ar oseriosa och har snott fore- och efterbilder. Men det viktigaste ar trots allt att lakaren ar bra. Och du tyckte att Merdan Celik gav ett professionellt intryck? Pa vilket satt har du inte fatt onskat resultat?
