Jemaddox Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Everything is going good so far. I am still recovering in the hotel. The Doctor and staff are great. I went over these boards for over 10 years to decide what to do. I'm so glad I choose Dr. Konior. My surgery was this past Thursday. Here are some pics from today. One of them is dry from like a month ago pre surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member HairThereAndEverywhere Posted June 10, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted June 10, 2017 Lookin good. Seems like you got a lot of coverage for 3000 grafts. Was the goal just to gain density or fill in the front area? You, like me, seemed to have plenty of hair before your HT. People were probably like why are you even doing this. But you'll show them in 10 months! Are you on Propecia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member TimTaylor Posted June 10, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted June 10, 2017 Nice, you will be a happy dude a year from now. Dr. K's work is flawless post op. Did you get pretty much the frontal third done, or did Dr. K place graft as far back as the mid scalp and crown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemaddox Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have some thinning in the crown that he put a few hundred grafts in. I had gotten off propecia for like 7 years to have my kids but have been on it again for a year and a half. I also using kirklands minox extra strength liquid. I wanted to get more density and to strengthen my hairline. I don't believe he lowered it that much just made it solid. I pretty much just told the doctor to do what he thought was best and that I trusted him. He went from the front and all the way back to the crown. Thanks for the feedback guys this was a big day for me and one I have wanted for probably 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemaddox Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 I was told not to shave the sides so you can actually see if I get any shock loss there. Plus I wear a hat to work so it will cover up the incision until it heals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Triple7 Posted June 11, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted June 11, 2017 Congratulations and good luck. You are lucky to be able to wear a hat at work. Dr. Konior has a great track record so I'm confident this will be an excellent result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Petedagreekchi Posted June 20, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted June 20, 2017 @jemaddox, any regrets so far? I just scheduled a FUT 1800 graft procedure with Dr K for next year. I'm so excited! I'm not going to shave to conceal things for work (I can't wear a hat like you), which said should work out fine considering the # of grafts I'm looking at.

Jemaddox Posted June 20, 2017 Author Share Posted June 20, 2017 No regrets at all. I'm glad I made the decision to do it and he is an awesome doctor. Just relax and wait, you will actually enjoy the day you have it done because you know your fixing an issue that has always bothered you. Plus IMO your having your procedure done by the best in the world so there is nothing to worry about. I'm a firefighter so I'm kind of nervous about going back to work even with the hat because I still have to take it off and put my helmet off and on throughout the day. But we will see how it goes. Please reach out if you have any questions brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
