Senior Member Shuriken Posted March 22, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted March 22, 2018 hope you are getting good result! well done...and share some before after pics Thank you! Finally I reached my 3rd month. Here are my Day 90 (March 22) pictures! The next months are going to be interesting and exciting! Some notes: I'm on Day 35 only with Finasteride, these pictures (and the rest) are with flash if it ain't obvious and I always trim my hair that's why it seems it doesn't grow in these pictures (I gotta cope with the ugly duckling phase which is now over.)

Senior Member Shuriken Posted May 23, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted May 23, 2018 Hello everyone. I just hit Day 152 today (May 23) or 5 months. Here are some pictures. The first one is without flash and the improvement has been tremendous really! These are with flash. There’s nothing to hide. I am pretty much contented especially looking at my previous photos. Some people notice it too and I look forward to how they will become in the next months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member VicTNYC Posted May 25, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hey man, congratulations on pulling the trigger and getting the procedure done, your results so-far look very good and very promising! Got a question for you....I have noticed that several people that require more grafts , say 4-5000 grafts, have to do the procedure in 2-days at ASMED, my question is: Do you think you could have done it and tolerated and handled the pain and discomfort with a 2nd procedure the following day/morning with more injections , extractions and grafts implanted given how sensitive your scalp was from undergoing the 1st days procedure? Thanks in advance for any helpful reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for any helpful reply! Hi, Im sorry for the late response. I think it’s better to ask the others because I personally had it one day. I’ll tell you that you wont (and don’t expect to) have a great sleep on the first day. Make sure to bring your own neck pillow because the one they will you is not of good quality. During the procedure of course you are constantly injected with anesthesia (when it wears off it really hurts) They will also give you painkillers if you need to take any. (I personally didn’t take any) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for any helpful reply! I would say the second day is slightly worse pain wise, but all in all it's not that bad. I found the first few days the worst post HT, but alleviated this with regular painkillers. I had more pain at the dentist then I experienced with the HT :eek: 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

I have seen your photos and thread and looks good, congrats! Keep the updates and photos coming! I absolutely hate needles and am a little concerned with the injections especially on a an already 1st day sore irritated swollen scalp undergoing more injections and surgery the 2nd next day. Did they provide any anti-anxiety medication prior to surgery and if so, did it help with lessening the stress/worry of the initial injection? Did you have any IV sedation at all or was it just local injection for both days? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have any IV sedation at all or was it just local injection for both days? Thanks I'm not a lover of needles either, but it really is not that bad. I was given a xanax to calm the nerves prior. The injections take a few minutes, that's all. To be honest the excitement of seeing others the day previous coming out of surgery and knowing 24 hours later it would be me - sort of put the worry of the Op itself to one side. I've read on the forum of others detailing the the pain, stress and worry of Pre Op and Post Op up to 12 months. I found it a walk in the park. Once you get past 10 days, the recovery is all but done (my case anyway), just then the dreaded shed and the wait. Good luck. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

I guess the short period of discomfort/pain, if there is any, comes with a long-term reward that makes it worth it. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I didn't opt for the IV sedation but I wish I had, second day was pure agony for me but everyone is different with different pain thresholds. The xanax helps your nerves but not the pain.

Without they are not bad at all. I also had a haircut last Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Shuriken Posted September 28, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 28, 2018 Here are my 9th month pictures, taken today September 28. Sorry I was late. Tbh I wish I had more. I am having hair greed. With harsh lighting you can see all these spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payam Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 That is not hair greed and if anyone tells you anything else they are working for Asmeds marketing department. With your hair calibre and number of grafts you should have more, but maybe it is not too late. You should still wait a couple of months I think. Can you take a picture with your hair pulled back to reveal the hairline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Mick50 Posted September 28, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) Be better to take pics with flash off with natural light coming into the room ,wet your comb so hair is slightly damp then comb it back so we can see the hair-line ,using flash can give a distorted result . Edit: looked at your other pictures I see you have ones with flash off as well , try to take pics in a brighter room with natural light coming in ,and as I said comb the hair back slightly damp best way to view the hair-line Edited September 28, 2018 by Mick50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Shuriken Posted September 29, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2018 Just took some quick photos. It’s not really bad in normal lighting conditions. Lol I don’t have a clip I’m sorry but here’s what I got. Hair slightly damp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Der3k7 Posted October 4, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted October 4, 2018 It looks like you grew in well and he squared off your hairline pretty good. I'm getting 5000 grafts done by him next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
