Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted August 9, 2018 Valued Contributor Share Posted August 9, 2018 Congratulations. That’s one good looking head of hair. Especially when you look back at where your journey began and the amount of grafts used. Was this strip or FUE? I’d really like to get a clearer look at that hairline if at all possible. Congrats again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member un13 Posted August 9, 2018 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 9, 2018 Just now, Seesaw said: What a terrific result!! Amazing density. well, density is nothing special. I have to keep hair long on top so it will look like that. I can make only certain hairstyles so they look good on me. Dont forget that i need to cover pretty big area with only 5,5k grafts. Also i need to keep donor area atleast 2 sm long so it will look OK. I need to compromise to look normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get an estimate of how much donor you might have left? Is it something you’d prefer to use now to work on density or would you rather use it later to chase further hair loss? Is it something that even bothers you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member un13 Posted August 12, 2018 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 12, 2018 i dont know how many grafts i have. But whatever it is , its not much and i saved it for later. I was thinking about it, and thats why i went with only 1800 grafts last operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Rappy Posted August 13, 2018 Regular Member Share Posted August 13, 2018 Un13 Your comment about density made me very curious. Do you think you can take closer and good pictures of when the density does not look so good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Curlinginthesquatrack Posted January 3, 2019 Regular Member Share Posted January 3, 2019 Considering you’re a nw5 and the before pictures, there’s no way I’d consider this less than a perfect result. if you had stabilized sooner in life with hair loss, you’d maybe have faired even better? Awesome result. i only had 1560 grafts but just recession in and around hairline with course thick hair. Hoping it’s enough for density and fill in the hairline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member CosmoKramer Posted June 7, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted June 7, 2019 Did Dr Demirsoy tell you how many more grafts you may have in your donor for any possible future procedure? Do you think you could get another done and not thin out your back and sides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
