Senior Member wheretogo Posted August 23, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2018 Hey SPEX, is it really essential to wait?, the new procedure isn't at the same place and there is a limit on how the frontal hair could cover the crown area. if the donor area healed properly you still advised to wait?

Senior Member Mick50 Posted August 23, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yea most reputable clinics wont operate until the 12 month anyway , for the sake of 4 months best to see how things are at 12 months , the head and body need time to fully recover ,there are enough "what ifs" in this game why add more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member wheretogo Posted August 23, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2018 I am about 10 days after six months mark, got a meeting with the Dr next week, just was wondering about doing the mid scalp and crown area because it's a different area than before so i thought it's not related.

Up to you ,but always best to give it the full 12 months ,OK maybe not the same area but the donor needs time to recover and who knows if the blood flow might be affected, guy posting on here at the the moment who has had shock loss even tho that area wasn't transplanted, as I say a hair transplant is as much about the psychological aspect ,and why add stress ,wait the full 12 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member wheretogo Posted August 23, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2018 No, it's before the transplant. i hope six months is early, there is progress and it's on time i guess and i know i'm not on any meds or minoxi so i need to be patient. i don't really know how to judge the progress, with camera flash on harsh light?, without flash?, wet, dry hair?, each one change the outcome immensely.

You're at the point where different lighting will make a big difference , I didn't do much much ,like most guys kept on checking progress ,my progress was quite steady ,I never took Finasteride ,tried minoxidil decided the stuff was evil, after a few days heavy bags under my eyes , disappeared thankfully ,apart form that just tried to relax and let things develop .
