Senior Member HarryHonolulu Posted September 19, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Hey all I’m curious - to those of you who had multiple FUEs over time... - how did the second FUE procedure compare to the first? Was it pretty much exactly the same? - how did the second procedure impact your donor area? Are you super thinned out now (particularly for those higher Norwood’s with average donor such as myself) - did the second procedure impact your previous grafts from the first procedure in any way? - how long did you wait to do it? thanks follicular friends Edited September 19, 2018 by HarryHonolulu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 19, 2018 Administrators Share Posted September 19, 2018 Secondly procedure actually went better than the first, the donor area is thinner, but not obvious. Subsequent procedures had no impact on previously transplanted grafts. 18 months each time. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 19, 2018 Administrators Share Posted September 19, 2018 It wasn’t a day and night improvement, but there was certainly improvement. If youre 80% satisfied you may be 100% by a year, but if youre 50% satisfied than the chances are you wont be satisfied. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

I experienced the same thing on my second FUE. I was actually really disappointed after year 1 but then extremely satisfied after Year 2. My first FUE I think I had quicker results but it could be that it just seemed better because I now had a hairline, which was a drastic improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
