I was looking really bad 4-6 weeks in (attached) after it all shed. And then at 4 months things started to progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Craig2412 Posted January 10, 2020 Author Senior Member Share Posted January 10, 2020 Just over 10 months now and harder to see or notice any more improvements. I did get a haircut yesterday and it was the first time I’ve had quiet a bit taken off the top, especially towards the back. Any comments appreciated as always.

Senior Member jjsrader Posted January 11, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) You got very high growth rate. That's a good thing for your 1st surgery. Still - I see too many multi-hair grafts in your very frontal hairline zone. I thought Asmed techs were trimming and inspecting grafts under a microscope? Nope. Prob' the microscopes are just for show. No way they are looking microscopically w/high magnification at each graft and trimming down or looking at 1 haired grafts that have another hair dormant within the follicular unit under magnification. But as long as you are pleased w/your result that is all that matters. I don't see the ultra-refined hairline that I think Asmed is capable of - but he's not that involved intra-surgery. That written I don't think many layperson's on the street would even notice what we are all obsessed with. Enjoy your bouffant! Although your pre-transplant combover was kinda' hypnotic actually and quite unique! Edited January 11, 2020 by jjsrader spelling & things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, the combover didn’t look too bad in my early 20’s, but by my late 20’s it was getting to the point where it was clear I was trying to disguise and hide my hair loss. I had close people who had known me for years start telling me I need to change my hairstyle, but when there’s not much hair on top it’s hard apart from going for the shaved look and I can’t grow a beard either to compensate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member therealmvp2016 Posted January 12, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted January 12, 2020 congrats Craig. ASMED killed it. I got 3600 grafts from ASMED 23 October, so I'm almost 3 months post op... got a lot of thin hairs coming thru... ughhhhh the wait is killing me.. spending way too much time in front of the mirror looking for new growth... were u doing the same thing at 3 months? or did you somehow just not think about it ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you 😊 They were brilliant with me. Good luck and happy growing. I know the feeling I used to look in the mirror every single morning. I personally found months 4-6 probably was the biggest change with the hairline beginning to frame my face. I did start the gym one month after the transplant and found that really helped to keep my focus and concentration elsewhere. I didn’t take any time off work either for the first 6 months and that helped get me busy too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine what youre going through. It feels like an eternity. If I were you i wouldnt look in the mirror every day. Spread the days apart.
