Dr Blake Bloxham Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Hi Everyone, Many of the members and frequent contributors to the forums are obviously very knowledgeable about the hair transplant process. At this point, it is probably difficult for most to even remember a time when they were not "fluent" in the world of hair transplant surgery. But think back to when you first discovered hair restoration or first began your own research process. It is overwhelming and many ask themselves: "Where do I even begin?" Most patients have many "frequently asked" questions about even the most basic aspects of surgery; "How is a hair transplant performed?" "What will it feel like?" "What will I look like after and when can I go back to work?" "When will I see results?" To try and help some of those new to the hair transplant process, I put together a video narrating one patient's "hair transplant journey" from day 0 to month 6. While it does not cover every single aspect of his process, it does touch on the highlights of what most researching patients want to know. This includes: the steps of the surgery itself and the surgical experience; the immediate post-op; getting back to work; the beloved "ugly duckling" phase; and growth and results. The patient in the video underwent a 2,500 graft FUT mega-session, and his 6 month results are included as well; so those who are more knowledgeable about the process may want to watch just to see these. Thanks for watching and commenting. I truly hope new members finds this helpful. Dr. Blake Bloxham Feller & Bloxham Medical, PC 1 Dr. Blake Bloxham is recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

Hi Upshall, Try not to be too discouraged at 5 months. I don't know anything about your case specifically, but 5 months is still very, very early. I have seen patients with very little progress at 5-6 months who end up doing very well in the end. I would say this patient is a little ahead of the "curve;" I have many guys who do not look like this at 6 months and still end up looking great by 18.

Here's hoping I'm so lucky in a few months Hi Recession, Yes, he healed very well. While scar healing is dependent on physiology, I agree that it can be hyped online. Most patients heal very well from both types of surgery and typically still have the ability to go quite short in the back. Thanks for watching and commenting.
