Regular Member Mike V Posted July 24, 2019 Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2019 Hello All! I spent winter of 2018/19 searching for the perfect hair transplant doctor. I am 25 years old and wanted to take care of my hair before it got too bad where it would be even more noticeable. During my shopping around, I came across Dr. Bloxhams practice. I knew very little about the procedures such as FUT and FUE. After leaving his office, I felt so comfortable. The honesty and knowledge he had was incredible. Dr. Bloxham makes sure that his hair transplants look good, not only a year after, but 20 years after surgery. I absolutely recommend Fellar and Bloxham Medical in Great Neck, NY. I have a link attached with photos from before surgery all the way to month 4. I am ONLY 4 months in and the growth so far is beyond incredible. I keep my sides short and you cannot see my scar at all. I will update this thread at month 5 and 6 for anyone interested. Dr. Bloxham- Thank you and your staff again for doing a wonderful job and being so honest. This process was seamless. Any questions- feel free to comment. https://www.icloud.com/photos/#03hc1Yq8w1ffGQSqifAscSmlA -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so minuscule and already healing incredibly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Mycroft Posted July 24, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted July 24, 2019 You seem like you've managed to cut your hair pretty damn short at only month four despite going the FUT route. Looks like you're going to have an amazing scar, and with such great early growth on top of that...you have to be getting a lot of comments.

Ive always done a lower fade and can continue to do it because the scar is healing incredibly well. Thankful I found the right doctor. Early growth is great! I’m super excited to start using the new hair for styling it in the next couple months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ear to ear. The scar follows the shape of the fade...it’s about an inch above the fade so it’s higher on the sides then dips in the back a little 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Mike V Posted August 21, 2019 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 21, 2019 Here’s a couple pictures from a few months ago. 1st photo is about a month after surgery when all the new hair fell out...The second photo is the day after I got the staples removed. Easier to see how clean the incision line is when my hair was buzzed short. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Mycroft Posted August 23, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2019 Damn. That is one of the best surgical scars I've ever seen. Even such a short time after your procedure and having your hair so short it doesn't look very "angry" at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Mike V Posted October 14, 2019 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 14, 2019 6.5 month update! I’ve been cutting the top so that it grows in even. The transplants were growing a little slower then my old hair...I think I am going to let the top grow now for the next couple months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted October 15, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted October 15, 2019 Amazing result! It doesn't even look there is a scar whatsoever.
