I am interested because I got a HT from him three months ago. How is your result progressing? Do you have a thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basejump Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 No I don’t. If my HT is a success, then I will be glad to post the results online, but as of now I prefer not to share anything. I had 2200 grafts on the hairline + temples. I am at three months and one week and for the moment I believe I am on track, except there is a side that is growing faster than the other.

Regular Member TheForkLift Posted October 14, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 14, 2020 Hi everyone, time for the 10Month update. I haven't yet managed to have an appointment with Medikemos clinic, but that's on me since I've been quite busy recently. Let me know your opinion. I think that from far it looks alright, and up close one can see the lack in density. Is it good enough? It seems that according to the state-of-the-art it did not fully succeed. On the plus side, it still looks pretty natural, and the improvement wrt before operation is more than palpable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ITA Posted October 15, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted October 15, 2020 I would say, very good, it lacks a bit of density, but no one would say that you have had a transplant, very very natural. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huncholini Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 It looks a lot better than how I thought it would look after seeing your video. It's not a hugely dense result but from what I've seen, Medikemos say wait until 15 months for your final result, so maybe there's still some thickening up to do. Do you know what your recipient density was? How does it look when combing backwards from your hairline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member jimcraig152 Posted October 17, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted October 17, 2020 The primary goal of hair transplantation is naturalness. You've got that. Density, while also desired may take two procedures to achieve. Most surgeons will say most individuals will require two procedures to achieve both. Homeruns aren't the norm. Put it this way, let's say you got density but no naturalness. Now you are going in for a repair in your second surgery. Instead, your second surgery is going to increase density. You just need a 2nd procedure to increase density. Makes you no different that most guys. You've come a long way and look good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member mustang Posted October 17, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted October 17, 2020 You lack density but a second pass of 500-750 grafts would certainly fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basejump Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I agree that naturalness should be a primary goal but so should density. And in this case, sorry Forklift, but if you ask me the density is not sufficient here, considering the price charged by Lupanzula and his reputation. I think that one should expect a much better density even after just one HT. And your latest pics are not even taken outside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member BjornBorg Posted October 22, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted October 22, 2020 I think your own analysis is spot on. Also the thickening of the hairs will improve the overall look. You are not seeing a full result yet. My results - 2486 grafts FUE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill-Dr-Rahal Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Theforklift, Your hair really looks great… As others have already stated, it may lack a little density but that’s something that can always be touched up on in another procedure. That said, your hair looks very natural and if I were you, I’d be very pleased with your results. How are you feeling so far? You should see a little more thickening in the next several months to come as well. best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member TheForkLift Posted January 6, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) Hi all, 13 Months update now. It seems it won't improve a lot from here. One note: pictures taken with artificial light, whereas in the others were taken with natural daylight. Let me know what you think Still wondering if it's worth going for a touch up, I still need to be seen in person by the doctor.

Senior Member Britanium Posted January 6, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 6, 2021 @TheForkLiftreally nice result ! I think it’s improved since I last commented. Yes you could always have a minor touch up, but its not of paramount importance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Konsole93 Posted May 11, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted May 11, 2023 (edited) Hello, I should ask if you still have the nerve damage on the scalp? I'm 13 months post op at lupanzula and still have 2x spots that don't feel good. In addition, the growth rate is similar to yours, so leaking.
