Senior Member Looking for HT Posted June 15, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hey mate. Pictures arent very clear but I think its looking fine. I am almost 6 months and quite patchy. I think you should give it time. Is the area dry, itchy? Others can perhaps advise on the redness. The truth is that 12 months are needed to know the results especially for slow growers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted June 16, 2020 Valued Contributor Share Posted June 16, 2020 Jack dean did they recommend you to start on finasteride after the surgery?

Regular Member Vpac Posted June 18, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted June 18, 2020 All the best Keep us updated but please post photos of your full hair without your hand so we can see what it looks like normally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Taken4Granted Posted June 18, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted June 18, 2020 (edited) I’m not as informed as everyone else, but 1k grafts sounds low even if the yield is good, so the density might be an issue, but there’s obviously growth coming in, so it doesn’t look like a botch. I’m gonna be the same way when I get mine, so I’m gonna try to remind myself to stay optimistic. Whatever happens, you got hair still and you went with FUE, so you’re okay. All that said, the thinning in your pics and the modest graft count tell me you’ll be back. If you’re committed to having hair - and luckily this FUE scarring might be subtle enough for you to experiment with a buzzed look - then do pick the next doc very carefully and pay up. Ofc by now you know that as well as the rest of us.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 13, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 13, 2020 Honestly I think the improvement has been massive, and the hairline is looking great 👍🏼 thanks for coming back and updating us. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member Curious25 Posted July 14, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2020 You've still got a few months of growing time left, but I'd predict you'l likely need a second pass to meet your standards of satisfaction; not necessarily because this transplant failed, but because 1100 grafts with your hair calibre isn't a sufficient amount to have filled the size of area that you required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Silent1234 Posted August 11, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Looks good to me for 7 months, you have 5 months to go though until the final growth. It's worth remembering that everybody always wants more. Always expect to do 2 hair transplants. Often touch up sessions finish the job off nicely if needed.

Senior Member Sijac09 Posted August 11, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 11, 2020 I think this is a pretty good result so far mate, especially for a UK clinic and with that little grafts. The donor area isn’t bad, hopefully it should improve slightly over the next few months 👍🏽 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Britanium Posted August 11, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 11, 2020 Vast improvement. Lots more growth and maturing to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HairFunk Posted August 15, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 15, 2020 Yes hang in there as others have said. The growth only gets better upto 12 months and then as it matures upto 15 months when the frizziness of the hair calms down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 21, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 21, 2020 Looks overall good, but you may need some grafts on the left side for more density. That said, the rest looks solid. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.
