Regular Member theshape1122 Posted December 20, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 20, 2021 Update - Day 5 Post OpQuick update for anyone interested, 5 days post op. Healing up well, everything looking good.. donor area looking better everyday, looking forward to the first wash in a couple days! Unfortunately been battling a shitty cold since day 2 post op which is annoying, makes sleeping even more uncomfortable! hoping fighting that too doesn't slow down recovery from this.

Regular Member theshape1122 Posted December 28, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 28, 2021 Day 13 Post OpQuick update: Day 13 Post op - healing up well and hair is growing back fast. Scabs started coming off day 8 with washing, and were all off by day 11. Last few tough scabs came off where the dried blood areas were all had some hairs in them, but this is normal. It's just shedded shafts stuck to the scabs. Will be entering full shed now over next few weeks so expect alot of the transplanted hairs to fall out, but native hair is plentyful any way so should grow over it all pretty fast till new ones grow in.

Not too sure really, some just didn't take, and he said we didn't use enough multigrafts for denisity, was alot of singles. So hopefully this time round its a much better result! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Marko7t4 Posted April 6, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted April 6, 2022 Looking forward to seeing what it’s like at 6 months. My left side is lacking compared to my right, so it’ll be interesting to see how much improvement the top up gives you. Good thing is that the clinic is always supportive.

Regular Member theshape1122 Posted October 11, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 11, 2022 10 Month Update - Post Op Touch Up Transplant! Hi Everyone, about 10 months post touch up now so he's an update, not much change in last couple months so I'd expect current growth is what it'll be like after the full 12 months.Density behind the hairline has filled in well, especially on the left side. It's a massive improvement from before the Touch Up, but I still feel the hairline is a little patchy at the front?, especially one section on the left side just next to the multi graft in the hairline? I feel like I'm 85 - 90% there with how I wanted the final outcome.... so close!What we thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did he say? Also what was your donor density? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Marko7t4 Posted November 16, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted November 16, 2022 Looking at your pre and now post top up pics, you can certainly see an improvement. You didn’t have a significant amount of hair loss to start with, so I would’ve expected 2000 grafts in the front area to give you a bit more density than you have. Saying that, your hair looks good styled the way it is now, and as long as you’re happy with the result, that’s all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
