Regular Member Greenlantern2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) As I keep hearing, sometimes even when we get a solid result we always want a little more (when you look at your own hair everyday, you always find something wrong or good). So I am going to post some before and after pics of my 1800 graft FUE procedure from Tijuana Mx (Dr. Cortez). I am generally happy with the result, but on my right side it seems a bit lagging? Maybe it's the natural progression of my loss? I also keep my hair shorter than most guys with a transplant so that might be a factor. And to be fair I have not used finasteride religiously this year, but looking to get back on a steady pace. Here is the order of the photos: First 5 pics are pre op. 2 weeks post op. 2 months. 3 months. 4 months. 5 months. 6 months. 9 months I'm outside. 11 1/2 months 4 photos and donor area with double zero blade. LAST 5 PICTURES ARE RANDOM PICTURE I CAN NOT DELETE I would like to get your opinions on the overall result? I will admit I'm a bit sensitive on the topic, so please only constructive criticism. Thank you so much in advance! Edited December 12, 2020 by Greenlantern2020 sorry the last few pics are random pics upside down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the input, I think at this point I will continue to maintain what I have and prepare to get a touch up if need be in the future.

Regular Member Greenlantern2020 Posted December 13, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) Thanks John! I am generally very happy with the result. I will be honest, there are some spots in my donor area that even I can't tell were harvested lol Edited December 13, 2020 by Greenlantern2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted December 13, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 13, 2020 Your in a very good position now. If you wanted any future work to “tweak” then you have plenty in reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member memzinla Posted March 18, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted March 18, 2021 Your hair does look good! Sometimes I want more, but I should wait just in case I lose more hair once I'm older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member johnto Posted March 19, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 19, 2021 How old are you? I'll give a different perspective. I would leave it for a bit and let things settle down. Over the next few years track your hairloss and see how stable you are. If it is not agressive then I would do maybe 5-600 more grafts in the hairline to thicken it up without lowering it at all and it will be a perfect result!
