Hi All,

I’m just 3 months out from my touch up procedure with Dr Cooley. Some redness remains and the transplanted hair is just starting to come through but feeling great.

please see some updated pics with wet hair.

As always thanks to Dr Cooley and this forum for the amazing work you do!

Huge improvement from the starting point. Even as is this looks fantastic, especially considering it's wet. Nobody would look twice at the hairline now, which is the optimal result.

You hit the nail on the head @Mycroft!

That is exactly what I’ve been looking for and everyone who is post transplant realizes is the paramount factor

Hi Guys,

i have had 2 FUE procedures totaling 2500 grafts in an attempt to lower my hairline as was born with very high forehead and had some temple session.

After the first procedure it looked fairly natural but was in need of more density.

The “Doctor” was hardly involved at all in the procedure and they ended up placing many multiple grafts right at the front of the hairline, some with 4 hairs growing out of the same graft!! Not to mention the hairline has no irregular irregularities and the angles are extremely obtuse!! Overall it is a pluggy appearance.

It has cost me a lot of distress as I am constantly self conscious of people staring at my hairline :/

Wanted to ask if anyone had any advice on the best repair surgeons for creating natural hairlines?

Any help appreciated! 

I am dealing with the same situation. Mine, the donor area has been overharvested (hoping that’s the term). You’re right this causes a lot of stress and depression. I’m looking to fix mine as well. The front is horrible, need help

Can you please make your own thread? We can help you but please do not shift the focus from OP's thread documenting his journey. 

 

That being said feel free to create a separate thread and share more photos. We can give our opinions and advice then.

This is one of the best hairline I’ve ever seen on this forum. Top 3 easily. It’s giving me serious hair greed! Lol. 

Appreciate the comment @EvoXOhio

I definitely arrived at this place the hard way and could have saved a lot of heartache by going to the right doctor the first time!

@HairNTearAbsolutely incredible, almost breathtaking work, albeit from one of the best in the world.

I'm curious though, is it juts me or is there a slight discoloration/pinkness in the recipient area? Has that faded more now?

@ML488 thanks for your comment and yes you are 100% correct, I do even now suffer from a faint redness in the recipient area.

This has always been the case for me after surgery. I seem to have particularly sensitive skin when it comes to redness and given the amount of trauma in that area from all the surgeries I imagine it hasn’t helped.

It has been 4.5months since last touch up surgery so I’m going it to go away by the 6 month mark.

4.5month update since last touch up surgery. As you can imagine I’m very happy with the results and the minor issues remaining are the redness which is painfully slow to dissipate. Secondly if you look closely you will see the skin has suffered some slight bumpy texture from all the trauma.

Does anyone have advice/experienced success on how to reduce the appearance of these bumps?

Am I insane; or does this look like native density?  I can’t looking at all the individual hairs… it looks like easy 90+ follicles per cm2… which I know shouldn’t be the case, or maybe it can for a second transplant?

 

any idea what current density is?

I did micro-needling and also Genuis RF needling. It has helped much with the bumpy texture.  Very glad I did it, but it is not cheap.

Thanks @harryforreal

I’ll do the micro needling for a few months and hopefully that’ll improve the situation.

if not I may consider the Genius RF, how much was it btw?
