Regular Member deeside81 Posted May 22, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Hi All. Got 3200 grafts over 2 days at Dr. Bruno Ferreira's clinic a few days ago. Here are some photos just after the procedure Edited May 22, 2021 by deeside81 Duplicates 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member deeside81 Posted May 22, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 Yeah I hadn’t taken any photos but screen shoted stills of videos for the ones that were blurry. Here are some I’ve just taken today. 3 days after surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please keep us updated and happy growing Cheers! I honestly think the next few months are going to be worse than the original anticipation of having the surgery. I need to lay off google I think. Terrified of all sorts of complications. Shock loss etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SD1984 Posted May 22, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 Looks like a clean job and nice and dense up front. Are you on finasteride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member deeside81 Posted May 22, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 Yeah for a few months now. Just taken a close up and looks like there is some yellowish scabs forming on one side. Just been sprayed too. Hopefully this is normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SD1984 Posted May 22, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 Nice. Any side effects? Scabs are normal. Make sure you do the wash properly though. They should all be fallen off within a week. Good luck in your recovery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member giegnosiganoe Posted May 22, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 22, 2021 Hairline looks great to me. Reminds me of Konior's hairlines, and with the temple work I can see definite similarities to Lorenzo. Got any before pics? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member BDK081522 Posted May 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 23, 2021 The work looks superb! The crusts are all normal so nothing to worry about there. Follow your clinics guidelines for post-op care but generally speaking you want to start gently washing the recipient area to remove the crusts around day 7. Happy healing and we're here for support during the ugly duckling stage. It definitely is not fun but it passes and it's magic once those grafts start popping! 1 Bosley 11-2016 FUE - 1,407 grafts Dr. Diep 09-2017 FUE - 2,024 grafts Dr. Konior 03-2020 FUE - 2,076 grafts Dr. Konior 09-2021 FUE - 697 scalp to scalp, FUE - 716 beard to beard Total scalp FUE - 6,204 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member deeside81 Posted May 23, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 23, 2021 Cheers! Yeah I’ve already started the whole head wash as instructed. Im terrified my hair will be rejected and won’t grow back. Really shouldn’t be googling as I always catastrophize 😬. Will keep you updated at crucial steps.

Regular Member deeside81 Posted June 7, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 7, 2021 Day 19. Some shedding I think especially on the left side. What do you think of the design? It goes up a bit at one side and the peaks are a bit different. I brought the asymmetry up with Dr Ferreira and he said that having wider side was perfectly normal and it’s to accommodate my own asymmetries and not force symmetry as you’d use more grafts that’s usually not beneficial. He also said that I shouldn’t scrutinise the design (which was more of a line at time) yet as some areas are single hair grafts or thinner hair and that those make a big difference to the design and be patient. Obviously I will have little nagging doubts along the way and I realise this will be a roller coaster. I’ve had a bad experience from 2 other different surgical procedures so that doesn’t help. 99% of the time I’m trusting the process as I had a really good feeling after picking him after reading the great reviews 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
