I chose to go there based on YouTube reviews and vlogs. I wish these places gave the names of the technicians that are doing the surgery so people know their work specifically and avoid bad results. The techs I had were wonderful. Edited August 6, 2022 by SeanToman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did any people you've met for the first time ever realised you had a transplant? Thank you! No not in the slightest. Even the SMP doctor I went to didn't notice it was a hair transplant (including donor area). I do openly tell people though and they're usually quite surprised. In regards to the SMP treatment, when I went to get it done I didn't tell my partner until the end of the third session (a few months later), she had no idea.

Senior Member John1991 Posted August 6, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) The angling of the hairs is slightly more up than desirable as Ryan Daniel mentioned, but I think it still looks quite natural. It looks unremarkable in a good way - I wouldn't look at it and think twice. Glad you can feel your age again bro. You make the trip to Turkey from the states or are you Europe? That's quite a ways to go. Edited August 6, 2022 by John1991 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although with that said; I like to style my hair up anyway so it doesn't give me any trouble. But fringes could be tricky; the hair would need to be at least 4 inches in length for the weight to overpower the angle. I've been considering getting a second transplant to help my temple peaks/points. Do you think it would be worth the trouble? I went to Turkey from Ireland friend. Though American prices seem to be so expensive that it's still cheaper to travel all the way over than it is to get a transplant in the states.

Senior Member SeanT1 Posted August 7, 2022 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Month eleven update! Once again not a whole lot of change has happened this month. I think I'm at the stage now were the transplant has settled. Since not a whole lot has happened for this months post, I decided to shave my donor area down to a grade 1 so you guys can take a good look at the donor area. According to other users on this form; a grade 2 is the minimum length needed to hide FUE scars, so grade 1 should show you them. Additional note; I've had my third and final SMP treatment two weeks ago, will be making a review of this also in the near future once it's settled. The SMP treatment was only done on the crown/midscalp & hairline. NOT THE DONOR. So you'll see a difference in density in the donor area at grade 1. 11 months post operation: (Original camera) (New Camera / Alternative lighting) (Donor shots) (Prior to shaving donor & haircut shorter on top) Edited August 7, 2022 by SeanToman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member SeanT1 Posted September 12, 2022 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Month twelve update! It's finally one whole year since my hair transplant surgery. The wait is worse than the actual operation, my sympathies for everyone who's impatient as me. Like the previous months, nothing much has happened. I believe I'm at the end of my hair transplant journey with Elithair. FINAL REVIEW COMING SOON! Going to write it in a new thread as this one is only a log. 12 months post operation: (Original position right next to a bright window) (Alternative lighting indoors) (Alternative lighting indoors 2) (Alternative lighting indoors 3) (Light/shadow contrast through window blinds) (Under bad lighting vs not) (Outdoors) (Donor area) Edited September 12, 2022 by SeanToman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member asterix0 Posted September 15, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 15, 2022 If I were you, save your money with the SMP and get a touch up procedure with an elite doctor, it will not be that much money and you will get the density you want.

Hi, they claimed 3400 have been used. I'm not entirely sure how accurate this is. But I suppose not all follicles survive the procedure either.

That's very kind of you to say, I really appreciate it. I agree with you and your previous advice, that it's important to reserve grafts and not use them all at once. The loss of density in light is just a factor of having a HT it seems. I've been following your journey closely, really happy with how things are going for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member SeanT1 Posted December 8, 2022 Author Senior Member Share Posted December 8, 2022 (edited) Month fifteen update! Hello everyone, thought to give a quick update regarding my hair transplant 15 months ago. I'd say these are the final results (combined with SMP). I'm due a haircut so I'll create a second post when that's done. 15 months post operation: (These are taken under various lighting circumstances) Edited December 8, 2022 by SeanToman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
