Senior Member Big Rome Posted August 3, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 3, 2022 21 hours ago, RWG said: Today is officially 4 months. Wanted to share some updated pics. From a distance and in the right lighting, my hair looks actually looks quite good and i definitely feel more confident with my improved hairline but as you can see the left side where majority of my hair loss was is a bit behind but I see new hairs popping up so hopefully the new growth is now officially kicking off. I am traveling so can't use the same room/lighting as previous pics but tried to replicate in a room with natural sunlight. If anyone has suggestions on different photo angles/lighting requests, let me know. Still trying to figure out the best way to share. coming on nicely 👏🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member RWG Posted August 29, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 29, 2022 Officially 20 weeks post op and wanted to share some updated pics. I'm quite happy with how things are progressing. There is a little bit of a weak spot still but hoping it thickens up soon. I tried to show one with more direct light and another without direct sunlight. Direct sunlight Indirect sunlight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member RWG Posted August 29, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 29, 2022 Also, I tried to go back and find some other photos pre-op to show the extent of hair loss and came across these. Not the best photos but I think it gives an idea of how much of an improvement this has been. These are from 5 months pre-op 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Kraki77 Posted August 29, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted August 29, 2022 Still pretty much at the beginning of growth phase and it already looks stunning. Difference can hardly be put into words, this one looks like another home run in the making. And there's so much more to come. Those hairlines that he manages to create never cease to amaze me, absolutely top notch. Can you tell me at which hotel did you stay. Is it Silken? I'm very curious because I have surgery booked for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a bit nervous about the part that is lagging the rest but I know it's still early days. Yes, I believe that is the one I stayed at. They managed it all for me, which was nice.

Regular Member Celli Posted September 2, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 2, 2022 Thanks for sharing Did it take more than one year to get a regular appointment? January 2022 - March 2023 .. Im considering Dr De Freitas but I would like to have a hair transplant done in Jan or latest March next year.

I had my consultation in January of 2022 and was given an original surgery date of March 2023 but they had a cancellation so I was able to get moved up to April 2022. I live in Spain and don't have any concerns with getting time off work, etc so it worked well for me in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious to get your opinion on the small part that's still a bit weak. At what point would it make sense to be concerned that it isn't going to fill in like the rest? I know some people say you have a pretty good idea of final result at 6 months and since I had early growth I have a bit of worry I may be coming to the end of what grafts are going to pop up. Maybe I'm just over analyzing and getting too picky too early but just curious on timeline and if its more of a matter of it thickening through month 12 than new hairs?

Senior Member ITA Posted September 2, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 2, 2022 Also in my opinion, for only 5 months, the result is already extraordinary, it will improve even more, in the meantime, you could change your hairstyle, that is, comb them instead of from right to left, from left to right, to temporarily cover that void. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At six months there is no way one can call a hair transplant finished in terms of growth and filling in. You still have nearly seven months ahead of you. Personally I would wait until 8-9 month before thoughts of concern should come into this. It's like the tortoise and the 'hair.'
