Regular Member NickJ Posted August 17, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 17, 2022 4 month + 25 days It's still improving when looking back a few days behind.It's not where I would like to be when there is strong lightning but when it's dark even outside I got a "It looks good bro, looking like the hair you had at 20*" Still hopes it gets thicker and keeps improving for another 3 months or so If I had to rate my HT results now I would give it a 6/10 *I'm 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member NARMAK Posted August 17, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 17, 2022 I think this thread is a great example of why patience is key. I'm literally in that 3 month/90 or so day period soon and i have barely seen it progress myself, but this is why it's important to know those are the peak "Ugly Duckling" months. 3 Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Yes, the good times will start for you bro Good for you that you stayed calm, I knew about the ugly ducking phase but still panicked. But that's why I'm keeping this thread alive, to give confidence to people around that 2-3 month mark who start doubting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Vann Posted August 23, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2022 It’s not bad thus far. It’s really hard not to constantly stare but it happens. For where you stand and your hair caliber it’s coming along nicely. just stay strong and remember you are your own biggest critic. 1 Follow my first hair transplant journey 3,252 Grafts a minimum of 6,712 hairs June 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SeanT1 Posted August 24, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2022 Amazing! By month six you'll notice how much shape it's taken compared to previous months. You'll still experience thickness & growth from six months onwards also as your hair finds itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member pkipling Posted August 24, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2022 Yaaay! You're well on the other side of the ugly duckling phase, and it's nice that you're able to get a better glimpse of things to come and how it will eventually unfold.

It's the point you look in the mirror under normal lighting and it all blends together with the native hair density and texture. The 12 month mark is the final point usually but having it before then is a big bonus. Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Yeah when I made this post I was lacking behind the "ideal timeline" maybe even behind the normal timeline for post HT growth.

Senior Member John1991 Posted September 1, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 1, 2022 It'd be great to see a picture from further away (with eyebrows included) to see how it frames your face. If you get another 30% improvement or so you should be sporting pretty solid results IMO. And according to all the numbers I hear, 30% isn't that much to expect at just past the 5 month mark in terms of progress until the final result.
