Seems like shedding is mostly done, and what is still there has grown a lot. Also noticing new hair sprouting in the recipient zone. Still some redness going on in the recipient zone, but that was expected since my scalp is very sensitive and I've had some trouble with seborrheic dermatitis earlier. Got a prescription for oral minoxidil last week and will take a dose of 2,5mg (eventually 5mg) ED. Hopefully it will boost the growth on other areas that are thin. (crown, mid-scalp and temple points). That’s not bad man. The redness looks worse in photos im guessing? overall for 2 months it looks pretty good. Hopefully by month 4 everything fills in for you. 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...

Yeah, the redness doesnt look that bad, but had to use blitz to get a clearer pic. no blitz: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Mike8000fue Posted September 21, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) 4000 grafts when you only needed 2500, this clinic need to be avoided same strategy as asmed. Hope you will have a good results. Better pay more per graft at a better doctor and he will use small amount an the results will be the same or better with small amount of grafts and finally you will pay same or less and you will be left with more grafts in donor for future.

Regular Member Xanadu Posted September 23, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted September 23, 2022 On 7/2/2022 at 4:30 PM, THE TRUTH said: Waw ! Over 4000 grafts for someone who is relatively young and only a Norwood 2.5 hairline with minimal loss ? Well I mean okay it's not like you're 20 without being on medication. You are 29 and your miniaturization seems to be stabilized thanks to the use of finasteride so you are an okay candidate but still the fact they did 4000 grafts only for a Norwood 2.5 hairline to me seems way exagerated.... Reminds me of this similar case from the same clinic and the result was really subpar... Did you ask specifically to get 4000 grafts ? Or was it the clinic's suggestion ? Did they elaborate a long term strategy and how about your total donor capacity ? Anyways I wish you a happy recovery ! All the best YEs, 4000 for that limited need seems very exaggerated.

You two might be right, but I feel my forelock area was in worse condition than the pre-op photos show. You can see this in the next picture. This is taken close to four months after the operation. You can also see some scarring after I removed a lipoma the month before the hair transplant. The HT docs were a bit concerned that any hair would grow there, but it turned out very nicely! The line that is drawn on my head in the first picture is something my sister did before I left for Turkey. Not done by any doctors lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member DutaSaveMe Posted January 29, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) 7 months update It's been seven months since my transplantation. I am so happy that I went through with it. Before the transplant I walked past the living room mirror with great frustration, everyday thinking that this will only get worse as time passes by. Now all I feel is relief. I was fortunate to not shed all of the transplanted hairs after the procedure, and I reckon all my transplanted hairs had sprouted after five months. The last two months I have not seen any new growth, only maturing. Less curly and increasing diameter. Here are some pictures of the results. Before on the left, and after on the right: BEFORE AFTER BEFORE AFTER How do you think the result looks? P.S. The redness is caused by seborrheic dermatitis, which I've been struggling with for years... Edited January 29, 2023 by DutaSaveMe 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
