Regular Member Kent Posted August 13, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 13, 2022 One month after 3875 graft FUT with Dr Hasson in frontal band and corners (fine hair). Three images - one right after, another about 2 weeks after, and the other today at one month. Nearly all the hair has shed - small amount remaining. Hopefully this means it will grow in faster! Recipient area is still fairly red. I’ll update again in a month! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Twintwin Posted October 3, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted October 3, 2022 Hey Kent, everything looks great! I had a FUT with Hasson 2 weeks ago, so I’m going through the exact same experience. Do you mind sharing an update (incl. photo of the back/scar). That would be super helpful!

Regular Member Kent Posted October 4, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 4, 2022 Hello fellow Hasson FUTer. I’m attaching a few recent photos which are at the 2.5 month mark. My scar is still a little red (see photo) but feels fine. It’s completely covered by my hair. I’ll do another update at 3.5 months. Best wishes to you my friend! Happy healing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted October 4, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted October 4, 2022 That scar looks excellent and in time, once the redness disappears, you won’t really know it’s there.

Regular Member Kent Posted October 4, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 4, 2022 Thanks Gatsby! I’ve heard that it takes 90 days for growing to begin. In your experience when would growing begin? I’m starting to get anxious. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Twintwin Posted October 4, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted October 4, 2022 Thanks for sharing! From what I can see on your photos (pre op vs 2.5 months post op), it seems like growth has already started, although it is sparse and thin hair for now. I think you have nothing to worry about! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Kent Posted November 8, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 8, 2022 Day 116 (a week away from 4 months) post FUT 3875 grafts with Hasson in Vancouver. My hairline is beginning to become defined. Small fine hairs are getting thicker and longer. My linear scar is still a bit red but feels better ever day. It’s entirely covered by my hair, which has grown back after a complete shave for the procedure in July. The lighting makes the hairline look thicker I think but I’m still happy to see things begin to happen. I’ll post again at the 5 month mark. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Kent Posted December 12, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 12, 2022 It’s almost 5 months. I attached some pics (2 with wet comb through and the rest are dry). The hairline is impressive but the hair behind the hairline is still patchy. I’m looking forward to the new hair become integrated with my native hair. I really want to be able to go to a barber for a nice cut and style that shows off the hairline. A recap - FUT from Hasson 3875 grafts in July 2022. The procedure was routine 7:30am to 5:30pm. There was no pain. I had my head shaved completely. I noticed early growth around 2.5 months. The hairline became defined around the 4th month. If you have any questions let me know. cheers !!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Kent Posted December 12, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 12, 2022 Thanks. I’m pretty happy so far. I didn’t ask about the graft breakdown. So long as it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Nordster34 Posted December 21, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 21, 2022 The hairline is looking really good and natural! I like that he rounded the corners a little bit to give it a softer and more refined look. Mine ended up having sharper more angular corners and I really wish mine was a bit more like yours in terms of shape. The growth looks fantastic!

I like the design Hasson suggested. I was wondering if he would recommend temple work after following your posts but he didn’t. A lot of folks have strong opinions on your result so take everything you read with a grain of salt - both the good and the bad. I really like your result and I think the design Hasson used for your transplant was based on the shape of your head. Hasson was really good to me and discounted the price when his office switched my scheduled FUE to FUT. I have no doubt they’ll support you 100% when it comes to touch ups and adjustments. Cosmetic surgery will never turn out exactly as we think but hopefully we can be happy with the good features. We have a good doctor who I think will make sure you’re happy in the end. Cheers friend!

Regular Member Tiger2050 Posted December 23, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted December 23, 2022 Looks awesome and still a lot of time for improvement, congrats. Dr. Hasson has been catching some heat lately on this forum because of @Nordster34 temple points not looking great but all of the elite surgeons have some subpar results. Hasson is still a top 5 surgeon in the world and the best doctor at mega sessions for higher norwoods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasson is still a top 5 surgeon in the world and the best doctor at mega sessions for higher norwoods. I was sorry to hear he wasn’t satisfied with his hair design. Fortunately my design was simple and my overall experience with the clinic was favourable. I think Hasson’s superpower is building density and he uses a lot of grafts to achieve it. I have no doubt the clinic would rectify subpar results free of charge. They actually gave me a significant discount for an unexpected rescheduling of my surgery. I have a close friend who also got a transplant from Hasson. He developed a skin condition several years after his transplant and lost a lot of his transplanted hair (completely unrelated to surgery). Hasson is currently working with him free of charge to help him get his hair back even though it’s not his responsibility. Yes H&W charge a lot but you get what you pay for. They guarantee patient satisfaction. There are some things that can’t be guaranteed but I’m convinced they will do everything they can to get patients as close to their desired result as possible.

He used a lot of grafts so my expectations are high with respect to density. So far so good. I’m very satisfied with my new hairline but it’s still patchy further back. Also, the new hairs are really soft and fine. A hair transplant is such a crazy waiting game. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
