All the slits opened at the first day and implantation went 2 days? This is new to me. I thought they do slits for hairline and the middle at first day and do implantation. Than they do slits and implantation for the crown for second day. Because I thought slits start to shrink if you do not implant anything in them within 5 hours let’s say On second thought, I think I misspoke here. I thought I remembered exactly how everything went but it appears I didn't remember everything correctly. These pictures of the board in the room indicate she only made 3,130 slits on Day 1. Then up to 5141 on Day 2, and the rest on Day 3. Day 1: 3130 slits made Day 2: Up to 5141 slits Edited October 29, 2022 by general-etwan Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

Shedding in full force. Some hairs starting to burst through on the surface, I can feel them. Also, do not mind the blonde hair on the side...I bleached my non-transplanted hair for a Halloween costume. I do not advise anyone to do such things unless you really know what you're doing. But I would never touch the newly transplanted area. 😄 Hopefully come winter I will have some great progress to share. I'm just one week behind you. I can already see some thick sprouts too! So are you using minox yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planning for kids, and Dr Bansal said its best to hold off on taking fin while trying to conceive.. lol So told the wife, we either have 2 kids or 2.5 years before i start fin. Whichever cmes first. I'll use Rogaine in the meantime though.. Edited October 31, 2022 by BaldingEagle1 1 Follow my Hair Transplant experience with Eugenix!

I wish you happy growing. However, I dont think you were good candidate for hair transplant as You are about to be norwood 7. The area that was covered was big and the density will be average in midscalp and crown, without considering the further hairloss progress... The thinning is progressing towards down to the donor as you can see in the picture below. Anyway, good luck with your procedure and keep on getting finasteride! I think it will be good, and a second session can be done with more body hair if needed. Edited October 31, 2022 by Xanadu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Xanadu Posted November 8, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted November 8, 2022 Bandit and Etwan had very similar balding, but quite differences HT procedures. Etwan choses to do the entire scalp and then add density as needed later. Meanwhile Bandit, with about the same number of grafts, chose to not touch crown until the second round. Which of these two approaches will have the best outcome? I have no idea.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what I should do as a NW6.. maybe go Bandit's route? Kind of like dealing with current balding crown, and then filling it later Edited November 8, 2022 by BaldingEagle1 Follow my Hair Transplant experience with Eugenix!

Meant to say in my original post, too: I understood going into this that I would never have the density of pre-hair loss, or even the density that I briefly had wearing systems. I fully understood the hairline would have to be conservative, as well as the difficulty of the thinning ring area that could not be addressed in this procedure. Still, this was absolutely the best way forward for me, and if I can regain some framing of the face with some coverage on top, that will be a success to me. I know this felt great rubbing this off. im late to reply but I’m just now reading this. You have written a really detailed, well report, about what you experienced from your procedure. I’m addition, to your mental hurdles you experienced as many of us have. Anyways, stay strong, you’ve done the hard part, now it’s just a waiting game. thanks for sharing. 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...
