I’ve seen a lot of improvement over the last 30 days. Hair is getting thicker and still sprouting. My right side is definitely coming in faster than the middle & left so they have a bit of catching up to do but I know it’s very early so not worried about it coming in uneven or anything. Providing pictures of my hair both dry & wet. Hoping the next 30 days brings more growth and density. Will report back then! Hell yeah! Awesome results. Saw them on Reddit already. Just another example of why I think Pekiner is the best in Turkey at the moment. Reminds me a lot of my transplant. Can't wait to see the 6-7 month mark once the hair starts getting some better texture! The density is already looking solid. Amazing for 4 months! Enjoy the growth, and make sure to update us during the next few months! 1 Check out my journey here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member hotrod999 Posted March 21, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) 5 Month Update Today marks 5 months since my surgery with Dr. Pekiner. Over the last 30 days I’ve definitely seen more improvement in thickness and still some new hairs sprouting. My right side is very strong, the middle has caught up over the last month and the left has seen improvement but when dry there is one spot that is still a tad thin but considering where I started I couldn’t be happier. Still 7 months left for it to thicken and mature so I’m not worried - could also be the hair is still very kinky and wiry so it drys funny because the left side looks pretty solid when my hair is wet or styled. I just let it dry naturally for these photos. Also noticed a multigraft or two in the hairline, but it happens so not a huge deal. Overall I’m very happy to have a hairline for the first time in my life and looking forward to see any changes over the next 30 days. Definitely one of the best investments I’ve ever made! Side note: I know I would look much better getting a haircut and cleaning it up but I haven’t cut it since the procedure as I’m looking to get some good length back! My hair was pretty long pre op & I miss it haha Here are some photos of my hair both wet & dry: Edited March 21, 2023 by hotrod999 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was as good as it gets I would be satisfied. Anything else is icing on the cake😎 Feels great to not have to worry about covering my massive forehead 24/7, like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Seeing the pre op pictures it’s crazy to me I put up with that for so long 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Belve Posted April 19, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) Amazing result so far. Dr Pekiner is in the best 3 options for hairline restoration in Europe. His donor management is also really good. Edited April 19, 2023 by Belve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member hotrod999 Posted April 23, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 23, 2023 6 Month Update Officially at the half way mark! Over the last 30 days I’ve noticed the texture of the transplanted hair changing & starting to feel a lot more like the native hair around it. I took these pictures out of the shower, very happy with the results so far. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
