Regular Member Norwood_infinity Posted January 10, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted January 10, 2023 Follicles: 1s: 222 2s: 522 3s: 803 4s: 184 Just got back to the hotel from Dr. Nader’s Clinic. Drove down from Houston yesterday. Absolutely great experience. Mr. Santos picked me up from Cambria hotel this morning just before 730. Arrived at Dr Naders clinic around 8. Filled out paperwork for two minutes and then Dr Nader met with me for the first hour. He honestly just sat down and talked with me about my life, hair loss journey and anything else. This was honestly the part that puts him over the top in my opinion. He gives you his full attention and he really cares about relationships - with his patients and his staff. Sitting down with him gave me total confidence in him. After that they did extractions, followed by tacos, followed by grafts. I was done by 4 and now I’m back at the hotel. pics attached. I will try to do my best about updating profess and answer any questions. below are consultation pics. Pics buzzed before surgery and post op pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Norwood_infinity Posted January 10, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 10, 2023 My only nitpick would be that it looks a little asymmetrical, and the hairline is just slightly behind some hairs left over from before my hairline receded. Right side is millimeters more conservative than left, and I don’t like leaving those single hairs on an island. But probably won’t even be able to notice once all grow out, and I know it will be infinitely better than no hair at all. Could also go back in for a touch up in the future. Would definitely see dr Nader again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ik with dr mwamba took his time with it and I had a lot of say in it as I already knew what I wanted if you want to change it you can always go for a some touch up healing won’t be nearly as tedious by then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted January 10, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted January 10, 2023 I love the design! Take this with a grain of salt but I’ve seen the asymmetrical design worries before and I would say to try to not get too caught up in it. Take a look at people on the internet whose hair you might admire. You just don’t find symmetrical hairlines in nature. There have been cases posted in the past where people got redesigned hairlines that were symmetrical and it was just…off. To me it’s the tell that says you’ve had a hair transplant. I hope you post to 12 months! You chose a great doc! Dr Nader has, rightfully so, been getting a lot of good attention lately. Happy growing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like you said touch up is easy. I think on my right side he may have missed the guidelines a bit but really I’m talking millimeters. I think he did an excellent job and I was being nit picky.

Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted February 14, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted February 14, 2023 Everything looks great. Donor looks totally untouched. Recipient is obviously still red but that will resolve-at least you still have an idea of what you’re hairline will look like.. Everything looks on point! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Norwood_infinity Posted March 11, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) 2 month update. Red because i was fresh out of the shower. Not normally this red. The pimples are the most annoying part that I didn't expect. Dont plan on cutting my hair anytime soon just going to keep growing.

Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted March 11, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted March 11, 2023 I had really bad pimples, too. They were the most obnoxious part about the hair transplant. It looks like you already have some growth, man!! Honestly, this is looking really solid for 2 months! Hows your donor looking and feeling? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member SoonToBeThomasShelby Posted March 12, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted March 12, 2023 When did your shed start? I got work done with Nader on Feb 14 and haven't really shed yet.
