Regular Member JDB89 Posted April 8, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 8, 2023 Thanks all, really pleased so far. Same as everyone I am dreading the shed but buzzing for the final position. My final graft numbers were: 440 single 940 double 670 multiple Total :2050 grafts 1700 in the hairline with remainder in the crown. I switched to oral min in Jan, which if nothing else is helping my beard growth! I've managed to take the top line of my beard about 1cm higher in that period. Currently undecided between letting the whole lot grow out vs keeping it all buzzed until the recipient starts to regrow and thicken... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally grew it out I did the no show method where only the donor was shaved the top was left as is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JDB89 Posted April 12, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 12, 2023 3 week update, native hair is growing back way quicker than transplanted hair so providing a fair amount of contrast between the areas but sent my pics to the clinic at day 15 and they are happy it is all good and healthy. It will only look worse as the shed draws near but that's what we all signed up for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member JDB89 Posted April 23, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 23, 2023 1 month results, lots of length and thickness back for the native. Plenty of shed in the recipient. Little bit dry and flaky but otherwise all good so far... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JDB89 Posted May 25, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2023 Hi all, pics below at 2 months post op. Dryness/Flakiness is much better, not sure if on its own or due to oil being used couple of times a week but all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member duckling Posted May 26, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) currently you are at little better place than baseline (pre surgery) which is expected due to shedding phase. you will see great grow after next 2 months. by next month more baby hair should come.

I'm not entirely sure, I was €2 per graft but that was booked May last year. I had seen prices had gone to €2.50/graft but not sure if it has gone up further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member JDB89 Posted June 24, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 24, 2023 Hi all, 3 months down now. Lots of little hairs coming through, seem to be able to feel an almost permanent stubble round all the transplanted areas as new hairs keep sprouting. Now just a few more months for them to grow and thicken up (and be joined by plenty more!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member JDB89 Posted July 29, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 29, 2023 4 months down! New hairline is definitely settled in, looking forward to the next couple of months particularly to get some length back all over and thicken up the new stuff! Pics below, included a few wet under spotlight as well. Had a couple of haircuts on the donor but nothing on the top yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DomTransplant Posted September 10, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted September 10, 2023 Just came across this, you're looking great for 5 months, ahead of the average for sure.

Regular Member Scree Posted September 15, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted September 15, 2023 (edited) Beautiful, can already tell this will be a home run. Do not worry if the crown grows in a bit later. Less blood flow at the back of the head so can take up to 18 months to fully mature.
