TheKMan 6 Month Update

The last 2 months have been very very exciting, especially the last 20-25 days when my hair have grown long enough to be combed/dressed (been such a loooong time since I used a comb). Even the crown has progressed to the point where people would say I'm now in the "thinning/balding" stage rather than "bald."

 

Recently met some friends who I hadn't seen in a few months and got comments that I looked "good." I chalked it up to weight loss (I have lost about 25 lbs since my procedure.) Got one comment that I had "grown out" my hair - naturally, I agreed icon_smile.gif

 

I am including some pre-op photos in the album to highlight where I came from...helps to explain why I am so excited about the results so far.

 

Looking for more density in the coming months - that's all that is missing now.

 

Any and all comments are welcome.

You're looking real sharp, dude! Still very early, but your growth at this pt. is solid and bodes real nicely for yer future! I fully expect your result to be toptop.

 

And congrats on the weight loss, above all else -- no easy or small feat, but you've obv taken the bull by the horns!

TheKman, that's a pretty sweet transformation! Particularly impressive are both the crown and mid-scalp regions, which show no traces of your former baldness level.

 

Really nice coverage has over your head and I bet you're looking forward to seeing what the next several months hold! I so wish I was in your shoes right now!

 

Keep on growin' icon_smile.gif

Looking good & your only half way there. Any idea on the graft distribution; how many went into the crown?

 

Congrats.

Delicately helping those fragile souls who suffer from hair loss, w/motherly nourishment & care.

MA, I just read your blog. You've picked a great doctor and 3500 grafts should produce a great result. Last fall, I used to be like you - looking at all other results and hoping I was in their shoes icon_smile.gif If you're going for surgery in May, your exciting times should start in/around September/October. Take the time and enjoy the summer icon_smile.gif

 

Ron, the distribution was approx 1500 in the crown and the rest in the front/top.

5300 grafts is huge. I like that you have improvements in your crown as well. Dr Hanson has a great reputation. Congrats on the weight loss as well. icon_smile.gif
