Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted June 12, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted June 12, 2023 6 weeks Postop update: Seems like the shedding has now stopped and hair is regrowing slowly again. Would really love those corners to start coming in strong but it's still early. Considering some people don't see growth until 3-4 months in i'm pretty happy with how things are progressing so far. Hats and hair fibers are still my best friends. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Introduced a derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Still need to get a prescription for oral minoxidil.

Going to ask Dr. Bicer's staff and see what they say Did you manage to ask Dr Bicer about this bro? I have pretty much the exact same situation and would be good to hear what your Dr said about whether she implanted the new grafts at the same or different angle to the pre-existing poorly-angled ones Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the hopes that these 7 when fully grown will be able to disguise the misalignment of grafts from the previous surgery. Does that make sense? Otherwise I would have needed 2 days of surgery for the grafts to be removed and I would have had scarring from the removal. 1 FUT/FUE Dr. Bicer Repair job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted June 26, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted June 26, 2023 8 Week Postop update: Really happy with my progress. Still some slight redness but it doesn't bother me. I'm no longer wearing a hat out or using hair fibers and just rocking it all natural at this point. Started Oral Min 1.25MG last week. From what I can tell shedding is over..fingers crossed anyways! 2 FUT/FUE Dr. Bicer Repair job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted July 4, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 4, 2023 9 Week Postop update: one of the holes on the right side of the 1st picture (my left) seems to be growing in faster, you can see it clearly in IMG_6336. Still some slight redness as well. The transplanted hair is growing more slowly than the rest of the hair on my head so I'm getting my hair trimmed every 2 weeks or so to even things up (not necessary just personal preference) and fade the sides.

Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted July 17, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2023 11 Week Postop Update: Right side (6859) continuing to come in strong. Can't wait for the other side to come in. At this point I feel like my hair at the corners is now a similar thickness to before I had this transplant. Some of the new hair has started to come in because it's growing noticeably slower than my regular hair, which is why I am getting more frequent haircuts to even out the top. If you look at the Before pics at the start of this thread you can see for yourself: https://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/topic/68764-2450-graft-fue-transplant-repair-dr-bicer-istanbul-turkey/ I'm out of the ugly duckling phase at this point.

Hair seems to be a bit thicker in IMG_7274 but that could also be lighting/haircut. It's been 7 weeks of using Oral Minoxidil daily, which should start kicking in at about the 12 week mark from what I'm reading. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week.
