Regular Member shadow_god Posted August 8, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2023 Some of the pics after my first and second head-wash which was done on Day-7 and Day-8. Luckily, I got most of scab removed easily during the first head wash (day-7) and the remaining like maybe 10% came out on the next day(day-8). Probably this is because, I kept spraying saline water every 10-15 minutes and kept it super moisturized. Even before my head wash like on Day-5, some scabs used to come out with very gentle touch. Here are some pics taken around Day-7 and Day-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted a bit aggressive. That was the only way to change my face structure. I think I am happy with the hairline designed by Dr Bansal. today is my Day-16. I have started shedding. Whether I have good density or not only time will confirm. That's my only concern. Rest all are good. I am quite happy with Eugenix services. They were nice, helpful and professional. Rest, results will say. Keep following my post, I will be updating my journey regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member shadow_god Posted August 13, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 13, 2023 Day-22, I have started experiencing shedding rapidly. I am on Finasteride and multivitamins at present. Everything was going well, but this morning I just woke up and scratched my frontal hair(one hair) with nails. I think I just plucked it maybe. It started bleeding. Did I just lose one graft ? Worried about it. Please see the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So even though you plucked one hair with your nails but hair root is stuck inside.

Regular Member shadow_god Posted October 5, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 5, 2023 Though I had only gotten grafts in hairline., I feel I am losing ground in overall density and more importantly, crown has gone way thinner than before. Crown was un touched during HT. Really concerned about growth of transplanted hair too. It looks more or less empty in HT area. Here also sharing Day-75 Dry hair pics..

Eugenix Hair Sciences Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) @shadow_god Thank you for the update. The shedding period is still ongoing, and it lasts for approximately 90 days from the date of your procedure. After this phase, you will start to experience gradual growth month by month. Please do not worry about the shedding, it will improve in the coming months. Keep us updated on your progress.

Hopefully, I get good growth with good density in couple of months. But my concern is my native hair. I think I am losing or have lose ground there. My mid scalp and crown looks way thinner now(Refer to the wet hair pics). Also thinking of starting topical minoxidil 5% . I am already on 1mg fin/everyday. Should I start Minox?? I know once started I have to continue for whole life. That's what scare me. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted October 6, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted October 6, 2023 You are right in the middle of the ugly duckling phase where your hair is going to look at it's absolute worst. As to your donor hair, you need to give the scalp many months to recover after the trauma from the surgery. In fact your donor now looks surprisingly as good or better than your pre op photos. Everything takes time. All the best. GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member shadow_god Posted February 12 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 12 Hi all, I hope you are all well. I am really sorry that I have not been able to posts in the past 3 months due to some reasons. I have always kept track of my progress weeks after weeks. I will be touching month 7 in 2 weeks maybe. Overall, I am not happy with growth. Frontal looks way too patchy and thin. There appears to be narrow line in the left side. I don't know how much of growth I have left. I am still losing hair despite being on topical minoxidil 5% once a day(sometimes maybe 2x a day). FYI, I started applying minoxidil after 3 months of the procedure on the transplanted area for better growth. I have been on 1 MG Finasteride for like 18 months now. Have not stopped a bit ever. With the patchy and thin hair in the transplanted area, may has become curly and it has made even way worse to comb it properly. I am sharing some pics taken at the Month-6. Also to mention that, I had developed follicutis(not painful at all but some pimples in hairline) starting from month-3 maybe, but they started going away from last week I guess. Here are some pics. I need your honest opinion if I need to go for another HT to fix as I am pretty sure it is a failed HT. I am stressed and really sad for this. I never thought I would be going through this. Fingers crossed. Looking forward to reading your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shadow_god Posted February 12 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 12 Also, I have to add that line and extra gap in left FTA looks really bad. Do I need to go for fixing? If so, please recommend, should I get it done from Eugenix or visit different clinic in India or abroad this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone will have the same level of growth month wise. this is way too early. At around 6.5 month you should never consider for a repair procedure. You need to wait till month 12 to see how everything is shaping up. I would say have some patience, don't worry and give it few more months. In my opinion, you're not looking bad at 6.5 month. Best wishes👍🏼 1 𝐄𝐮𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐱 (𝐃𝐫.𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐡) | 𝟏𝟖𝟎𝟑𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐬 | 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐞𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑 | 𝐁𝐚𝐝 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝗕𝘆 𝗘𝘂𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still have time for growth. They are making false promises and asking me to wait for a few months. But deep down, I know they have ruined it. I regret is badly. I paid a huge sum, but at the end look at what did to my left side fronto temporal angle. Pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shadow_god Posted February 12 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 12 But I will still be waiting till I hit month-8 then I will look for better clinics to fix the mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Z-- Posted February 12 Senior Member Share Posted February 12 Too early to panic, imo. By month 6, it's roughly 50% growth. Honestly, give it 9 months; if it's still super see through by then, it's likely time to look elsewhere. For context, many slower growers and crown growth seem to get significant improvement around months 8 - 9. I think waiting the full 12 months to assess is silly. By month 10, it'll be clear.
