Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to share my recent hair transplant journey with you. About 1 week ago, I had a second FUT procedure done by Dr. John D**** in Los Gatos, California. I chose him because he specializes in treating curly hair, which was important to me as a black man.
 
Background Information
 
Age: 29 years old
Nationality: Afro-Canadian
Medication: Minoxidil and Dutasteride (no side effects)
Past surgeries: FUT 2017 grafts in 2020 
 
 
First Procedure (2020)
 
 
My initial procedure took place in 2020. In retrospect, I found myself greatly satisfied with the outcome of the first surgery. It provided me with good coverage and a well-defined hairline.
 
Here’s a before and after:

Second Procedure
 
I arrived at the medical facility in the early hours of the morning. Subsequently, I engaged in the requisite paperwork and proceeded to have a consultation with Dr. D****.
 
After thorough discussion, it was mutually determined to augment the density within the area that had previously undergone transplantation and to lower my hairline by an approximate measure of three-quarters of an inch.

Surgery
 
I was administered the prescribed medication. Following this, the surgical procedure commenced.
 
My recollection of the surgery itself remains rather limited, as I drifted in and out of consciousness throughout its duration. Remarkably, I experienced minimal discomfort during the procedure, with the only noteworthy sensation being a brief discomfort when the anesthesia was administered.
 
By approximately 2:30 pm, the surgical process was essentially concluded. A series of photographs were taken for documentation purposes, and I was furnished with comprehensive post-operative care instructions.

Day 7

I also wanted to give a shoutout and express my gratitude to @Melvin- Moderator. You have been instrumental in providing valuable information and insight.
 
If any of you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'll keep you guys posted soon!

 

 

 

Edit:

Seems Dr. D**** has been blacklisted? 😵‍💫

Here are the current results of my hair transplant journey, and I'm pleased to report that everything seems to be progressing as expected! I brushed my hair back to provide a more accurate representation of my hair density.

Just wanted to drop a quick update on my hair transplant journey! 

Again, my hair is brushed back to provide a more accurate representation of my hair density. I usually wear my hair brushed forward. I'll most likely post a picture next week when I get a haircut.

So far, I'm highly satisfied with my results. If you're seeking a hair transplant and happen to be an African American male, I strongly recommend considering Dr. D.

 

Month 4
