Moderators Al - Moderator Posted February 24 Moderators Share Posted February 24 I love that you've been showing updated close ups on the scar from the very beginning. You can see it was a very good closure, but you ended up with a lot of shock loss in the scar area. That will all grow back. This is something FUE patients need to see because they often think they've ben depleted when it's just shock loss. It's much easier to see that it's shock loss when it's FUT.

Regular Member Lenzman Posted February 24 Regular Member Share Posted February 24 This is a massive case! Very interesting the staple technique on the scar. How long did they stay in for. Can you sleep on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member acura.tls.44 Posted February 28 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 28 Hello everyone, finally hit 4 months mark. A bit relieved and nervous at the same time... Please have a look at a few pictures. Growth seems to be coming in, one side that had pretty bad shockloss seems like its starting to fill in as well. Hoping next month i can go out with a hat 🤠 Dont mind the bad haircut, I did it myself lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slept on a recliner during that time with a traveler pillow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member acura.tls.44 Posted March 26 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 26 Hello everyone, it feels like forever but 5 months is here for me. Seems like its starting to get better. No more hats for me. These are pics just shy of a few days before 5 months. Definitely getting longer just hoping it gets thicker as it feels disffused. Let me know what you guys think?

Regular Member acura.tls.44 Posted April 19 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 19 (edited) Hello everyone, Just a little update. Just past 5.5 months. Starting to get longer but seems like density is lacking. A little bit of fibre and everything looks perfect. Let me know what you guys think. I took a few zoomed in pics and scar filled perfectly.

Regular Member TimeForAChange Posted April 20 Regular Member Share Posted April 20 I too went with Dr. Wong. I'm praying for growth for the both of us. Do you have plans for another procedure (possibility FUE)? I think your donor can handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
