Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted April 9 Administrators Share Posted April 9 14 hours ago, Steeeve said: 5 months! Last Monday, the 1st of April was 22 weeks and 5 months post-op. A little late but the pics were from the beginning of the month. Everything is still shaping up but, of course, not quite where I want it to be. It's still too early. The pics of my crown show progress but they're very close up and when I see my crown in a mirror my scalp is still very visible. I'm confident all of this will resolve. Just gotta trust the process. One thing that made me extremely happy was that my scar has closed significantly. It makes sense. I hadn't really considered that I was dealing with shockloss around it because last time the right side of my scar remained so wide from the very beginning. I don’t know how well it will be picked up by the camera especially considering everytime I try to post scar pictures the website flips the images. I don't have any pictures of my scar yet but I will get some and post later. Here are some pictures in regular bathroom lighting. I went to another bathroom to get some pics in slightly harsher lighting. The difference is really only in the hairline and if I'm being honest I don't think its the correct representation of how my hairline comes across to others looking at me straight on. Here is my crown. My crown offers enough coverage so that when my hair is back you cannot see through the scalp. I can go without tying my hair back but if the wind blows the jig is up. If it blows one way it looks fine but if it blows in the opposite direction my crown is exposed. Crown is covered👆🏻 Almost totally exposed👆🏻 👆🏻I walked in from doing yard work and wanted to know what I was working with and honestly…it doesn't seem so bad… I’ll do my best to get some pictures of the scar but that’s all for now. Looks fantastic, you have a lot of thickening and growth left too, solid base @Steeeve 🙏 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

I’m looking forward to some more thickening in my crown. I’d like to cut my hair shorter instead of just hiding my crown with the long hair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valued Contributor Steeeve Posted Friday at 09:25 PM Author Valued Contributor Share Posted Friday at 09:25 PM @Al - Moderator thank you! I really appreciate it. @Melvin- Admin Thank you! I love the curls! I can blow dry to keep my hair wavy and less curly but, honestly, they just add to the overall look so I’m learning to work with them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
