Regular Member mehereyouthere Posted January 10 Regular Member Share Posted January 10 (edited) Below is a side-by-side comparison of my hair before and after my HT1/HT2 (~3700 grafts combined) with a couple more photos of my pre-transplant hair from different angles (unfortunately lost my phone with a lot of the progress pics between HT1 and HT2). I've already gotten a 3rd HT so feel free to be brutally honest and will probably start a topic tracking my journey, but just trying to gauge what others think of the results of HT1/2. I had diffused thinning for years and hairline was also receding a bit by the time I did HT 1. Not going to name the doctor to avoid biases in people's ratings/evaluations.

Regular Member Eli_Avdikian Posted January 10 Regular Member Share Posted January 10 The after picture is not very clear. However, from what I see, there is some lack of denisty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member jjalay Posted January 11 Regular Member Share Posted January 11 How many grafts were used? If this was with 3000 grafts it looks nice, if this was with 4000-5000 grafts then this is definitely missing density and some grafts didnt take.

Think some grafts didn't take after 1st one so you're pretty spot on. I'm really happy overall with the results so far bc my main concern was making it look natural and like I didn't get a transplant (which is ironic because I openly discuss my HTs with even strangers irl). But excited for the hopeful density this third HT will bring 🤞 Edited January 11 by mehereyouthere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Balding Bad Posted January 11 Senior Member Share Posted January 11 Taking your pre-op hair into consideration, HT 1 and 2 definitely helped boost your frontal third to a very nice place...but, if I were in your shoes, I would not be satisfied with the results. There's a sparseness to it that I don't feel is acceptable. Hopefully your 3rd HT will get you across the finish line! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree the density is lacking but I really like the way the hairline is turning out and that was my main concern going in (plus I use fibers everyday so the lack of density I can deal with, although like I mentioned in the other topic, the goal is to get to a point where fiber isn't needed). I have also found out by scrolling through this forum the last couple days that aside from the HTs that everyone universally agrees are amazing, I have different views than a lot people on here as to what constitutes a natural hairline as well as grading final results. But yeah I agree density is an issue and hoping it'll be fixed when HT3 results are in 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can both attain the density we are truly satisfied with! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
