Pictures before, after procedure and last one after 7.5 months

Result after 5,5 months.
5500 grafts DHI
First haircut after 5 months. No machine in transplanted area. Hair styled wet and with a little bit pure aloe vera gel.

Opinions?

Hope more density will come.

These running pics make the difference noticeable...

Slight worries regarding my hair transplant. Non-shave FUE. 1800 grafts. 110 days procedure.

It certainly seems like my native hair has taken some damage.

It's been almost 40 days since my hair transplant. Around 4,700 grafts were extracted from the back donor area, and this is what my donor area currently looks like.

I'm worried because it looks pretty patchy/thin right now.

Does this look overharvested, or could this mainly be temporary shock loss?

For people who experienced significant donor shock loss after FUE: did your donor area fill back in over the next few months, or did it remain this patchy?

Would really appreciate seeing your timelines/photos if you went through something similar. 🙏

Hi everyone, I’m currently at month 4 (126 days) post hair transplant. I recently developed a small pimple in the middle of my transplanted hairline, and this came out of it.

At first glance, it looks like a multi-hair graft that my skin was having difficulty breaking through. After carefully taking it apart, I found that it consisted of 5 separate hair shafts.

Could this potentially be a failed graft, or is it more likely an emerging transplanted hair that became trapped/ingrown and caused a pimple as it was trying to break through the skin?

I’d really appreciate any insight from anyone who has experienced something similar.

This is 2 months 2700 grafts on fin and min for years. You can see my post history for before and also post op. I think I look like I’m on track and it looks great for 2 months. What yall think? I’m thinking hopefully month 4-5 I can do a scissor cut maybe?

Hi,

29M here. I had an HT 23 days ago. (See picture to see the convered area, 3200 grafts).
I was still losing hair before HT but very slowly (biggest of my loss was like 7 years ago, now it was maybe slowly receeding but I could not even figure it out. But Dr. told me my hair from behind were still miniaturazing so I should start Meds.

I haven’t taken any meds before. I don’t know what to plan now. I will try to have a children in around 7months, so I prefere not starting Fin now. I may start it after (even though I a am not a big fan of it…) but I’m not sure cuz I might try to have another child one year after or smth like that…

I was planning to take at least Min from now. I would prefere oral Min for best convenience but I’m affraid of the hairy side effzct on the face and body because I’m already hairy as fuck… what did you guys experience?

For Fin, I wonder if I should not wait for GT20029 or clasco since I wont take it before 1 year at best…
Did some poeple make this bet?

I know on this sub poeple are very in love into Fin but I’m not a big fan on playing with hormones

Cheers don’t roast me too much plss

25M. Fairly conservative hair transplant recommended by the dr. (~1730 grafts.) I think it was the right move. yes to meds (Fin&Min) started 2 weeks after operation (late af).

Havent noticed any side effects. Honestly seems like alot of placebo out there. Or maybe ill be asexual in a couple months who knows.

You can see I had native miniturized hairs in the recipient zone so the meds probably contributed to the results.

Coming up on 6 months next week and really starting to get concerned about the lack of growth coming on The hairs coming in are incredibly thin and there are sections where I feel like I can maybe see follicles at the skin but nothing is sprouting. I need to keep it buzzed really close with a #2 otherwise it looks pretty terrible and see through in front. I have SMP that is helping somewhat with the shading underneather. Been on Min/fun since the surgery in Feb. Had this done at Esthetic hair Mexico 3500 grafts - 2500 in front and 1k on crown. Before picture had zero hair where the transplant went in was just the scalp micro pigmenten.

Despite using 2% Nizoral, my dermatitis has gotten worse over the past few days. Do you have any tips?

Strangely enough, I don't have any itching or red patches.

Had my transplant on June 24 been on oral dut .5mg and 1.25mg oral minoxidil since last Oct switched from fin

Hey guys, I'm seriously considering getting an HT after a long time of seeing posts about surgeries here.

I'm 30 and I've been on meds (dut + minox) for the last 5 years. I feel that my hair loss has completely stabilised and hair got thicker.

I mainly want to fix my receding hairline, but my biggest concern is the crown and temples. I have really strong, open cowlicks. Because the hair naturally spirals outward in different directions and I had some thinning before the meds, you can see quite a bit of scalp.

On the temples I really have thin hair and it has not improved after long time of meds.

how many grafts do you think I need for both areas? Would I have a good result transplanting into a crown with such prominent whorls? Should I consider doing the temples on the surgery?

Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks!

Went for a consultation today and was told a lower hairline would both me look unnatural and be too close to the muscles in the forehead (they make you do this furrowing your brow thing to assess)
The area they marked out would take 1600-1800 with a high density + some to thicken up the existing area.
Should I push for a lower hairline of their advice is correct?

Thanks 🙏 ☺️

I was recently quoted 5000 grafts by Lenus Clinic. I’m currently on topical min and fin and 23 yrs old. I feel like 5000 is a lot? Planning on getting my HT done in turkey
