Surgery March 22/07 with Dr. Hasson, living in Vancouver my choice of Doc`s was very easy. Lots of acreage to cover, but the new follical journey begins. Will post more post-op....Cheers and Thanx to all on this forum for all the info...

I don`t have all the numbers yet, but the final tally was 3637

MSM 3X Daily

Good luck!

look forward to tracking your journey with you.

What was the initial graft estimate by Dr. H? How many sessions were you planning for your HT journey?

Congrats LaGrange!

Eman

Lagrange, That is convenient living in the land of mega sessions! Yours will be a great case to follow since I have much acreage to cover as well!
Thanks for posting & I hope everything grows well for you!

Good luck LaGrange, hope your acreage gets covered soon!

Look forward to seeing your results. Good luck...........you're in the best of hands!

Thanx All

Eman-- probably 2 sessions, the estimate is 4000 for the first session

folica-- yes pretty convenient living here alright.. I will update the pics next fri after my session

Cheers

hey LaGrange,

I'm 15 days out from my surgery, and I could not be happier. My wife took the staples out last night and could not believe how clean the incision looked...I had very little bleeding, and very little swelling. I know every patient is different, but I followed Dr. Hasson's pre-surgery checklist like a pilot follows his pre-flight check list. No drinking, do drugs, and plenty of laxity exercises.

You're in good hands....as crazy as it sounds, you might even enjoy the experience!

LaGrange,

Thanks for sharing your pre-op photos with us. I look forward to reading your experience and hearing all about and seeing pictures of your journey. My advice...go for the largest session possible that Dr. Hasson can extract in your first session. If he can get more than 4000, go for it. But I believe 2 sessions is most likely what you'll need to get decent coverage and density. Good luck my friend.

A couple of post -op pics

Damn is that clean or what? Are ya happy?!! I can actually say I know exactly how you feel brother! Hope the swelling don't kick your ass like it is mine. Damn, I never did get that coffee. I'll get it next year when I bring my wife up with me. Happy growing to you!

Yes very happy with it, swelling starting now got the cling on look going....lol..Cheers

LaGrange,

Looks good buddy. Thanks for the update! Remember...swelling is normal...it will last a few days. It's not fun, but it will pass soon enough

After 14 days I finally got the staples out and only had to say #*@#$* a few times, what nice relief to have them out..All in all everything is good and on track. Will post some new pics later..Cheers

Lookin' good, LaGrange. The work was very clean and appears to be healing nicely for you.

Yes...........staples are functional but they are a pain in the A$$. I remember feeling the same way when mine were taken out. You'll finally have a good night's sleep now!

Keep us posted!

Looks good.. Your session will provide a nice foundation for the next! did you do scalp exerises prior to the first HT

I have been trying to add more pics, but I keep getting this message.....Error

LaGrange,

Since this has happened a few times to posters I've now sent a PM to Pat about this. I've had the same error recently on a few of my posts. The only thing I can think of that MIGHT have caused this is:

1. Database security issue
2. The post was moved or last edited by Pat which may have changed the security from it being your original post

Falc

I have been having the same problem...
lagrange, That is some nice looking work!

LaGrange and Folica,

I heard back from Pat...everything should be working again. Feel free to try to edit your posts and let me know if it works.

Thanks guys.

Falc
