my HT done by dr jennifer martinick...
3 years back

Looks very nice. Please keep us updated.

hey guys........i am about to finish off with my 3rd month in another 3days on the 14th and stepping into the 4th month....

well i was out on a holiday to europe so could not post my 2nd month pics....so uploading it for your viewing now...

check out my gallery!!!

3rd month pic coming sooooon (in three days)....

till then please comment on this pic!!

hey guys....here r my 3rd month pics...

i dont think so,but on seeing my pics is this the time to worry...

Rugger you should really consider buying some shares in MSM-producing companies (if you haven't done so already). With all that publicity you'll be a lot richer this time next year.

thanks for posting your pics. I remember when I first got home from my surgery and looked in the mirror at the brown grafts covering my light brown scalp. I was estatic. I was bummed when they fell out and then when they came back my glee returned. If only they grew faster...

happy growing!

Hey Sweetlittle

It looks darn good.
I am also considering a HT by Dr Martinick, when she visits India. Would appreciate if you would let me know more abt the doc as well as what your experience has been with her. Do you recommend doing a HT by her? What about Dr. Rajput? How good or bad is he?

Thanks
Adesh

hi...
she costed Rs 100 per graft....i got 2,500 grafts for myself
so the cost came to be Rs 2,50,000 plus Rs 30,000 hospital charges...till now i am facing no problem and i think her work is very good...rest its going be 4months for me on the 14th of this month....
if money is no problem for you then you can wait for another 3 months as then i will be running in my 7th month and then i would be able to tell you a much better picture about her work..

Dr rajput costs half her price that is Rs 50 per graft...and i think he should be equally good as he peformed on me too with Dr jennifer(as they are friends) and one other doc...total 3 doc performed on me and took 6 hrs to plant 2500 garfts...

i dont know how many grafts you need....if its more then 2000 grafts then you atleast need 2doc too perform on you if you want to get it done in one sittin...so you better see which other doc will perform with Dr rajput if you dont go for jennifer....

I cannot say that I am familiar with that pricing scale ("Rs?"), but the work looks very professional and I know that you are going to be quite pleased with the hairline.

guys check out my 4th month pics...
and pls pass your comments on what u think about my progress...

looks like things are taking off for you......the entire grafted area looks like its is producing now. Each month from here is going to get better and better

hi friends...

i am out of my 5th month....definately there is a change in my monthly progress as u all can see and notice that in my photos...

what i wish to know desperately is...am i going fine or in my case the coverage is a little slow in front...or in the 5th month its possible that all my grafts have still not popped out...

what u people who have experience think???

wow, that is a dramatic differance.
Good chance you still have plenty more to go. At 5 months, a guess would be you are only 60% there. So, you should see a lot more to come.

This is purely speculation, based on previous HT's.

Good luck and thanks for the updates!

Sweetlittle,

I put your "before HT" and your 5 month picture side by side and it looks good. I wouldn't worry about being slow-going, for 5 months I would say that you have a good amount of growth up top. You have been throught the rough stuff (the wait), now its time to sit back and enjoy the benefits.

thanks HairBeThere & forum moderator for those encouraging words
and i strongly hope that my waiting is worth that wait..and i benifit from it...my fingers are crossed

finally i am out of my 6th month...as u all can see a good amount of change in me but i am not full 100% satisfied...
that is why i have a question for experts and people gone through this.....

*am i getting worried about the density a bit to early??

*hairs are growing but i dont see the density,is it still possible in the 6th month that some grafts are still not out yet?

* i know that i'll get some more density in months to come when these new hair will grow to my normal size and will cover more area but is it also possible that my grafts are placed far from each other thats why the sensity is less in front???

for that i have posted the last pic where there is a close up of my left side grafts.....pls see and comment on what u guys think about my grafts placement....

waiting for comments???

sweetlittle,
It all takes time.
I read you received 2500 grafts. 1200 front, 1300 mid.
Was this FUE, or strip?

Strip can take anywhere from 3-6 months to start taking notice to results. Then 6-12 months to see the full yield.

FUE, generally takes longer. Add about 2 months onto each of those time frames. Sometimes, possibly upto 1 1/2 years, on an extreme.

You look like you are in fine shape. Just relax, it can be a tough ride!

hi guys....
here is my pic....was not in touch with the site for long but now i am back when i am full 1 year out of my 1st HT which i had last april....i am very pleased with my hairline,but ya expected a little more density out of it...anyways

Sweetlittle,

I opened up your pre-op picture and your 1 year post-op picture and looked them over. Then, to be sure, I called over a young lady that I know has absolutely NO knowledge about hair transplants. I asked her, "Does this look like a vast improvement?" She replied, "Oh my! Yes!"

I then asked her if she could detect if any surgery had taken place. She looked and looked for a while. "No, not at all. It looks great."

Now, before I called her over and showed her these pictures, I already knew the answers to those question. Dr. Martinick did a great job on your hair restoration surgery. The hairline is completely natural and blends well with your naturally-growing hair behind it.

After 12 months, you should be stoked and enjoying life!

looks good man

do you use toppik or courve? i think you should give it a try to make that front look even with the back portion.
