1st HT.
3,300 FU with Dr. Feller.
I will post my pre-op, immediately post-op and scar pictures as soon as I manage to get a hold of them.

In the meantime, I would love any comments. How's it looking compared to others? I haven't experienced as much shedding as most people here have after a month, is that a good thing or bad?

Update:
Attaching my 2-month pics. I may be going nuts, but I swear I see hair growing where there was none before. The pre-op pics show that area being smooth, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

Update:
4 month pictures up. It's growing! Aha!

Hey Youngguy,

Thanks for sharing your photos with us. Unfortunately, there isn't a whole lot to comment on since we don't see any before pics and we don't see any immediately post op pictures. BUT...at this point, you should have shed most of your transplanted grafts and are on your way to the doldrums...where you'll have to wait and wait...until eventually the new little guys will grow in. 3300 grafts is a decent number (especially if you had them transplanted just in the frontal area) and you should notice some significant difference when all is said and done. I hope you'll post additional pics.

Thanks for the comment falc. I actually received my pre-op pictures today so will hopefully get to post them tomorrow!

YG-

Thanks for posting the pics. As Falc mentioned, it will help to have some befores and immediately afters for comparison.

As for shedding, it'll probably happen but they'll come back. I have heard of those who kept many of the HT hairs then they started growing, but it's far from the norm.

Looking forward to seeing your results!!!!

Anyone with low 3000 graft sessions are near and dear to my heart!!!!!!!

(for obvious reasons!!!!)

Happy Healing and Growth

Updated with before and right after pictures.

Updated for month 2. The wait SUCKS. For the record.

Yeah YG, welcome to the waiting period known as the doldrums.........it sucks indeed! But, just think, in a couple of months you should see the crop starting to come in, what a pleasant thought! Hang in there.

Update for month 3!

Looks like it's starting to come in...........hang in there. I'll be anxious to see what the next couple of months bring for you.

Peace,

Youngguy,

Good to see you posted your pre-op and immediately post-op photos. Dr. Feller does solid work. At month 3 you are only at the beginning. Hold on tight...the journey has just begun...but don't lose faith. Don't expect new growth every time you look in the mirror. It really does come in gradually.

Falc

Thanks for the comments & the encouragement guys. I'm not at the losing faith point; if anything, I'm excited! I mean, heck, there's hair growing outta my noggin!!!

Seriously though, I was worked on by a top rank surgeon. I'm at the 3 month mark and there's visible growth. What can possibly be there to be unhappy about? My expectations right now are to have a decent amount of hair 3 months from now, thin but present. I'm hoping for 50% growth by then. I'm excited to be on track for that!

On par, 3 months is only the very start!! Grow well!!!

YoungGuy,

Definitely a great improvement in comparison to your 'before' photos! It's really going to thicken up during the next nine months! From what I have seen on this forum, I have been very impressed with Feller's work. I'm planning on a third procedure later this year and, as of right now, Feller's my first choice.

Thanks! It's probably too early for me to say but thus far, I'd definitely recommend Dr. Feller

Updated for 4 months, I'm getting excited!

Looks great. You are gonna love it even more in another 2-3 months. You're gonna really look like a younger Youngguy. Feller did a great job again.

Sweet

BIG difference at 4 months and you arent even 1/2 way yet!!!

You have a hairline now!!!

Congrats!!

Looks like you're really turning the corner, YoungGuy! Looks good........congrats, my man!

Youngguy,

Already an improvement from 3 months...looking good. Much more to come brother. Keep us posted.
