Hi guys,
every time I try to update my weblog http://www.hairtransplantnetwo...e-page.asp?WebID=983 I get an error report. I'll try it again and again in the next couple of days. Anyway, I want to give you some information on my progress now.

It's really amazing for me to the see the results and compare them to my pre op images. A few days ago I went to the barber for a new shorter haircut (4-5cm instead of 8-11cm of length). I told him about my hair transplant and he said: "I didn't notice it. Even when your hair was wet. Nobody would notice it." Probably the greatest compliment, he could pay me!!!

You know, my worst case scenario is NW3V - so it was possible for me to let Rahal and Hattingenhair work very aggressive on my hairline. Rahal did a great job on me. Even if I comb my hair very slowly I can hardly see a difference between natural density and transplanted density. I can go swimming without being debunked at this point (6 months post OP). I'm definitely on cloud nine.

Please remember: My main concern while talking to Dr. Rahal prior to the surgery was to get two fu…7cm-scars out of my donor area and get one new thin scar. To get to the heart of it: He has changed my life! Now I'm poor but sexy. ;-) Dr. Rahal, if you read this: Thanx a lot!

But seriously folks: The last years with two hair transplants have been a tough time because of all this hide and seek. With a cap on my head and all these thoughts about rain, wind, etc. - it's over now! And my wife is pregnant. Life is beautiful!!!!!!

At the end of this year I will quit all my forum activities. It's time for a new chapter.

Cheers from Germany!

DeDom,

Your hair is DeBom! Seriously - that is fantastic looking hair that would make 100% of everyone on this site jealous!

But, in all fairness, you had tons of hair prior to surgery as well, so I suppose I should just say that your hairline looks very natural and thick, especially for only being 6-months! I had about 65% of the grafts of you (1662 vs. 2557), and based on these photos I know what I'm aiming for now - another 1,000 to bring my hairline density up to something like yours.

Very nice photos showing different styles, by the way.

M&M

Congrats Dedom... looking REAL good

I have a few questions regarding your experience with Kelocote Spraygel, since I noticed you used it on your scar...

1- For how long have you used it?

2- What are your feelings concerning its use? To what degree do you think it helped?

3- From your experience, would you recommend the spray, or the gel version?

4- Is Kelocote recommended for scars that are surrounded by hair such as on the scalp, and with a tricophytic closure?

5- Did you have any problems using it, such as hair stuck in the product (it's made of silicone), or even hair loss due to its use?

Thanks Dedom

Hi,
I used KeloCote Spraygel for about 3 months (four cans at 90 Euros a throw). Easy to handle, no side effects, you cannot notice it.

You know, there’s no evidence that it worked on my scar, but I got a good one. I have a great feeling about KeloCote – that’s an important aspect while being in the doldrums.

Good luck
