According to the doc, I received a total of 241 1-2 hair follicle units and 1373 3-4 hair follicle units for total count of 1614. Here I am, 107 days later...it's coming...

- Losing your hair at age 20? Yeah, it blows!

Dhuge,
You have been taking photos in dark light. Closeup photos are slightly blurred. If you take them in sunlight(not exactly under sun) they will look much better.

Can you still see the incisions? I think they should not be visible by now.

241 1-2 hair follicle units and 1373 3-4 hair follicle units??? I thought there will be more number of 1-2 hair follecules than 3-4 hair follicles.

My doctor had a reason for not breaking them up, it's his normal practice. What do you mean by inciscions? I don't think I can still see those! What you're talking about might be the as-yet-to-sprout-but-almost-sprouting new hairs.

Huge, it does look like stuff is beginning to happen, but it's still way too early to see any real results. I'd say by day 120 and forward you might begin to see some real action.

BTW, I, too, lost my hair at 20. Sucks big time, my friend. Glad you're taking care of yourself. Good luck!

Very cool to know. I'm looking forward to results now. On my countdown calendar on my computer, I had for some reason listed "Major Hair Growth" and it is still 103 days away from that marking. Hopefully it takes off soon!

Any other thoughts on this, or does everyone agree that it is just too early to tell?

You're not even 4 months yet so definitely too early to tell.
Think of it as a pregnancy. Some girls walk around at 4-5 months and nobody can tell. But at 9 months........

What bugs me is that some stuff is just shooting out while in other places there is nothing! I'm just hoping some of the gaps will fill in. Of course, some hair is shorter than others, but im talking about areas where nothing has sprouted yet...I have to say..the roller coaster is in a dip right now...

I realize that every patient is different (chemistry/biology), and that every doc's results varies, but if you look at my blog, check out the progress in HT #1. The first signs of growth were evident at week 13. Then at week 15 and on they really started taking off. The first "full" look happened at around week 22. That's over 5 months. So I say be patient. Unfortunately, this is a tough part of the process . . . waiting.

It's been 15.4 weeks for me and you looked much thicker at 15 than I do...hopefully these next 7 weeks zoom by.
