    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Yes, very happy. Just started living my life and not worrying about it. These aer pics at the worst possible angle, but I'm very happy. Could use a tiny bit more but it's good enough and the scar is way way better (although I still want to get it filled in)

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    2 month update: Donor Area: Scar has healed a lot more, and is very flat, I have a hard time finding it now vs my old one which had keloid issues and hurt even a year after surgery. I barely feel this one. The downside is that even though I have been very careful and followed Dr. Cooley's...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Newest update at 5 weeks out from surgery. My thoughts: I had hoped the electrolysis marks would heal sooner, but Dr. Cooley says I am right on track. I had to go to a pretty formal conference this weekend and it has not been fun trying to hide the redness under my hair. My hair thin in the...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    UPDATE: I just had my transplant to fix this with Dr. Cooley. Let me say that this was a night and day experience! Dr. Cooley is beyond thorough and I can't thank him enough. Here's how the day went. He started by spending over 30 minutes discussing exactly what I wanted while actively...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Updated pictures at 15.5 months out that I have sent to him for refund last Friday. Still waiting to hear back. They did call me last week offering the free transplant again. No mention was made about the refund. I am not sure why they keep wanting to redo the transplant. Perhaps it is less...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Hey Everyone, I appreciate the comments and thought I would follow up. I am currently exploring getting a second procedure to fix this result. The two top surgeons I am looking at right now are Cooley and Shapiro. I had a consult with Cooley who is confident he can fix this. Here are pictures...

    Agreed. I am very frustrated with this. Any suggestions on how to seek a refund or some kind of recompense from the surgeon?

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Updated pictures. I am almost at 10 months here. I have schedule a consult for 2 months from now with Dr. Jerry Cooley. Hopefully he can help me fix this situation. I am still really dissatisfied with this result. I am going to touch base with the clinic in about a months time to see if...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Here are pictures about 6 hours post-op. I'm not going to display the name for now out of respect for the clinics reputation. I've talked to my patient advisor and he says they will do anything in their power to fix free of charge. Whether than be scar revision, more hairs grafted, fue into...

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    They did place grafts in the frontal crown area to thicken it up. I told them repeatedly my main concern was density and having enough hair more than filling in the temples, but they kept saying they would give me more than enough etc.

    28 Yr Frontal Transplant (~2100 Graft) 8 Months

    Hey everyone, I wanted to post my results so far on my hair transplant. I've posted pre-op and now at 8 months along with pictures and measurement of my scar at 8 months. I had a 22 x 1.2 cm strip taken out. That is 26.4 cm^2. Density estimated at about 210 hairs per cm^2 or around 80 FU. Giving me ~2100...
