Procedure 1

26 1 2 weeks Looking good with the new hair. Sorry about the light. I should have thought about that as I was taking these. However, you can start to get  a feel as to the progress that has been taking place It's nice to almost have a full head of hair. It still is a little thin in some areas, but not something that I am going to complain about. I am sure that with more procedures I could really get some fantastic density, but why ? I am still only at 26 weeks and the results are favorable. The back could use some thickening up but how many guys have the rock solid hairline.....few. So, I am happy where I am at - A guy with a decent hairline that is natural for his age bracket ( I just don't want to look 10 years older than I already am)

Procedure 1

27 weeks I am really happy with the results so far. That Dr. Wong really knew what he was doing with my gigantic head when he got a hold of it. Anyway, I am using this new gel so the back looks  a little thinner. I'll be throwing that stuff away as soon as I get home. The rest of the hair is looking pretty damn good though, wouldn't you agree ? It has been a fun ride so far. My favorite comment is, "what happened to you ? Did you lose weight?" Women say this all the time; guys usually say, "what's up with you ? working out ?" It is amazing how the most obvious things don't jump out at people. Only a couple of people have said anything about the hairline and it usually is " you should have let your hair grow out before - you look better this way ". Believe me, I would have done it if genetics would have let me... Who needs genes whey you got Dr. Wong ?

Procedure 1

Day 130 Day120 - My new hairs are growing in and I like what I see. Although the hairs are not as thick as they will be in say one years time, the outline is there and I finally have a hairline pattern back. I stopped cutting my hair so short on the sides so no one even notices the scar anymore. Even my wife said that she could not see it and that was even outside in full sun, sweating away playing sand volleyball !  The time passes and to all the guys who are contemplating taking the plunge I say do it ! Just talk to your doctor about what kind of follow up surgeries you may need and if you will have enough donor grafts for your next transplant. I know that in the future I may need another one, but then again maybe not. With the Proscar and the Rogaine everything seems to be speeding along. Also, who knows what the next 10 years will bring ? It has only been 4 months and I am pleased with the results so much that looking back over what I wrote it seems like so long ago that I looked like that. I have to say that I've always felt good about the way I look, but with the transplant it makes you feel more "normal", like you can stop thinking about how your hair will look at this angle or that pose. Oddly enough I feel more natural with a surgically created hairline - go figure.
