Great!. You need to wait for the desire results. By the way you took normal FUE or Bio FUE?

Looking good, - Who did your's Dr Ljuba Zsolnai Did mine!

I didn't pay cash - couldn't risk it! But looks good. I am going back out next month as it would be one year post-procedure and will discuss second one if donor area looks good.

Hello, its now 16 weeks since the op so i have some photos.
In answer to Supersmooth i had 2x doctors do mine over the 2 days probably so they could get a rest in between which was a good thing as it's pretty time consuming work.The main doctor was Dr Ljuba Zsolnai, but Dr. Koreny Dóra also helped out. They did a great job.
I check my hair a few times a day and there are constantly new little hairs popping out so I am happy that it's getting there.To the touch i cannot feel a bald spot now. There are a few spots that come and go but i'm not worrying about them.In the shower the other day while washing my hair and pushing it back i couldn't even tell i had baldness, it all looked consistent so it's definitely coming along.
I have attached some comparisons with 6 weeks ago, the difference doesn't look massive but it feels and looks better in real life.
I have taken the advice of my hair dresser who i found out also had a HT and have started using a laser comb and have some regaine foam in the post from amazon.
I think my hair is growing slower than a lot of others I've seen with less hairs transplanted and i'm putting this down to me having lots of hairs transplanted so will take a bit longer to grow back.

Crowns are notorious for growing slower than the rest of your head, everything looks right on track for you. My crown began to fill in more around the 6 month mark.
Thanks for the update.

Here here! I didn't notice any visible growth on the crown until after the 5th month - yet it's still thin, even now. The frontal zone seems to have grown out a lot faster (don't know why). I notice growth there from 3rd month. So it's almost a month or so behind the frontal zone. Is it because they place better quality follicles in the front or just the way the body works?!

It's just the way the body works. A few lucky people do get good growth early in the crown but as a general rule it's slower.

Thanks for the assurance guys, you both put my mind at rest last month ;)
I'm happy to share some more pics of the progress.
The hair is coming through well, still small sharp ones poking out so the density will keep improving.
I'm looking forward to my 6-month mark next month.
Good news supersmooth on your April appointment, i have a similar aim next year to sort out my thinning front, and yes, not looking forward to shaving it all off again but it needs to be done properly.

Hello people,
It's nearly Christmas and i feel like i finally have the present for Christmas (and birthdays) that I've been asking for, for over 10 years, my hair back! My hair is looking awesome now, i don't actually think these photo's do it justice.

My friends have all commented that my baldness has disappeared and are pretty amazed by the result.
My daughter (7 years) even touched my head last week and told me that it's no longer white.
My son (5 years) no longer thinks that i look like 'a grandad' ;)

I feel really happy about this even now, when i can still feel lot of new hairs still coming through to increase the density.

I'm so glad i made this decision. It was a leap of faith going abroad, spending a chunk of money (that could have bought us some new windows), and then looking like a casualty for a few days immediately after.

The waiting was a bit painful but thanks goes out to people here on the forums for you kind and encouraging words and sharing you own stories, you made it bearable by filling me with confidence.

I'll keep posting each month until a year has passed and I hope you find my shared experience useful. Good luck if you're planning one yourself.


Thank you!

I forgot to say that I had it cut a few weeks back too.
Fantastic results so far and it will get more dense who did yours? Dr Ljuba did mine.

I will be back in April for second procedure to finish the crown and some thinning area's in the frontal zone.

Hi Heff, I've been silently watching this thread for a few months now and in that time have gone to get a HT at the Hairpalce as well. I got a 6000 hair crown package just like you.

Anyways, I would like to say thank you as I probably would not have gone with this clinic were it not for this thread, and like you, I had a great experience. It's been two months since your last post. Interested to see what it looks like now.

Thanks!

Sorry, realizing it's been just over one month and not two months like my previous post said. Still interested in an update though when you post next.

Thanks again!
