24 Weeks since My FUE Hair Transplant!

I'm posting a couple more pictures today!  You can clearly see that I have much more hair growth in the crown area.  My wife looked closely yesterday while she was trimming my hair and could see new small hairs that have broken the scalp surface but are obviously too small to be seen in the photos.  These will be more evident in photos in a couple months.

22 Weeks!

23 Weeks since My FUE Hair Transplant

Today I'm showing you a couple of perspective photos of my progress.  The new hair growth is quite obvious.  

I'm still dealing with a few pimples (in-grown hairs) now and then.  I would estimate that 90% of the in-grown hairs have occurred in the donor area.  I would have thought the pimples would most often occur in the recipient area because that's where they were implanted and may have trouble breaking through the healed skin.  Most of the pimples are tiny and just a nuisance but some lately have been very deep and sore.  My wife and I call these.....the painful "under-ground" hairs.  The area is quite large and very sore for a while. I'm tempted to squeeze them but I know this is not the best way to handle them because it just causes pain and nothing escapes from the deep pimple. Eventually they seem to be reabsorbed and go away in 5-6 days. So...be patient with this type of pimple and let them go away on their own!

22 - Weeks

22 Weeks since My FUE Hair Transplant

I contacted Dr. Vories at Carolina Hair Surgery and asked him if he had any pictures of me prior to the surgery.  All of the pictures I've posted showing comparison images have come from pictures I've taken weeks or even months after surgery.  Dr. Vories was very accommodating and sent me 10 photos to work with.  Therefore, today I'm posting the best indication of hair growth since I've started the website.  These are truly before and current comparison photos.  I'm still hoping for more hair to fill in where you see some thin areas above my hairline.  I commented to Dr. Vories that all his videos on YouTube show guys with more hair than I have even though they had fewer grafts implanted.  He assured me that all of the videos he has posted are guys with 9 months or more hair growth.  I'm just a little over 5 months since surgery.  I'm keeping my hopes up!!!!

I'm posting some pictures today of my hair line. You can clearly see my new hair line is developing quite well! Remember, I had NO hair line for the past 20 years!
