Female Hair Transplant

I have always hated how high my hairline was and at 32 I set off travelling for a year and decided whilst I was away I would have my procedure done so my recovery and regrowth would be hopefully be complete to a stage I was happy with when I returned home after a significant time away after all it’s hard to hide the regrowth at the front of your face during normal daily activities for a woman!
I noticed there isn’t many threads on here ref female female hair transplants so in order to help any one else make the decision I thought I would share my story and my journey so here goes...
On Nov 4th 2017 I went in for FUT method hair transplant! After drawing my hairline in and giving pre op meds I was high as a kite... once on the table I had local injected all over the strip at the back of my head which was going to be removed... these injections are not for the faint hearted and were by far the worst part about this procedure but once they are over you literally do not feel a thing for the rest of the entire procedure! I then Had the injections repeated in the front of my new desired hairline!
I remained conscious for the whole day which lasted from 10am until approx 5 pm but with the power of the pre op meds I feel in and out of deep sleeps throughout the day which surprised me!!
I am now 4 and a half months post op and the results so far are very promising... however it’s a slow process and isn’t something that happens over night!! For the past 4.5 months It’s been my personal choice to wear a hat or a headband of some sort to cover my regrowth as I am still at this stage uncomfortable with how it looks however I think within the next month to 6 weeks it will be at a stage where it starts to blend in nicely with my original hairline and be unnoticeable and I can’t wait to start going out with my hair up with it all combed back n blended in without a hat or headband!! Again this is my personal preference, you are not required to hide it away of course!
The scar has healed at the back of my head and I have naturally thick hair so it’s all covered, I have experienced some hair loss around the scar due to the follicles being shocked and I do hope that grows back but again it’s completely covered so it doesn’t phase me even when it’s tied up it’s undetectable!
The scar took its sweet time I heal tho, from all accounts it’s patient dependent but for me it took awhile and some looking after!!
As a whole I am happy I had this procedure done and yes at this point I would recommend it for those looking at getting it done, my only strong advice would be I think about the regrowth stage... as a woman our hair is everything to us and because of the position of where my procedure was done it’s on show for everyone to see which is why I decided to do it while I was travelling for a year and wearing A headband or a hat is the norm!!
I have posted pictures from pre op then 3 months onwards as this is when you will actually start seeing results... I’ll try and update this feed every 2 weeks as that’s when I am making my own photo diary :)
Any questions just ask, I’m more than happy to share my experience with other women thinking of getting this done!

I have been asked which colour I chose.. I chose the one on the right which is 1 under the whitest option so I could match them with my lower teeth and prevent them looking fake

It continues to get thicker and I’m more comfortable with how’s its looking each and everyday!!
I even went out for a walk for the first time the other day without covering it with a hat or scarf!! ??
