3.5 months update:
The transplanted follicles is growing and I am seeing 1/4" inch hair filling up the transplanted area. It's wonderful seeing it grow. yeah!!!!!!! I hope it will grow faster and healthy and finally fill in the area with my regular dense dark hair.

Going on to 8th Week after the Transplant:

Most of my transplanted hair had fallen out as expected and told by the doctor and my own research. Now the transplanted hair follicles are dormant ad would be for the next 3 months (anywhere from 3-4 months) and the transplanted hair will than grow. However I am seeing a little growth right now not sure if it's new hair or transplanted hair (i was told sometimes they don't fall out and will keep growing but only a very small #'s would). I did experienced a bit of shock lost in week 2-4 but it's back to normal now.

My hair line looks exactly the same and the scar in the back has healed and my scalp is no longer numb. I do feel small bumps on the scar on the back of my head and i will ask a friend to take a pic so I can see what it looks like. However i dont think it's a big deal.

I still wear my hair the same as Justin Biber's bangs and no one can tell I had this done. When i pull my bangs back there is no evidence of any work done and looks completely natural but as I said before the hair has not come in yet. so I am still seeing my receding hairline.

The 2 downside about this is the cost. it was very expensive even at a discounted rate of 1600 hair follicles for $6,100. That's consider a minor (small) transplant and the pain and numbness of the scalp between week 1-4.

So far I can not determine if it's worth it or not.

It's been 2 weeks since my transplant and it's going well but part of my scalp is really itchy and another part is a bit numb. My doctor took the stitches out and told me the numbness will subside in a month. The first 5 days after than transplant i didn't experience any hair lost at all it was like my scalp had fallen into a coma but after a week my hair was falling out like crazy but it's finally stopped since yesterday. I hope everything is ok.

The transplant area is really flaky because the scabs are falling off and some transplanted hair had fallen out as explained by my doctor. The follicles will be entering a resting phase for 2-4 months before permanent hair growth.

I have covered up my transplanted area with Justin Biber style bangs and no one so far have noticed.
My next appointment is in 5 months. I will update you than.
