Hair Transplant Journey . 5 Months Post Op Excited but Nervous. - Chicago, IL

I had been thing about doing this for a long time .I look on RealSelf for a good Doctor near by. Thats where I found Dr. Omeed Memar, MD. Im very excited to be at post 5 months but a little nervous what do you guys think. picture will be 10 post and 5 months post. I been waiting for the hair to grow but its take forever will keep you guys updated.

I didnt have any real hair loss just wanted to fix my hairline.I showed him a picture of man with his hair in a man bun lol He told me we could a accomplish it . He look at my hair drew a hair line and told we would need about 1200 grafts. I agreed and then set a procedure date .

The day of the procedure was very early in the morning in may. The day before I was told to bring only 2 medicines of the 5 I was given the next day . When I arrived to the location downtown no was there .... I had to wait in front of the office for about 30 mins . When someone finally arrived . When I was let in I was asked to show them all the medicine but I only had the 2 they told me to bring the day before . They had me go to the pharmacy to filled the prescription ....... When I arrived back to office I had taken some of the medicine and was asked to fill out more forms/consents


When I came back they took me to a room shaved my side of head/ donor area . next they injected me with painkillers /numbing into my head still hurt like hell but Im a baby when it comes to pain. I had taken a some pain killers before by the time a I arrived at the office I took some of the pills as I was told to by the Assistants.

After the numbing they took the grafts out with the artas machine .

Then I was taken to an other room to start puting the grafts in. 2 techs came in they both made holes in to my head to put the grafts in. I watched them the whole Time They were very nice and the Dr. Omeed Memar came in like I believe 2 times to check on them.

After that I was sent home my Gf picked me up from downtown and I when home .

I'M starting to get worried the hairs are coming out yes! But they are not coming out has my natural texture of my hair . My hair is straight the hair coming out is curly. I have read online this might mean the graft was damaged with they put it in smh . Also the gaps between the hairs are to large meaning they are tofar apart from each other so the hair doesn't look natural. No hair are growing in between. .... meaning I won't be able to pull my hair back . The future does not look well but I am still hopefull . If you guys have any questions just comment or message me I reply as soon as I can hope this helpfull
