Coming up to 2 years..

WORTH IT$2,000
Had a few messages asking for updates over the last 6 months so here's a couple photos I took today. 2 indoors with natural sunlight and 2 outdoors under direct sunlight.
1 side is a little thicker than the other in direct sunlight but have managed to keep the whole thing a complete secret apart from a couple people close to me. Nobody's ever questioned me so I guess it was a complete success. 95% satisfied with it and 100% no regrets. The daily struggle of styling my hair to cover a receding hairline and constantly worrying and feel down about it are gone. I still get hair envy over men with really thick hair and perfect hair lines though. They'll never understand how easy they've had it lol.
I've been taking minoxidil and propecia since a few months after my hair transplant. I still think I shed more hair than normal and get a little paranoid my hair is getting thinner and that'l il end up going bald eventually but I guess that's pretty normal for everyone on here.
If anyone has any questions then feel free to email me as I don't come on here very regularly any more.

Take care all.

It's good to get an update 2 years later from a patient. Looks a great result. Well done.
Great work Danny. It's looking fantastic. I went back to Turkey in March for a smaller 2nd FUE with Dr. Altan to thicken up my hair and improve the hairline. Maybe it'll look almost as good as yours in 6 months haha. I'm still on the Propecia too. Definitely makes a huge difference. Thanks for the update.
Just checked it out Cali looks like it's growing in well. Home stretch for you now. Hope you get the results your looking for pal.
Thank you. That haircut was too short 4 weeks ago. It's much better now. It's improving every month. I'm already very glad I did it again.
Looks great... You are now one of those guys we all look at with hairline envy!
wow. this looks great. I have the same exact issue and hairline issue.
great results!
do not waste your energy worrying about your hair too much. it is unhealthy. If i were you, i would consider stopping finasterid.

Sorry for the lack of updates guys. Seeing as it's been a year now I thought it would only be fair to update you all on here seeing as if it wasn't for this site I wouldn't of gone ahead with it in first place.

Happy with my 1 year results and do not have a single regret about going through with it. 1 side is slightly thinner under direct light like in the photos I've added but in normal lighting it's not noticeable.

My only complaint would be the lack of replies I've had from Dr Acar since the transplant but I can live with that seeing as the Ht was a success in my eyes. Donar area is slightly visible if I go below a grade 3 on the clippers. Can't really notice anything in my photo as it's slightly longer than a 3.

Since the transplant I've been taking proscar and biotin pills daily and feel like my hair is thickening majorly. Still not experienced any sides from either.

Will do a final update in a few months time. All the best guys and good luck to anyone going ahead with Ht's

Thanks for the pics and update, Danny1324.

What a difference between 4-5 months and 12 months pics.

You have a completely different and lower hairline now, according to your pics.
Thanks mate.
Plus your profile pic is mad!!
Looks great thanks for updating
No worries, thanks
This was a really interesting find for me as I am in almost exactly the same position as you, i'm now 22 and my hair is in quite a pronounced peak, however at 50 my dad has not lost much more than me. I am quite confident that a similar procedure would sort me out. I hope you keep this updated as your experience is something I hope to follow when I can.
Yep, my dads 56 and his hair line is about the same as mine was before the procedure although he is thinner than myself. Fingers crossed I have as much as him in 30 years
Your dad might be interested in joining this forum and reading reviews, then going for his own HT, based on your excellent t results, danny1324
Looks awesome mate! Have you noticed any difference in texture in your new transplanted hair and the original? From most cases ive seen it appears the hair is much more course and even frizzled. Was this the case with you? Can you still style the front of your hair normally as you would before?
Yes mate, it's definitely more course than the origInal hair. It was also darker than my hair around it at first. Styles as easy as the rest of the hair though and it's certainly not noticeable to anyone looking at it. I've heard from other patients that it gets less and less course but it's not a problem to me if it stays like this.
Amazing results bro. Im real happy it turned out so well for you. So you would recommend biotin pills to help with the health of the hair?

You're improving well buddy. I'm in my 9th month and this has been my best month of improvement. You've got a lot more improvement to go. It's a slow process but 3-4 months from now you'll be thrilled.
Everything you've told me has happened so far man so roll on these next few months. Enjoying it now that's for sure. Thanks for the updates, looking forward to seeing your next lot of photos.
I'll post pics in a couple weeks when I hit 10 months. Happy growing.
great results
Your looking good for the time happy for you
Thanks man, how are you getting on with yours?
Thank you for posting this, very thorough.......hope you get the results you wanted in a few more months.
Wow looking good.Im 3 month but only have some transplanted hair that didnt fall out.Did it suddenly start sprouting around 4 months?
Even at 4 months I hadn't noticed a great deal. I had mainly little thin hairs that looked terrible upto 5 months. They just seem to of thickened up, I never noticed heaps of new hairs coming through at once. Could always spot a few tips but not loads. Still have a few gaps that I'm hoping full in.
I was under the impression at 4 months id see a drastic change but I'd say its more 5 months plus. Many people on here haven't had much growth up till month 7.
Good luck with yours mate, just be patient
