Procedure #2 - 12-8-2015; 3,212 Follicles Transplanted
WORTH IT$11,030
I had my 2nd procedure with Dr. Mohebi on 12-8-2015. His team was able to transplant 3,212 follicles in the crown area and in the front to reinforce my hairline. The surgery took about 10 hours, and I have not experienced the same amount of pain after this surgery as I did after the first surgery back in April.
Here are some photos that Dr. Mohebi took just prior to surgery, after surgery, and the next day (12-9-2015) when I came in for a followup appt.

Hair Transplant - 6 Months After Surgery Photos
Here are the photos that Dr. Mohebi took at my 6 month followup appointment on October 19, 2015. Here was really impressed with my hair growth, especially at 6 months. He said I have as much growth as many patients at 1 year.
I'm pleased with the progress, but I'm not getting too attached as my next procedure is in November, and he is going to shave my head again. Back to the starting point. The next procedure will focus on filling in the crown area and a little more in the front and hairline.
Dr. Mohebi also recommended that I shave the small tuft of hair that I have at the front center of my hairline to improve my appearance. You can see from the before and after photos.

My hairline was similar after my first procedure and I also had a similar number of graphs. It is approaching the 1 year mark for me and I think I may wait another year before my 2nd. I'm looking forward to your updates and the results of the 2nd procedure. Do you know if the doctor plans to add follicles to the front/mid section of the scalp or focus on the crown?
Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hey there, thank you for your comments. Dr. Mohebi is shooting for a goal of 2,500-3,000 graphs, and he is going to focus on the crown area, which he did not place any graphs during my first procedure. That being said, he is intending to add some of those 2,500 graphs to the front and hairline to beef it up.
I did have to move my surgery to January 2016, and I'm a little bummed about that, but I'm excited to get it done and start growing the final results.

Thank you for the reply. Looking forward to your progress.
I had 3k graphs about 11 months ago. Its certainly resulted in a big improvement, but its not as thick as I would like. Another 3k should do the trick.

Hair Transplant - Day after Surgery Photos
Here are the photos that Dr. Mohebi took the day after my surgery. My scalp was very red and swollen, but the pain on top was not very bad. You can see that Dr. Mohebi graded the transplanted follicles from the front hairline toward the back. My second procedure will fill in some more of the overall top as well the crown, which is quite thin (Dr. Mohebi shaved the top of my head completely for the procedure, so what you see is just the immediate result of the surgery the day before).

Good choice to do research and find a independent doc. Why didn't you do more grafts if you had the fut procedure it looks like you only did the front and you will need another one for the crown...it looks good and I wish you good results.

We were shooting for 3,500 grafts and it took about 10 hours. Dr. Mohebi told me that I would need a second procedure and that my donor area would support another 3,500 grafts.
I don't mind doing the second surgery. Just saving up now.
Thanks,
Scott
