Far out! Looking brilliant!
Dude, can’t believe the change. I just got mine done in Istanbul last week, I’m 7 days post op now. Hoping to have a hairline like yours in due time!
Looks great! Looks like u still have some ways to go in the crown but WOW. Hairline looks excellent!
Great result!
Looks great jstix09! Especially the front. Yes, your hair at the front will look thicker as it matures. You should post a before/after pic, using one of the online editors or a simple photo editor. I expect it will still get better over the next 3mths+.
Thanks everyone! And thanks Aussie. Yea I’ll do that for the next update. Getting close now I think in just another couple months I’ll be at the final result. My professional portrait is still me with a shaved head, looking forward to updating that! Have a great Nov. all. Go Bills.

8 months now!

Been a while! All’s good over here. I feel like when it gets going it really gets going, and I think my hair is thicker then just a couple weeks ago.
Still thin. Especially in the crown. But definitely much much much better then it was.
I haven’t been taking anything, I just can’t seem to take biotin consistently. I regret stopping rogaine 1 month pre procedure. I think that’s what the thinness is due to. But ultimately I think I’ll need procedure #2 for the full effect.
In the meantime, I’m thrilled with the results of procedure #1.
*I don’t know what’s upwith this app, I can’t post photos from my phone. I’ll upload the pics from my computer

I know what you mean. You go to the All Photos album if you are trying to post from iOS. It’s a stupid quirk

6.5 months

Things are really coming along. Crown still looking thin, I mean, the whole thing is pretty thin. Like there's no way I can pull off a spiked look- but I'm totally ok with it. As the top continues to grow out, it's covering more and more, and pretty soon- I'm going to have to figure out a new hair style!!
Keep growing hairs!!

Looking good buddy. Dont forget youre probably only about halfway there at 6.5 months. Youve got alot more growing to do :)
Thanks! Yes, I keep telling myself that. Checked out your review looks like your a month in. The stage you're in is tough- I know! But hang in there man hairy days ahead.
Haha. Thank you my friend
Great update, jstix09! Looks great in the first pic. The growth will likely have settled down at the front and you may get a lot more people looking upward to your hairline!
Thanks Aussie. Your encouragement is always appreciated.
You're doing a great service with your reviews, so it's the least I can do!

PS you still have thickening of the hairs to come which will improve the look even more...
Looks great! Can I ask when the redness subsided? Looks like it was still a bit noticeable after 1 month?
Thanks man. Yea I'd say maybe until 2/2.5 months it was at least a bit red. A while for sure.
Looks good.

Can I ask how many grafts you did (front ? Back? Total ?

Thanks
Wow, looks like that hairline is filling in nice! Is there anything you are not happy about about this experience?
Thanks- Nope. No regrets
