Hair has been growing out from 3mm for over 3 weeks now. It's still short but it has filled in alot for only a few weeks growth. There are still loads of new hairs breaking through the skin and they are so strong I can hear them when I rub my fingers on my scalp. Sounds kinda like sandpaper. I am using minoxidil because I have it lying around. I also take perfectil hair which I find to be fantastic.

UPDATED FROM coisceimcullen
Almost six months
Took these pictures under very harsh light. Hair looks much better under normal circumstances.
Still feel lots of new hairs coming through, especially at the front. I am keeping my hair at around 3mm until it thickens some more. Started using 5% minoxidil to quicken things up a little - I won't stay on it permanently.

Patience please "steps to handsomeness". (I hope Google translate hasn't shafted me on this one!) You need a whole year and then some to judge results. Minox 5% is a good idea. Worked for me I'm sure. Drop it at 18 months post-op - it wont do anything beyond that.

Thanks for these update pics, coisceimcullen.
You were at Maral Klinik a couple of days before me and nickzed09.
I haven't trimmed the next hair at all and it's a mess!
Has anyone straight out asked if you've had a HT?
I had arrived into Dublin the day after mine, then was at a mass the next day. Old bald guy behind me word have had a laugh.
Next week he sees me and says 'you've just been in Turkey!!!' :)

Nope, nobody atall, even my brother never asked. Only people who know are my mother and my wife....lol.
I used the banana boat gel that Hairflick recommended. I reckon that made all the difference.
Only thing I'd say about the bald guy is that he doesn't have the balls that u have.

Looks good. Quick question, are you planning on keeping your head shaved? It may sound strange but I like the idea of a shaved head of full hair. Also I hear different answers on shaving after a HT. How kind after did you start shaving it? Good luck

Hi.
I'm growing it out now at the moment but if I don't like it I will shave it in again. I started shaving it down to a grade 1 after 4 weeks, that's probably why nobody noticed I had the procedure done. It's really starting to take on the appearance of a full head of hair now. One more thing I notice is that they transplanted almost 100% black hairs and the only grey I have is now at the sides - just another bonus. I will post up pictures again after Christmas.

Thanks for the post. It's nice to read someone who shaved. That's what I would do. Personally I would upgrade your not sure status. It looks like great work to me.

I am keeping my hair at 3mm length all round. Not using minoxidil. I had to keep my hair tidy because I just couldn't have it looking weird at work. Some people were asking me to post up pictures to see what a close haircut would look like. I'm reasonably happy with the results so far, but, I have to admit that I'm getting a little impatient. I think at this stage that it's safe enough to grow it out; I'll cut it once more on the 4 month mark and let it grow from there. Hope this helps....

Thank you for the pics and the update, coisceimcullen.
I think I can see some pimples on your scalp under the hair.
Best of luck with your growth season. Your result is much neater at 3-4mm than my own!

Yeah, I have pimples that are coming and going continuously. I hope many more hairs make their way out over the coming months though as I'm getting a little worried that this stage may be coming to an end?
September 28, 2016
coisceimcullen, from other Realself reviews I wouldn't be worried just yet. You should expect to get new hairs coming through for the next six months at least. :)
September 28, 2016
Next six months....very good. Took a look at your review there, it's progressing well. Probably something similar to my own.
September 29, 2016
Mine and yours mainly differ in the fact I haven't cut the new hair. Most people trim it but I'm hoping to play around with it when it's a dent length.
Not to resemble a Donald Trump Do, though!
