Im so happy your hair grew back in. I can only imagine what that felt like. Your hair looks think and beautiful. I am at 5 weeks post op. I lost hair right behind my incision. One side of my head seems to have hair growing back in but the front and other side haven't yet. Did you notice one side starting to grow before the other. When did you notice the hair starting to grow back?
December 15, 2016
thank you! hmmm i'm not sure to be honest! it did take a good few months to fully cover over though and now it just needs more length and that will be it back to normal (i hope!) :D have you posted a review?
December 16, 2016
No i haven't posted one yet. I figured I'd wait until my hair starts growing through my entire incision and not just one side before I give an honest rating to this surgery. Maybe I should just do one regardless. I'm upset my hair hasn't grown back in places. Are you using any scar cream ?
December 16, 2016
5 weeks is very early days! It will take a few months. But trust me, don't worry, it will grow back :) i just had to forget about it for a while and let it grow. No, no scar cream. My surgeron gave me CE Furlic serum which i put on every day.
I also take viviscal hair tablets twice a day which i think have helped the growth!

I am also taking vivascal twice a day. Thanks for positive thoughts, I'll keep you updated!

Also I am finally noticing little tiny hairs behind my incision where I lost hair growing in at least in most areas. They are very thin but nothing minus a couple of hairs (3-4) through the scar. When your hair started growing back was the hair through the incision the last come in ? My left side is healing well behind and through the scar.

Hey. I have a question. When you had your hairloss and spoke to your doctor about it what was his response?
December 2, 2017
Lovely pictures.
Could you kindly hold your hair back at the hairline and take a close picture of the scar so we can actually see it? Many thanks.

I am going through the same thing at the moment. This brings me hope xx

4 months- hair is growing! Short and fluffy lol!

4 months since op. Hair is fluffy and short at front but growing very quickly :) i'd say i'd be able to have a fringe in about 8 weeks. The hairs are about 2 inches or so long so sweeping them to the side until they grow longer.
