1-Year Followup on May 10, 2016
I went in to Dr. Diep's office for my 1-year followup. The attached pictures were taken by him. My hair looks quite dark in this pictures; maybe it was due to the light in the office.
I mentioned to Dr. Diep that as far as I could tell I never had the shedding phase. The transplanted hair stayed in and started to grow. He attributed that to the A-cell treatment. (Although whether this ever happens to other people I have no idea.) There isn't much else to mention about the followup as everything was fine.

Update at 11 months
Here are some more pictures at 11 months. It doesn't look all that different from 7 months. No scar is visible, though I don't usually keep my hair super short. It's not a problem.
I had read somewhere that you should expect about 50% hair growth at 6 months, then something like 80% at 9 or 10 months, etc. But I didn't seem to follow that pattern. First, I didn't have the typical shedding. The hair that was transplanted just stayed in. So by 5 or 6 months I pretty much had it all.

Update at 7 months
Here are a couple of pictures at 7 months. One shows the hairline in case you are curious about that. In these pictures I actually haven't cut the top hair since the surgery. Although it's long it doesn't seem like 7 months of growth so I assume it's growing slower since my scalp is trying to heal at the same time. But I did cut the back and sides at about 4.5 months after surgery. I just cut it myself using a razor with a 1-inch guard. That's the time I stopped wearing a hat.
