Okay, these are actually about 10 days short of a year, but who's counting. My results have been good, but not as good as expected. My hair is still too thin for a "comb over" type of hair style.

To be fair, my hair loss was bad and progressing, so had I not had the procedure I would be on my way to being very bald. I am thinking of getting another 2000-4000 graphs this spring, which will be 14 months after my first procedure.

Tough to answer. For me personally, I was able to have it done in my neighborhood and the staff was great. My expectations were that it would look more "full" when done, but now looking back to my before photos the results are definitely a big improvement. I think I would need another 3-4k to be fully satisfied, but I don't think I am ready to spend another $12-15k.

..... Sprinkle corn flour into your hair, use fingers to even it out, comb, set & spray, you will be amazed how thick & full the hair will be..... much better & easier to remove than the Hair fibre option..... As it is edible, it must be hygienic..... I would rather have to breath that in than fibers.

I'll add some pictures at the 1 year mark. The results have improved over the past few months. I've also been using topical propecia and rogaine. Considering that my hair was thinning more and more and its a year later and I have a great improvement, I am pretty happy. However, I think that I will want another to improve the crown since I didn't have enough hairs to adequately cover that area and also thicken up the rest. I'll probably wait another year before considering a 2nd surgery (so 2 years after the 1st).

Thanks for keeping us updated on your progress, looking great so far -- it takes time, I have read up to 18 months for final results. Hang in there.
