27 Year Old Suffering from Thinning Hair, 2400 Grafts with NeoGraft

Areas are filling in well, however I still feel a prickly baby hairs in many places in the crown and front corners. I have read and heard that full thickness/density results can take up to a year - year and a half. Still satisfied with the results so far, and glad I had the procedure.

Hair growth is a slow process. At six months, the transplant sites are definitely growing in. There is still a lot of prickly baby hairs that are just beginning their growth stage from the transplant -so I am hoping over the next several months to get better density.

Tomorrow will mark the two-week post-op date for my 2,400 neograft surgery. The first two weeks were a little difficult, not too bad. The first few days required being very careful where to sit down, how to lay down, staying indoors, etc. My wife washed my hair for me after the third day via the baby shampoo gentle rinse method with a cup of warm water. I did this once a day. For the first two or three days I used a sponge bath for the rest of my body. I did not encounter too much swelling post-op, however there was some discomfort in the back of my head (donor area). I took pain pills for the first 10 days. Days 6,7,8,9, and 10 perhaps did not require pain pills, but as I had them and was staying at home anyway, I took them to sedate myself from the discomfort. At day 9, the heavy scabbing that formed over all the receipient sites began to flake off. I was returning to work on day 10 and therefore wanted the scabs to be gone. On day 9 i put baby oil gently on my scabs and let it sit for 25 minutes, and then rinsed with baby shampoo, gently massaging the recipient areas (no picking) and this did wonders for getting the scabs off. By morning of day 10 I was virtually scab free (at least noticeably). On days 10-13 there was still noticeable pain in the donor area, however managed by a few motrin every 6 or 8 hours.By day 13-14 I find is finally subsiding.
It is nice to have a visible hairline, due to the transplanted hairs. I know that these transplanted hairs will shed in the coming weeks/months anyway, however, this is all a portent of lasting growth to come later.
I have gone to Dr. Genter's office twice now for a light therapy. As I am at the two week mark now, I finally feel comfortable taking a normal shower with special shampoo and conditioner products, sleeping without a neck pillow, and wearing non-button down shirts all the time. I can also start going back to the gym and doing light workouts.

Will post again in 2 weeks.
Cheers
