Hi, you can wear a hat after 14 days. Some will say sooner, but I played it safe. I had a medical scrub cap that I wore when I went out. At 10 days the implants have taken root and you can begin to shower normally. In fact it's recommended at about 10-14 days when you shower you scrub vigorously to remove scabs.

Nice pictures. Do you have pre HT pictures to get an idea what yout hair loss looks like? Was this FUE or FUT hair transplant? Thanks

Hi, I did FUT and I will try to post a pre-HT pic soon. Thanks

Very helpful, thanks!

Hi, I didn't do the back of my head and my crown area will need a future FUE.

Thanks Matt, recovery is ok, still numb which is expected. I'm almost a month in and anxious to see results!

To be honest I sincerely regret not coughing up the extra $1,000 for the mega session. I was skeptical so I figured I would rather be out $3500 than $4500. But after the procedure I asked her if I can come back the following morning for the FUE and she said it would be $2500 (instead of $1000) because she has to get another surgeon (her husband) and staff. I dropped the ball and regret it completely. One piece of advice I will give you is to get a spray bottle and normal saline solution and spray the area once every 30 minutes for the first three days. She did not include this in her discharge instructions. I went on Google and looked up other surgeons discharge instructions and the majority of them included this and stated how important it was to keep the area moist. Please send me updates, would like to know how it goes.

Awesome advice like this is EXACTLY why I posted here! Just ordered https://www.amazon.com/Blairex-Wound-Wash-Saline-7-1/dp/B0000AACOD will def update on the experience. Planning to write up a detailed report. Cheers!

Make sure to read a few different surgeon post op instructions. You're getting some good advice before the surgery, I'm glad I read it just hours after surgery.

Did you buy the aerosol can saline? Right at the border there are several pharmacies, I just picked up a bottle of sterile normal saline. Mind you the bottles are air tight, I had to use a knife just to puncture the top (obviously wasn't completely sterile anymore) and pour it into a spray bottle (bring one with you). The aerosol may be a bit too forceful on the new grafts. Plus you want to saturate them very well. Consider starting a new forum on this topic if you need expert advice

Hello! What is the mega procedure?? How many grafts? How much does FUE cost?

It's FUT + FUE together in one day. Approx 8hrs in the chair. I got 3550 grafts for $4800. Will be updating my review shortly. So far so good!

Can't wait to see!! :) I'm debating on where to go and what to get. I've been to different consultations, but money is an issue. I can do it in Tijuana, but to do more research.

Can't wait to see your update to the review! :)

Thank you for the encouragement ! I needed to hear that.
