I had a 3000 graft fut done from Seager Hair transplant centre in Toronto back in late july.
I'll post pictures of my results for everyone to see!

Norwood 4 pattern
Medium hair shaft thickness
High donor density
NO crown thinning only significant thinning on the anterior.
Started Finasteride and minoxidil about 4 months prior to transplant

Immediate post op. Procedure lasted about 10 hours. It wasn't bad. The anesthetic made it totally painless.

1 week post op. Scar area hurt for about 2 days post op but it was just tender (not painful) by day 3. Scabs began to wash off on day 7-8 and small hairs began to grow.

2 months post op. New hair growth! Started to get some minor bouts of Folliculitus which is a good sign of regrowth, not painful just a bit itchy!

Just over 3 months post op. More hair growth and thickening of the newer hairs! I've noticed a substantial difference over the past month as the hairs become longer and thicker ans the density continues to improve!

Hi Cody95. Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your story.
Those 3000 grafts have already created the beginning of a new hairline at 3 months. You look as though you healed very quickly as well.
I think this will totally transform your appearance once it`s grown out.
What doctor performed the surgery?
All the best.

Thanks! I'm very encouraged at the early results I am seeing! The healing process has gone very smoothly and my FUT scar is hardly noticeable at all.

The doctor that performed this was Dr. Aditya Gupta. He is very experienced and came highly recommended here in the Greater Toronto area! Its still preliminary but I do think the final results of this transplant will be life changing.

So far it looks good which is very promising. If you know more of his patients it would be great if they shared their stories too.
It's good to hear you have a good Fut scar. It would be great to see a picture of it if possible.

Hard to get a good pic of the scar but the skin is still just a bit red in this one section but otherwise you can't even tell. Also, I'll reach out to some people I've spoken with who have had work done with Dr. Gupta and hopefully they'll share their stories too!

That scar looks good and appears to have hairs growing through it which would indicate a trichophytic closure.
It would be great if you could get a few more to share their story. I see Dr Gupta has Sure Hair in Toronto so must work out of both clinics.

Yes I believe he does work both clinics because I dealt with surehair and seager. Either way, its been a good experience thus far. So excited to see the months ahead!

I took a look at Dr Gupta`s profile and realised I`ve actually met him in person at the ISHRS conferences I regularly attend.
I think your result will turn out good judging by your progress.

You continue to have a lot of growth and at 4 months it looks great. I like how the hairline has been staggered which I believe makes for a more natural look in Caucasians.
You must be pleased with how it's progressing.

4 awesome repairs with SMG
Your hairline is looking great for only 4 months plus I think your scar will be barely visible in a year's time.

Wow, that looks fantastic, Cody95! The progress you've made in such a short time is really something. You clearly chose a great surgeon. Best wishes, Matt

Looks great for 4.5 months. The staggered hairline with peaks is really starting to show now. I think you`ll end up with a very natural looking hairline.
Good quality picture too. Thanks for sharing.
