Bisanga 4800 FUT - 1 Year final update

Hi All
My original thread is here:
http://www.hairlossexperiences.com/view_topic.php?id=3148&forum_id=3&page=1

Overall very, very happy. Delighted actually. No regrets. Just so you know, back in the chair at BHR in less than a week for a FUE procedure for my crown.
I was practically bald, and I have to tell you it's so nice having something to style. It makes a remarkable difference to your outlook and confidence.
My current situation is this: 48 years old, not on Finasteride (it caused anxiety, bizarre mood swings and an enlarged prostate - ouch). I'm currently going through what I can only call a second teenage-hood.
I had a FUT procedure. It's invasive, but BHR advised FUT/FUE combo and I think it was the right choice.
Good points:
My hairline design is outstanding, and the overall result is superb. I feel like BHR did not waste my donor, if you told me 'every hair grew' I'd believe you. I enjoy wearing it every day, and never take it for granted.
The link-up between my native hair and transplanted is outstanding. I can't find it.
Bad points:
I have a thin-ish patch about the size of a 50p piece on the left side, you can't really see it too much but will be asking Dr Bisanga to do something about it next week. It's not bald, and doesn't show in most situations, but it won't take much to sort out.
The scar isn't perfect, but in advance of my upcoming FUE I have cropped my hair and you can't really see it. On the whole, no regrets. Remember, I was bald, and I'm not a 25 year old. I was 47 when sitting in the chair.
I've mixed some pictures taken on holiday with specifically taken pictures so you can see what a difference is made. It's nice not being bald.

Thank you for a great, honest forum. It's been great to follow you all on your respective journeys, and there have just been some many positive stories recently.

I'll post lots of new photos when I have my procedure next week. Something like 1200 FUE grafts to the crown.

My tactic has been to shave my head in advance, so I don't look quite to weird when I go back to work in November. will post pictures of the short hair soon.
