Hi Dazzster, please accept my apologies dude i have been scouring my house for my camera today and couldn't find it;;D so please give me a little time to figure out where the other half has put it because she is an ebay addict)(_::

In the mean time heres a few taken with my phone....they are not the greatest but will give some idea until i find the camera.

I really appreciate the nice things you said and am extremely happy. Being a repair patient i feel i have come a very long way from where i started and couldn't be happier considering the mess i was in in the first place.

poor quality picture and messy hair sorry

front again not great quality sorry

another please excuse pictures better ones will follow

crown considering i only wanted a light coverage here and only a small amount was used i am very happy

Hey Bullinut! Looks great and thanks one, for your story and help, which assisted me greatly during and after my repair at SMG, two for updating. I plan on visiting SMG sometime in February or March for photos and evaluation on one more procedure.

 

[Bigmac]

Looking good Bn, crown coverage is nice considering the modest amount of grafts used there.
We will have to meet up soon.

 

[SADbutTRUE]

Hi Jay,

Thanks for update. It would be nice to get better quality pics but we appreciate what you're able to provide for now. Maybe you can meet Bigmac at the park again and he can take your photos????

 

[SADbutTRUE]

i wanted to ask you this eariler but i just got power back,i lost it for 7 days due to hurricane sandy im amazed that you can go to a 3 guard after having 4 surgerys, do you have any scar tissue left from the norton clinic, or was SMG able to remove it all.your hair looks great , do you have any more plans for another procedure or your good with where your at.

 

[bullitnut]

Hi sad Thankyou for the positive comments. In answer to your question regarding the scar tissue, I believe I have a very small amount left but the majority was successfully removed. What's your hairloss situation dude as I can't say I have read it on the forums anywhere? Are you planning any surgery?

Warm wishes BN

I will post better pics Janna but I think I will give the park a miss as we got some weird looks last time lol but he did get some quality pictures.

 

[janna]

I know, I remember, that's why I was teasing about the park again. No hurry on the pics. I know you are busy. Hope you are doing well.

bullitnut im a nw5a ,im on meds and im planning a HT in about a years time, i have a combforward which isnt fooling any1, but because i was born with a high forehead losing hair on top made the high forehead look worse, so i manily wear hats , and concealer when i have to , but as hairloss is progressive ,the concelear isnt working as good as it used to,ive been researching HTs for about 10 years, i wear my hair comb in a ceaser style, as its the best hairstyle for me,and i like to wear it like that, my plan of attack would be 3000 grafts to front half so it would frame my face and i can comb it forward, and hit the crown later with minimal coverage, im debating between HnW or SMG. hope that answers your question, ill post a blog myself when the deal goes down,

 

[SADbutTRUE]

bullitnut if you look at smg website at the major gallery patient 18 ,had a little over 3000 grafts and styles his hair in a combforward style.there was another one but i cant find him, he wears his hair in a comb forward style as well.if you have any more questions feel free to ask. ill answer them in a different thread ,dont want to mess with ur thread.
