Hey Topcat,its good to hear all is going well and that the beard grafts have continued to grow.You may be lucky and not experience any shedding of the beard hair.

Also good to hear how BHR communicate with their patients post op.

Take care bm.

3 Months Post Op

It's hard to tell from the pictures, but there are many new little hairs coming in. As I told BHR I am very happy so far. Since I use a concealer it really helps to have something to stick to. I am also very optimistic because it seems most of the beard hair did not fall out at all and continues to grow strong.

I also still have almost too much thickness on the sides near the top. So hopefully I can go in for some more beard and chest hair, and then finish up with any available scalp donor that is left on a 3rd procedure.

Here are some pictures at 4 months. I am getting very good growth at this point. There are many hairs coming through and I can definitely see the beard and body hairs because many of them were gray. Although I do have a long way to go, I'm really happy that I started this repair. I have also included some pictures with concealer, because just this one small procedure has made a diference for me already

Hi Topcat.

Thanks for updating,good to hear you are experiencing more growth and that the beard hair is sprouting,there must be quite a bit as the concealer is holding onto the hair nicely.

Take care bm.

Thanks Big Mac

There are quite a few hairs there but I am still trying to figure out how to take a clearer close up picture. I will post one as soon as I have it.

I use Prothik which I was just about to dump because the can always gets clogged up and I don't get full use of the product. I spoke to the company and they are going to replace the bad cans and they have reengineered the spraying mechanism. I must say it is a very good product and qutie easy to use.

Hi TC

Growth looking good for 5 months considering the amount placed. Coming on well and hope it is already making a difference which is what it's all about.

I really appreciate the positive comments. It would be so easy for many not to be impressed at this point. But you have to remember I had very little hair behind that hairline and we are talking about apporximately 900 fue's being placed. It's only the first step and only a small step. Which is what I wanted, to take only a small step. There simply is no jumping in with 2 feet for me any more.

This small step has made all the difference for me since I use a concealer. I am looking forward to taking that next step which wil be sometime in Jan/2011. I think a couple more body and beard hair sessions along with a final attempt at using some scalp donor will make a drastic difference.

At this point I would say the yield is going to be close to 100% and I have no scarring. This was the objective of this first procedure, and the objective has been met in my opinion.
