All pictures were taken this morning and its not till you sit down and look at them yourself that you realize how far you have come.I am by nature a perfectionist so I am my own worst critic but to say I am gobsmacked at this early stage is an understatement!
I did tell Janna that I am a quick healer but at 4 months I am elated at where I am but un-shore as to how much more will come if I am this far on already?
I had nothing at all on my hair either no minox etc hair unwashed-just wet and then dried.
I look forward to hearing your views and your excellent words of wisdom and will update again at 8 months with I hope the same amount of growth again-might even let it grow out a bit! lol
Have a great hair day everyone-speak soon1

PS sorry about the quality of some picks but its a bugger taking ;em on your own but I can repeat these as I took 'em In the downstairs loo where the lighting etc will always be the same!)(_::
Just looking at these again and one thing I am really pleased about when ogling in the mirror is that I am finding it hard to spot those horrible carrot rows that drove me over the Atlantic to Sir Ron in the first place.
When Ron sat me down at our first consultation he told me there was good news and not so good-being the eternal optimist I asked for the not so good first.
'You have average to below average density and fine hair caliber' he said, 'But the good news is you have a small area to fill so we can really pack the grafts closer together'.
So it pays not to have a melon head so although my graft count was not at the top end the area to place them in was much smaller than most so the overall outcome should be as good if not better....he says while saying a silent prayer to the hair God's.
A top banana result so far dudes so here is to popping a little pro-scar and rubbing a little Minox for the next 4 months!

Well done Masher! You are coming along very nicely....great improvement so far. It's difficult to say just how much more hairs will grow but you'll definately see some more growth and thickening. You have fine new hairs continually maturing for the next year. With you having previous work, your transplant may improve till 18 months post op. In any event, you are looking great at 4 months and we're thrilled for you. I think it might be a good idea to let your hair grow a bit longer now. Thanks for the update.

Thanks, Janna and for your kind comments Peachy-sorry they are a little late Janna but here are my 6 and 7 month updates, I know I said every 4 months but I think the improvement is significant enough to post a little early.I am thrilled with my new hair and how it looks and if I got no more improvement in the next 6 months I would still be 100% satisfied.
I have taken it all back to a number 7 cut as there are many hairs of different lengths, thicknesses etc and I am sure more coming through.I am still taking proscar 1mg a day and .5ml of minox' once a day rubbed in after I wash my hair morning only.I have the weekend off all med's and supplements something I have done as an athlete for many years as I feel it just gives your body a break, which is only a good thing in my opinion.
My regards to the Master, your good self and all the hard working troops at SMG. Z:B

Hey you Hairy beast! Looking great - so happy for you.

You are right, there is significant growth there at 6 months. I too think it'd be great to see some pictures from slightly further back - similar to the shots of pre-op and immed post op.

Thanks for the update....I know several people have been waiting.
