Your welcome dude, credit where credit is due - the fact that IMHO the best of the best Worldwide post regularly on here speaks for itself.No smoke and mirrors bull shit either just genuine well documented results-from the Surgeons and genuine patients like us who want to tell it as it is. ¬b`
Looks like I may have a last minute booking for the 23rd of this month lol.I do love the excitement of doing things last minute;)

Speak soon mate and will keep you up to speed:::C

Thanks Nutster!

All went well dude, we got 1400 grafts which went into front widening and attaching sides-bringing temple points down and forward and also into mid section and sides of crown.Work as always was top notch and painless and laughed my socks off all the way through at Mrs Browns Boys which you left over there.I had half the meds this time so was awake for 95% of the procedure after conking out completely last time.
Was great to see Janna-Sir Ron and Matt again as well as the lovely Pat and Vikki its almost like visiting family! lol
The only problem I had was when I went into Matts office to get some after shots sorted and then realized after I had left that we got talking about Cycling a passion we both share(I race and Coach)and ended up looking at Matts bikes and talking training etc so never got any done! I have taken some on my mobile so and will upload later! LMAO

Congratulations buddy!!, really happy for you my friend, can't wait to follow your progress again and glad everything was a breeze for you.

Little hard to see from the piccies, but what i can see should make a great cosmetic difference and i am 100% sure the works superb as always, and i'm looking forward to more pictures later down the line.

and as for the Mrs Browns Boys.....love that show its awesome dude lol.

Rest up and heal well dude

Nutster;)

Hi Masher,

Good to know you're home safe and sound. When I read you didn't get post op pictures, I couldn't believe it. But then again, I know you and Matt can both talk for all of England. ;) Well, it's not the end of the world. You'll just have to do a good job of keeping us updated. Wish we could have gotten more out of the donor bank but we both knew it was going to be a challenge.

Great seeing you again. You kept us entertained throughout your procedure. We'll have to invite you back just to keep us company next time. Z:B

Heal well and keep in touch.

Well there you go a couple more shots-only taken with smart phone but will try to get some clearer picks and some help in taking them!
Yes BM we did get some pre op picks taken.Everything looks clean and healing incredibly quick-although I have always been a fast healer and if you remember had substantial growth at 3-4 months last time-so will be interesting to see if we get the same again?

Will get some pics off scar as that feels good and I have feeling around it which is also good in fact my head is still sensitive to touch pretty much all over with very little numbness.
Janna lets all go out and party before the op next time!:T:Z:B ¬b`

Good to hear you'll be getting help taking better pics with a camera. I was questioning some of those pics with just half of the head showing. Is something wrong with the other side........lol?

Party before your next op sounds good. The only thing is spirits are off limits as it thins your blood. Sorry.

The second larger picture looks like you have already been partying and your being propped up by the wall dude)(_::.

Thanks for the extra pics, looks like you have good new coverage around the hairline....can't wait to see it grow in.

Here are Masher's result from his first surgery with SMG. Due to tight laxity in the donor region, 2308 grafts/3855 hairs were harvested and distributed to the frontal 1/2. It's made a nice cosmetic difference.
