I've a long history with baldness as I lost my hair early 20's...I even don't remember how was my hairline looked like.
I have just finished my SMP treatment yesterday and I wanted your opinion regarding the final results.
I can't stop looking at myself in mirror or taking photos in a different light as I'm totally in doubt if it went right or wrong.
Please help.....
Here are some photos in different lights using extra camera flash too.

I kept shaving since 2010 around 10 years of shaving day after day...I even never let may hair grow maybe more than 3 days. When I started SMP treatment they told me to leave my hair closer as much as possible but not fully shaved to blend SMP treatment with natural hair...and the surprise that I found my natural hair do not grow as expected from 10 years ago. It became very thin and not even.
I think hair transplant will not work for me eather. The donar area will be very weak.
Anyway that was my head before and after, I still didn't take any photos in the natural light yet, but once I do I will post them....but initially what is your opinion!!

It`s still hard to judge with the lighting. It does not look bad. Some dots look a little big ut that may be due to them not settling down yet.
Pictures in natural light and a few not so close up will make it easier to comment on.

In my opinion the hairline looks too pointy
Maybe that's why u are not sure about how it looks
But ur smp looks not bad
Differcult ain't it cos u will always be picking faults about ur hair

Could you please define "too pointy"?
Do you think that by time it will not be recognized?
I have been told pigments need time to settle down, how much time?
And what should I do to speed up settling pigments down into the skin without losing too much of pigments?

Hi mate
Its just right at the front of ur hairline
Just a very Slight point v shaped
Appearance
I'm not that clued up on smp
I've have 3 hair transplants poorly angled etc etc so not happy
So my eye for hairlines is a bit obsessive
Looks good through

Just took a good look at all the pics u posted
The dots look natural so that is a good result regarding the shape of the hairline I think the line is quite strong,
Maybe needs to be softer but over time this could happen
Just my opinion mate

It's just I forgot how my looks like with hair line and never saw my self with one long time ago, and as you said I am not sure if it's too low, too sharp,v shape over acting (lost the sense of hairline dimensions with my face). Still did not show my self to my family, friends and colleagues as I have just freshly finished the treatment and I am afraid someone tell me it is not looks natural at all. That's why I asked for your opinion. Nothing will be better than sharing our experience, as experinsed members with hair lines like you will give me their impression regarding it..
What terrifying me is that I get to the point where I have to fix/remove hairline to the back and get into laser treatment cycle.
That is my biggest fear, cause I don't know if SMP leave scars after laser treatment or not and what if I decided to remove it all and get bald again!!
A lot is going into my mind, overthinking ...

Mate I totally understand how u are feeling
Paying all that money and still wearing a hat or hiding
I am like that still
If it was me let it settle down for a bit and see how u feel about it
If u are still not happy u can always go back to the clinic and get it laser just at the front just to break up the front
They should be able to do it free
Where did u have it done and where are u based in the uk ?
Also u will always be ur own critic about ur hair
In pics hair always looks different compared to seeing it in person
U are in a good place to get it fixed easily mate,if it needs fixing

I'm based in Aberdeen-North Sea, the private clinic mate...I think I will take your advise and wait for sometime till pigments settle down. I still not happy maybe touch ups to break the lines would help.

Oh right ok pal
Yeah let it settle down still early days
If u still not happy u could always ring brandwood clinic in Birmingham uk
Think they have other clinics based in uk
Send them pics see if they could help and give advice

They are the best in the uk
