    Beard into scar takes a while to grow so I will get some more pictures up soon, I am really lucky to have the beard donor to make improvements, I feel sorry for those who have exhausted their donor and have no chance of a repair.

    Talk Soon

    Looking good. Your hair on top is looking solid. It's one thing to have a strip scar and reasonable coverage on top. It's particularly distressing for those men who have donor scars and thin to no hair on top. Beard hair works great for repair work as well as thickening things up where needed. It does look natural and blends right in when placed correctly.

        That's possibly the worst closure I have ever seen on a strip scar, and I've seen a lot!

          In total 3800 grafts from my face/chin, I have no visible marks or scarring from these extractions, or visible areas of thinning, the extraction pattern was well planned from the outset.

            It is hard to explain the immense feeling of freedom these repair procedures have given me. I have been given my life back!

            I no longer have to avoid social events or position myself so that others cannot see the back of my head, I no longer feel utter terror on a windy day, when my hair was blown, and people ask if I have been in an accident! I can actually cut and style my hair!

            These things are so easily taken for granted, research is key, if in doubt do nothing.

              The left hand side scar has grown out pretty well also

              Here are some pictures below. I think the repairs have made a big difference to me, I am in a much better place.

              Cheers

                Omg that's a worse strip closure than the other side, it's not even closed, did the janitor do this?

                  What a transformation! Looks really great. Dr. Cole did around 300 beard on top for me about a week and a half ago. Beard hair feels "spiky" as the transplanted hair continues to grow for a while before going into its normal brief resting phase. The caliber is generally thicker than scalp hair, but beard blends right in with existing scalp hair.

                    Thanks Chuck, I feel blessed to have the amount and quality of beard hair that I have. It certainly comes in useful to repair the strip scarring I am not so blessed with. I read doctor Cole achieves a really high yield with beard due to his storage solutions. Could you elaborate on this as its of interest not only to myself, but I am sure other repair clients also.

                    Let us know how you're beard grafts come along

                    All the best

                      updated donor picture

                      Here is a close up picture I took this morning. Total extractions from this area now is 3800 grafts.

                      Cheers

                        I believe there's several things that contribute to good graft yield. Dr. Cole uses an electric chilling device that keeps the HypoThermosol graft storage solution at a consistent low temperature. Depending upon the procedure, PRP is mixed into the graft storage solution.

                                Thanks Aztec, much appreciated. I don`t update as much now as the veterans thread is difficult to find.
