FredtheBelgian's FUE - 2000 grafts with Dr. De Reys - 24 Years Old NW5 from DPA

[Diffuser44]

It's looking pretty good. So your hair will fall out first? How does that work exactly?

[fred970]

All grafted hairs go into telogen phase due to the shock of being transplanted roughly after 3 weeks.

update?

[fred970]

It's only 2,5 months after the FUE. There's still pretty much nothing up there.

A hair breaking through there and there but nothing substantial.

I have some acne developing where the hair is growing, I read this was a good sign on the Hasson & Wong website.

I think I will post pictures by month 4, when I hopefully have something to show.

3 months update

Well I didn't expect to see so many hairs at this point, I'm supposed to have 10% of the final result I'll get in 9 months and I must say I'm already pretty happy with my hair buzzed. I went back to my minoxidil use 2 weeks after the procedure and I think it has given me a head start. It's so cool to have my frame reappearing. The way things are evolving now, it's like having reverse male pattern baldness. Other than that the donor seems clean and untouched to me.

Hi Fred,

This is really great! These photos are much better quality by the way too, you can really see what's going on here.
Definately helps get the 'frame' back and reverses the horseshoe of nw5. This is great to see that you can regain from nw5 and back to having the top more blended with the sides.
Also particularly interesting, you had FUE and there really isn't any visible scaring I know, this topic has been debated on the forums and the bald truth show about FUE scaring - from these pictures, you really can't see any scaring. I guess this is because of fue punch size and skin colour? Or was the debated thing only about when people get a tan or something?

And of course, if you want to buzz the hair, you could only really buzz down with fue (you can't after strip of course).
So your hair looks pretty good as it is now, I think Though I am curious, if with your new regained hair, are you thinking about growing it longer? I know in that situation, I would probably start wondering how it looked longer, to see how it looked.

Thanks for the update! Really interested to see this and your progress as it continues, cheers

These are looking brilliant, congratulations!
Also - you have the perfect head shape for this hairstyle - keeping it short definitely works for you!

Wow! Looks excellent. Can't believe this is only 3 months post-op. Continued good luck.

Already looks good mate, I imagine it will get a helluva lot thicker. Well done. I still think you chose the right balance of hairline vs density for the available grafts.

Looks very good, nice to frame your face again, congratulations and good growth.
