    Does this look like proper density on the hairline? Anything worrisome?

    Just had an FUE transplant -- Around 1500-1600 grafts.

    I didn't do as much research as I probably should have, mostly into the procedure itself and not the actual clinic.

    It was a team of technicians (not a doctor), but the lead technician had many years of both FUT and FUE transplant experience.

    Of course, after the fact I started reading into improper density, and horror stories about multi's being used in the hairline.


    Is the attached picture indicative of either a good surgery, or a poor surgery? Or is it still too early to tell?

    For reference, this picture was on day 2 post-op, and I am currently on day 7.

    Generally speaking, if the techs are experienced and the clinic has a high standard for aesthetics then you'll be fine. Not sure what you mean by "improper density" but it looks like it is moderate and, at worst, may require a small second pass. You might be happy with it once it grows in, so be patient, and don't second guess yourself. It is useless at this point anyway.

      Hi Joe! Coming from somebody with as much knowledge as you, this is very reassuring.

      Patience is key at this point, I suppose.

      Feeling positive again, so thanks!

          Three month update

          Thought I'd jump back in and give a three month update -- I have a lot of photos in between, I just haven't gotten around to cropping them all.

          Hoping to put a timelapse together at the end of it all.
