Chrisis' 2650(ish) FUE with Dr Feriduni

[drybone]

Chris your photos look great. You have a full head of hair now. Very well done!!!!



Would you consider a touch up FUE or are you done?

[chrisis]

It is exactly 3 months since I had surgery in Belgium, so here's a quick photo to mark this milestone



A photographer will be taking a full set of high quality photos next week.

Comments appreciated

I just thought it wouldn't be fair cos I've had 5,400 grafts extracted and you've only had 2650 ish. And every patient is different remember.

How many you got left in the tank via FUE and FUT?
Did Feriduni give you the hair count for your HT?
What do you think of my results?

I don't think it's worth comparing unless both are cut to the same length. Does it make a difference if you have 2800 or 5400 via FUT? Would the scar be any different?

I know I am "blessed" with a rich donor supply and only need another 600 if I lose my midsection. I am not sure exactly how many more grafts are available via FUE, but I'd assume another 3000 or so.

I don't have the details of the hair count for my surgery but I'll ask Dr Feriduni in due course. He will have documented it.

Finally, I think your result is good!

I'll be happy to compare, but will you be comfortable shaving down to a #1?

Cheers I'll read through it later when I have a bit more time.

Yes

Here you are mate - http://www.baldtruthtalk.com/showthread.php?t=5151

5,400 grafts have been extracted via FUT. I still have lots more available via FUT and FUE.

[chrisis]

Yes please!

You're welcome chrisis.

My thread is just a bit further down if you need any more guidance as to what to expect over the next 9 months. I can link it if you wish?

I made it to help HT newbies out and give back to this forum.

[chrisis]

Thanks El Nino. I've been keeping in touch with Still_Researching who has been an excellent "e-mentor" for me during this experience and I'm grateful for his support. He had the same surgery as me with Dr Feriduni

Can't wait for 3 months and beyond.

Have patience chrisis, very early days yet. Take a look at spex's patience thread, just run a search it is very informative.

I know it is hard though cos I've been through it twice already, my first was over five years ago now, can you believe it.

Whoa. It's coming along really well at such an early stage. Great that you went with Dr. Feriduni. His team have massive experience in FUE. Really enjoying the updates.

Chrisis ,,after seeing this before and after photo I hope that you dont mind if i use the word -FANTASTIC again.
It is truly amazing what HTs can actually DO. In ONLY 74 days you have progressed so well.
Your experience is just another perfect example for 'Joe from Staten' to consider!

Thanks Artista, I'm pretty encouraged at this early stage I just went for a run without a cap for the first time in years.

Every day is progress! Can't wait for 3 months and beyond.

Smokemeakipper, I still wear caps but it's not really necessary. I just prefer them to having very short hair.

rugger31 & JJacobs152, supplied pic below which should give an idea!

Thanks Artista.

Here's a photo comparison of Day 31 v Day 74. Full 3 month update still to come in a couple weeks.

Chrisis --FANTASTIC! Congrats again
