    Actually I think I should take some more pictures of my right side next week, mm?

      I quickly expect to hear suggestions for ntaking new pictures, if needed. Thanks

        Hi mate, sorry I'm low on free time these days. I did take a look at your pictures last week but I couldnt make much sense out of them, let alone count hairs. Not sure how the pics link into each other and the angles indeed were problematicly different

          To clarify,
          Post #190 contains "before"-photos and "11 months after" -photos. These should be quite enough for the analysis, when successfully linked. (Sorry, I should have ordered the pictures better. But my computer is at the end of its leash, so it probably takes 10 minutes just to move one layer.)
          Post #192 contains a nice picture, which I was planning to add to the "before procedure" image.
          Post #194-#195 just shows you how some of the above images are linked. You can see the orange shape which I randomly drew; it's the same orange shape in all pics an angles.

          I hope I'll have time to take more pictures soon and help you with properly linking them... but that's all for then.

            Any updates guys?

            I am, like many others, very very greatful for you guys helping everyone find out the truth about HST. I guess we will have the final conclusion soon - if it works or not.

            IF you can prove there is no donor regeneration at all I guess the only way forward is a lawsuit or settlement with HASCI?
            I am, however, considering HASCI to be innocent until proven guilty, so I will definitely await the final conclusion before saying anything negative about their treatment.
            I am still really hoping it does work. Otherwise I have already made a very bad decision to undergo several HST:s.

                and how is your result after several HST (how many?)
                I am considering going for a second but cannot do that in the coming months, rather 2017.

                  There's no way for me to take new pictures using natural light, before end of next month (the sun is now too high to reach any of my rooms). In the meanwhile I was hoping someone would try to count all the hairs in the recipient using the existing before and after-pictures. Let someone tell me it can't be done.

                    So your approach would be to just count ALL the hairs in the both recipient areas that was implanted in ? And then do that for after and before ? Hmmm interesting idea, I think that would work better than trying to pinpoint every extraction point ... In that case we'd just need to link before and after without having to pay much attention to the extraction points themselves (other than making sure that we've pinpointed the whole area)

                    Still, it's quite difficult since there are a lot of those light coloured hairs, like you're wondering if it's even there or not, both in before and after ... This seems to complicate the recipient a lot compared to the donor. However this seems to be much more the case for the after photo's, which is a good thing cause these can be shot again. The before photo's seem to be clearer.

                      I'm getting the impression that a lot of those 'thin' hairs in your recipient are hairs that just started growing in the last few months. Maybe it all gets clearer in a few months when those hairs have grown thicker. Hairs that start growing after a transplant, after haven fallen out, always start to grow in that same manner (very thin at first). So maybe we should wait a few months and then shoot the photo's again, what do you think ? Of course we could count before already (and even have a go at after of course)

                      *EDIT*

                      Look, here's an example of what I'm saying: http://hasci-exposed.com/images/example.jpg

                      These are new hairs that just started growing in the last 1-3 months. They start as very thin hair and mostly are curled in a weird way (which tends to get better of the months). I think this complicates the process at this point. I think it might be a lot easier to count in a few months, once these hairs are a bit thicker.

                        To consider pinpointing every extraction (implantation?) point, the before/after shooting angles should have to be very identical. But I'll somehow hope to achieve that at the end of July.

                        I'm getting the impression that the recipient looks the same as two months ago anyways.

                        Yes some of the hairs were strangely curled, but got better with time.

                          Hmm sorry about the delay. Been very busy last month. I'll try to take the photos soon

                            I've got myself some 200 new photos to sort out, today 15 months after the procedure. Looking pretty good, we'll see

                              I put the groundwork in place. The photo angles are beginning to match, but at this stage progress is gonna be very slow. (And my computer is even slower.)

                              After (August 2016)
