No. Give it time - 12 to 18 full months after surgery.

No. They will cycle on their own when they are ready to do so.

I was waiting for your response Tracy, I didn't want to pluck them out without your say so!

At this point in time post-op, you can get more aggressive in removing the dead hair IMHO. I believe that is what Dr. Cole is implying.

The best is yet to come, your REGROWTH!;)

Tracy you are very helpful. Buddy, next time you will need to build a better relationship with your doctor. Each doctor has there own way of treating things and most of us are not doctors on the site.

Good luck buddy. I just got my FUE HT yesterday. I was told not to touch it with water for at least 8 days (implanted area).

Can not wait to see the successful shots.

It's been exactly 3 months since my FUE operation in January. I'm hoping there will be some significant growth soon... basically i would say from what you can see 60-70% of the hairs there, are hairs that haven't grown or fallen out... which is a little concerning... had a few new stragly hairs grow threw though.

At the moment I'm just happy that my hair has grown back so I can resume the hiding lol.

I've attached some wet pics, and some dry both without concealers or anything... it's fairly obvious which is my normal hair and which is transplanted etc...

I would say i've experienced some shock loss at the front, as i don't recall seeing quite as much scalp as before, but again that might just been in my head.

Here's hoping that it'll really start to grow in soon, as I'll be so disappointed if i'm one of the few classified as transplant failures :(

im surprised your head is still red raw after all this time :s.

All I can say is I hope it starts to grow within the next few months.

good luck.

It looks like it is comming along well. It does take time to see the true results. You will know a lot more after a full year has passed.

FRom the pics in Post # 55 I would have said you didn't " need " a HT :confused:

If you look at jimbob's first set of pics from his oroginal post, you can see that he had some significant temporal lobe recession.

His exisitng hair has also grown quite a bit from when it was shaved for the procedure back in January.
