How come Wayne Rooney's hair worked straight away. His grafts did not disappear as far as I remember, if they did they grew back within weeks.
Is that unusual?

After a hair transplant procedure, the transplanted hair begins to shed at 10 to 14 days and the hairs goes into a dormant phase.
Then at around 3-4 months, growth begins as fine hairs that begin to thicken over time.
Full result can be seen at 12-18 months.
Occasionally, the transplanted hair does not shed like Wayne Rooney by the look of it, and will carry on growing.

5 Month updates
It is now 20 weeks from my hair transplant with Dr Feller in New York.
I had some pictures taken yesterday to show where I currently am.
I saw a forum member on another forum with their pictures arranged side by side, so I sent Spex across my pics and he rearranged them for me.
I am very happy with the current progress, as it is 5 months and still early days, with a lot more growth,maturing and thickening to come.

Looks like you already have quite a bit of growth in those hairline corners, I'm sure it will be fun watching it come in more and more for the next 6-12 months.

Looks very good and good to know Dr. Feller and his staff did such a nice job. Can I ask if you are still taking propecia or something similar and how long (number of days/week) did it take for the redness, scabbing to subside?

The redness took about 3 to 4 months from memory to completely disappear but it did fade gradually over that time.
I did use aloevera and witchhazel at different stages to reduce the redness.
Scabs were ready to come off and were coming off at day 10.
I have been on finasteride for about 5 years roughly and I will be posting some more pics in next few days as I am at the 6 month mark now(half way point).
