Sorry for the messages everyone, but I have 10-day update pics that I'd like to post.
I can't seem to find out how to post them without a URL? help?

You just go to advanced, or click the image link.

First, congrats on getting your HT done. It is a big step.
Second, a lot of what you are hearing is true. Your story is concerning to some people here, myself included, especially as it sounds like a significant waste of harvested grafts (plus the fact that not 100% of your implanted grafts will grow...).
My advice is just see how this turns out. You will likely need another surgery down the road and if so it is fine. As long as you like the way you look in the end you win.

Thank you
Your grafts appear fairly spaced out. To obtain the illusion of a full head of hair, top doctors will tightly pack transplanted grafts. As mentioned though, it is a wait and see game for you now. It is all speculation based on very early stage pictures. Good luck!

As an example,take a look at the picture of this patient shortly post-op. His grafts were transplanted nearly touching each other. That's what i meant by density.

Well that's very unfortunate. . I can only hope you're wrong, but I definitely can see what you're saying.
Thanks for the input

New pics I uploaded are 10-days post op. I'm going to try to upload a few more tomorrow since it's been a month.
I was told the new hairs should or will shed before appearing normal, but my normal hair is growing in thicker than the new so it doesn't look great. I'm hoping once it's longer it will look better.
I really hope the results are at least worth it in the long run..I guess I could have done more research but a HT was never even on the table for me until this opportunity came up.

Any updates on this, how is the progress so far?

Thanks for the update Parker,
10 day post op pics look very good and promising. Congratulations on taking your first step.
Best of luck going forward.
