    Default Hello...new to site...my htp changed my life for the good

    I've previously had one hair transplant of 1100 grafts a few years ago giving myself a new hairline. Though my hair is still thin in front, it made a huge difference in my life. I look different, feel more confident, and just enjoy having a reasonably normal looking hairline.

    I tried everything before undergoing the procedure. Different haircuts, complete head shaving, and I even considered a hair piece. In my teenage days I always wore my hair long, and was always the guy with great hair. When my hairline started to receed up and into the temples...I was devasted. I was only about 19.

    After much researce on the internet, I went to Dr. Konior located in Illinois. it was expensive, but worth every penny in my opinion. I consider myself lucky that I went to a good doctor and that the transplant turned out succesful.

    I have a wife who supports me and has never been concerned about my hair...even when I shaved it all off. This transplant was for me. I am embarresed to say that I am obsessed with my hair, and I wish I wasn't. I feel better in the fact that there are others out there who share this feeling.



    I feel for every bald man out there ...

    I'm glad to be on this site and I hope to share stories and talk to some of you for advise...as I plan on going in for another procedure to thicken up my newhairline.


    Thanks

    Default Hi Caresabouthair

    Welcome to the forum..your hairline looks great! Im actually suprised you look that good with only a 1100 grafts added,but since I didnt see pre-op photos in your profile, Im assuming you were only receding for the most part with little or no loss on top?Whatever the case,I wish you luck with your future HT's. Ive personally just finished my first 1800 graft session and everything is going fine so far.

    I concur, I've heard nothing but good things about Dr. Konior. Unfortunately, there are many who make poor choices because they did not do any type of research so you should consider yourself lucky. Bad work gives the HT industry as a whole a bad name. Best wishes for your second procedure.
