Hey El Nino,

Would love to see the final results if you're still around!

Hi Gandolf,

I've just seen your post, apologies for the late reply.

My hair looks very similar to the 12 month pics but I have had some more maturing. It will be easier to see in better light so I will update again in May two years post op.

I came off Finasteride last July due to side effects so my crown is now probably all transplanted hair. The rest of my hair is holding up well and I haven't lost any from my hairline, mid scalp or crown borders.

Thanks mate, yes I am super happy and wouldn't have done it any different.

Here is a quick compare, I can't be bothered to use ms paint and put them side to side though. In this pic all the miniaturized hair is gone now and my crown is all HT hair.
