    I won't really know if I got any type of donor regeneration for some time. First problem is getting in there to evaluate myself is difficult.... my hair is longer right now. Also, I am hoping to see Dr Cole this spring for a follow-up. I'll let him do a full evaluation on that. Very hard to see any white dotting even when I'm looking for it.

    How many do you think are coming in at this point ejj? Do you think that hairs from triothetic closure may take just as long? I was told that it may take 2 years or longer for the hairs to grow through and it seems about half the docs agree and I think the ones that don't may just be trying to get me in their chair, what do you guys think, or do ya know? Thanks again fellas.

    Thanks ejj, I figured it was true and that is good news as I may not need as many FUEs to fill er up, my middle and much of my left has so many hairs growing through it is very hard to find, it is also the smallest part and flattest. I hope that when my far left and right flatten out more and thus shrinking a bit that more hairs will grow through, that would be great. Yet everyone I have talked to (HT docs, dermatologists, and 2fraxel ladies) say it will shrink. But thanks again ejj.

    Thanks ejj... I'll update on day 90... I'm going to see what I can do about getting some good photos but may need some help on that. Glad to hear your most recent procedure went well... Looking forward to seeing those photos!

    Default 90 day update

    I'm a little late with my 90 day update.... I have attached a few photo's. I'm expecting to start seeing some good growth over the next month or 2. Still no white dotting that is visible even under inspection. Not that I can see anyway. My hair is now back to the length that hides the scars..... at least till there is good growth to attempt a shorter cut.
    Top scar looks good in terms of color and texture. the bottom one is still a little pink and raised. and I'm going to use a silicone base product for now. I'll look into cortisone injections down the road if there is no improvement and once the grafts have grown.

    I should also say that the work we did around the hairline is coming in nicely...
