9.5 Month update from surgery with Dr Feller
These are my latest pictures of my hair taken recently 9.5 months post surgery from Dr Feller in New York.
I know it is a bit suspect with my sisters hair band but it was just to show my hair pulled back when it was dry.
Then there are 3 other pictures with my hair wet on top and one of me before I was off out on saturday night.
As previously stated in another thread previously, I extremely grateful that the major forums exist such as this one, opening my eyes to all the great surgeons out there.
I am also very grateful to Spex for giving me excellent, honest advice and Dr Feller for performing surgery that has restored my hair to a level I didn't think was possible and restoring my self esteem to optimum levels.

Looking good! I hope my result is as successful. I'll hopefully be where you are in about a year or so....

I had two smaller procedures from the Uk when I was younger, one fue and one strip.
The previous strip scar was cut out in the op but I still have an fue scar on the left hand side of my head.
My hair is long and thick so unless I took my hair down to a very short blade, I couldn't honestly tell you but my sister had a look and she had a hard job finding it.
I didn't see the point in having fue considering I had a strip scar already and the fue scar I have is more evident than the strip as it was clustered together and done by a poor clinic in the UK.

Chris, what did you do to hide your transplant while you were recovering (and until you're buzzed areas grew out)?
I'm surprised that you felt the need to get another HT, as your hairline looked pretty good previous to this last operation. My current hairline is about where yours was AFTER you got shaved for your HT.

I hear ya'. I'm self-conscious about my temples, too, and would like to wear my hair much shorter than I do.
When you buzzed your hair, were you able to see your scar? Also, are you just on Propecia and Rogaine?

I am and only have been on finasteride, have used finpecia and cut proscar into quarters but if for example I suddenly start to lose more hair then I will add in minoxidil and maybe Nizoral.
Regarding my scar, I could probably shave it down to a 3 blade, maybe a bit shorter but I am only guessing. My hair is long, thick and I have no intention on taking it down very short.
If the most recent method of scar closure(Trichophytic Closure) is used and a good surgeon performs the surgery, you could probably take it even lower than that for example Jotronic (who Dr Wong performed his surgery) can take his hair very short but you would expect that as Hasson&Wong performed his surgeries.
