I'm at 4 months now. I'm letting my hair grow out. I still have some discoloration in my hairline, but things are improving. I'm starting to have some growth, mostly in zone 2, still waiting for growth to start in my hairline...I'm able to hide my HT pretty well...I think.

Alot of the redness has subsided, I still have a little bit in my hairline. Also still developing pimples. My native hair is returning (thank god!!) I think there is some growth activity in my right and left temples...i also feel stubs in zone 2 behine my hairline...hard to show pictures of this because of my native hair. In some pics I have messy hair to show where I had some of the work done and some pics to show I how wear my hair.

Well, I'm a few days past my 2 month mark. My hair still appears thinner than it was pre-op...not looking good these days. I'm concerned that most of my native hair isn't going to return. Also my my head is still red. I see some stubs but nothing really exciting to report.

I shed alot of my grafts from my hairline, but I think I managed to hang onto alot of them as well. I still have some faint redeness in my hairline. I also developed a few pimples. I buzzed my non-recipient hair with a 2 guard to help blend the graft site 4 weeks post-op...it didn't really work.

Alot of reddness. Alot of the grafts still in place, my native hair growth is lagging and actually alot of them aren't growing at all. At this point I think my hair is thinner then I was pre-op...especially in my temples (left worse then right).

Donor site

Here are some pics of my donor site. The first picure is 3 days post-op. The second picture is 9 days pot-op. I have a pink birth mark on the back of my head that runs doen to my neck...its not inflammation or infection. The donor site has healed nicely.

After sitting in the not so comfortable chair for 12 hours this is the finished product. My head was extremely swollen and numb from what I remember. I had 3100 grafts placed by FUE.
