7-Day Post Op

Postby Jeeper11 » Thu Jul 27, 2006 6:41 am

I am posting some 7-day post op pictures. My procedure ended on July 14th, 2006. The lighting wasn't very good, but you will see the healing up to the 7 day mark. At this point 99% of the scabs have fallen off. I believe the biotin spray was the reason my healing process happened so well. I used the spray every hour during the first week I was awake. After the first week, I was using it about every 2 hours.

I used the post surgical gel on the donor site for the first 7-days.

Wow, your healing is superb!!!
The Haircycle biotin spray and gel are a must have for the post-op surgery treatment, your case along with others clearly prove that.

How many grafts did you have?

Very Satisfied

Postby Jeeper11 » Fri Jul 28, 2006 11:15 pm

I saw a thread asking if I was a consult off the street. I wish I could say I was, but that would be lying. I sat in the chair for for 5 long days, but had a great time watching DVDs, telling stories, and talking with the staff. That made the experience even better.

I have had a little skin peeling, but that is starting to clear up. I have experienced very little shedding to date, but I am expecting a little more to fall out. It is the normal healing process after a surgery.

I had a total of 2750 hair and 1020 bht to the front, top and crown. Everything is going well and I will send in some 30-day post op pictures in a couple of weeks. It is so amazing to see the results totally change my appearance.

Jeeper11 - you're healing great. I can't wait to see you picts in a couple weeks. I bet in another 12-14 months you are going to look 10 years younger... you're now starting what I always thought was the hardest part with a HT - the waiting... congrats man - happy healing and best of growth to you!


edit: had a couple duplicate words...

Jeeper11 - just checking back to make sure I didn't offend you. When I said:

"are you sure this was the same guy and not some consult off the street???

;)"

I was referring that it looks like you had not even had surgery because you healed so fast - like a person may if they had come in for a consult not just had surgery less than two weeks ago...

anyways, best of luck to you... attached is a photo of my last FIT HT after at least 10 days and NOT using haircycle... so you can the difference and reason for my sarcasm...

Looks Good

Postby Jeeper11 » Sat Jul 29, 2006 8:21 pm

Your 10-day procedure is healing very well also. I didn't take your comment as sarcasm. I took it as a compliment because I have had a good healing thus far. good luck to you. Looks great so far.

Jeeper11 - my picture was from over 2 years ago and I was impressed with the healing speed w/ FIT over strip but it looks like haircycle totally takes healing to the next level (assuming we both have similiar healing characteristics) - I believed I used graft cyte after that procedure. I am scheduled for another procedure in Sept and am super-excited about giving haircycle a try. many thanks for sharing your picts and please continue to do so. again - congrats!

You have had nearly 7,000 graphs. You must have hair like a hippy by now. Why are you going back for more. I would think after 7,000 you would be perfect?

Thanks for the support.

thx Jeeper11 - "hair like a hippy" - ha - that's funny! I'm hoping to modify my hairline a little, fill-in my strips scars some more, and do some more general filling in all over on top. I think the hairline changes would not be anything cosmetically significant (more of a subtle change and make the front a little thicker) and the addition of more grafts in the donor and recipient areas would cause a more blending effect.

Surgery Photo

Postby CITness » Fri Aug 04, 2006 10:11 am

Hey,

Photos always seem to look better when Hair Cycle is used. In conjunction with FIT, I believe that it will change hair transplant surgery for years to come.

wassup,

I think that a small session of FIT to revise the strip scars would do great for the donor. I think that it is a simple solution and I have seen good results with FIT into scars but it requires special attention on the patients' behalf to avoid disturbance of the grafts. In example, wearing head gear that contacts the area that has been revised.

Head band

Postby CITness » Fri Aug 04, 2006 4:22 pm

Good afternoon,

Here is some information on the headband:

Keep in mind that these bands are not to contact any grafted areas and are usually worn over the coarse of a few days.

If you purchase the hair cycle kit, which includes biotin spray for the grafts, shampoo, conditioner, styling gel, hair spray, and post-op donor gel, it comes with the head band.

Or, you could use a tennis headband or an ACE bandage to help with the swelling.
