those temple fills transform

"Rahal FUE" is the trademark

Konior could trademark "Konior Fue" if he wants...or "Spanker FUE?"

just kidding

No No, not the size of red outline lol, its just right above my donor area. Not sure if it's visible in the pic. I will have a haircut today and try posting one more pic.

oh lol

that is an ingrown hair / pimple

completely normal

wash with Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash, Redness Soothing Facial Cleanser

with @% Salicylic Acid

Don't pick

I am seeing a lump above my donor area from the start to the end of the donor. It does not cause any pain though. Is this common? I don't feel very comfortable mentally as I am not sure why I am having this. Please let me know if any of you had a similar scenario and if it's something to worry about.

a lump the size of the red outline in the pic?

DUDE, CALL YOUR DOCTOR NOW!

Whatever the motivation behind FC's furious back-pedaling, it's worth remembering that whatever arrangement he and Dr. Rahal come to, he's still gonna have to wait another 8-12 months for the result he should have had after this surgery.

 

I know what that's like; it's horrible so I wish him all the best

He's backpedaling because sometimes young guys like FC post on forums under emotionally heightened stressful times without realizing that what is posted on the internet is there forever, and is not similar to an in person venting that one does just to get a release in the moment....been there myself.

the situation is still horrible, like you said, but hopefully fixable to his satisfaction

This can happen with any doc and does.

The way Rahal is handling this is admirable.

yes

it's done all the time for HT in the hairline section

yes

it's done all the time for HT in the hairline section

Congratulations, to you and the new Rahal center

can't get better than him

he's on my short list

good luck

that looks like some shock loss and a stretching has occurred, which can be addressed later

it does not look infected so no rush to doctor but to ease your fear, send him the pics

he'll just say you have to wait

keep us posted

I will pm the person you said had an HT without meds. Maybe he can inspire me to see Rahal.

he's supposed to inspire you to see WONG! lol!

could this be from shock loss of native hair?

Hey,

 

I am a Rahal patient and I did soooo much research and ultimately selected him based on results. I wouldn't worry about traveling further or money in that this is your head and your life. Convenience unfortunately never is ideal as I too traveled over 10 hours to get my procedure. It was not easy at all but if you want results you will go to the end of the earth to get them.

 

With that said, Dr. Rahal is a wonderful choice. I would however meet with both of them in person and see whom you feel most comfortable with. I met Dr. Rahal in person and even had some of his former patients come in so I can check out their results in person which really sold me vs. seeing pictures on a computer so I recommend that approach as well.

 

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me!

any recent pics?

i see your page only has up to 9 months

email or pm if better for you

congrats on your great result

you can have your lower face strengthened (jaw implants/dermal fillers) in addition to lowering the hairline

maybe with this combination of procedures

you won't need to lower the hairline as much in order to bring everything into the proportions you want

get on fin and minoxidil then go on some consultations

really good!

congrats

Sure, go to rahal.

may have used it post op

do a search on a rahal patient named "capelli11"

looking good for 4.5 months

congrats

You are fine

i did the same thing for longer and mine all grew

the swelling was a b*tch!

get on fin and minox

your hair maybe starting to diffuse

gotta go with konior for FUT in the USA

he does it all

he's superman

if you are noticing hairloss at 22 then it doesn't look good

will you go completely bald?

and by what age?

no one knows for sure

my friend has a full head of thick hair at 40

his brother diffuse balding at 35

their dad was a cue ball growing up

their grand dad died at 90 with hair that resembled a shag rug atop of his head

so you just never know.....

if your really want an educated guess, you can go to one of the recommended surgeons here for an evaluation and possibly get on finesteride and regaine to halt the process and most likely grow some back and more

if you are noticing loss get on the meds sooner rather than later

good luck

can't get better FUE

congrats

It has been awhile since I have posted on this forum.. I hope everyone is doing well.. Has anyone experienced severe itching in there donor area a few years after having a hair transplant with strip surgery? I am getting severe itching right around my donor area scar several times a day.. Sometimes it goes away. But when it gets itchy it is really annoying. I try to get used to it.. When I had my surgery acell was used in the donor scar.. Also I did have temporary SMP on the scar.. I tried putting hydrocortisone cream on the scar area but that dosen't seem to do anything for the itching. I am thinking about getting fue but am very cautious about doing this due to the fact of the itching that I am getting in my donor area from the strip surgery.. Has anyone encountered this problem with fue in there donor area as well after a few years of having surgery? The last surgery I had was January of 2011. I had the temporary SMP about 1 year ago.

it's just the scar tissue contracting and remodeling

yes this process occurs years after a wound

there are nerve endings all around scars, itching comes from stimulation of those endings.

In early healing, such stimulation can come from the processes of healing itself.

But later, the mechanical stretching of scar tissue next to normal tissues can stimulate nerve endings and cause an itching sensation. since you had tattoo-ing into the scar this definitely added to the stimulation

DEFINITELY!

too much HC can thin the skin

it's the nerve endings so quit the HC

maybe some numbing cream if it is really that bad or internal nerve sedative if you can't function.

nothing to worry about though

get the fue

you'll be fine
