Progress so far...

I decided to write this post to summarize the progress so far.  So I created a collage of photographs from all months. Find below the month wise progress at one place to make it easy for comparison. 

I had my first haircut after 1 month post surgery. Visible progress started after fourth month. I never experienced any pain during and after surgery. Post surgery care is very important. Complete hair growth is expected in 12 months. The surgery doesn't restrict you from doing daily business. You can continue working but its good to stay away from pollution, dirt etc.
Choose a surgeon who is personally involved in the surgery and concerned about the progress post surgery.

(Please read the previous posts in sequence if you are serious about the transplant.)

Nine Months after Surgery

After nine months, I am able to comb, oil, have haircut, color and anything else that I could do with my hairs before loosing them couple of years back. 

Off lately, I started paying less attention to the hairs because of work pressure. But it is actually helping. Since 8 months onwards are the actual months where growth happens, it is in my favor not to pay more attention to the hairs thus reducing expectations. I let them grow naturally. 

My routine of applying Minoxydil daily and oil once in a week continues.

The small bald patch still worry me. But it is now almost hidden behind the grown hairs.  Also the small triple and double stranded hairs have grown little further. So may be in next 2 months, I should see the area covered.

Unfortunately I am yet to visit the doctor. My doctor visits the place where I got my surgery done only sometimes. So I have restrictions to meet him. Thats why I recommended (in previous post) to prefer the surgery at the main clinic so as to have regular follow ups.

If you are reading my blog for the first time, then I would advice to also read previous posts to understand different phases of hair transplant decision making and hair growth after surgery.

Thanks. Have healthy hairs!!!
