Congrats on the HT!!!!!!! Your hair line is positioned really nicely. At 70 hair per cm-squard it will look absolutely awesome when it all grows in.

I'm really very happy for you and look forward to seeing your final result when it all grows in. I noticed that Dr. Rahal doesn't do the jagged line that Dr. Wong does.

I guess when mine grows in we can compare the hair lines to see which technique produces the most natural result. In any case, I am certain you're going to be really happy with your look in about 6 months to a year.

Regards,
Sam

Thanks Sam. You are about a month or so ahead of me but we both have some waiting ahead of us.

Well it is day two post-op and I LOOK FUNNY!! My ear is sticking out at a funny angle and my forehead is huge. I laugh everytime I look in the mirror. The only discomfort that I have is some itching in the recipient and donor areas. Other than that I am just waiting this out and not leaving my house for a few more days. I will post pics on my blog in a few days.

James did Dr. Rahal use the trichophytic closure technique for your scar?

James, I just read your most recent blog entry and saw your pics. I think Dr. Rahal designed an awesome hair line for you. This is going to look fabulous when it grows in!

I posted some pics of my post-op swelling and discoloration. They are not too bad but are a good idea to look at if you are considering this type of surgery.

Looking okay there James! Swelling doesn't look so bad.
