	I just got a strip procedure done by Dr. Armani, everything is going great except for the swelling afterwards, but the surgery was nearly painless. I will be posting pictures as soon as I get them from Shane and Dr. Armani, but everything is going great so far. I had very diffused thinning going to perhaps a 5,6 or 7, and recieved all of my grafts in zones 1,2, and 3. Will be updating soon. Ninjaxan is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO

	» Ninjaxan, » » Why do you have to speak to Shane or Dr. Armani about posting your photos? » They are yours to do with as you please. Just curious. They have the original official pre-op photos, plus I want to get all of the photos they might have during the operation and immediately post op. Im not sure exactly what they have yet because I havent had time to call as of yet. I think my transplant is going great and it filling in pretty rapidly around the temples. The right side is a little slower than the left, but then again everyone seems to have a faster side. I definitely already look alot better than I did before the surgery. The scar is perfect except for the right side which has stretched to about 2.5mm or so. Still I got my hair cut down to a number 3 and the scar isnt visible. Pretty amazing in my mind. Once I have everything I will have pics available to post. Jotronic...I did consider going to hassan and wong but I was really amazed at some of the Armani hairline results and thats really what I was looking for. I think Dr. Hasson would have probably placed the grafts evenly over my balding area, and that approach might have been good, but I really wanted to have my original hairline back as close as possible. I know you guys have amazing strip scars though. Ninjaxan is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO

	Ninjaxan, Thanks for the response. I failed to note in your first post where you did not get your photos when you were there. My bad. Thanks for the props for Dr. Hasson. So anyone that reads this though, Dr. Hasson (nor Dr. Wong) evenly distribute the grafts they take. Higher density in the front is the case for every patient I can recall. Regardless, you made your choice so I wish you the best of growth. Oh, and yes, one side can and usually does come in a bit before the other side so it sounds like your progress is textbook. jotronic is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO --- Joe Tillman aka, Jotronic Hasson & Wong www.hassonandwong.com www.hairtransplanttv.com Joe@HassonandWong.com 1.800.859.2266 The Truth Is In The Results 7917 FU Grafts

	Overall this result is very good. The hairline is absolutely flawless. Amazing density was achieved in this case. I hate to say this but i'm really worried about that scar. It is really visible. I'm still undecided wether to go STRIP or FUE and the look of your scar is NOT encouraging. Other than that you look great. What a difference from your before pictures. Enjoy it!! piperz is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO

	Keep in mind that I used a flash in all of my pictures and the scar is only visible under the flash. All of the redness has faded so there is just a small mark now. I would definitely so go with FUE if you are worried about the scar..and Dr. Armani is focused on FUE now and getting rid of strip as far as I know. My next surgery will probably be 2000 FUE in the crown with a scar revision...I dont think i will need any work on the hairline. Ninjaxan is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO

No this is just something i used to get as a kid...its basically a fungal infection on the scalp..really not common in adults at all but i guess im prone to it for some reason...really odd too cuz i have good hygiene...i was thinking it might be cuz i was drying out my scalp with too many medications. I'm going to the dermatologist thursday to get a better treatment for it...the stuff im using now cured the spots in the temples, but i have a spot in the crown about the size of a quarter. doesnt kill the follicles unless u really let it get out of control.

Just curious. If I were in your shoes I'd wait before having any more work done. Your hair looks perfect right now.

	Just another quick question mate! Did DR Armani mention that you had an amazing/average/below average, hair caracteristics? I had another look at your blog (very nicely done) and I'm still amazed at the result that DR Armani was able to achieve with just 4300 grafts. It is true that you had a lot of resident hair, but I also noticed that your hairloss spread on a very large area. It's beyond me how Armani managed to cover and dense pack such a large area. Maybe this is why he is the most expensive Doc around. (I could never afford Armani's prices) piperz is located in [NA] and he is available to meet: NO

I mentioned that I had switched from finasteride to dutasteride about a yr before my transplant.. For some reason I lost a ton of hair really fast. After my surgery i got back on finasteride and off the dut...For some reason this really worked well for me and the crown is much better.

I really wanted to go with Dr. Armani after months of research. The reason I went with strip is because I could get twice the number of follicles for the same amount of money.

	Hello David, I know you don't like me but I would like to ask you a question. I gather from your post that you had Strip surgery (this came as a big surprise to me as I thought you only had minor work done by GHO) In your opinion the strip scar of Ninjaman is not big as yours is much wider. What is then an acceptable scar in terms of actual mesaurement? Just curious. I really worry when I read comments like yours (although I appreciated your honesty here) because in my opinion Ninjaman scar (actually just part of it) is quite visible. I don't get it.

	Every person has a different tolerance level. Some may say that anything that is larger than a pencil thin scar is not acceptable. Personally, I think if you have anything that is wider than 1/8 of an inch, then you are going to have to make a conscious effort to hide that scar. Nothing is guaranteed when it comes to hair transplant, even if you go to the best in the world. Ninjaxan's strip scar is really not that bad. The visible portion is limited only to the right side whereas mine is visible across the back of my head from the left ear to the right ear. Ninjaxan has plenty of options. He can do a scar revision, he can use FUE grafts or he can even use body hair to break up the scar. The amount of visible scar he has can be easily camouflaged with 100-200 FUE/BHT grafts.

	Thanks for your reply. I appreciate that. I agree 100% on the fact that each one of us has different expectations and tolerance levels. I regard the first pic you posted as the very best one can expect from STRIP in terms of scar detectability (by the way do you know who performed that HT? that scar is barely visible!). I'm quite all right with the fact that I will have a scar for the rest of my life. The only thing I worry about is the entity of that scar. The second pic you posted shows a result that I would personally find difficult to accept. That scar looks huge! Scary stuff indeed. I am trying to gather as much info as possible about Strip because I believe that money wise and density wise is the best option available at the moment. FUE might work well for rich guys who are not impatient bastards like me. I want some decent coverage as soon and as quickly as possible. In addition to that if you are a norwood 5/6 like I am it would take on average two years to get the job done with FUE (usually two operations are required with FUE in order to achieve pleasing results) Next Year I will start to work as an hotel manager back in Italy so I have twelve months ahead of me to sort things out. I also found your comment on fixing the scar a bit reassuring as 200 grafts doesn't sound a lot to get the scar fixed. One last question. What causes the strecthing/widening of the scar?
