Transplants which include the front, mid and vertex in sibgle session and more than 4000 grafts could take longer than 6 months. Growth starts at 4th month. It's not supposed to end at 6th month especially for megasessions as it takes the body longer to feed and sprout those large amount of grafts.
The thing with these guys that have good results in 6 months is that you don't know if they were using minoxidil along with PRP which would certainly speed things up a lot of doctors have said people even with good results could take nine to 12 months to really see them
the whole point is. Single grafts growing within +- 3 months double grafts growing = 1st hair within 3 months, the second hair comes in aprox 3 months later.. can be much sooner to and so on with triples/quadruples so in 6 months you got the most of the grafts growing, in the next months.. the triples/quadruples are growing in so the result is only getting fuller and more maturing at 12 month mark, all the hairs are in their normal state like the rest on your head
Mohammad Alkordi afer hair transplant usually dr prescribe finesterine for protecting existing hair and slow ur hair loss and 1 ml minoxidil on planted area
Hey man, I am glad for you. I think like people who haven´t experienced much growth during the 4th month will still experience good amount of growth during the 7th month!
@@AtulSingh-zj9hz Did your density improve after the 6th month? I'm at month 7 and only 30% have sprouted according to my surgeon ugh. He said I'll probably have to wait the full 18 months to see my final result.
Would recommend you pay close attention to the growth stage of given area(s) transplanted. You can literally watch the progression from wispy to thickening, and ultimately how long the hair grows before falling out and beginning the growth cycle again. If the transplanted hair seems as though it's stuck in the catogen phase, you know you need to add some more preventative measures to kick it up to the anogen phase. Don't wait until it goes exogenous and ultimately need to revive strands.
Good video thanks. But bro, how do you feel about your hairline? Tbh if my hair transplant result looked like that, i would not be satisfied :(, i think it looks unnatural, maybe there are double-grafts in the beginning of the hairline? i'm curious about your opinion.
Singles are missing in the frontal hair line that´s true, the critics may have a point, however this is definitely not where it ends as I plan to "edit" the frontal hairline during my 2nd HT and get some singles in there as I am satisfied with the density after my 1st HT. Gonna look awesome at the end!
Matt, that is awesome news. I'm happy to see that you acknowledge it and see it as well. I will be following your second transplant up closely too, hope you cover it on your channel. Best of luck!!! 👍👍❤️
Awesome video bro👍 Would you ever be able to do 1 last follow up video on the otoplasty surgery? like how behind your ear looks after the stitches, how does it feel, can you move the ear a lot, etc. It would help me so much as I am looking forward to getting this surgery done!
Hey man, I can move my ears just fine, they feel the same as before, literally 0 problems! knock knock on the wood... I will try to make another one soon but I am quite busy with my life routine so let´s see.
Hi matt, im 9 months post op TODAY , for me 3 to 7 months is when i had the biggest “ transformation” im very happy with mine, and i dont expect to see much difference between now and the year mark, keep up the good work bro, love your videos, helped me so much through the early months
Matt Dominance Hair Transplant Your hair looks great mate, people make shitty comments and they annoy the fuck out of me! Please ignore or block these pricks!
what about those "late bloomers"??? I'm 4 months post op, and I don't see any new tiny sprouts coming up, the density is SO SO.... Do you think I will have any more new hairs coming? Also, how can you tell if you have good blood flow?
Had my 1st transplant around 15 months ago and tbh I don't think anything changed after 6/8 months.... maybe the hair became more conditioned. I'm now 2 months into my second.... I forgot how stressful it all is waiting and wondering if it will satisfy which the first did not due to my Norwood 5/6.. I am doing smp as a density fill, so a long battle and around 9k I'll have defeated this genetic nightmare.
Matt don't be so hard on yourself and all the negative comments. Just think of it this way - you have much more hair in the front now than you did three years ago...it looks fine - we are our biggest critic.
I agree with your video for the most part but I noticed in my case I had most of my graphs placed in the front and quite a bit going into the crown and I am on my 8th month and barely show growth where they went into crown so I’m praying it’s just slow growth and not failed grafts. My front looks pretty good just Waiting for that crown area
Warren Rohr i think crown takes longer i just completed 6 month mark. Front growth is very good but crown is like very slow . Doctor told me tht its takes six months to see growth on crown area. Have to wait 18 mnths for crown area. Between while shampooing do you loose transolanted hair?
prakash abhi no I don’t think I lost any grafts and was very careful and didn’t see any signs of lost transplanted hairs but the growth in hr crown is super slow.
Warren Rohr how many hairs do you loose when you take shower? Like whike shampooing and when you dry your hair! I loose two transolanted hair evey day when i take shower.
some people can have 1-2 hair transplants and some people 5 hair transplants. If you split hair transplant in 5 small sessions of 1500 grafts you can have 4 or 5 of them. Yes hair will regrow
@@bobbysamra9588 You should have some growth but don't panic as some surgeons say 8 months is the time to start worrying if you have no growth.Matt is very knowledgeable but he is not a surgeon,remember that.
No I havent used any minoxidil back then but I started using it now for thickening up my existing hair. I dont think that minoxidil will thicken up your transplanted hair if you will use it 1-2 months after hair transplnat but I think it will make your hair grow faster after hair transplant (transplanted hair as well as native hair). Minoxidil only prolongs the anagen phase and since your transplanted hair fell off because of shock loss, it will naturally go to the anagen phase anyways and it will grow as thick as it can without minoxidil. But minixidil is important for your native hair which is thinning. This hair needs some boost in terms of prolonging its anagen phase because its hair growth cycle was disrupted. I also recommend saw palmetto, biotin (although it wont do much I think) and laser therapy + PRP is advisable. Dont forget about Finasteride which is also there and is effective for blocking DHT as well.
@@letsgethair Hey Matt' I had my hair transplant 7 months ago, frontal hairline, I've let my hair grow since August [thats 5 months] but its only 1 inch long' the fringe won't grow? whats with that??
Hey man you are a superstar to me :) I got my hair transplant done at the Maral Klinik in turkey at 6 months I see a 10 % improvement... really concerned think I am a late grower as I had a previous hair transplant in Pakistan and didn't notice results till 8 months as well.
Check out my video on DHI hair transplant. I think it is a pretty useful method but also brings a lot of marketing with it. It has to be used sparingly by surgeons. If you have thin hair like me you are actually not a very good candidate for it. If a clinic does DHI method it´s a bonus.
Hallo Matt! First of all, I like your videos, but I think you should have added cases like my story. Photos like those you showed aren't always a good example. I had most of my growth between 7 and 18 months!! :) 4100 grafts. Reasons why my transplant looked like a poor result at 6 months were also because my hair was short AND because 4100 isn't enough to cover my baldness. I need at least 8000 so I'll definitely have a 2nd HT and probably a 3rd. I remember how I felt at 6 months. I was devastated hearing stories like "there is no such thing as late growers, best results are seen at 6 months", but people don't take into account there are too many parameters involved determining the final result. I was so frustrated that my mind started playing a lot of nasty tricks and I even got to the point of doubting my surgeon's skill (and trust me they are one of the best clinics in the world!). I felt unsatisfied till 11-12 months. Now it's been 18 months and I am happy to see how far 4100 grafts have taken me. However, HT failures do happen but I believe it comes down to the surgeon skills or non-diagnosed striking health issues.
I read different opinions by surgeons online. Some say Finasteride and Minoxidil give the illusion of speeding up post-op grafts regrowth, because it’s actually the native thinning hair that is getting a bit stronger. Although it makes sense to think Minoxidil would do its part in the speed up process: it stimulates blood vessels and it’s prescribed for telogen effluvium cases (which is basically what a traumatised graft is going through). Finasteride is simply a hormonal pill to block DHT levels, therefore I don’t see how it helps traumatised telogen effluvium grafts to recover faster. I only used some minoxidil from month 10 till month 14. :)
I am right after the 6 months mark , had 4.200 grafts implanted and I feel that my result is not what I expected. Density is not great, hairs are not thick, the overall result is better than my previous condition, but i still believe that it could get better and thicker. I wish my case is not much different than yours!
@@81StrangeFruit When I entered the 8th month I was massively frustrated. The miracle happened between the 9th and the 10th month when the the growth exploded and it got way thicker. At 12-13 it was pretty much done but it continued getting a little better till 15-18 months. I wasn't taking any finasteride or minoxidil back then and these two surely do help to speed up the regrowth.
I’m at 6.5 months now; I saw a rapid growth on 5.5 months to 6 months, now it slowed down again, my hair is getting stronger and less brittle now, If i get 20-25 percent new hair, I would be quite satisfied haha, unfortunately right now my hair behind the hairline looks less dense, but my hair on hairline looks great.
Hey Jing, same happened to me if you take a look at 8.5 month mark for example. THats the time I started to see recession on my top while hairline at the front was really dense. Are you using any prevention?
Matt Dominance Hair Transplant It’s a transplant area - it’s the part 1 cm behind the hairline that is transplanted not so good. (or isn’t as full) I take saw palmetto every other day to reduce side effects.
Hi I hav done my transplant 3 months before. Results r slow then urs. I used minoxidil 2 months and biotin still using But one of my friend told me that u shouldn't stop minoxidil.. Kindly tell me should i restart minoxidil and keep continuing to take the biotin... Also i hav done 3 prp as wl
hey man, thicker and fuller definitely by the 12th month. the density usually stops by the 6th or 7th month and the only thickness and fullness improves.
Bro have you noticed some of the hair falling out? I had a transplant over 1.5 years ago and the base of where my hair grows from is less dense it was a couple of months ago
I understand. It shouldnt be a lot of hair fall though...temporary hair loss is ok because you brush too much or whatever but the hair should regrow very quickly again
Heyy matt ur density on the transplanted area is still the same ryt? Are you loosing density in the transplanted region? And how many months have been till now?
Wow great idea can't wait. I got my hair transplant at Maral Klinik turkey they have lots of reviews but at 6 months I have poor growth fingers crossed all will be OK.
7th month seeing some growth. its not fully matured but yes--a little growth. i am keeping my patience the best i can had my first prp this week. hopefully that would help much better @@AllectTv
@@AllectTv 7th month and new wisps of hair are there It’s not matured yet So keeping my faith Still a lot to go but the growth is there Albeit slow Hoping that there’s more to grow Had my first prp last week
I Got 2 transplantation, and im in month 5 (with my second).. i Can really feal that my front area (hairline) is growing good.. but my question is.. Will it take longer for my hairs in the middle scalp to grow? :-) 1 surgery: 2200-2300 grafts 2 surgery: 3100-3300 grafts Deniz :-)
Hey Deniz, yes. I was talking about it in the video as well. Especially after your 2nd hair transplant the hair takes longer to grow especially on your crown area and top. Matt
Sorry I had to dislike only because your facts aren't right. The google pictures you were going off aren't even legit transplant photos. Its like looking at a picture of a Big Mac - not actual how it looks 50/50 first 6 months and the following 6 months
Hi Matt, I am at month 5 and saw the most growth over the past few weeks. Quick question for you relating to donor area, I have been getting bumpy painful pimples in the donor area. I think it's probably just from ingrown hairs growing through at different angles from the extracted site. Did you have any problems like this? I have been using the essential oils you talked about. I was with my doctor recently and said it's normal from extracting so many grafts. Just needs time. Any suggestions from your research I don't thinks it is an infection.
Hey man, thanks for the comment! How many grafts were extracted again? No I havent experienced any painful stuff on my donor area after 2 weeks. Since you are at the 5 month mark I am wondering what this could be. It is definitely not so normal. Pimples are fine but why painful? They shouldnt be painful.
I disagree, there are lots of good clinics in Turkey in the 4-8k range. I would never pay 20k for a hair transplant even if it would look more natural than a prepubertal hairline of Brad Pitt.
Matt Dominance Hair Transplant That's exactly what I'm saying though. If you go the cheap turkey route, be prepared for unnatural results. You get what you pay for man.
Great video Matt! I’ve heard there is a thing call (regrowz), they did a clinical trial on this product and apparently it has a 100% guarantee with all natural products to increase hair regrow this and prevent hair loss . Do you mind looking into this and maybe doing a review ! Appreciate the feedback!
