Looks good. I consulted with Dr Lupanzula too. I really like him alot. Very humble and personable. Did Dr Lupanzula do all the surgery himself?
Yup he did it all. Only his tech's placed the grafts back in.

I really think you are going to have a great result. Glad you had a great experience with him. I really liked consulting with him. He made me feel very comfortable. I only wish he could prescribe his topical dutasteride without having to see him in person.

Honestly, this is what holds me back from doing a transplant. As much as it sucks to use concealers, I maintain a perfect head of hair illusion with just dermmatch. Fibers did the exact same illusion, but the fear of wind, rain, and having something bump my head was too much. With dermmatch I can literally walk in the rain and feel confident that no one will noticeb I went to a concert and it unexpectedly downpoured for 2 hours and my girlfriend said it still looked natural.
I couldn't go months and months and months without being able to use concealers while waiting for it to finally grow.
On a positive note, it looks like it is finally coming in, but will take at least another 6 months to a year before you see your peak results based on what I've seen from others. Good luck.

not gona lie mate. Its mentally a hard journey. I isolated myself from a lot of social situations for 4 months. Only last week I can now get away with hair fibres.
I am hoping the long term play that I will be look back and think the mental pain way worth the 4 months hiding in a hole.

Yes that's why it's best to do it at start of winter and come back a new man at the end of it the following year.
So much easier to wear a cap in the winter as well.
5.5 Months - Improved a lot but worried about density. You can see my Parting is certainly better than before the hair transplant. Will Density improve?
Attachments
good to know. However the results are great so far. I just hope density kicks in.

Huge improvement so far, another 6 months and you'll be really good. A year from now this nightmare will be a distant memory.
I'm really tempted to do this. I have enough money saved up for a transplant in India plus a full month of hotel + food there. My only problem is that I can really only get away with a month to a month tops being able to isolate. It would also be awkward wearing a hat in my profession. Kinda tempted to do SMP or microblading first and then a transplant, since then I'll still pull off the illusion when shaved down after the transplant.

That sounds long. If you can get it done, then get it done. Its impossible to cover up. Just tell people, as when I started telling more people they were not that bothered and thought it was normal. "soo what, everyone is doing it, whats the big deal" is what I would hear alot.

Yea, it's just that right now everyone thinks I have a perfect head of hair due to concealers. It's to the point where people make comments about how lucky I am to have such thick hair still. My hairline looks matured but not at all receded and my thin spots look thick due to dermmatch magic.
ye trust me is awkward as people would say that about my hair but it was hair fibres. I just said "i got a minor hair transplant on my hairline" but I got shock loss haha and but totally normal and it will all grow back.
