Michael- Life After Stitches!

December 22nd, 2009 admin

8/15/09- 10 days after the Bosley procedure WOW how much better I slept without the stitches! Still not perfect but much, much better. I started noticing without the pain meds that my scalp is somewhat numb, pretty much everywhere except below the suture area.   This numbness is somewhat expected and according to the folks at Bosley it could last up to 6 months. No pain meds and no pain.  I feel very fortunate that this has been such a pleasant experience. It’s so hard to believe!

The Day After Michael’s Bosley Procedure
The day after my procedure I didn’t sleep very well. I should have taken a full sleeping pill instead of just half. When I woke up I realized that I had rolled off the mountain of pillows that I built to keep me from sleeping on my procedure area, however, I must have realized that I was to be very careful because I woke up with my forehead resting... 
Michael – Looking forward to unveiling his new hairline for old friends
I’m still stuck trying to decide between hairstyles each mornings. It was much simpler when I didn’t have the choice! However, I am so very thrilled with my decision months ago and the opportunity to have Bosley perform this procedure! This has been a great experience in so many ways and every day I am thankful to have regained a bit of my... 
Michael- Losing Hair and Feeling Great!
8/20/09- 20 days after the Bosley procedure Today I started noticing the implanted hair is falling out. The doctor had alerted me that this is normal. Then the follicles lay dormant for a while and will gradually start to regrow within about 3 months, and full results should be effective in 9-12 months. I still have the numbing sensation, but for... 
Michael Finds a New (and Great!) Barber
Two weeks ago I decided it was past time to get my hair trimmed, as it had been approximately 2 months. I went to what I consider my “regular” place only to find that none of the barbers I have had recently were working, so, I took the first available. I did my normal routine of explaining that I had a scar and that I did not want it visible....

Michael Gains Confidence
I am still pleased with my last haircut and the product I purchased, even thought I don’t tend to “style” my hair very often. I am feeling more and more confident every day. Since I looked back at the pictures of 6 months ago I realize that I am looking younger and feel much better about my overall appearance. The hair looks great and I... 
Let it grow!
September 30, 2009 I started noticing in the last few days that very fine hair is starting to grow, specifically in my “receding” area. I am curious to see how fast it starts to fill in. I’ve had no pain or any strange sensations for a while now, other than slight numbness in the crown area. It’s weird, not something I think about unless...

Michael- 5 Days After the Procedure
When I woke up I realized this day was different than the others- no more Vicoden! I switched over to Darvocet for a few days. We all react to different medications in different ways, and this one made me feel a little out of it, but it did the job. I was instructed to wear a hat whenever I was outdoors for more than 10-15 minutes, and since I walk... 
Old friends see the same old Michael
Back from vacation – a MUCH needed break from reality! It was great to see my friends and show off my new hairline! I didn’t get the reaction I was quite hoping for, and I think it’s mostly because they still have this image in their minds of what I looked like many years ago. I did kind of bring it up at one point and my friend that I... 
Mark’s Bosley Progress
November 5, 2009 With each week that passes my head is feeling more normal. Virtually all of the scabs are gone. There’s still a tinge of sensitivity along the donor suture line, but it’s not painful. After the procedure I did notice my scalp looked fuller. Why? Because of the small graphs that had been transplanted and perhaps the dark scabs....
