mj,
thanks for sharing your progress. your results at the 5 month mark are awesome! the hairliine is great and it will only get better with time. hopefully you will post more pics in a few months.
mj2003, do you have a picture of your hairline before you lost your hair? Do you think if the hairline that Armani gave you is actually lower than what you were born with?
Your 5 month pics are very impressive. I can only imagine what the final result will look like. It seems your are satisfied and should be, your hairline looks great now.
The skills that Dr. Armani possess and the results he gives can change your life.
i m curious if u could shave your head and still look undetectable? make sure you take some pics if u ever decide to give that a try
Great results MJ
Thanks for the pics.
I agree with your statement of youll take is at it comes later on.
Who knows where things will be later on.
The meds will hold you over and even if you need more in the end your donor looks healthy.
I agree with your decision as it was similar to mine.
Awsome results and a well planned out attack on your HL.
Kudos man.
Another check under the Armani belt… the hits just keep on comin…
how have people reacted to your ht?
What changes happened to you in your everyday?
Cheers
MoM
Congrats on the results man! Hairline is looking amazing! Like Dan said, you results should only get better in the next couple of months. Good luck with everything.
Thanks for the comments. Just to clear a misconception, these are not recent photos. They are from the 5month mark. I am now at 9.5 months post-op.
Do you have any updated photo’s for us at all?
Would be great to see how the density has filled in over last the few months which im sure it has etc.
Cheers
Dan
not bad. A Little bit on The agressive side. Any preop showing the front line?

Again with the aggressive…
Let me tell you guys this…
When I did my HT and Dr. Armani drew out the hairline, one of the first questions i asked was how is it that you know where the original HL is (i asked to have my hairline as it was BEFORE my Hair loss).
And he said that a mixture of math and proper inspection of my forhead taht he can actually see the differnce in the color of the skin (if my memory serves me correctly) and pores, skin condition/aging etc …
When he drew it out I said it looks kinda high… are you sure its the original?
And he said yes that he would not encourage anyone to really straw too far from what was orininally there…
Which makes sense…
So my point is this…
Quite a lot of people jump to terms like AGRESSIVE…
Why not start with… IS THAT YOUR ORIGINAL??? because if it is and what the client wants is to go back to the way he looked in his yearbook… technically its not agressive is reversing time…
Unless the good Dr shows the patient what original is and then the patient says ok lower it an inch lol, thats being agressive.
Just me 0.02$
Cheers
MoM

comparing your photos to your original hairline do you feel he was correct when guessing what your original hairline was?
i f*cked up big time. I was convinced by my girl to dye my hair and the only reason why obliged was because I thought maybe a lighter colour will make my hairloss less noticable in my crown. but the lighter colour made it more noticable.
don’t dye ure hair a lighter color if ure thinning guys.
(the was extremely painful via a burning sesation)

Hey MJ2003, maybe Hairsite knows how you can retrieve the photos for posting. Have you tried emailing them?

thanks dude, i figured it out by googling it.
I completely agree with Man of Mystery. When I went to Dr. Armani he did the same thing. He thoroughly looks at your scalp and current hairline which enables him to draw out his design and what he thinks. This “aggresive” stuff in my opinion makes no sense. The hairlines that Dr. Armani designs look completely natural and they are exactly that, a hairline. My first strip procedure with another doctor was ridiculous. He treated me like I was a 50 year old man. He just put some grafts in the center, and i had to comb my hair back. However, it didn’t look natural because the recession was still very apparent. MJ you should be ecstatic! You look great and congrats!
Took these this week. Many people have been commenting on how I look different, and better. I’m seriously loving it.
Looking great MJ!!! I like the hairline design…
How is the crown holding up??

Thanks. The crown is holding up pretty well. I’ll load some pics soon on in my log.

i already had decided on armani a while ago, but your case kinda reassured me since i remember you had been posting way before you actually got your procedure. i’m going to be getting about the same amount of grafts as you to rebuild the hairline and front mid section …i noticed i have similar loss pattern as you, can you post anymore before pics of your hairloss if you still have them whenever you update this post?
looks good though bro…dramatic change most definitely.
