Hi Folks,


I sincerely appreciate & thanks HairRestorationNetwork for all the guidance & support. The best feeling in the world is knowing that you finally took a step in the right direction, a step towards a better future.


I am excited, positive & hoping for this best after this procedure.


BIG thanks to all the fellow members for their support & help especially Matt1978, Spanker, Janna & Hariri.


I just reached hotel after a mega session with Dr Ron Shapiro.


After almost 1 year of extensive reseach I decided to go ahead with Dr Ron Shapiro of SMG.


Matt Zupan was great during the consultation & answered all my questions.


We planned for 4500 grafts via FUT however we were able to just extract 4040 for this session. I was little disappointed with this. However I really hope 4040 grafts will give me solid base & the transformation I am looking towards.


I drove from Chicago to Bloomington MN for the procedure (that's where SMG is located).


I reached at 8 AM local time. They started taking my pre op pics. After that I spent around 30 mins with Dr Ron Shapiro to discuss the action plan. After taking to him I was pretty certain that I am in safe hands.


Right after session with Dr. Shapiro, the staff immediately came into action as this was a mega session.


They took my blood pressure & then strip was extracted. I had to lay down on my stomach for about 30 mins during this procedure.


Once the strip was extracted I saw technicians working towards grafts extraction.


Then doc Spairo started incursions. e created the hairline which was discussed during the acton plan.


PICS are coming soon. I PROMISE.


I just wanted to start this blog just track down the progress of my HT. I will write my experince in detail soon.


Right now I am too tired after that mega procedure.


Many thanks to Dr Shapiro & the staff for taking caring of everything so professionally & nicely. I appreciate it from bottom of my heart.



Thanks

Hi Sunny - I had a 3988 graft FUT session with Dr. Ron's brother, Dr. Paul, on 10/17/2014. Feel free to read my posts and also let me know how you are doing. I also drove to SMG from the Chicago area for my procedure, as I read and heard so many good things about the Shapiros and the staff at SMG after literally years of research and considering a procedure. I was in the chair for 11+ hours on a Friday (finished past 8:00 pm!), and I was thrilled at their commitment and professionalism.

 

Now the long waiting period begins, but I am healing well and that is a good step 1. I hope you are healing well also.

 

Take care.
