    • New York but I have done work in turkey and Mexico (can’t afford New York drs) 
    • I do take finasteride, albeit at a very low dose. I have a HT journey thread on here, though I’m not sure how useful it will be for you!
    • @Berba11 and  you don’t take any finasteride? Could you a share a pic of your hair if possible? Thank You!
    • Don’t know how good Xyon is. I do know it’s expensive! Most people will have a minimum of two HT’s. This forum is littered with people who have had multiple surgeries. I’ve had two and will likely have a third within the next two years. 
    • Ok, so it's time to plant some hair. I've been stalking reviews here since 2012. It was about that time when I realized that Saw Palmetto wasn't enough to fix my hair loss and that I needed a bit more of a proactive solution. At the time I didn't know anything about the process so I did as much reading on the subject of transplants as possible. Part of me wanted to do something right away but fear of a bad result or worsening hair loss kept me from moving forward at that time. I decided to wait and see how things progressed to see if a HT was right for me. Also it's kinda expensive so I needed to save up some money. This was all really good though because I would check in on this forum every few months and see what was happening. During that time I started finasteride and it seemed to completely halt all hair loss. I took photos before hand and things seem the exact same now seven years later. Looking back I wish I had started sooner but I was worried about side affects. Overall the waiting and researching has, I think, given me realistic expectation. I made a deal with myself not to move forward with a HT until I was no longer insecure about hair loss. That finally happened and I can confidently move forward with this. I'm doing this now for myself in part but also for my career. Whether it's right or wrong people do judge you for how you look, and if having hair helps me close a big deal with a client then It will pay for itself quickly.  The reason I'm making my own experience review is because I've benefitted so much from the reviews of others. I've followed along with hundreds of people through this forum and I would never have trusted the process enough to go through with something like this without seeing the results of many of you. FYI I don't intent to peace out after four months. I'm a private person so I don't really enjoy posting personal things, but nevertheless, I'm planning on posting my results consistently for a year minimum. I think its something I owe to those who are doing their own research.  I chose Eugenix for a few reasons. I had looked into a few other Drs. that were endorsed by this network but ultimately the cost and communication weren't quite what I needed. I was recommended by one Dr. to only go for a strip surgery and do FUE later which was something I wasn't quite ready to do. Eugenix has been really good with communication and they didn't charge me for a consult with a Dr. which is helpful. As far as results go, from what I can tell, many of the Drs. approved here are quite comparable.  I've seen some say it's difficult to go to India for something like this etc. I've traveled quite a bit so coming here didn't seem like a big deal. It's not my first time here and I like to get out and experience new places. I no more than walked through the Duty Free area at the airport than someone called out my name and took me straight to a car and the hotel. So even for someone that's never traveled internationally it would be easy. That being said I spent around a year traveling Asia by bus and motorbike so non of this feels foreign to me. The issue I've had was the trip here which was bumpy so I wasn't able to get much sleep. I'd rather not go into this sleep deprived but oh well.  So surgery is scheduled for tomorrow so I'll post some preop photos I took here in the hotel.
