  1. Finally I had my surgery on Friday(day before yesterday) by mastero - DR. VICTOR HASSON. Thursday evening I met Dr.Hasson and Joe, and they spent more than an hour with me to discuss about my questions and procedure. Surgery started at 7.30 am on Friday. I asked doctor to buzz my head all the way. I requested Dr.Hasson to go for as much less scar as possible and he had done really great work with the scar. I am very much pleased with my scar. As a typical patient I was worried about the scar, but Dr.Hasson did a very good job. My brother accompanied with me. Doctor explained us each and every step in very detail. I have never seen a doctor, who has this much of patience and who engages patients with his process/steps and humor. After removal of strip, doctor gave us a small break. Doctor and his staff started cutting grafts. After break, doctor started making incisions on my scalp. He made first 2500 incisions(he made me count with his counting device). Had a nice lunch break, after that his staff started grafting grafts. Staff was very co-operative, they had been offering me fruit juices, movies to watch. Around 2 or 2.30 pm doctor made 2000 incisions. He also grafted few grafts and then his staff took over. I had few breaks in this process. Around 4pm Dr.Hasson made his last 1000 incisions. So the total is 5400 grafts. I was scheduled for 4000 grafts and doctor gave me 5400 grafts. He gave me full coverage till my crown. That was really mind blowing, I am really so thankful to Dr.Hasson. Dr.Hasson really wants to give the maximum coverage to his patients. I got 1400 extra grafts with out any extra charge. It is very kind of Dr.Hasson. I had a dinner a break around 7pm. And my surgery was finished at 9pm. I think I have been on this network for 4 or 5 years, and have been waiting to pick a right doctor. I always knew that if I pick a right doctor, my HT journey would have a great ending. My dream has come true. Now is the tough part, waiting... but I think I can handle this part too because I not only gained grafts but enormous confidence from Dr.Hasson and his staff support. You can see my pictures, and can see his incredible work. Kudos to Dr.Hasson and his staff. Last but not least, Thanks for all your support - "HAIR TRANSPLANT NETWORK" - Kumar

  3. Three more days to surgery. I am not tensed but thinking too much about scar. I don't care about pain part. I am pretty good in handling pain. But am little worried about the scar. I don't want a long scar which goes till temples. Ofcourse I am going for 4000 grafts, I am not sure how I can avoid it? I know once I grow hair scar it wont be visible, but looking at recent FUE results I am kind of feeling like that I am rushing in for FUT. I am sure DR.Hasson will take care of everything, but you know as a typical HT patient I am worried about cliche things. So here are my questions, please answer for me. 1. what are your preferences about scar? do you guys care if it goes all the way to temples? 2. What are the options to get rid of the scar left after surgery? like is there any cosmetic surgery to get rid of it? or doing a FUE on scar ? Thanks much for your help, I am almost there. Kumar
  4. I finally decided to have a HT with DR.Hasson in June last week. I am planing to have 4000+ grafts. Started using Propecia 3 weeks before. Please send me all your suggestions & wishes :-)
  5. Thanks guys for your feed back. Yes I am kind of silent type But I have been participating in recent live chats. I am 35 years old. Yes, I will visit H&W for consultation. I am planing it. Are there anyone from Portland or seattle area(on this forum), who had HT? I would love to meet.
  6. One more pic of rear view. I think I have pretty good donar area. Kumar
  7. Here I am posting my photos for first time, I have been considering HT for long time but have not taken any step so far. I have not used any medication so far. I participated in some chat sessions, some of you suggested me to post photos. Here are some photos. I have been on this forum for long time, more than 3 years I think. I did learn lot of things here. I still need to learn a lot. I need your suggestions. I live in Portland, Oregon. But location does not matter to me, I can fly anywhere for consultation or treatment. I am looking for an ethical, honest and natural HT, My goal is most artistic & natural HT. I am looking for long term goals. Any input from you is really appreciated. Thanks much in advance. KUMAR

  9. Pat, Thank you very much for your suggestions. I will see them. I may not be able to travel to B.C because of my visa status. But I am willing to travel anywhere in US. Thanks a bunch!
  10. I live in Portland, Oregon. One of the local dematolgists recommended Dr.Dow Stough in Arkansas. Do anyone have any information about Dr. Dow stough? Please let me know. I never had a transplantion. I am planing my first one. I dont mind travelling anywhere in US. Its a cliche, but I want to go to best doctor who cares about his patients. I am having a hard time to find a one, any help is appreciated.
