Hi, How much does Doctor Martinick charge per graft? Thanks

Hi, That is a solid result. Gotta be happy with that and your appearance is greatly improved. Cheers Rod

Hi Raulbrammin, The photos that you have posted pre and post operation are not the clearest. If you are really concerned post some better photos. I would also suggest contacting Doctor Radha and discuss with her any concerns that you have. Good luck, Rod

Hi, I guess you already know this bit of advice but you need to find a surgeon that you can trust. I guess the old analogy is 'how does a surgeon make money?' If you live in the US there does appear to be some really good quality hair transplant surgeons. I know that your not happy with your hair but from what I can see in your photographs you have a good head of hair. An issue that you will face is to remove the transplanted hairs and not the native ones. Do you have a strip scar? Cheers Rod

Hi, Firstly, your hair looks really solid at this stage and I suggest most people would have no idea that you are experiencing hairloss. I'm am not sure what you mean by reversing your situation. Do you mean having surgery or laser that removes the grafts that were not placed correctly? Do you have an FUT scar from your previous surgery? Have you considered having a small FUE session? I understand what you mean by chasing your hairloss but unfortunately you're on a merry go round now and it will be difficult to reverse your situation. I wish I could be more helpful. Regards Rod

Hi, You should go back to the photos that you posted at the beginning of this thread and see what you started with. Its my opinion that you've had a pretty good result. You still have a little way to go and your hair will mature over the next few months. Cheers Rod

Hi, Just had a look at your photos and it does look like you've receded a bit. The photos were low resolution and it was a bit difficult to tell how bad your recession is. I've always taken the view that unless your head suits a particular style it isn't a good thing to try and cover up your hairloss. Some guys shave down and get themselves ultra fit and this approach seems to work for them. You could also go to a stylist and get them to offer some suggestions for you. I'm sorry I can't offer any other advice except to say that I'd lost 50% of my hair by 21 years old and as best I could I tried to get on with life. Your a little young to have a hair transplant but this is something that you could consider in the future. Cheers Rod

Hi, http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/166562-hair-transplant-30th-june-2012-dr-radha.html I only saw one photo with your hair very short. It does look like you've had some growth. Your just over 6 months and still have a way to go before deciding how the transplant progressed. Cheers Rod

Hi Dr Bhatti, Thank you for the clarification. Regards Rod

Hi Dr. Bhatti, I have done a bit of research on your website and read the statistics page where it states the quantity of FUE and FUT procedures that your clinic has completed. It also states other procedures which include Flaps- 1, Scalp expansion- 4. Can you provide further information relating to this because its my understanding that these 2 techniques are not considered gold standard procedures anymore. Thanks for your help. Regards Rod

Hi, Doctors Madhu and Radha are recommended HT doctors of HTN. You could start your research with them and decide whether they meet your requirements. Cheers Rod

Hi, No need to be sorry for me. I look great compared with where I started before my first hair transplant. I will wait for 12 months before judging my results. It seems like many of Doctor Radha's patients are having good results. Cheers Rod

Hi, Considering that you are 5 months post operation your right on track. You have only just hit the growth stage and you will experience hair a lot more in the next 12 months. Good luck.

Hi, I don't want to sound pessimistic but if you really are a norwood VI, with progressive hairloss, it is unlikely that you will be able to achieve a full head of hair. Typically a patient only has about 6000 - 8000 donor grafts that can be used with a FUT procedure. If you are considering going to a hair transplant surgeon like Doctor Umar there a some pros and cons which you need to consider. Firstly, the cost of using all of your donor with with an FUT procedure and then combining it with FUE and possibly using other body hair will be very expensive. I would suggest having an in person consult with H & W and Doctor Umar and possibly widen the net a little bit and obtain further opinions. I was a Norwood VI (age 51 years old) and I've had 2 procedures and in total have used about 5750 grafts. My front coverage is still see thru and I have a fairly large thinning bald spot in the crown region. Considering my age I'm fairly happy with my outcome but if I was 27 years old I guess that I would not be content with the result. Good luck with your research. Cheers Rod

Hi Guys, Sorry that I haven't posted in quite some time. I've been waiting to for the full effect of my hair transplant to be ready for me to assess prior to making comments. First up the scar from my donor area is very good and I'm happy with it. If you have a look at my original post you will see that I had probably about 30 - 35 hair follicles in my hair hairline which was a result from my first hair transplant with DHT Clinic ie. Doctor Kulakarn. Doctor Radha transplanted 30 grafts to a depth of about 6 - 7 cms to add density to my first HT. At this stage I am 9.5 months post operation and whilst I have seen some minor improvements in my hairline it is still very see through and the density is disappointing. In my crown region where I had 20 double grafts transplanted it appears to be better and the result is an improvement. I'm not really sure what to say at this stage. I will send some photos thru to Doctor Radha and ellicit her comments. I don't really think I'm prepared to have another procedure at this stage. I'm 51 years old and I've had a decent results, particularly from my first HT with DHT Clinic. Anyway, I'll post some photos in the next few weeks for members to review. I'm totally not into bagging people, I'm not a drama queen who has unrealistic expectations either. Cheers Rod
