Solid result. What is the WAW system? Is it still manual extraction?

Looks amazing. I remember a consult with Erodogan years ago and the clinic wanted to load me up with an insane number of grafts. Almost twice what other European surgeons were willing to do. Was a big red flag for me.

Insane improvement. I cant even see the line. Was SMP used afterwards to further disguise the scar?

Great result and a very unique case. Have always loved Bisanga's suture work in the strip enclosure.

I agree, it has completely flipped now. I couldn't believe how hesitant some Doctor's were about it. Dr Lorzeno really was the one who showed that a clinic can restore high Norwoods using FUE exclusively.

I am very sad to see this. I personally wouldn't attempt anymore surgeries. You have could definitely rock the shaved head look. Any further surgical intervention would be extremely expensive and would have to be in the form of body+beard hair. Even then the density would not be great. There is alot wrong with how this was handled and you have every right to be angry.

Thank you so much.

Superbly natural.

Wow.... So clean. Using a manual punch?

Extremely clean work. Very impressed!

All the best buddy. I don't post much here anymore(have gone back to school and enjoying my time) but I remember how supportive, sympathetic and compassionate you were to me during my hard times. I'll never forget that and I thank you. You did a great job here and you should be very proud.

Multi-hair grafts in the the hairline are often unavoidable due the the nature of 'hairs' within the multi-hair graft being in different cycles. Often one hair in the group will be in the telegen phase(dormant, not-visible, resting) whilst the other two hairs are in the anagen phase(fully visible, growing). The surgeon/tech cannot see the resting hairs within the graft even under powerful microscopes and assume the graft to be a single and elect it for hairline placement. No one will notice.

Hasson and Wong, Konior, Gabel, Shapiro brothers, Bisanga and Feriduni seem to perform the best strip closures from what I have seen. Bisanga's suture work amazes me in particular. I'm sure there are other surgeons that are equally as good.

Looks great buddy. Very happy for you.

I think for alot of people(myself included) we find other interests and hobbies to invest our time into because hair restoration is not something that you can be interested in and craft for years and years like say playing golf, guitar, pottery etc. I think that in general, the interest in hair restoration has a fairly limited and finite life. I certainly don't post much here anymore although I do glance the forum every few days. Not because I dislike the forum(I don't) but because I have other interests now that I enjoy more and are actually tangilble. I noticed even Hariri stopped posting some time ago. However, it does seem strange that whilst it is normal for existing members to leave the forum, that there is not an equivelent(or greater) influx of new members joining as hair transplantation becomes more mainstream. I'm not on Reddit etc so I can't say if that is a factor. I really can't explain that. I don't know the exact numbers of active forum members or if it has declined but it does seem quieter for sure.
