what damage can be done to new hair by exercising??

im 15 days post op and started back yesterday doing weights ensuring i keep good form. from my understanding at this point it is only the donor area that can be affected at this stage and not the transplanted hair??

i was advised to not use sauna or steam room for 4 weeks after surgery.

that clears things up a bit better obviously you can tweak the packing to suit individual choice

thanks ritchie

ok thanks ritcie i taled to surgeon who is confident the result will be as wanted. im sure he will say that .

im a little bit confused over density coverage, i see in another post a patient very unhappy with 3000 grafts coverage from a prominent uk surgeon .

my area covered is only a third of his total area approxiamtely, so by right he should have revieved around 8-9000graftsb to make a significant difference based on socbooks estimation of 5000 grafts needed for myself.

he was never going to get good results

one more thing what is with the discrepancy of surgeons regarding density. surely this is very elementary and all surgeons want to pack in as much grafts as possible .

thanks for the great info guys .

it does make you think , perhaps i will need another procedure however i shall wait until i see the results before i make any judgements

god knows what the first surgeon was thinking with 1000 grafts

ritchie ; i dont think the area is as quite as large as 60 cm2 but i understand exactly what you are saying

im finding this waiting game difficult to tolerate lol

okay guys so you would introduce it then to your routine i guess is what you are saying

what about this new product alpecin?

hi guys , i see lots of you use nizoral in your regular routine

could you please tell me does this stop or slow down hair loss or is it more aimed at controlling dry skin or other related problems

wondering to use it or not, i dont suffer from dry skin or dandruff so my reason for using would be to slow hair loss, (i also take minoxidil)

thanks

wow i had one doc even claim i only needed 1000 grafts

the surgeon did say he put in good density

thanks chrisdav. i hope i do too , perhaps i wont get the result if done by likes of feller or wong (or perhaps iwill) but if it makes a significant improvement to my current condition i will be over the moon

appreciate your feedback chrisdav

i have done lots of research and contacted many members from this site who have had ht carried out by him , all of whom have been very pleased with their results.

i am quietly confident the results should match my positive experience i had with him

i had it done 13 days ago today

the surgeon was dr saifi of poland

would you mind looking at my profile ,im crap with computers chrisdav

i was wondering would you guys mind looking at my pics which i know arent great size wise (im trying to work out how to enlarge)

i recently had 1500 grafts strip method, hopefully you can make out the area done in the pictures,

do yous think that 1500 grafts should give good coverage.

aw i downloaded straight from email which are better quality.

not sure how to enlarge

could you look at my prpfile pics??

it was 2400 pounds

as promised if you check out my profile you shall find pics of my precedure my dr saifi in poland

1500 grafts fut

perhaps some of hyou guys could have a look and tell me what you think, that is if theres anything to be said at this stage??

i had my surgery with dr saifi 12 days ago , please check out my photos in my pictures section as promised.

i was very impressed with how everything went ,lets hope the results match my expectations.

i had 1500 grafts fut

i think they say on there website that they have 14 staff during the procedure. this seems totally over the top .

the fact is in my opinion without wanting to sound sensational they are ripping you off!!!!

i could understand if they were on a different planet when comes to results but this is not the case i dont know how they can justify the fee and why people keep paying the money keeping them in business

ridiculous prices, absurd

very true, i was just so focused on getting procedure done photos were at the bottom of my mind.i do agree thou

were and by whom did you use??

hi rod

i must confess i did not take any pics myself during the procedure but the doc took plenty.

i shall upload them as soon as he forwards them on.

i must say i was one of the cynical ones about him beforehand , i hope my results are as good as i hope

check out his website am med poland

he is fully accredited . operating costs are so much cheaper in poland
