Yeah I wouldn't say I'm looking forward to the next op but last time I didn't sleep the night before on purpose and had about 3 valium when I got there, but I slept through probably 80% of the day and will do the same next time.

Good to hear you are happy with him, I'm over the moon with the work he did on me and will be going back within a few months to get the crown and back area done, I was the first westerner he did the zigzag cut on nearly 3yrs ago, one thing I really need to do is start doing the scalp stretching exercises so he can get a lot more grafts. I've actually grown the previous graft long so I can comb my hair back and cover the new grafts as I have to walk my daughter down the aisle later in the year, nearly reaches my chin lol. Only complaint I had which is really trivial is that the back of my head still feels a little numb after all this time, only notice it if I lean against a wall or lay flat on the floor. I stayed near the night markets and found the town quite interesting and if you haven't done one - go do an elephant, ring neck tribe, tiger, orchid, snake tours, well worth the $40ish dollars and the zoo is really good too and not that far from his surgery, lots of panda's.

I can't give him or his staff enough praise, they washed my hair every day for 10 days then de-scabbed my head, I think all of the girls at the time of my op had been with him for 9yrs, he is a genuinely nice guy, you'll notice most of his clientele are either Australian or Asian, I stayed in CM for 2 weeks then headed up to Fang then Chang Rai after that. When I went back in July of 12 I ended up living in Udon Thani for about 5 months but then after a night of drunken debauchery I had a very small heart attack so need to stay here to make sure everything health wise pans out ok before I go back for any great length of time but so far so good. When I was in the chair I modified his line as he had it too pointy at the top of the M, he happily complied, do what I did and don't sleep the night before, I took a couple of Valium, slept like a baby and probably remember 20min of the whole day

I would 100%, I've let mine go/grow and it's down to my chin now from being pretty short about 11 months ago, I'll probably go back to him in April to get the crown done.

Ah I see the avatar pic now, looks great but I think we should keep him a secret, try using photobucket.

Pics not loading.......... I've been in Thailand for the past 5 1/2 months but keep putting off my next visit/op because I'm too lazy to my scalp stretching exercises

Here's mine after about 12&1/2 months, not brushed but I usually don't bother to, I'm back in Thailand now for a few months and will make an appointment soon to have the crown area done, I just have to get off my arse and do some scalp stretching exercises first. Before Day of op A couple of weeks ago

Yeah mine was probably not related though after 9 1/2 months it's still a little numb around my crown.

I've gotten very dizzy when in the hot sun since the opp (almost instantly) but not sure if it's related, lasted for about 4 months

Looking great and very similar results to mine, I am about 3 weeks behind you and will possibly be getting my second transplant around the same time as you, I e-mailed Dr Pong a few weeks ago asking if I can get in around August but he suggested I wait until around December and do stretching exercises for a few months first. I'll see if I can get in a day or two either way from you and we can hopefully catch up and moan about not being able to have a drink or do any vigorous exercise. I'm going to live in Thailand in about 6 weeks but in Krabi in the south so the lovely lady who I met on the transplant trip had better get her fingers muscled up ready for a bit of head massaging, I want to go in there with a head full of skin like one of those Chinese dogs so he can get a good harvest.

Hence the reason I came in to defend Dr Pong, this guy seems to have some sort of agenda because he supposedly refused to operate on his man friend (post some pics of what you asked him to fix Harari, you obviously have them as you've been posting them to doctors all over the world) maybe he should shut his mouth until he can prove Dr Pong is a bad surgeon, just because someone is not recommended on this or other forums doesn't mean shit, the happy customers are what count and as I've said before, the majority of his customers are Asian and most of the rest Australian who unlike some Americans are rather modest don't feel the need to post something every time they wipe their arse. Therefore Dr Pong is not as well known, mainly because of his customer demographic and personally he has told me he has more than enough qualifications and customers without being on forums like this looking for more.

Thanks Jimmy, that was pretty much bed hair but it's getting to the length I can push it down & flick it across.........Been a long time since that happened, I'll cut it when it reaches my eyes lol.

It's my hair at 9 months after going to Dr Pong..... Harari got annoyed because Dr Pong refused to see his friend who had had a bad transplant by another doctor in the past and I suggested maybe he didn't want to fix another doctors mess....I have no idea why Dr Pong didn't want to do it but Harari got all uppity saying he was very unprofessional if that was the case and I said I didn't care........pretty much what it boils down to.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr Pong, I'll be going back in a few months to have the crown area done.

I've got no idea what his reasons were and personally couldn't give a rats arse, his surgery so he does what he wants to do or doesn't want to do! My care factor.................Zero.
