I have researched for almost 3years for hair tranplant ..After consulting multiple doctors i choose Dr radha. Reasons for choosing Dr radha. 1) She does only one surgery per day 2) she involves in most of the part of surgery. 3) I had a very long conversation at the time of the first consulation.(1 hr). Which cleared all my doubts and gave me confidence.(which was not possible with Dr madhu , My consulation with madhu was just for 2-3 minutes and was very hurry hurry) On my day of surgery 27th november: - First thing was a hair wash, The nurse who had my hair washed was beautiful - They too my BP and heart beat. surprising my bp was slightly lower than normal. - Then they changed me into a different dress - Dr radha came in started taking measurement of my scalp and after few changes we agree to a hair line. Actually i don't want to shave my head . But after disscusing with her i agree to shave a bit where the a hair is really thin - I was given vallium and some antibiotics. - I was shifted to that room which looks scary for me (operation theater) - They shave my donor area and counted number of grafts per sq cm . it was 70 per sq cm not bad. - They started giving me anastesia, suddenly my heart beat started to increase just a physcological feeling :) ... - They started taking the donor strip .... it took almost 90 minutes for the whole donor extraction. - They provided me 15 minutes break, i had my lunch in the mean while. - second innings started., she shaved of my very miniature hair . - She started incision on my head .. 650 on my right side and 850 on my left side and 600 on temporals. - Dr Radha her self working on the right temporal and some nurse on the left temporal. - Remaning all grafts where inserted my her nurses. - By 7 pm in the evening it was completed and left for the hotel. - No pain .. slept well that night with out any problem. - Next day went for the hair wash and back to bangalore on the same night. Waiting for the photos from Dr radha. Will upload them once i get them from the Dr radha.

Congrats dude .. mee too had a tranplant with doc radha on 27th of november ..

Hi all , After a long 2 years of thinking .. now i decided i needed a hair tranplant and iam ready for it. i visited dr radha's clinic a month ago.

Heyy RodG, Waiting for you views... Its been more that 10 months , you would have got the results Thanks, Santhosh

btw tuja .. how is your shock loss ??

My room mate has undergone this procedure with dr madhu ... 2 -4 months is the ugly phase in this procedure ...

How is it progressing dude ... you have long wait to go ... i can understand this is the toughest wait

btw how are feeling now .. its almost 5 days now

Thanks for the reply .. I was just curious because iam planning for the surgery in nov first week. How are those surgeons ? .. Iam slightly scared after someone saying on this forum that Dr .madhu is not preforming the procedure by him self and they have face some problems ..

Hey dave56F806, Need some information. Recently i have seen lots of post which says that these days dr madhu is not performing the surgery and he leaves it to the assitant surgeons. Can you please throw some light on these. Thanks, Santhosh

But your shock loss was looking scary

Sorry for deviating the topic .. Spanker ... how is your shock loss after the recent surgery ?

Yes you are right ... But in india i didn't find any good surgeon who can do FUE ... still searching if i can find one .. And cost is too high for FUE its 3 folds higher ....

without shaving the head ... there is a chance of 5-10 % grafts being lost ... didn't understand the funda clearly but ... they charge 20 k more for with out shaving .... Yesterday i met a patient from jordan in Dr.madhu's clinic who opted for without shave ....he has come to the clinic to remove this stiches ... it's really tought to say that he has undergone a transplant

Actually i was thinking of going for hair transplant without shaving the head ... Dr madhu was saying for few months there might be a shock loss(20-40%) of the existing hair for few months ...
