    So after years of research and 7 months of waiting here I am sitting in the hotel Catalonia after undergoing FUE surgery with Dr Bisanga yesterday. I'm 34 years old, work in the City of London and am Norwood 2. Most people reading this will know the drill on surgery day so I won't go into too much detail but I arrived at the bhr clinic at 7.50am, after a consultation with DR Bisanga I had my bloods done. I decided to keep my hair unshaven on top, but as it looks a right mess now I may shave it. I'll wait a week before making that decision as everything is short, red and crusty so it all looks pretty dreadful. The nurse shaves you down and begins the anasthestic jabs in the donor. Here's a little heads up, some of these hurt. Most are ok but 25% of them really hurt. Like a man, I didn't make a sound but I was gripping pretty tight to the chair.

    DR Bisanga then punches the holes, all 1700 of the them. The nurse then does the extraction. It's a long boring process which is pretty uncomfortable at times. I had lunch at 2pm with my wife then the afternoon was spent inplanting the grafts. Dr Bisanga makes the slits for inplantation. Again the anaesthetic Jabs hurt. The nurses plant the hairs with dr Bisanga coming in to check. With me, I needed a further 200 grafts done to fill in an area so the above process started again. I was done at 6.30pm. A pretty long day.

    My my overall experience of the bhr clinic is good, the word that comes to mind the most is professional. They know what they are doing and I felt in good in their hands the whole way through. I am traveling home today on the Eurostar complete with that awful bandana they provide. I look like a pirate, but it's par for the course. I've attached some pre and post op pics and will be updating this blog pretty regularly mainly because these blogs helped me immensely over the last few years.
