Yes you're right. But i know i will have a second hair transplant for the crown.

I have a lot of body hairs if i need to and i hope that replicell and company..... will help one day to add density.... let's cross fingers.

But that's exactly what i wanted so i did it !

I wanted more grafts but actually density was not so great. But this is a good number after all....

I cannot recommend her at a 100% since i will have to wait at least another 6 months to check the results. But d?finitely, i had a great experience so far .

I had a few pimples and hairs appear to grow little by little. I'm only at the beginnig of the road and waiting is the hardest part. But i'm confident and i know it's for the best.

I will post pics in a couple of weeks so you will see the results at 3 months post op.

Tks for sharing your oppinion

I don't know what to think.

Actually, it seems that everything is happening fast. (too fast ?)

No more scab after one week...

The stiches were supposed to be absorbed between 3 and 6 weeks. I lost all of them only 2 weeks after HT:confused:

I already lost a lot of hairs (at least 70%) and i hope this is not a bad news. Is it too early ?

I can feel some pain on the recipient area when i touch it. Is that normal ? Furthermore, it's like it's still on anesthesia....a bit concerned about that.

My scar is still quite red. i cannot feel it at all except 3 cm ( maybe 1mm on surface)

I hope everything is normal. I know waiting is the hardest part...

More pics on my blog:rolleyes:

Thanks for your help and sorry for my english (very tired tonight)

I 've created a new blog so it will be easier and quicker to check the results :

To be honest, since it was my first HT, i didn't do scalp laxity exercises.

But 3650 is not a bad number at all...i only hoped to have 4000 or more...

i think the piece of skin she took was large enough to achieve 4000 grafts with a better density.

Unfortunately, i didn't have good density (let alone triple or quads ... )

But if i can achieve the same amount of grafts for my second hair transplant (next year ??) with scalp exercises, i would be very happy !!!

Again, a few pics dated from the HT day (i was quite bored).

Some of them have been taken without permission

But as i know there is no offense i post them...

Yes , i'm pretty sure that Propecia could help. But i really want to stop it. I don't want to take that risk at my age.

The first sutures were removed the fifth day after the HT. And the others are absorable suture ( will take about 3 weeks after HT to be absorbed if i'm right)

She charges 50 indian roupies per grafts which is very cheap compared to the price in western countries (europe, US ...). I don't know if it's still the same amount.

I don't mind telling you how much i paid but as i did contact Dr Radha last year and she was not recommended by this forum and very few pics were available at this time, i had a small discount. ( We fixed the price in january...)

It was also besause it was quite a big amount of grafts. Let just say it's between 2000 and 2600 € with 10 months supply of androanagen.

You cannot find cheaper for the class of work she does. But actually i need to wait another ten months to really tell you if it worth it...or not.

I guess we can remove about 6000 grafts with FUT (and maybe more). So yes i will have the opportunity to do it again in 10 month, when scalp laxity will be restored. I think my scalp laxity is good and that should'nt be the problem. I don't know the size exactly of the strip but i know it was quite big. Unfortunately, poor density did'nt help me to achieve the amount that i was planning.

Hope this help !

Tks

Actually i decided bymyself to stop finasteride (propecia). I told her i wanted to stop it. I took it during 8 months. I didn't notice a big change and i don't want to take the risk to have its side effects. I'm only 28 and this could affect me for the rest of my life... no way !!!

So now i take Androanagen. Dr radha prescribes me that dietary supplement and she told me that it has no side effect reported.

But i'm not an expert, so if anyone could help me to understand exactly what it is, that would be great. (pic attached)

Well,

As promised i 'm updating my experience.

I'm back to France so it's easier to update pics and write on my keyboard.

I can make it long but i will try to keep it short. (i know you're only interested by pics )

If you are on a hurry just go to my blog => http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=2561

I was on hollidays in the north of india and Nepal before HT.

I went to Vizag on the 25th of september. I met Dr Radha on the 26th for one hour. We planned together the surgery.

Dr radha and her team are very nice and professional.

I had a long day at the clinic (9 am 8 pm)

I had to go back to the clinic on the 28th for first checking and shampoo.

Suture removal on the 2nd of october and last post op explanations.

Actually i was scared about doing my HT in India. Price was one my motivation.

I was supposed to do it in april http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/165102-fht-dr-radha.html but because of work issues i had to postpone it http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/167458-fht-dr-radha-4000-grafts-coming.html.

She said i was almost a norwood 7. But i think i more on my way to be a norwood 6 right now.

I was hopping 4000 grafts at least but i had only 3650 grafts done. Scalp laxity was good but my density was only 70-75 hairs (per cm square i suppose)

The count : I don't remmenber exactly so it may be not exactly right

single: 1250

double : 2350

triple : 50 (bad news...)

I insisted to do the tamples and to have a good density on the front and not to have a too high hairline. That's why she could not go as far as planned before.

So the bad news : poor density (70-75), very few triple hairs. 3650 grafts (was expecting more than 4000)

The good news : Dr radha and her team were great, no pain, good scar, good work, and First HT done. No more finasteride ( i want to stop it !)

So now i'm fine and i shaved my hairs. I have scabs and i don't really know if i have to remove it or not. (so any advice would be a lot appr?ciated).

I'm not an expert in FUT, i'm french (sorry for my mistakes) and this was my first HT. I choosed dr Radha before recommandation on this forum and i'm very happy with my choice till now.

But to be honest, the only thing that matters to me is the result.. So now i have to be patient. I cannot recommend at a 100% Dr Radha until 8 months.

But definitely, i really appreciated my HT experience so far and i'm looking forward to see my hairs growing.

Fortune hotel in Vizag is expensive but is great by the way !

i've updated my blog for all the pics. Just have a look at my signature.

I will post the today's pics !!!

Dr radha did'nt send me the pics she took before and after the surgery. I will post it as soon i will have it.

Any coments would be a lot appreciated.

Oooo !!!! thank you for your answers. I have to admit i'm pretty excitted...

@newguyintown => so happy for you... it's a very nice job !! Congrats !

I hope to have as many grafts as possible. I'm not sure if my scalp laxity is good...

4000 would be amazing but i 'm trying not to raise many hopes.

As promised, here are a few pics from today ....

I'm leaving this thursday and willl meet Dr Radha on the 25th (FHT planned for the 27th) and i'm not sure if i will have access to internet.

If so, i will count my experience and will try to post pics. If not, i will do it later...

But don't worry i will keep posting !!!

Thank you all for your advices and encouragement...

@KO Thanks. I will describe everything, don't worry. (with tone of pics!)

@jayukdht i will start my scalp exercises today !!!

Hi everybody,

I'm posting a new thread to inform you that i will have a FHT with Dr Radha on september, 27th in India...for sure !!!

Actually i was supposed to have my FHT in April but because of work issues, i had to postpone it.

Now my flight is booked, visa is done, money for the surgery has been tranfered, and i'm leaving on the 13th to take some hollidays before the D-day.

I'm norwood 5 and i'28. To know more about what were my plans, just go to my last thread

http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/165102-fht-dr-radha.html and read it.

I would like to transpant 4000 grafts and i hope my donor area will permit it.

I will post a few pics of my head in a few days . Thus you will see my baldness before and after the surgery. I will also tell you all about my trip and experience. I hope everything is gonna be ok.

Wish me luck

And if you have any advices before doing a FHT, i'm a BIG listenner...

Thank you

(And Sorry for my mistakes, i'm french...)

Sorry for replying late. I didn't receive the notification.

I Will do it in september (work issues before). For sure i will post a lot of pics and tell you everything about my trip and experience.

Just to keep you inform, i will have a FHT, 4000 grafts with Dr Radha. I'm a bit worried about travelling in India for that but i know everything is going to be ok... and even more !

I'm sorry but i have not done my FHT yet.... my boss didn't let me go and postponed my hollidays.

I 'm planning to do it after summer (for sure). I keep loosing my hair and i cannot bear it anymore...

I will have my FHT (or FUE) with Dr Radha. There is no doubt about it.

I will keep you inform about everything but for now, i just need to wait... such a long wait !

Thank you.

I think my density is good. Does retrograde means alopecia on the crown ? If so, i will have retrograde alopecia, for sure.

I think i will be a NW6 in a few years.. !

So if i'm right and if my donor area permits it (i hope to be on the lucky guys' part ), i can have one hair transplant of 4K grafts now and another one of 4K grafts in a couple of year... and Hair transplant will be over... i need to plan what i want and i think it would be a good compromise ...

Thank you

Thanks for the answer

Or on the thread i 've started => http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/165102-fht-dr-radha.html

Thanks again !

I'm wondering how many grafts can be taken from the donor area ?

And also how many grafts do we need to restore all hairs of a norwood 5 or 6 ?

I'm considering having an FHT of 4K grafts and i'd like to know how many hairs (grafts) will still be available...

I know there is not a perfect answer but an average will be more than ok !

So ?

Thanks

RS 50 per graft. If quality and results are good, it's a bargain.

I don't know her yet but she answered to all my emails and she looks serious... I hope to be happy with my future 1st Fht

Thanks for your answer.

I have no side effects using minoxidil ( i've been using it for the last 3 years). But my concern was about finasteride and its erectil dysfunction, fertility ... No side effect till then but i've been taking it for only a week.

I did my homework and i know Dr Madhu and a lot of Doc of the coalition. Dr Radha is a lot cheaper and has worked with Dr Path for 18 months. She looks serious but obviously more feedbacks are more than welcome !!!

I will go to india especially for the surgery (and a few days of vacations...)

I know it can sound stupid but i just want my hairs back. But i also know that 's impossible. So i want to restore as many hairs as possible . I don't want to look bald again.

But i 'm aware that i will loose more hairs in the future so i know i will need a second hair tranplant.

My plan is to have a mega session of FHT si I can forget for a few years this problem . And then we'll see...

I suppose 4000 grafts would be a great number but i'm not sure ...:confused:

Hi everyone. It has been a while i was following you but this is my first comment.

I've decided to have my first FHT with Dr Radah. We have not fixed a date yet but it should be at the beginning of April. I've started my own thread here => http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/165102-fht-dr-radha.html

Your comments have helped me to choose the doctor so thnak you. I hope i will not regret it. But i'm confident and i know it will be for the best . I will keep all of you informed about everything. I can't wait doing it....

UPDATED *

Thanks for your answer Dutch !

Yes i understand FUE is not for me. I was thinking that before...

I'm not sure i'm Norwood 6 (not yet ?). I will upload different pics tomorrow so that you can have a better look...

I know that it's a lot of money, that's why i want to do it in india. Apparently, Dr Radha has shown good results so far. Maybe someone can confirm it ?

I've decided 4000 grafts but i'm not sure what i really need. It's pretty difficult because my hair loss has not finished yet.

As i cannot see the doc, i don't know exactly what i need.
