  1. I can't see him going the invasive route. Would interfere too much with his golf!
  2. If anything it is likely a no-shave FUE, with a band of hair shaved and concealed with long hair.
  3. You probably want to try that 'More Plates More Dates' guy on Youtube. He has some videos on the topic
  4. ABHRS you have to apply, sit exam(s), present examples of your work and attend interviews to discuss. Not that many doctors bother to obtain it though. It's not a cast iron guarantee of a quality outcome but at least one valuable indicator of competence.
  5. Dr Steve Edgar (Millbook Surgery) does it (tablets). £200 for 12 months. I don't take it myself though.
  6. I used to think he had one, but on researching I believe it is his use of concealers and sprays which give the impression of a HT. The dark gray around his hairline is some kind of make up artist spray.
  7. A lot of people complain of lost density after 3-4 years. i think this is because intially you get 100% growth, but once everything settles down the hair goes back into its regular shedding phases - typically 15% of all hairs. So you end up with 85% of the initial result.
  8. Speak to them all and visit at least a couple. Donor looks a bit thin, perhaps too thin for FUE.
  9. Looks like yellow blobs. Might be crusting from: ------------------ Serous Drainage Plasma is composed primarily of serum, a fluid consisting mostly of water, and proteins called fibrinogens that work with platelets to help your blood clot. Serum is also known as serous fluid or serous exudate. Serous drainage means that the fluid seeping from a wound is thin and watery with a slightly yellowish hue. There may be crusting around the wound due to the clumping of fibrinogens. Serous drainage typically occurs in the first few days after surgery. It may be accompanied by redness, swelling, and warmth around the incision, which is a normal inflammatory response that helps aid with healing. -------------------
  10. I suspect the Small Claims Court will be the best route. I did a Legal Ombudsman case a few years ago and it was not 'easy' at all. Had to submit a lot of paperwork and supporting information, and it took over a year. Ultimately I failed and they ruled in favour of the law firm. (IMO they gave poor service / lack of advise that cost me £3000 on a property transaction). It was kind of worth it though, as the case shows on the Ombusman's database for 12 months and the firm had to spend a lot of staff time dealing with it.
  11. Nice. Looks like he went quite dense in those areas.
  12. It just means like a picture frame: horizonal being the front hairline and vertical the hair either side of your ears. Without a hairline your forehead has no end point, causing some peoples eyes to wander when they look at you.
  13. It never held back Sean Connery, Jason Statham, Patrick Stewart, and erm....
  14. The early definition in the 90s was around 2000 grafts or above. These days people tend to mean 4000+.
  15. Damn, your donor did really take a hit those first two procedures. On a more positive note your beard looks a close match to head hair.
  16. Comfort Suites did the job for me. You can walk to Pete's Fresh market in 5 minutes which has a lot to offer with a large hot food buffet. The doc will likely see you every day that you're staying for an inspection / clean of grafts. Ubers were very easy to hail even at 6am.
  17. All of mine were a week in advance, possibly the last was 2 weeks. Pay by credit card if it's money you could not afford to lose. There may be a percentage fee however.
  18. You will never know unless you try it. Regrowth is generally quite rare unless someone catches MPB early on. First you've gotta try and stop the rot with meds, then consider a small HT to the hairline.
  19. Oh, sorry about that. Yep, I should have read the post properly. Not familiar with oral minox I'm afraid.
  20. You can make reservations in advance on Cabify. I don't have the App myself but I'd assume it takes the payment out of a linked credit card automatically like Uber does. Post Op you could get the staff to order one, but then you may need some Euros to pay the driver. I would always have some Euros incase the app fails and you just have to wave down a cab.
  21. Never been but apparently 'Cabify' is the app to use for ordering cabs. But at the airport they will be queuing up for business in the designated area, as is standard at airports. They have a subway system linked to the airport so that is another option, but maybe not when immediate post-op.
