Six months ago, I had an FUT hair transplantation procedure performed by Dr. Parsa Mohebi. 3,477 grafts!
Pain during the procedure was very minimal. The medical staff applied a fairly strong sedative, and the local anesthesia was extremely effective. He harvested a strip from the back of my head, about ear to ear right above where a hat would cover. All were placed directly into my scalp, follicle by follicle. Timely, efficient, and I was out of there by 4 PM.
Admittedly, I was in some pretty severe pain the night, but he prescribed some medication to assist. Within a few days, the pain was greatly lessened. Healing was generally event free.
It's six months later, at around the 50-60% mark, and things are looking great. Before and after shots below!

Six months in: I highly recommend Dr. Mohebi...fantastic job, and he seemed to genuinely care about his profession and his patients. Class act, all around.
