Hi guys,

Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend. Just few updates regarding the last trial and some other issues.

1. The patient came back for his monthly follow up. He is doing well in general. The hair was quite long so the photos weren't showing the areas clearly but I did take photos and it shows typical FUE healing although I did feel them to be slower than surrounding ones (similar to how they behaved in the first trial). They still looked red and demarcated, while in other areas -where No Verteporfin was injected- they started to look like typical scarred tissue. I have asked him to come back so we can clip the donor again sometime this week or next week. He just has some event he needs to attend prior to shaving it again. I will take more photos when he gets back so I can share them. I think clipped hair will show the areas better. 
 

2. I am invited to present about Verteporfin in the upcoming WFI workshop in May. Hopefully this will spark more interest in further studies with colleagues. 

3. I am considering another trial mostly regarding old FUE scar extraction. 

4. I’m also glad to share that I will be doing consultations and performing surgeries on a regular part- basis at the Westminister Medical Group in Harley street-London. 

Thank you again for all the feedback 

Hey Doc, great update. Please start another trial. The more the better certainly 👍

Knocked it out the park with this one. Very natural looking hairline. Good job 👍

@Gatsby @Berba11 thank u…. I will definitely document my journey and add pictures, hopefully it will help steer other women with the same condition as me to go to a Dr like Dr Ted 😊😊 also on another note I didn’t know Dr Mani Mittal doesn’t do FUT… no wonder I don’t hear back from him. X

Hey, most surgeons don't do FUT as they mostly train in FUE these days (much simpler to learn) FUT requires a lot of training / skill to complete successfully. It's a dying art with most of the newer breed of surgeons who don't learn it. Many years ago before FUE came about it was all that was available! It definitely has its place in the modern day to maximise the available donor hair and for longer hair cases like yours.

I look forward to seeing your photos 👍

Very nice result by H&W!

There's quite a few on the forum recommended surgeons list based in the UK...

Hey man, it's probably easier to list them here if anyone knows the full list 

Hey man, keep on posting the updates 

Hey man, it looks to be growing in well at this stage. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out for you near the 1 year mark 👍

Hey man, there’s still not many on the forum recommended list. Very few in-fact, though this could change 👍

Hey man, this looks like a good job. Keep the photos coming 👍

Hey Melvin, great podcast 👍

Excellent result 

Hey man, things are starting to happen now. The next few months will be interesting! 

Hey man, try not to be too hung on up the grafts numbers. 3500 grafts could well be 7000 hairs with the right extraction. 4500 grafts could also be 7000 hairs depending on which hair types are extracted. Really depends on the skill of the extractor and what they’re aiming for. I’d definitely look into medication - you’d probably be surprised what could grow back after 6-12 months! 

Hey man, the work looks really good!

Im gonna shoot for next week. He seems like a solid guy. It’s great to see new up and comers from the UK. 

Hey Melvin, where do we listen to the podcasts? 

Hey man, I'd a bit a little more conservative and not go super low. Think how you will look in 20 years time

Sorry for the delay. Here are pics sent to me from Dr. Bloxham last week.

Hey man, this is an amazing result. It has really framed your face again 😎

Hey man, keep us posted with the updates certainly! Dr Gabel is one of the best 😎

I keep seeing everyone mentioning Dr Miln from the UK and that they’re going ahead with him. Is it really a case that everyone wants to see testimonials yet no one wants to write them? 😂 Or are the younger crowd all Instagram these day? 😂

Hey man. Where are you based? Temple point reconstruction is tough to get right. Do you have any photos? 

Hey man, great result this. 

Hey man, always look for a surgeon led clinic that lists it’s staff members on the website. You’ll find most clinics don’t / have forever changing staff of varying skill levels. 

Hey man, Dr Pittella is an excellent surgeon if you can go with him 👍

Hello londongirl please also see Dr May (Wimpole ) for an opinion. Definitely avoid FUT. you do not want the scar. Be weary of those promoting FUT.

I assume you have seen a dermatologist and they are unable to help 

Hey man, FUT strip is still a great option for some and arguably more accurate in terms of yield vs transaction from FUE (damaged hairs on extraction) most of the best surgeons worldwide offer it. Though most hair transplant ‘surgeons’ can’t do it as it requires surgical skill and is difficult to learn. Plus there’s no need to shave with an FUT strip as most women & men with long hair don’t want to shave their hair for FUE 👍
