Hi All,
I finally had my FUT procedure done by Dr. Arocha today. Let me first say that the doctor & his staff (Graig, Maria, & Myra) are excellent. Let me outline what I did that day:
First, I meet with a nice lady at the front desk to take care of my financial matters. Kira is also nice but she wasn't in that day.
Second, the doctor & Graig took pre-op pics of my hair & discussed what areas to tackle first, in my case, the hairline, temporal, & mid-scalp areas. Also, I discussed the donor area & how big it might be.
Third, the procedure started by taking a few meds for relaxation & pain and a prick of a needle for numbness for the donor area. Honestly, I felt the prick from the needle but besides that no pain. The cutting of the donor area & the insertion of the grafts were painless.
Overall, I had a good time talking to the doctor & his staff plus the BBQ lunch was great. So if you are an African American I would highly recommend Dr. Arocha for a consultation to discuss yr hair loss problem.
