Matt, wow. So happy for you. I remember our conversations in private messaging when you were getting ready for this, and comparing our konior consultation experiences. And now you're all done, and had a successful procedure, with amazing results. Wish I pulled the trigger at the same time so we could both be celebrating. Can you break down the cost for everything?

Way to not answer his question.

Woah, very good results at 7months. Hair should get denser as it matured and grows. Your hair line is very well done, especially considering you had none to begin with, overall, awesome, can't imagine better results considering your degree of preop balding, and the number of grafts used. Excellent. Demirsoy has been on my list for a while, and he said similar things about my hair in the email consults ..."ie. unhealthy looking hair, and I should wait until my hairloss stabilizes etc."

I think now would be when things would start to look good? got an update for us? Dr. Doganay, do you know the status of this patient?

Update?

Update?

how are you going to hide that from your co-workers? a hat?

why do we always see the same 3 or 4 patient results from doganay? surely you've had many more patience since with great results?

good early growth for sure. can't wait to see the 1 year mark. did you travel to turkey for the surgery, or are you a local? How long was the procedure? How was pain during and after surgery? did he use choi implanter? manual or auto punch? thanks

matt, its almost been 3 months now, i think? how are things progressing?

how are things going? any updates? Have you been wearing a hat to work? or just walking around with the buzz cut?

If I can be honest, it looks a little pluggy at the hairline. Looks like some multihair grafts were used..... isn't it best to always use single haired follicles in the front?

Matt, wow, this is going to be an incredible result. Your skin looks very healthy and ready promote proper growth. Based on your new photos where most of the grafts have fallen out, would you say those are an accurate photo of your baldness preop? is there some shockloss their? Happy growing....

Any shock loss there? Do you have a preop shaved photo?

Looks so good Matt. Man the suture closure looks so clean and tight...very impressive. You're going to get a great result I can tell. Do you have any pics of the recipient area shaved preop?

I've heard wavy/curly hair isn't optimal for FUE procedures...is this true? If so, why? Thanks

can't really generalize that all pakistani doctors are crap. but, my opinion as to why western doctors are better at aesthetic surgery is that they are trained better, they are more competitive and value their reputation. Pakistani doctors also dont have to worry about lawsuits or complaints like western doctors do. Most innovation in the field of Hair Restoration surgery are western....and most confrences where doctors discuss advancements and techniques are in western countries. when it comes to surgery....seriously....dont take risks like flying to a third world country....you'll end up with third world results.

yeah, that makes sense. however propecia leaves your system in 24 hours. I just started taking it every other day instead of everyday myself. I agree, a little DHT supression is better than none...although thats not based on any scientific studies that I know of did konior do any shampooing of your recipeint area before you left?

What did konior think about you only taking propecia once every 5 days? And want is your reason for doing so?

subscribing to this thread. great logging of the experience and the work looks great. looking forward to seeing the progression of the healing and eventual growth. did the heatwave in chicago effect your comfort at all post op?

Results?

Karachi is the scariest place on earth.

Looking right in track. Your scalp looks like it did preop, which is what it should look like at 3 months.....now the growing shall begin. Your thread is very valuable to patients, keep it going! Thanks

Do you guys actually travel to these overseas clinics to see them for yourselves? KARACHI IS THE SCARIEST PLACE ON EARTH!!!!!!! Why would anyone get a HT there? Oh my god. Is humayouns clinic really in Karachi?? If so. Is the hairrestorationnetwork recommending patients go to Karachi for a hair transplant? I am still baffled at some of the decisions this network makes. While I love this place for its community feel, where real patients and prospective pAtients can interact and share info. However I do not take ANY of the official hairrestorationnetwork doctor recommendations seriously.

It would obviously result is a ugly hair cut...bald sides...and full head of hair on top. But just to humor the possibility. This IS possible technically right? although you might have some tiny dotted scars on the sides of your head right? I think I might prefer to have this kind kind of hairstyle than a horseshoe NW6 pattern.
