It really does not look like you are receding at all. I would seriously consider waiting on a HT. In another year or so you might not even be worried about it. With a HT comes possible complications like an unnatural look (that would be worse), the 9 months when the HT is potentially growing in (worse), money spent etc.

Do not rush. You should spend time on this site reviewing the realities of a Hair Transplant. It would be worth your while. Good luck.

I understand the risks and limits of a hair transplant, but I need to restore and actual feminine/female hairline. The receded male one is no good for me at all

Oh, guess I misinterpreted this a bit.

I'm definitely looking into other surgeons now. FUE isn't too important to me, I can do FUT if I must

Oh, then it seems like, a right amount for a good,to high density,good luck!

Were the crown hairs body hair transplant? If so, you probably can't expect them to grow to a normal length. Same that your hairs didn't grow? Is it possible to talk to other patients about it? Perhaps you just got unlucky. Bhatti and other professionals would have their occasional botched operation too, I assume.

I'm obviously not him, he had about 1800 at the front, which seems a normal number.

I'd assume the grafts just died.the reviva site has a number of Indian celebs who got transplants and etc, so I'm honestly more leaning to OP just being really unlucky, rather than going to a scam clinic, though considering the lack of information on this clinic anythings open.

Patient of Dr.Bhatti here aswell 55 Grafts per sq.cm is what Dr.Bhatti always tries to aim for and believes in !

Thanks for the response.

With the size of OPs transplant area I'm hoping I can get away with 1500ish haha

Thank you. The link just wasn't coming up whenever I searched for the clinic

I'm unsure if you know, but what was the density of this hair transplant? Like grafts/cm?

I think it's enough grafts, but I can't tell what kind of hairline you're getting. Could you take a picture with your hair back and the hairline drawn in or something?

I personally wouldn't. I believe at 10 days, there's still a change to damage the grafts.

Someone else here would give better and more experienced answers, though

I've noticed that I can't find the link to his site on google anymore? Did he close down?

Really? So the hair just isn't growing?

Is it possible to get a photograph, I was actually near to booking an appointment with this surgeon, but if the results are bad....

I'm honestly surprised, considering that the clinic seems to have operated on a number of Indian celebrities and etc...

Well, Ive tried emailing him again and the whole no reply thing is happening. I seriously want t g to him for surgery, but not getting a response is disheartening

His profile says yes.

And OP, mind drawing out the area you want fixed?

I am relaxed, it's just that I was planning to get a transplant relatively soon and wanted to make sure I'm not rapidly losing more hair.

If you only want a buzz cut style, you could try that micropigmentation thing for a lot cheaper?

The results looked nice and I'm seriously considering Sohi, especially as I haven't had the no emails issue that others had mentioned.

Looking forward to another update, if any?

Just curious, but is it possible to ask for the density, like grafts per sq.cm?

Thank you if you read this

Thanks for the opinion. While I want to go back to a female hairline and will probably ignore any advice telling me to not get a HT while young, I still want to be sure that my loss has stopped or slowed down enough not to be a worry.

So yeah, if it looks like it hasn't moved then I'll probably get 2000 grafts to bring it forward

About 9 of these months were on finasteride or dutasteride + trans HRT.

I was thinking about a hair transplant, obviously, but should make sure it's still receding fast.

The more grafts the more likely it is for them to not survive and grow I I'm not mistaken, so high numbers if grafts like 60-70 a probably done better over 2 procedures.

That may be why surgeons like bhatti treat 45 as the standard number to reduce the risk of this happening, but it s possible to get a large number of grafts and have them survive

Thanks for the reply, I was just confused.

Like some clinics call 45 grafts a dense packing, while others say it's 60 and up. I'm assuming it's the 60 grafts and up, though.

Another question, I guess.

When a HT doctor claims they did a 'dense pack', just how many grafts is this really?

Ah, so being out in darker harsh lighting would look really thing and balding?

Hardly perfect, but here's an example of my hair.
