  1. Younggun,

     

    Go a bit deeper and find out each specific surgeons transection rates and compare actual results of similar patients. You don't want to pay the lowest rate, but you don't want to pay the absolute highest either.

     

    Cost of living, experience with FUE, technology in instrumentation, and staffing expense are deciding factors. Quality is the results in the recipient and donor areas.

    You have to maintain your existing non-transplanted hair and your donor area resources. You must commit to a treatment plan of that may include medical therapy. This condition of hair loss is progressive, so you must treat it as such. The surgeon should transplant as if you will expect to see some degree of additional hair loss. You really want to look natural at any point on the hair loss journey. Any pre-operative donor area photos available?

  3. Sorry for you troubles, London81. I don't know of any good dermatologists in London.

     

    The sensations you are describing seem much like you may have seborreic dermatitis, which can cause you to fell tingling, sharp painful sensations when not adequately treated.

     

    I wish I could say with certainty that it is as a result of nerve trauma, but FUE is typically a shallow surgery. The depth of a good FUE surgeon's extraction avoids the subcutaneous region.

     

    Have you tried any prescription strength hydrocortisone topicals by chance? Triamcinolone could reduce the discomfort, but you may need to discontinue some of the shampoos and other current hair products until you can isolate this issue.

     

    I hope you can find some relief.

  4. Everyday Dr. Patrick Mwamba performs multiple donor area preparations methods for patients whom all have different needs. A large population of patients desire undetectability and expedited social reinsertion. Here are some examples for your viewing.

    In the example below, you may observe the typical FUE donor area preparation method of most FUE clinics around the world.

  5. Im trying to find the best surgeon to remove my old scar its the shape of a smiley face.

    The surgeon that did it did not use the tricopytic closure method and its lumpy and i feel like its widening.

     

    @Densityrus

    Posting details (length, width, and color) of the scar would be very helpful.

     

    The removal of a scar by revision isn't effective for most average strip scars. There will always be a linear scar if you remove a strip scar by performing another strip surgery. Your scar needs to be seen by an expert, otherwise you will end up with the same result. Strip scars always widen after time. If you want a pencil-thin scar, you need to pursue other options.

     

    Scar removal is an option, but results are unpredictable due to the limited blood flow. You may need non-surgical multiple treatments to deal will the hypertrophic scar that you have, so surgery (FUE scar grafting or FUT revision) may not be the best option for you at this time.

  6. I tried rogaine once but stopped cause it seemed to be melting my hairline much faster than i would like. Does the majority of users really benefit from rogaine? thanks

     

     

    Rogaine (minoxidil) may have been actually working for you. How long was your Rogaine (minoxidil) trial? The best thing to do, at this point as a NW3 is to pursue a regimen. There are many different kinds of treatments that you can administer to combat all of the effects that you are seeing.

  8. Hi WHTC,

     

    I am having my Procedure with Dr Feriduni who had suggested 1500-1700 grafts to reconstruct the hairline. He estimates I have 6500 FU grafts in total. The plan is to stay on Medication which for the past 7 years has pretty much kept my hair the way it was and top up with future FUE in the future. I could have had a HT a couple of years ago but I wanted to see how things went and the progression of any more loss. I will be 33 this year.

     

    London81. Where are things going for you these days?

  9. Do you know your density on the front and donor area, Mosd? I see no reason to touch the front, but you'd be able to do the temples with 300 to 400 grafts. Your hair is slightly wavy so you'll save donor resources, and you should gain a huge effect in coverage value. Your commitment to the medication is the most important aspect of doing any surgery.
