  1. Thanks for sharing, what does it look like right now?
  2. Also, many clinics have you sign paperwork that says results are not guaranteed, so this pretty much absolves them.
  3. Why would you put aloe vera on the recipient? Are you sure they didn’t mean the donor? Also, washing twice a day seems excessive at 5 days. I didn’t even wash until a week. Let me tag @Dr. Robert Haber for his input.
  4. Here’s some cases of a men who committed suicide because they were balding. It seems more prevalent in India where shaving isn’t socially acceptable, and balding severely impedes the chances of marriage. https://m.timesofindia.com/city/madurai/techie-commits-suicide-in-madurai-due-to-hair-fall-problem/amp_articleshow/62325039.cms https://keralakaumudi.com/en/news/mobile/news.php?id=940394&u=depressed-over-going-bald-youth-ends-life-in-kozhikode-suicide-note-recovered https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/hyderabad/2020/jan/08/upset-over-premature-balding-civil-servants-son-commits-suicide-in-hyderabad-2086671.amp
  5. Despite all of the red flags you still want to go through with it, something doesn’t compute. You say “they won’t be able to take down my review.” But what does that matter the damage will be done. Have you seen any good independent reviews? Not listed on yelp or google, which anyone can write.
  6. So far no ball pain, I’m gonna switch to the topical dut formula once Xyon releases it in the US. @TorontoMan How’s it going with the topical dut?
  7. Many respected surgeons like Dr. Bisanga recommended it.
  8. Don’t drink alcohol, tea, or ibuprofen before the procedure. Take lots of before pictures, I hope you’ll share your journey here.
  9. Wow this absolutely fantastic. They say the crown is a black hole, but this result says otherwise. How many grafts were used in the crown?
  10. I will be locking this thread until I speak with Dr. Diep, and I will re-open it if and when he decides to respond. I had a long and lengthy discussion with Dr. Diep. It’s been a few days, so I’m not sure if he’s going to respond. At this point, we have removed Dr. Diep from our recommended list. Onwards and upwards,
  11. This was a fair approach to allow the community to decide, without my input, which is already perceived as biased. I laid out all of the threads which included many fantastic results. No matter what we do, we will always be criticized, damned if we do, damned if we don’t. At the very least, everyone here see’s that were truly transparent and open. At the end of the day, we are patient advocates.
  12. This thread was created at the end of the day on Friday. I am not going to contact the physician over the weekend. I will contact him today, as I have already stated.
  13. I have not contacted the physician yet. I will give him the chance to respond publicly, but in my opinion, it will do little to change minds that are already made up. Again, it was never my intention to hurt anyone’s reputation. That was never the purpose of this thread. In this particular case, given he has so many successful procedures and happy patients on the forum. I thought the fair and balanced approach would be to allow the community to decide.
  14. I think this is being sensational. Ibuprofen kills thousands each year, and not from a small chance of cancer. https://kindredmedia.org/2013/06/ibuprofen-kills-thousands-each-year-so-what-is-the-alternative/
  15. @Oxiborick Do not get any repairs preemptively. Give it at least 10 months before getting a repair. You really don’t know how it’s going to look, only time will tell.
  16. I’m gonna be honest, these results are okay, by no means fantastic or cuotesque. You already had A LOT of miniaturized hair pre-op. This is the only before picture that matches length and hair style. For having that many grafts in this area, I’m not impressed. You started medication a few months before this procedure, it’s clear you’ve had regrowth in the crown by the picture below. This means a lot of the density you’re seeing is due to your native hair thickening and some regrowth from medication, which makes these results less impressive. That means it took 4k grafts for this area. Which again, had A LOT of hair to begin with. You’re happy so thats all that matters.
  17. This guy is a troll, sukh123. I was already speaking to Pat before that thread was created. I wanted to speak to the last patient in detail before making our decision. That was on Wednesday, the Reddit mod created the thread on Friday.
