Does anyone have any follow ups about their experience with Dr. Rashid? I am thinking about using him for a 700 FUE transplant. This would be my first time. Does he have a lot of experience? How did the transplant work out at the end? Thanks!

Computer99, did you ever hear back on Dr. Rashid....I find it odd that there are so few people who know of him.

Hello there. I am from Houston and just had my FUE procedure with Rashid M Rashid at Mosaic Clinic. Today marks 9 days post op. He suggested 700 grafts and ended up giving me 50 extra during surgery for a total of 750. I just wanted to fill in my receding hairline. He gave me a nice shave that concealed the donor area which you can barely see. Its now growing back fine and back of head looks pretty normal.

 

I originally had a strip method schedule with another local doctor. I then saw a local athlete in Houston who had the strip procedure with a shaved cut and the back of his head looked horrible which convinced me to look into FUE. I visited with Rashid M Rashid and booked my procedure the following weekend.

 

Dr Rashid advised me that the 700 grafts would restore my hairline quite well and that in another 6 months if I wanted more of a touch up and to redo my temples, etc I can easily do a second surgery. My main concern was concealing my donor area because I never wear a shaved or fade hair style. So I went ahead with the 700 and 50 extra free day of surgery. I think the total hairs combined to around 1500-1700 total hairs from 750 grafts.

 

Surgery started early and I arrived at the clinic at 7am. We started at 7:30 and I was fully completed by 10:30 am and I was home by 11am. Dr. Rashid’s staff was excellent and very professional. The facility is nice and clean. Dr. Rashid and his staff were very polite and always asking every couple of minutes if I was ok, how is everything, etc. When I was completed Dr gave me his cell phone number and said to call him over the weekend if I have any concerns or questions.

 

Day of surgery I had very little pain, in fact day 2 I didn’t even take any pain meds because I felt no pain. I believe day 4 is went I started feeling discomfort or or true post op discomfort. Today marks day 9 and I am doing well. Just some itching, and feeling of sun burn to the donor area which people say goes away by day 14.

 

Day 5 I had trouble sleeping due to the procedure and called the doctor for advice. I left a message with his assistant and he called me back promptly and prescribed me some meds. I just want to say that my overall experience at this clinic was outstanding. His prices were extremely favorable and I could not believe what a great deal I received. The surgery was done very quickly, and my recovery was very quick. I was back to work in 72 hours.

 

I do plan on returning in another 6 mos to finish my temples and possibly bring the line down slightly based on how results are coming in. I will ad some pictures later this week and create a profile page.

Hi new2this, I know this is an old feed but I was hoping you could provide an update on your results from Dr. Rashid?
