    I Choose this doctor based on following criteria-

     

    1. Past Results

    2. Feedback from Older Patients

    3. Qualification of the Doctor (He is a Plastic Surgeon)

    4. Proximity to my location

    5. Cost

     

    Its Costed me roughly $1600 for 3000 Grafts. (INR 35/Graft)

     

    Looking forward to the results now.

  2. Hi Guys,

     

    I was looking for a doctor from Past July. I met couple of Doctors in Mumbai & 2 Doctors in My City in Pune. After some extensive research i choose to get my treatment done from Dr Prashant Yadav.

     

    So, i planned for the treatment on 1st Jan 2015 [i thought this is the best way i can start my year].

     

    Reached the Clinic at 8 am. A nurse got me dressed in the clinics dress.

     

    After that Doctor took picture of me & than shaved off my head & Marked hairline which we discussed.

     

    The procedure started at approx. 9am & it took him about 2:30 or 3 hours to take 3000 Grafts. Dr Prashant removed all the grafts himself & their were 3-4 nurses assisting him.

     

    I got my first break at around 12pm. I took some tea & biscuits

     

    Till this point the entire procedure was virtually painless for me.

     

    After this they started implanting the grafts &constructing my hairline. Implantation of the grafts was done by his team under his supervision.

     

    My skin was extremely sensitive & hence i required a bit more of anesthesia than usual. This caused a bit of pain during implantation stage.

     

    I got my second break in lunch hours & clinic arrange the same for me.

     

    After lunch my procedure lasted till 6:30 with a break at 4:30pm.

     

    I m attaching my before & after Treatment pictures. Really excited. Looking forward to the result.

  3. Hi Everyone

     

    This is my first post and i joined the website because i plan to travel India in January 2015 and i am considering having FUT surgery for a second time for hair loss.

     

    I'm from the UK, make, 37 years old and had my first surgery in the UK at Transform in Manchester. At the time it was very new to me and now realise i paid a hell of a lot which would have paid for 2 or 3 full treatments abroad. Anyway, i know now hence this post.

     

    My first treatment was approx 3300 grafts and the results are good but that was 3 years ago and the hair i had at that time now seems to have gone and though im 75% happy that remaining 25% has got me online to find out about having the 2nd surgery done in India and hopefully finish the job.

     

    I would like to know of anyone's experience of having it done in India and who you recommend. I can travel anywhere in India but arrive in Mumbai so would like a consultation there but would like to have a heads up to book an appointment before i arrive and possibly take some photo's and email them over. I also plan to travel to Delhi later too so there would be fine too.

     

    So if anyone has any recommendations and idea of cost/graft then i'd appreciate it,

     

    Thanks, Wix

     

     

    Is their any particular reason as to why are you considering only FUT & not FUE.

     

    I believe Dr Radha is very good for FUT based in Southern Part of India. You will find many reviews from her patients in this forum.

     

    Best of Luck.

  4. So, i finally took the decision. Spoke with few of the earlier patients of Dr Prashant & got my treatment done on 1st Jan 2015.

     

    I had a bit sensitive skin & hence required a bit more anesthesia for my procedure as a result my head is a bit swollen. I would post my pictures in a day or two.

     

    I got 3000 Grafts implanted.

     

    Over all experience was very good. Will just have to wait for the results now.

     

    Keeping my fingers crossed.

  5. Hello guys,

     

    I had my HT on 15th Nov(Saturday) as planned. Finally, I opted for FUE for 3000 grafts. You can see my below HT pics on page 3 of this thread. So, here's my experience:

     

    I reached the clinic by 9.15 A.M. Dr. Prashant and his 5 assistants were already waiting for me. They gave me some loose clothes to change into and then Dr. Prashant drew my hairline by a marker. He showed it to me and amemded it as per my wishes. Then, one of his assistants trimmed my hair and they started the surgery at about 9.30 A.M.

     

    Dr. Prashant performs the "Punching" part of the surgery and one of his assistants performs the "Extraction" and "Plantation" parts. He had discussed this with me earlier and as per my research punching is the most important part and no doctor does the whole surgery alone anywhere in the world. So, I was ok with that.

     

    They first gave me a local anesthesia at 4-5 points on the back of my head and after about 3-4 minutes of pain, I could not feel anything. It took around 3.5 hrs to complete the first and second parts after which they dressed my back head wounds and gave me a 5-min break. Afterwards he again designed my hairline and his assistant started planting the hair. After about 1 hr, they gave me a break for lunch (which was provided at the clinic). Then the process started again and after about 3 hrs, they again gave me a 5-min break for tea. Finally, the surgery ended at around 8.00 P.M.

     

    AFter this, they again changed my dressing at the back and shampooed my new hair. They gave me a well printed list of medicines and instructions. After paying for meds and the surgery(seperately), I took my leave. They gave me a paper kind of cap(kind of like what surgeons wear) and told me to let it be on till Monday as Sunday was their leave.They also gave me a head band to help with the swelling. On Monday, I went back to the clinic. They removed my dressing, tended the back wound, again shampooed my new hair and told me to come after 14 days. And also to follow the instructions and meds.

     

    So, overall at this stage, my experience was ok. The staff is supportive(especially since I pestered them with a lot of questions). Dr. Prashant alternates between his other patients and surgery room after the "Punching" part and supervises the assistants from time to time. I suffered a bit of pain even after they gave me 4 injections of local anaesthesia at the front but I think that was exceptional to my case. The plantation was done by only one of his assistants who seemed more experienced than others. Rest of them were just helping. It was a bit uncomfortable during the whole process but I took about 4 naps :P. They were also playing some songs during it all to help with the boredome. I am sharing some pics below which I took about 36 hrs after HT. I will share if anything else happens. Hope this helps.

     

    @sid07 Hi! Congratulations for the treatment. Actually i met Dr Yadav on 15th Nov. Itself. Was the treatment done in the same premises where he consults since i couldn't see any treatment going on 15th Nov. Does it hurts after the Treatment. Do Share your 1 Week Pics.

  6. Hello Guys,

     

    So I have decided to go for FUE at Dezire clinic with my fingers crossed.

     

    It is a big decision for me. I finally made it because Dr. Prashant was kind enough to give me the contact no.s of some of his old patients. I made contact with them on phone and whatsapp. Asked a lot of questions too to clear my doubts. Some of them shared with me their pics, most were reluctant but they talked with me just fine. One thing common with them was that at their respective stages they are all satisfied. So thats it then. I am going for HT on 15th Nov. Dr. Prashant has asked me to undergo some blood tests. He is charging Rs. 35/- per graft for 3500 grafts. I am still contemplating on 3500. Thinking to go for 3000 instead, will have to consult him. He has agreed to use medications with different components because of my earlier swelling problem.

     

    So, I will keep you all posted. Below are my current pics:

     

    Hey Guys,

     

    Even i m from Pune & looking for a doctor. I have only consulted with Dr ****** ****** in Mumbai & he is amazing, however i cant afford his treatment at this stage. From all of your experiences Dr Prashant looks promising. Kindly do share your results and feedbacks. I m planing to consult him in following week.

     

    Thanks Again.
