    Here's a good video in English from your partner Dr. Bansal talking about temple points you can see she takes the subject very serious and seems quite knowledgeable about it. 

    I already did a video consult with her and was left with the feeling I would be in good hands with her it was one of the best consults I've ever done. 

    She said she taking family trip this month to US Florida my state i live and would try and meet up with me :)

    For me it would be nice if you guys had more HT examples of none Indian patients

    @Markee

    Thank you for your appreciation. 

    Temple area is very tricky! It needs a lot of experience to execute the right plan. In temple the hair almost sleeps on the skin. And directed below and backwards. The curl of the hair is upon the skin. That means the hair fall on the skin with the first curvature. This area has got slow growing hair, thin hair with less pigmentation. 

    So it is challenging but great to get it executed and make a difference to the facial profile of the patients.

    I need temple point work done so I'm always in the look out for any good examples of it and believe me there isn't many to be found very very few 

    Seems only a very small hand full of doctors can handle rebuilding temple points most all do a good job with the temple angle closures as a normal part of any HT but when it come to rebuilding the temple points that's a completely different story the majority  seem to just shy away from doing them at all 

    I've done quite a few consults and as soon as I start asking there patient adviser to show me some examples of the doctors temple point work that's when things go south and start falling apart they just can't find any to show me several great doctors going back decades with not even one example

    Thanks. 

    I am in India so difficult to do a in-person consult with Feriduni. I have sent my details to him him and it has been a week. It takes 3 weeks for a reply from the clinic. They have told me to hang tight.

    I am also pursuing with Dr Frieto, but survey is possible only next year. They will get me on a wait list, but I can't make it on a short notice. I need to plan as well.

    I will go with Feriduni if he can give me a date this summer. Lets see.

    Thanks again,

    If your in India I would defiantly do a consult with Eugenix 

    Check some of there results reviews  here pretty impressive

    Hi All,

    There seems to be interest so I will keep updating.   I too noticed when researching that there was a doctor and Jacques...who I thought was a doctor as well in all honestly.  Jacques did my consult via Skype.  During the procedure he did the following:

    1.  Anesthesia
    2.  Graft harvesting
    3.  Created the hairline
    4.  Final checkup after grafts were placed.  He spent a good 30 minutes looking at all the grafts and touching them up. I guess when he would try to set one a little better another would pop up. Probably due to swelling, etc.  

    I never saw the doctor.  Three techs placed the grafts.  

    Basically everything you see in the videos is exactly how it happened. There were no surprises.  Actually a brilliant marketing strategy if you think about it.  It really takes away the anxiety of the unknown.

    Thank you for the comments. It really is crazy how much different you feel. I feel confident as hell, probably more than I should but after more than a decade of hating to look in the mirror I can't stop now.  I notice the transplanted hair grows faster than my native. I will have to get a hair cut soon, but I was sort of holding off.   It is still a little thin in some areas but seriously I can't even complain as the transformation is way more than I expected.  

    Thanks for the honest review when you say he created the hairline are you saying he just drew the lines or he also made the hairline incisions ?

    Did you also get PRP included ?

    google "jacques abrahamian alvi armani" and its the second link. I'm not sure if I can link that website as its against the rules

    Yeah I googled it to me their hairlines do look very similar to Rahal's and Baubac 

    I don't know how much trust you can put behind Yelp but it has some glowing positive  reviews there 

    https://www.yelp.com/biz/los-angeles-fue-hair-transplant-clinic-pasadena

    I researched this clinic more. The guy who does the surgery (Jacques Abrahamian) is actually not a doctor, hes a physicians assistant. In the office, they have a doctor who I do not think takes part in the surgery, but rather plays a "supervisory" role since a PA needs to be working under a supervising doctor by law. However, Jacques seems to have some good experience with surgery as he used to work for Alvi Armani and supposedly was trained by Antonio Armani along with Dr. Baubac. So he left Alvi Armani and spun off this clinic, and here we are. Fun fact, Rahal used to work for Antonio Armani too. It's funny how connected everyone is in the hair transplant community.

     

    They seem to offer good rates (especially for california/US) at 6 dollars a graft and the guy seems to know what he's doing. However, for the people who would rather have an MD/DO working on them this might not be the right fit. Please, anyone correct me if I am wrong about any of this.

     

    To OP, your results look fantastic and it looks like those areas that were lagging a little have caught up. I would be very happy with your results. Please keep updating us.

    Those are definitely some interesting factoids where did you get that info from about where he was trainer and who he worked under ?  The guys site does say Jacques Abrahamian MPAS, PA-C 

    Djshakes  what part of procedure is he actually involved in ?

    Loupes are used to select FU for excision in FUE and for graft placement. Stereo microscopes (~10x) are used for examining/dissecting grafts post FUE excision or from a strip. Many FUE clinics don’t use microscopes but most of the best ones do.

    The reason I ask is I was discussing with the Eugenix rep Nelson about there (DHT) Direct Hair Transplant Technique  and how they single out there frontal hairs. I asked if use microscopes hes said they use 5x Carl Zeiss loupes and the doctor also goes on to say the same thing in this below shared thread. I don't have the best eye for spotting doubles in hairlines but to me looking at the before and after photo's on Eugenix  they look pretty good what do you think?
