I'm not sure what u mean by "shed graffts"?

I mean it looks like now I just have to wait 3 maybe 4 months more to see the full result.

Please explain what u mean so I can answer correctly, thanks;)

my hair grow very quickly.

what a great surprise

Can you post moooore pics ???

This patient presented with a history of having undergone hairline restoration using outdated plug transplantation. For years he had been dissatisfied with the harsh appearance of his pluggy hairline. His surgeon attempted to refine the hairline with a session of single hair grafts that were placed in front of the plugs, but the patient continued to be bothered by an abrupt hairline and an unnatural pluggy appearance throughout the original graft zone. His hairline repair in my office consisted of approximately 2500 grafts which were placed with the intention of softening the pluggy appearance along the hairline and in the central plug zone.

looks amazing, was it FUE or FUT ?

hahahhahaha "smoke weed everyday!"

WOW this is really nice and amazing. Wonderful job!

On the fence? This is ridiculous. Did he tell you this before you had your surgery or are you finding this out now? Who would want to have surgery if the doctor says before a surgery that the result could have gone either way???

Did he show you examples of FUE into scar that he's performed to show you that this option is real or were they just words used to pacify you? It is kind of convenient that after one failed strip he says that you weren't a good candidate to begin with but you might be able to have FUE. The money milking is unbelievable. Was this also explained to you before your strip surgery, that you only had one surgery in you and that FUE would be necessary for any more work and what the expense of FUE would be? How much more is FUE than strip? I hope you update us all on how this goes. There are too many missing patients. Seems like once they talk to their doctor they fade away. Complain, talk to doctor, then exit stage left.

Really?

How do you always stand behind your patients? If you do a do-over what happens if that doesn't grow well? Do you do more surgery? Do you give a refund? I don't think there is a legitimate way to make up for bad growth. If you give a refund what happens to the hair that was wasted? It's gone and there is a scar left as a smiling reminder and the patient has no way to get that donor hair back. That's what I went through and is why I have to shave my head now. I've accepted it and it looks good but it wasn't by choice which is why I think the idea of saying you stand behind your patients is useless. You can't give him his donor hair back, you can't get rid of his donor scar and you can't put him back on the fence since you already knocked him off.

I like your approach :cool: Sai it like it is!

c'mon man , what's this ???

Take a professional camera or just a normal camera and take a great picture not this bs

This patient is 1 year out from a FUT procedure in our clinic. He is very pleased with his results.

Doctor... if that's your real picture then you need HT yourself.. :eek:

Thank you sir!

At least now I know it's not something unexpected, thanks man

Hey guys!

I am 3 weeks after FUT and today when I woke up I realized that on my right side I lost some hair and on right one everything looks normal.

Is that the "shocking fase" that I read about ? I attached few the pics so you can see for yourself.

What do you think ?

Guys! What I really want to say is that I just want to talk about FACTS. Not theories, points of view etc. and I can't get real life experience from somebody who never had HT! Simple.

With regards to the speeding analogy, an expert is an expert when they know why one must slow down and how soon based on the variables associated with differing vehicles and driving conditions. Simply saying one is going too fast is relative and generally easy. An expert would be able to make the statement that one should slow down based on the make, year and model of the vehicle and how the inertial mass will be slowed based on the braking system known to come with the vehicle from the factory and if the braking system is the actual system from the factory to begin with or if it is a third party braking system from Stoptech, Brembo, Wilwood, etc. The tires that are used, weather conditions, crash test ratings as determined by the NHTSA will also help to determine the survivability of a crash if one does not slow down and gets into an accident. An expert would know this from experience dealing with such situations on various levels and doing so with all kinds of makes and models of vehicles, stock from the factory and customized with aftermarket parts. This is what separates an expert, such as Carrol Shelby, warning someone to slow down from a lay person keyboard cowboy that might have some general common sense.

Whoa ! you just totally blew my mind :eek:

Hello empire.

Are you saying that someone who advises you about ht their point of view is worthless if they have not undergone a procedure?

Have a good day

"point of view" ???? To me this subject is too serious to give people "theories and points of view" , I need a practical real-life advices.

The moniker "expert" has varying levels of legitimacy in the context of the question asked.There are people that have spent time reading so they may be "paper" experts with no practical experience. This in effect makes them experts on nothing more than the experience of others. There are people that have had procedures so, in some cases, they may be considered by some to be surgical experts but this can only go as far as their own experience. Rarely have the two melded into one. Being an expert is more than the sum of the two parts mentioned. It involves seeing multiple angles of an issue and using logic combined with experience as opposed to emotion and hearsay to convey legitimate information.

"This in effect makes them experts on nothing more than the experience of others" and that's exactly what I'm talking about

You can read books about skiing all life bt one day you will have to put them on your feet and do it yourself.

And maybe then you can teach people about it and tell them what to do.

I would recommend shaving down the native hair at this point so it all grows in evenly. Keep us updated, and good growing to you!

Yes sir, I already did that

Thanks for great advise!

All the best.

I love to work out, however many times I heard/read that creatine, amino acids etc. contains ingredients that make your hair fall out.

Do you know if that's true or not ?

How is this even possible that there's sooo many people here that consider themselves experts (senior members with even 5 years of experience), give advices to others but in the question "have you ever had a hair transplant" their answer is "NO"....?????:confused:

Can somebody explain that to me ???

Thanks man

I don't have any pics from before surgery on my computer.

I will need to download them from my phone and I'll post them later.

yes sir, he is very good.

We'll see in 4 months

Have a great day.

Yes, definitely I will post more pics. Probably 4 months will be more visible:) Thanks guys!
