Shera

Thanks Paddy, I greatly appreciate your kind words. Also just wanted to confirm that we will return from India on Saturday 15th October at 6.20pm at London Heathrow and not on the Sunday. One more thing, I am driving down from the Midlands so you will be free to hitch a lift with me if need be.

Hey Chuck1805, If you have a look at my own spacing of grafts in the link below, you will see that they are very similar to yours, I too had a few people questioning the graft spacing, but the end result speaks volumes for the skill and foresight of Doctor Bhatti. You seem to have a similar pattern and hair to mine so I can see you having a similar end result. Just carry on with Dr Bhatti's instructions, stay positive and enjoy your growth.

Hi Newbie, IMO you could probably have a hair transplant now depending on how much hair you have lost and if that loss is affecting you. The propecia will help sustain what you have left but will not bring back what has gone. A few pics posted of your front will help you get the right advice.

Dear all, One of my patients has had to pull out of this trip for personal reasons so there is now a space available if anyone is interested. All the details are in the previous post, it will be a trip to remember!

Hi Skylar, perhaps you might want to open my thread, kind of contradicts you in a very very big way. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178931-my-fue-dr-tejinder-bhatti-oct-2014-a.html Also, I happen to be in the UK, so you are free to see my fantastic result in person if you so wish. There are many more like me who just choose to walk away, move on and enjoy life with their new hair rather than spend any more of their time on forums. Also, your post is remarkably very similar to another recent poster, maybe you are the same person or maybe you are a lemming, I'll let the forum decide.

Thanks Paddy, sorry I missed this message altogether. It was a most enjoyable experience helping you out, I'm glad it all went well. I think if you could get through it all unscathed, especially the way you threw all caution to the wind, anyone can do it!

Dear all, Due to several requests and my own personal two year pilgrimage back to the place where I got my own magnificent result, I am taking a few patients from the UK in October 2016 to have their Hair Transplant procedures carried out by Dr Bhatti at his Darling Buds Clinic in Chandigarh, India. The plan is to fly out from London Heathrow on Friday 7th October (late evening) and arrive in Mumbai (Bombay) on the morning of Saturday 8th October (9hr 15min direct flight). Then its a whole days sightseeing leading us into an evening of the best entertainment this vibrant city has to offer before retiring back to our hotel. On the following day, Sunday 9th October, there is the option of venturing out again before catching our mid-afternoon (2 hour) flights to Chandigarh. We will reach Chandigarh in the late afternoon/early evening so there will be ample time for me to introduce all members of the party to some of Chandigarh's delights. Over the next few days, various activities and excursions will be planned around the HT procedures; obviously patients will have to sit out a day or maybe two due to surgery and recuperation. Then its back to the UK on Saturday 15th or Sunday 16th October, again just a 1 hour 15 min flight to Delhi and then just a 1 hour 15 min stopover before we fly back home direct. Again no tedious long waits at airports twiddling thumbs. At all times, we will be there as a group and I will be with you in person to ensure everything is taken well care off. I will try my best to ensure that all members of the party have the most memorable, rewarding and enjoyable experience. I have only a few slots left, so basically it's first come first served. However, because I'm already sure this one will be a such a hit, I am already planning another HT India Tour early next year. Please drop me a PM/email or phone for a chat if you are interested.

Hi, You could give Prosil a go, I know a few people in the UK who have used it with great results for scars but not HT scars. There's a company called Amred Healthcare which is run by an old school friend of mine who distributes in the UK and it's also prescribed by the UK National Health Service so is a proper legit product. It's also a US product so should be relatively easy for you to get hold of in the US. Oh, and I think it's silicon based not steroid.

Hi Ghumanz, Thanks for your continuous updates. I can almost feel you trying so hard not to get overly excited with your results so far! Have a look back at your pre-op pics just a few months ago and compare them to where you are now in such a short space of time........ I know exactly what you are going through my friend, enjoy the special moment. I'm sure the forum would love to see you progress even further, thanks for keeping us all updated.

Hi Johnny, in my opinion your hair is looking great, thick and healthy and hopefully you will see more future improvement. You can look forward to that. As for the botox, I really don't understand why you would want to remove the lines from your forehead. Here in the UK , I have a fairly large social mix of friends and family and the subject of forehead lines has never ever come up. I have met a few Danish people in the UK and abroad and again none of them ever gave me the impression that forehead lines are a going concern in their native Denmark. To summarise, maybe you should just wait for your hair to grow and mature and try to stop thinking too hard about other areas where you feel can improve your appearance, especially areas that are part of your unique characteristic.

Cheers Paddy, Your scalp is looking good and seems to be healing as expected. It was a pleasure keeping in touch with you over in India and quite amusing at times, albeit challenging keeping you on the straight and narrow out there! You had a great surgery and and an even better time, congratulations mate, you certainly did the Irish proud. Hopefully you'll keep the forum up to date with your progress, as always I'm only a whatsapp away.

Hi Starscream, Your scalp is looking very similar to my own after 1 month FUE. Nothing to worry about, keep the updates coming. Feel free to PM me anytime for any help and advice.

Hi Butch, thanks for sharing your most recent pictures. If you look back on where you started there is no doubt a huge difference. As others have already remarked there is an issue of density on your right side in particular. The good news is that Dr Bhatti has already said he will address this on your next visit. I am planning on visiting myself in October this year, maybe I will meet you there.

Hi Scandinavian, Wow, what a difference 4 weeks makes, you are now on the move big time. You seem to be mirroring my own results, you must be excited and pleased with the progress being made. Hope to see yet another massive difference in the next 4 weeks. I'm really looking forward to seeing your next update.

After any surgery, relaxation and recuperation in my opinion is the best thing you can do in order to give the surgery the best chance of success. It probably is possible to run a marathon 3 days post surgery if you are that way inclined and are prepared to put up with the discomfort and take the risk. But seriously what self respecting doctor would ever recommend doing such a thing?

Hi Paddy, use the link below Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews - Forum By and for Hair Loss Patients and then just click the New Thread button on the left. I have replied to your private message too.

Hi Silver669, congratulations on your hair transplant with Dr Bhatti, it's coming along very well in my opinion. A belated apology for the difficulty you had in paying the deposit in the UK, there is now a facility to pay into a UK bank account so future patients will not have the same problem. I look forward to seeing your future progression, please do keep us updated. Of course, if you have any concerns, please feel free to contact me or the clinic at any time.

Hi Martian31, Firstly thank you for giving me the opportunity to guide you through all aspects of your hair transplant procedure. Thank you for the write up, I'm glad your experience with Dr Bhatti and the Darling Buds Team was of the usual excellence we pride ourselves with. I will keep track of your progress, you also have my contact details in the UK so please feel free to get in touch anytime. Happy growing!

Maybe some day someone will invent/conjure up some acceptance medication for foreign grafts in the human body, now that would be a breakthrough.

Hi Mjht, For 5 months you are doing well. You still have a long way to go but you seem to be progressing to a result that will meet your satisfaction. I think you can afford to have that wry smile! Thanks for keeping us updated. Looking forward to seeing your continuous updates.

A very useful and informative article Dr Blake, thank you for making the effort.

Hi Alex, For 5 months, it looks very good, I don't think you have anything to worry about, you are on track. Over the next month or so, further hairs may poke through and generally your hair will now thicken and mature over the next few months. Every month should mark a clearly visible improvement on the last. It will be good to keep us updated.

Looking good Mick, hope you're enjoying your new lease of life.

Hi N00b, Thanks for your comments. My donor area was perfect and still appears to be now even after 3305 grafts taken out, it still looks perfect, basically untouched, I guess I just got a wee bit lucky there. My donor area has no miniaturisation and it was described by Dr Bhatti as 'Lush' when I initially sent my photos to him. I will have absolutely no problem going for a follow up procedure in the future should I need one. On another note I will be posting my 18 month update in the next week or so, watch this space!

Thank mate, I hope you have a similar journey to me.
