I did my ht with dr Bhatti too in 2015 and the density is poor though the ht was somewhat successful. He offered me complimentary top ht but it’s too far for me so I will doing a second ht with another doctor locally to improve the density.

don't think i need meds cos i only have high forehead since young and not balding actively. finasteride was recommended by doctor for first 6 months to prevent shock loss and improve the growth rate. i will wait another few months and see how it goes. just wondering would another 500 grafts be sufficient for the density?

No meds except for the post ops 6 months of finerstride and minoxidil that doctor recommended. So what you guys suggest? Another round to improve the density. Quite disappointed I was not told about density during consultation. As I said, I wouldn't mind paying for another 500 grafts. And I heard the 2nd round of fue will have slower growth. Is that true?

Well he did say 2000 grafts and I will be looking great at xmas 2015. That did not happen obviously. I didn't realise I needed more density. If I knew, i wouldn't even mind having another 500 grafts. i'm sorry on my lack of technical terms but what is good total yield. Do you mean this is it? The best that it can go? I've went through posts of others with successful HT and never encountered one that looks similar like mine.

absolutely no meds. no smoking not even alcohol. well i would like more opinions first before naming the dr which i think he has quite a good reputation around here. perhaps i should wait till 12 months is up before concluding that the FUE is not well done?

why didn't the doctor told me then? I could have paid for another 500 grafts to save the trouble of having a second HT.

about 2000. this is my before having the transplant.

Had my FUE done with one of the recommended doctor in India last year July. 11 months has passed and I'm not really satisfied how it looks. I had my last hopes that the last few month will be better but seems like this will be the best result I will be getting after closing in at the 12th month mark. Attached are my results after 11 months. Seems like density is really poor compared to my native hairs and give an impression of frontal balding. Is this the result I should get after 11 months? What should I do now? Get a second transplant for touch up? Hope there is no need as it's quite tiring to go all the way taking a flight to India again. My profile: Asian (Chinese) 35 male
