I know that when you get a hair transplant that the grafts per cm² are less than on a non-balding scalp. If you aren't a high NW and are able to get upwards to the max grafts per cm², what are the styling options like? Does longer hair look too thin still?

How did you find travelling through the airport afterwards? For some reason I always get stressed out thinking of that.- 44 replies

How many grafts would I need to restore hairline?
jsmyth replied to jsmyth's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
That's disappointing to hear. I was looking at Dr. Bisanga for an FUE. I just don't want to have that kind of scar from an FUT. I like idea of FUE because the scarring is much less noticeable than the strip scar. If I ever did have to shave my head, I just think I'd be too self conscious. If FUE really is that poor of an option, I guess I'll probably just wait for another treatment to come along. -

Ya it is absurd how little the price has changed for so long. Like it's still hardly accessible. Basically a downpayment on a house. I've been looking at some of the surgeons in Belgium. They're a bit cheaper than NA and seem to be pretty well regarded. Rahal was a lock for me for a while and he has $1k of mine on depost from a long time ago that I could put towards but I just here so much iffy shit about his FUE on here. -

Ya I'll need to look into that I guess. I mean my hairline hasn't been especially thick for most of my 20s so I don't think I'd care too much. Just want the hairs themselves to be of a better calbre and it to be more uniform. I have sort of fine hair that's naturally been a bit more wispy so I'm never going to have that stand up kind of hair anyways. I need to just get an idea of what the density in that thinning part is currently I guess then go from there. Konior does some awesome work, but I just don't know if I could do the US. I think he charges like 8 USD for FUE grafts. So at 2500 that would cost me almost 30k in CAD. I don't mind paying for a quality surgeon but that is just too much. -

jsmyth replied to jsmyth's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Thanks for getting back to me! Do you think you could find an example/photo of what kind of density it would look like at around 2000 grafts. Would it look similar to how thin it does right now but just more straight of a hairline? What surgeon do you think would be a good option for this kind of case? -

Here you go - I want the hairline filled in in the corners and at the front but I don't want it lowered any further than where the middle currently reaches. -

Kind of a long story but I took Finasteride for 4 years and then quit because of sides. Developed PFS after that which I've had since. It's fucked up a lot of things but one positive is that I haven't lost hair anymore. -
I've been exploring and FUE procedure for my hairline and I used to always see Rahal's work and it looked incredible. I don't really see much of anything out of his clinic anymore. Is he still practicing and a top surgeon?

That is strange. Who do you think he is contractually obligated by?

Is this shock loss? (concerned)
jsmyth replied to RyanVodka's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I don't know if you will see this RyanVodka. I had a consult with Dr. Rahal for similar hairloss as you and was recommended 1200 grafts. I want to go FUE but I want some information from you. I saw that you needed another 1000 FUE after your initial 1200 FUE. Care to elaborate on what was wrong after the initial procedure (from your photos it looked good). I am also concerned about the shockloss you experienced in the donor area. I am currently 26 years old and have been on finasteride for 4 years without losing much of anything.
