Just over 2000 graft FUT procedure with Hattingen Hair
UKLad81 replied to UKLad81's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Hi mate, you can find the prices on the Hattingen website - they are very transparent but to give you an idea itβs about 3-4 euros. I was extremely lucky to get the spot i did (possibly a cancellation happened) but when I initially consulted with him in Jul/Aug it was about 3-4 months wait time. Drop him an email and get further information from him, hes a top guy. -
I second / third Konior as well. If you can afford his fees he would definitely be the one - hands down and i mean no disrespect to the other surgeon, his work is very good also. If its hairline work you are doing Konior is probably the best - very natural hairlines and dense and he can do wonders with less grafts. Dr Cooley is another one you could consider also in the USA over in Charlotte - very ethical doctor and does some really decent hairline work. If you would consider Europe i personally really like some of the work from Pinto and Ferreria and there is another i just cant remember the name right now.

Iβm back on oral fin 0.5mg daily. I do have some sides but not as drastic weighing up my options on trialing dutasteride as despite being on this dosage since Sept Iβm not seeing any real benefit just yet. Quite liking Melvins posts about Xyon however, itβs not available in UK otherwise I wouldβve jumped on that. That said, the good thing and i guess i got lucky with HIMS was that they offer a 90 day money back guarantee so i told them about my sides a month in and asked them to cancel my subscription. After the 90 days i put in a claim for the money to be refunded and was actually surprised that it was refunded with no questions asked. / I do the HIMS topical fin and Minox solution matey.

Iβve trialed it for about a month or so and noticed sides within a week of usage. Tried to give it some time but decided not to continue. Besides, i found that it made my hair feel like crap after applying.

Scabs Feel Hard & Are Difficult to Dislodge
UKLad81 replied to wprevil's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Looks pretty clean to me, no need to panic. There is a couple of scabs but doing what you have done already should get rid of them. -
Just over 2000 graft FUT procedure with Hattingen Hair
UKLad81 replied to UKLad81's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Cheers Buddy Iβve got everything crossed for this one. Donβt think i can handle another one! Haha Thank you matey. I did do a thread but just for context Iβve added a picture of how things looked after the first HT. The first picture was before any HT, 2nd one was around the 3rd / 4th month after HT 1 and the last one was at just after 12 months of HT 1. Also attached how things looked after HT 2 with dry hair. -
Havenβt seen anywhere doing this in the UK. Will do another search and see what i find.
-
Yep itβs super expensive. Iβve just gone back to 2.5mg and now buying from OxfordOnline. Far cheaper. I didnβt see much benefit from the 5mg hence just dropping it down to 2.5mg. If i wanted to i could just take two of these but Iβm okay for now.

Just over 2000 graft FUT procedure with Hattingen Hair
UKLad81 replied to UKLad81's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Third one mate. To give a little more context. I was probably a slick NW5A with nothing but a frontal tuft at the start of my journey. -
Hi mate, i used to get them from UKHairMeds. This was one that was recommended by Bisanga. Hope this helps.

So Iβve just completed day 7 after my FUT with Dr Sever and his wonderful team. Iβm not going to go in too much detail as many of the other posters have described it very well and itβs almost exact like for like. Dr Sever, Laura and his team are extremely professional. I do love Dr Severβs personality hes just got this cool and calm personality and very much made me feel at ease. I was a little nervous with this one even though it was my 3rd FUT - not sure why i was so nervous but as i said once i was with Dr Sever he calmed everything down and i knew i was in good hands. Anyway, we were shooting for 2500 grafts but only managed to get just over 2000 (Iβm still awaiting the final numbers). The plan was to address the crown and some of the midscalp. So the first part was obviously the incision - which started off okay the anaesthetic shots were a little discomforting but once everything is numbed out and the Valium kicks in, itβs a little easier. I do recall hearing the incision being taken out. This was a bizarre sound. I also recall just having a causal conversation with both Muresanuβs during this - not sure what about but i know i was chatty! The staples in certain places hurt, i was topped up with a little more anaesthetic and the pain subsided. The rest of the day was like a well oil machine, Laura Sever did all the holes for the grafts and then shortly after lunch the technicians under the extremely careful eye of Laura did the implants. The day started at 745 and finished around 1600. Was bandaged up and given all the meds together with saline solution and marched off to the hotel. The first night wasnβt too bad but i guess this was bcoz of the anaesthetic and the pain killers kicking in. Didnβt get much sleep as was up every hour or so spraying. The next morning went to get the first of 3 washes. All went okay and everything looked pretty good after the wash. I had a further 2 hair washes with the clinic before departing Zurich. All in all, i found Hattingen very professional, they knew exactly what they were doing and actually i enjoyed being in their company. To summarise i got just over 1400 grafts in the crown and 600 odd in the midscalp and some in the hair line. Since then the incision has given me some grief mainly at night and i think i have had to take pain killers pretty regularly. The staples are a little discomforting but not as bad as those anaesthetic shots in the forehead (jeez those killed!). I did swell quite heavily on day 3 started off lightly whilst at Zurich airport and thankfully was back at home before it swept its way across my forehead and down to the eyes. Now on day 7 i have no swelling the odd pain around the incision and lots of scabs which i hope with a little more pressure over the coming days i can remove. Pictures are as below - these are all my own and have not received any from the clinic just yet). @Melvin- Admin, i did pass on your message and did say Hi to both on your behalf ! π First is prior to the surgery. Couple whilst still in the seat and the final two over the weekend! Hopefully they render in the correct order. Any questions, feel free to ask!

Scabs Feel Hard & Are Difficult to Dislodge
UKLad81 replied to wprevil's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
@Melvin- Admin how many days post op were you at this stage? Iβve just completed day 7 since my FUT procedure and scabs in parts of the incision and in the crown where the majority of the work was done. These are proving to be a bit difficult to remove, Iβve not been given any conditioner as such by my doc - just a bottle of shampoo. Today i soaked the head under a light pressured shower head with some shampoo and did rub - probably not hard enough as only a few scabs came off. Iβll try your method tomorrow (with advice from the Doc of course and see how this goes). Thanks for your video mate.
