So I am having my surgery done on August 9th with Rahal, and have met some patients recommended by the clinic, all feels fine. However, I just came across Sean's long thread on his not so good experience with Rahal FUE (i'm doing FUT) and I'm a little nervous now. It would benefit me so much to meet with a fellow forum member who has had work done by Rahal here in Ottawa to calm me down a bit, and so I can see results on a real person so to speak.Anybody available at all before August 9th would be a huge help. If located anywhere near, such as montreal or toronto, please don't hesitate to message me. I have no problem coming to you, wherever that may be. As we all know, you can't be too careful with this decision.

anybody else here not use minox after transplant with good results? Or have tried using it and not using it for different transplants with similar results?

any update on the temple points?

yes i get that, but also just want to see what they look like in the hands of my surgeon because I really haven't seen that many examples, and the one I did see that was close to mine in the Rahal collection is not showing up anymore (something up with the links I think). That's why I'm so eager to see some examples, just want to know the option is there. Rahal simply said to me that when you do the temples, it looks more "done" so he didn't want to do them, but I would like to still see examples.

Hey! Thank you so much! I very much look forward to seeing them

I’ve met some past patients with amazing hairline work but none have had temlle work. Rahal’s office has sent me temple results but nothing as drastic as i want , and nothing with course hair which i seem tk have someone please post your results if possible

That’ GREAT to hear, because I realllyyy do not want to use but still want as close to 100% yield as I can get

do you absolutely NEED to though? Like will the hair still grow in the same?

Really eh? are you on track in terms of growth? Are you able to provide me with anyone else who hasn't taken it?

i definitely need them because the space between my eyebrows and temples i 4cm +. How are yours looking so far? I am getting my hairline advanced and really think i should get my temples done as well, but my hair is kind of course so I'm thrown off. Does anyone have any examples, besides the one above? I believe I will need more advancement than the one above. Pictures will come the day of my procedure in August

Anybody not use minox after transplant and get great result?

I know it is recommended to use minox in the first year for maximum growth, but is it absolutely necessary? I really hate it and would much rather avoid it as I think it was messing up my skin

dr konior does all the graft placement? I thought that was the job of techs because it is far too laborious for one person. Can an expert please clarify

yeah he said if u bring those in, it looks like u had work "done' so to speak so now im quite confused

how do you temple points look now, very natural or too thick? I am considering temple points but want them to be as natural as possible

hey thanks for the reply. Which doctor is this result from? Also, when I said they would look unnatural, I was referring to doctor rahal not wanting to transplant in the temples in fear that THAT would look unnatural. But the guy above seems to have a great result! Hoping for something similar

yeah exactly, and for me sometimes his look unnatural so I am really looking for anyone who has had natural work done. I saw a konior case where they were absolutely perfect, but that's been about it

he actually said that temple points make it look unnatural, like work has been "done" so I'm pretty confused because if they look unnatural, then wouldn't all transplanted hair essentially look unnatural? I really need them done because where I want to lower my hairline to looks weird if they don't come in

I think I may have posted my original thread in the wrong section woops. Anyways, here is my original post: About to get a hair transplant with Rahal at the beginning of August to lower hairline, but I also want to do my temple points. I really don't like a short but wide forehead. I was wondering if someone, anyone on this forum who has had temple points done (with Rahal would be the biggest bonus but obviously does not matter) could comment maybe with some pictures of how it turned out and how natural they look in comparison to the rest of their hair/hairline. I know that they are quite hard to do so i want to be very careful than can and do look natural. Anything helps

I really don't want to use minox, it dries my face out really bad. Is it necessary to take after a transplant? I would rather do prp or something

pretty damn good tbh. but how did you dense pack 80-85 fu/cm squared I thought that is natural density and thus somewhat impossible? Rahal, a true leader, only does about 50/cm squared so im kind of confused

Have u had a procedure? It’s honestly insanely nerve racking i just don’t want to mess anything up

Any updates?

Any reason this was done over 2 sessions instead of 1?
