I had my blood test in Hungary rather than trying to arrange it at home. I didn’t ask to find out what was being tested. It was easier for me that way and it gave me a free day before surgery to take a look around Budapest.

I have personal experience with the hairpalace and anybody wanting to know more about it should take a look at my experience by looking at my profile and reading my story. I have nothing but positives to say about them. They are definitely not a “Hair mill” They have been around for many a year and I genuinely cannot be happier with my transplant. From start to finish they were great and the end results speak for themselves. I still haven’t been back for the 2nd part of the treatment yet with Covid and other circumstances but I genuinely not in any rush. I’m very happy with how the first has gone. ps. I’ve been enjoying the weather, hence the red face

Hi, it’s now about 18 months since my surgery. I just though I would post some updated images to show what it looks like dully matured. This is still the 1st of 2 stages. I am hoping to go back to Budapest to get the rest finished of early next year.

Yes, I had a great experience at the hair palace in Budapest. I’m sure in 3 to 4 months you will have great result. You just need to be patient now, the good times are ahead.

It was Doctor Ljuba Zsolnai

Cheers guys, I’ll try and post some new shots in the next day or so. I’m at the 18 month mark now. Not much has changed and I’m still planning to go for the second session when I can find the time and money. It’s still one of the best things I’ve ever done.

A last comparison shot.

Thanks for the feedback. As in products, do you mean mouse or clay? All I have in is a little mouse and then blown dry. A little spray gel brushed through for shine and hold, no concealers or anything like that.

Well, here I am, nearly 1 year to the day that I set off to Budapest on my journey. What a year!! Here are my final photos until I start the next stage of my HT, hopefully later this year, all things considered. Just had a haircut and it’s probably the best it’s going to look.

I shaved mine down to the next one up from a 0 (can’t remember the size exactly but it wasn’t the shortest) from about 2 months. You can probably see in the photos on page 1. I’m sure my clinic said it should be safe by then. I was really gentle and I remember the first few times I would shave everywhere else apart from the transpalnted area and cut that area short with a pair of scissors, just to be sure. i don’t think you should be able to pull grafts out that far into the healing process but I may be wrong.

You will, it’s like VicTYNC said above, I think yours just look a little thin at the moment because you’ve been growing it out. I shaved mine really short from day one until it started to thicken up and then I started to leave it longer. Even now, the longer I grow mine, the thinner it looks. That’s why I need to go back but I’m more than happy so far.

I genuinely wouldn’t worry about where you are in relation to my transplant. We are all different and I’m sure by next month you will look at your comparison shots and notice a hell of a difference. I know I was permanently concerned until it all started to happen for me but the best advice I can give you is don’t worry. Are you taking any meds? I’ve been taking finasteride from day 1, I haven’t had any side effects. I take a biotin tablet just to aid hair and nail quality. I also use minoxidil but only started taking that 2 months after the HT. I don’t know if any of these meds have helped me or not and I’m afraid to stop taking them just in case things starts going backwards. At the end of January is my 12 month mark and I’ll update with probably my final photos until I can save up enough to get my 2nd and hopefully last HT. Good luck and don’t worry......

Your at the interesting time of your transformation now. The four month mark was the start of real growth for me and I then started growing my hair out . Until this point I was shaving it short. You look right on track for great results. You’ve had nearly double the amount of grafts that I’ve had so you should look amazing in 8 months or so. I’ll show you my 4 month photos but I think they are probably just a repeat of earlier ones from this forum.

Hi, Yes, they told me 1st time around that I had more than enough donor hair for a 2nd visit. This was their plan. They said that a 2 visit procedure would be the best corse of action. Thanks for your kind comments.

Thanks for your nice comments. Im pretty sure I’ll be going back later In the coming year to get the job finished. Most of my friends and family say I shouldn’t bother and save the money but i would like to finish what I started.
