  1. 2500 grafts was never going to be enough for that area anyway. I do not know why Dr. Bhatti decided to go with that number, maybe you have a thin donor? In that case the hairline should've been even more receded. I have to say, looking at this picture the procedure does look like a failure. If the problem was with you all along then Dr. Bhatti should've simply told you that you aren't a good candidate. Mate I'd just shave my head if I were you and move on. I think you'll be just fine
  2. Just want to thank everyone from my side too. I almost went ahead with Dr. Bhatti a few months ago only to pause for a bit after reading a few negative reviews. From then on, I've only seen terrible results from Darling Buds. The scarier part is how the reps have blamed the patient for the failure in every case. My only hopes of getting a decent transplant seems to be from Dr. Bansal now. Will have to research Eugenix a bit.
  3. 6 months of growth should give you enough idea of where you are headed. Just look at successful transplants, they look great by the 6 month mark and the donor is completely healed. We can talk about improvements if we've got a good base around the 6 month mark. Reps usually ask you wait for 12 months only to damage control.
  4. Jesus Christ. Why would anyone reply this way? What you're asserting here is that if the procedure is a success, the doctor takes credit but if it fails, the patient is to blame. There could very well be plenty of reasons why a transplant could fail but blaming the patient at every step is just ridiculous.
  5. I don't understand. Why is the graft count so low for such a large area? Do you have a weak donor area?
  6. I'm really surprised with your answer here. I sincerely hope that this forum doesn't ONLY protect the clinic's interests and reputation at hand here. This forum has backed patients and should do in this case too. I agree that its too early to comment on the final result, but the donor definitely has been treated to some poor work and it doesn't need months of waiting for that to be apparent. Honestly, I am just shocked at the response @Nebulosity has received from you. One would be more understanding provided that he's already been through so much. Regards
  7. I have to agree with this, yes. It is the doctor's responsibility to judge the best-suited hairline for the number of grafts that are available for harvest. In this case, I can't help but wonder why it wasn't designed to give a more receded look.
  8. Thanks for the write up. Can we have some pictures please?
  9. Thanks for posting. This is a very good result. You might also want to note that many of us who do follow your clinic have seen all these cases on your website. You might want to post newer ones. Regards
  10. I am not the patient. I supposed I have been tagged by @ahmedabad_guy due to some sort of confusion. @johanchicago is the patient.
  11. Mate, you look absolutely fantastic the way you are, with the SMP and that beard! IMO you shouldn't really bother with an HT. But go ahead and do it if it makes you feel good! Regards
  12. Also tagging @Shera. Dr.Bhatti has done some complex repair work. Maybe @russtaman can get his opinion too.
  13. I agree, the SMP was solid work. About the scar: If I were you, I'd consult some good doctors around me to see if it can be camouflaged a little bit better, but if nothing works I'd leave it behind. The same amount of time, money and effort can be put into growing a good beard, working out or even on dressing well. The scar doesn't have to be the only thing that holds you behind from living your life. You might have heard that a lot, but in all seriousness, both the shaved look and the 1mm buzz cut would suit you good. Yes, the scar might stand out a bit, but trust me it doesn't look that bad and certainly, nobody is going to judge you for it.

  15. Hey, I am really sorry to hear that you had to go through all that. My personal advice would be to not worry about your scar - it seems to be taking a huge toll on other aspects of your life than it should. When we usually bald during our 20s and 30s, we often spend loads of money and time trying to fix it, in the end, some of us succeed, some of us don't. You can try to fix your scar with another repair procedure, but I feel its high time that you move on from all this once that particular effort is done. In my personal opinion, you don't look bad/odd at all with a shaved head. You could also try sporting a beard.
  16. Hey @Abhinay Singh This is a solid result. Looks like the crown area was also operated upon, could you please post pictures of that too? Also pictures of the donor post op would be nice as well. Thanks
