  1. When does the shedding phase start? I’m in weak 3 of OM and no shed so far
  2. Just a curious question, does the length of hair affect the naturalness of smp blended in that area? I have a good amount of hair in my hairline(dark brown/white skin) but it still has that somewhat see through effect in my hairline. I like to have my hair at a long slick back length, will getting smp in that area make it look natural or will the smp look obvious? Is it more suitable for people for short hair ?
  3. Ok perfect. Glad I can start using my fingers to wash now. Will start tomorrow on my 10th day. Thanks
  4. Yes, he gave me instructions. I had fue, and they gave my sprays to moisture the grafts every 2 hours, vitamin e oil, hydrocortisone ointment for the donor, organic shampoo and Minoxidil spray 5%. He said to wash the area twice a day with a spray bottle filled with water by just spraying a mist onto the grafts with organic shampoo with no physical contact with fingers on grafts. And on the 28th day, I could wash with my fingers for the first time. I know all doctors give different instructions but 28 day to remove scabs with fingers seem long. Whats your take?
  5. So I had a transplant on last week 1/31 and my doctor said to not touch the grafts with your hands for a month. And to not wash off the scabs until the 28th day with fingertips. But from what I have read here, seems like the consensus is the 9th day or so to wash off scabs. What is your guys recommendation and if waiting 28 days is harmful to wait this long to remove scabs? Thanks
  6. Thanks. I have the aloe vera in my backyard. Is it better to use that or the aloe vera lotion.
  7. I'm 4 days post op and my donor still has visible red dots and done inflammation. Do you guys have any suggestions of what I can use to heal it ? I heard aloe vere plant. Thanks
  8. Will going to online an pharmacy like hims, keeps, roman give the same quality minoxidil or should I go to a clinic?
  9. Thanks man! Wish you luck too. And that's great advice. I'm not going to rush this. Mayne do some natural remedies first like scalp messages and onion/coconut oil hair treatment and see if I get results. If not,then a hair transplant is my only option
  10. It's TRUE. Dr diep has 2 patients per day regardless of its FUT or FUE. He does the extractions but thats about it. He didn't even do the recipient holes. He went back in forth between 2 patients asking how they are feeling and then he stays at his office the majority of the day. You are not going to dr.diep but to his TECHNICIANS. Luckily my brother got good results but it's still a concern how he operates.
  11. He booked in like 6-8 months advanced but had a cancellation so he took an earlier date. It went on his hairline and behind it. He likes his results so far at 8 months. Its only going to get better from here on.
  12. Yeah I get your concern..I remember reading someone's post saying dr. Diep only does one patient a day but during my consultation, I asked him if I would be the only patient he said no because I only had a small procedure 1200 grafts so they squeezed me in. But my brother had a larger procedure 2100 grafts and he still had the doctor go back on forth with 2 patients. Maybe you have a larger procedure which is why you would only be the only patient. How many grafts are you scheduled for ?
  13. I get your points but I chose not to go to Dr diep but to HLC in Turkey because the doctors do the extractions and planting the grafts. They only do 1000 max a day to ensure effectiveness and efficiency. For my case. Day 1 will be 750 grafts and same.number for day 2.
  14. My brother did fue and he wasn't the only patient for diep. He had 2100 grafts and diep went back and forth with 2 patients. So I don't know why you were lucky to have diep all yourself. My brother got quick results with 3 months. He's at the 8th month mark. Do you tend to see any improvement after?
  15. What's the point of choosing a quality surgeon if the technicians are doing the.majority of the work? We choose a clinic for the doctor not the technicians. My brother went to dr. Diep and all he did was the extractions and went back and forth between patients. Which is illegal I'm sure.
  16. Yes, It is common to reserve a spot. I'm actually gonna go.with HLC in Turkey too. Hopefully we made the right choice
  17. Going to book with hlc with my brother. Which doctor do you recommend? Akin? Ali? And any tips would be great
  18. Does he do FUE and Does he do the whole surgery himself ?
  19. Has anyone heard of this place or how their work is? My brother is going there in July and I want to make sure they do good work. They charge about 2.7 per graft so any info from you guys will be great thanks
