  1. Going solid so far , this was when I did my first hair wash 2 days ago I about started tearing up man. Life changing stuff. Have a pretty tough scab on the front right of my frontal hairline but not forcing it yet. Will probably make a post over time - any recommendations for when the shedding phase comes and how long it’ll last again? I’m just at 1.5 weeks post op and just want to prepare with any sound advise. thanks again man - cheers to your progression. We seem to have similar hair / donor hair so following closely 🫡
  2. I remember seeing you around during Sunday - Wednesday. Congrats on great results so far! I was there with my mother (stocky white guy w/a beard) and saw you walking around and you looked at ecstatic and comfortable , which eased my mind a lot. Im not sure if you remember ever seeing me. I’m about 4-5 days post op and am back home. Super excited for my results and heard all the stuff you want to hear from Dr. Das and the team (fantastic donor hair, high double yield, not needed to even use the beard.) Hope you have a fantastic recovery and result
  3. Congrats on the results so far - I just had my procedure done by Dr. Das and the staff. I’ll post my story as well soon. Can’t wait to see your final results. Gotta say ; I thought I had a pretty wicked beard. Yours blows mine out the water , pretty jealous 😂
  4. This looks incredible for not even 5 months in man. I messaged you on Instagram about everything a few days ago, thanks for all your help and am looking forward to a similar journey myself. You’re a good dude 🙏
  5. Thanks for your help - been in contact w Eugenix past week and after a few consultations w various doctors , was determined I’d need 5000-5500 and had strong donor hair/beard hair for a great transplant candidate. Gonna go book the Premium Package w Eugenix and Dr. Das for very early April. Cannot wait , now for the fun prepping of flights, travel, and bloodwork. Excited for a change in my overall health and view of many things in the next year
  6. Have not but will consider - I am in contact w Eugenix and am awaiting a final estimation of cost / hair grafts needed for the transplant. I see they offer great results for higher NW cases. Bicer is a great option and am highly considering her, but availability isn’t until Jan/Feb of 2024. Im interested in seeing what Eugenix has to say back, as my current 2 final places I’m considering are Bicer / Eugenix.
  7. Makes sense what you’re saying, there’s a lot of different things people say with what’s good / not good with large 4-6k graft surgeries and recommend not going above 4k ish grafts per surgery, so hard to gauge sometimes. I’ve never had a hair transplant (yet) so I can’t speak from experience, only those of others and recommendations. I haven’t thought too much into FUT because I’m not sure a scar would be something I’d want, but I’m not sure of the upsides compared to FUE. I’m much prefer FUE tbh , but would go FUT if it meant a much better result.
  8. From my understanding from our communication, she avoids doing a larger 4k + graft surgery to avoid donor depletion and preserve as much as possible for the best final results. If I’m able to get a final estimation and eventually consult with her 1 on 1, it’s always a question I can ask though. I’m interested to see what her thoughts would be.
  9. I should have said a bit more expensive compared to other options I’ve looked at in Turkey, my fault. But I’m aware those places who mass 5k+ graft surgery you at once for 2-5k is normally what you want to avoid 😂
  10. Hey, thanks for the comment. I agree, I’ve been in contact w Bicer and Dr. Yamun. Both were professional in the feedback I gave from pictures and videos. Both said I’d need more that 3500 grafts (not surprising). I’d say in total, I’d need 5000ish grafts to get a full transformation I’m happy with. Bicer, I know, doesn’t go above 3500-4000 ish per surgery while Yamun can go 4-5k per surgery. Bicer is more expensive compared to Yamun, especially considering the package and fixed price Yamun has with everything included. However, I’m leaning more towards Bicer, as the feedback I got was realistic to a long term approach (for full transparency, I’m aware I’ll need 2 surgeries for a “full” transformation, just am aware how important the first one is for donor hair retention and fixing issues/not creating other issues.) I am awaiting a final estimated price from her as of Tuesday morning, via the consultant on WhatsApp. The before and after pics of her work are remarkable, and she seems to do a lot of the work herself where Yamun, from what I seen, has more techs do the dirty work, which can lead to some results that aren’t as refined as paying a bit extra for more personal 1 on 1 surgery and what not. 3500-4k, to me (correct me if I’m incorrect or being unrealistic) is a reasonable first surgery, to touch up the hair line and add some volume to the crowd, then have a potential secondary one to touch up the final areas of the crown and any additional areas, no?
  11. Quick update: based on multiple messages back from a few different places and their consultants, I’ll probably need at least 4-5k for the decent coverage I’m looking for. Should be getting a final price estimation from Bicer, as I’ve been in talks with Consultants via WhatsApp and Bicer will have a look and I’ll have a final estimated price here in the near future. Also have messaged Hasson and Wong and Resul Yamun. I know Bicer is considered a bit more “pricey”, but I’m really enjoying the thorough questions , communication, and a more prolonged approach, no more than 4k grafts at a time and a dedicated plan that they take is really appealing and shows , to me, they’re about getting true results and are willing to not rush things for the best result. will keep updated as I hear back from more doctors and get a few options in terms of price and what can be done.
  12. I’m not limited to traveling, I would actually look forward to the travel abroad, as travel baseball really limited my ability to travel during summers and childhood I sent consultation requests for those 2 in that list mentioned above. My biggest worry, in general, is wait time I’d say at this point, I can only hope I can receive surgery by summer time. Fingers crossed I’m being realistic and don’t sound crazy. Thank you for the help again, I shall keep you updated mate 🤝
  13. No worries mate 😁 some people can take it one way, for me, made me think… and it showed how weak my research was, truthfully. So as a result, I’ve spent all morning researching and you were completely correct. It’s insane. Based off of the list posted above, I sent consultation requests and submitted my information to a few clinics around my area and in Turkey. I’ll take a look at Eugenix too. My main question, for that clinic, would be if the doctor works more so 1 on 1 with you and your surgery/procedure and post op treatment. You taught me to avoid looking at places that have technicians doing the main blunt work, I’d say as well. Or am I being too picky?
