Eugenix seems to have lots of people on their paybook!

Hi guys, I am mentally preparing myself to go for a fue HT this year and my latest concern is...will I be able to shave my hair down to zero without making the fue scars noticeable? That is assuming that either the fue ht goes wrong or I keep loosing native hairs so therefore I'll have to have a shaved head. What do you guys think? thanks

Rahal and H&W are definitely producing good results but their pricing is totally insane, that's my opinion. At half the price I would look into the popular Spanish and Belgian doctors who are producing results as good as the doctors mentioned above but first of all you have to decide whether to go with fut or fue.

Hair Transplant with Dr Bhatti 2953 grafts
Jhonny replied to itxrd's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
@itxrd hey mate any update? Thanks -
@HLPToronto mate I love your topic and every single word you said reflects 100% my thoughts! I am extremely keen to see you how you go, your post-op feedback will play a very important role on my decision. Dr.Bhatti is on my top 5 list at the moment, on my opinion his only downside is density at the moment and since it is one of your concerns too I am sure you'll address it to the Dr and get a professional reply/outcome. I wish you all the very best for your today's surgery and we will all be waiting to hear back from you!

Best doctors who perform HT surgeries themselves?
Jhonny replied to bruce90's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I absolutely agree with bruce90, in fact I am too only considering doctors that do extractions and incisions by themselves. The ones I know so far are Bhatti, Demirsoy, Lupanzula. I'm very interested to know more names as well (on this price range in my case only). -
4296 grafts, Dr. Erkan Demirsoy, Super happy

Hey mate, how is it going ? -
Looking at your pre op pics I would have guessed 2500grafts would have done a good job on you but you obviously went for high density and with a surgeon that work that way...I guess I know who he is LOL
-
I got quoted from 3000 to 7000 from different doctors so it is very confusing. Would 3-4000grafts give me an overall decent coverage? Do I have 7000grafts available? I would personally go conservative since my pattern is not probably defined completely and ideally i would prefer a full coverage with lower density than high density and bald spots in a few years because not more donor available.

@txtransplant thanks for your email, I feel like you got all the points i wanted to clarify! I am not considering FUT at all for all the reasons stated by you. I always thought that if the transplant doesn't go well and I have to buzz my hair down the scar will be quite visible making the things worse than before, so no FUT for me. I am aware that filling the whole bald area would be challenging and I am willing to sacrifice a bit the temporal and crown area, I agree that hairline and midscalp are the areas that gives the first impression and a poor crown is something to be accepted for a fella close to his forties i would say. i can see that my pattern is exactly the same as my dad who is 75 now, his crown is actually way worse than mine but sides and mid-lower back are still ok so I guess that is where I am heading. Yes budget is a big point for me and honestly like you said I keep seeing great results from Turkey, India and Belgium which are way more affordable(Belgium not really) so my choice will probably be on those countries. I live in Australia and I go back to Europe once or twice a year so travelling to those countries is not a problem. Question, how many graft would you guys think can be harvested from my donor? 5000 + a touch up sounds a lot, not sure it can be done in my case. Other question, if I want to preserve the donor for future touch ups and i choose to go with a lower density, can I increase the density in the future without risking to damage the existing hair? Making new incisions in between the existing hair previously implanted sounds like a big risk of transecting them to me? What do you think?

Hi Shera, I followed your journey all the way and I must say you got a great outcome. Finasteride killed me, like I said I stopped it 6years ago due to heavy side effects, I am not sure I am willing to take that risk again. That's a good definition of how I would like to look after the surgery, I hope it is possible. Hi mate, I got a quotation from H&W and I must say I felt very offended to say the least! Ridiculously insane!

Glad to see you in my post Melvin, I'm very pleased! I totally agree with you, I will never look full of hair. As normal I mean with good overall coverage that, with a touch of toppik I would be able to hide my scalp and look younger 😉 At the moment toppik doesn't work, the bald area on my midscalp is too big and there are not enough hair for the toppik to grasp on to. How would you guys classify the caliber of my hair? I feel like they are medium-fine which doesn't help when transplanting hair I assume.

Thanks Spaceman, glad to hear your opinion. I would prefer to do it all at once but if not possible, well yes I would consider multiple procedures. I will get into choosing Doctors soon, the ones you have mentioned are top choices but honestly over my budget. Agree to avoid temporal region, for now, this is a good point!

Hi everyone, I've been a silent reader for ages and thanks to you all I gained a lot of experience and knowledge! I'm 38, been on finasteride for about 10years, stopped it 6years ago, now on minoxidil only since about 6-8months. Got dramatically worse in the last 6months(minoxidil?). I am at the stage where I am finally planning for a hair transplant. I contacted several doctors and got very different opinions and quotations number and $ wise. Many of you on here can praise great knowledge and I would really love to hear your opinion in terms of a number of grafts, area to focus on more and obviously what you think the outcome would be. Will I ever be able to get good overall coverage where I would look "normal"? I am considering FUE only at this stage. At some stage I will bother you again in regards to the Doctor that would suit my budget and needs better, but not now, don't want to bother you too much at once 😉 Pics just out of the shower with noting on 😞

Been takin finasteride for about 10years and stopped because side effects. I also did a blood test and my prolactin went up to the sky, 10 times higher. According to several doctors it had something to do with finasteride. Took me about 2years to get back to normal. It worked hair-wise but killed my libido. There are not enough scientific studies in regards so I am surprised how easy it is being prescribed everyday.
