What exactly does help hair whey protein do to address hair loss? From reading the ingredients it’s whey protein concentrate mixed with some vitamins.

Simply fantastic results

What device do u use for fue extraction (manual, waw, harris safe, etc). Do u have pics immediately post op including the donor and recipient placement?

Hello was .9 punch used because of the thick caliber of the hair?

This looks great. Big cosmetic improvement.

what would cause you to look for alopecia areata?

if a patient has a history of one outbreak of alopecia areata, one spot 2cm in diameter, dormant for two years, are they a candidate?

@jj51702 I’ve also read in a number of places that side windows don’t block UVA. However, the only real study I’ve seen on the topic indicates there is at least partial UVA protection in the side windows of most cars these days. 

An ophthalmologist tested 29 different car models 5 years ago and published a study with the results. The average side window UVA blockage was 71% (range 44-96%). The average windshield UVA blockage was 96%.

Good info! Do both uva and uvb harm grafts? I thought uvb is the main issue as it causes sunburn?

I've never seen the Chinese brought up in most conversations in regards to excelling in traditional western medicine. I think hair transplantation is such a niche field that it will be difficult to really try and expand into places like China.

I agree though that if a good surgeon could set up a similar business model as what they do in the multiple patients per day/tech run clinics it would be even more affordable than turkey.

The other issue is with the cultural differences that would spill into the aftercare. I just dont think China would cut it with western patients expecting the similar type of aftercare they receive with doctors in other countries like the US.

All just my opinion

Did they tell u what density they implanted the recipient at?

Just now, Dr. Sethi & Dr. Bansal said:

Also grafts are planted on the crown !

 

Why are you yelling?! I just asked about the total number of grafts implanted!

This is 3600 grafts total?

What do u include in your post op kit for patients to take home? What guard can a patient with this many grafts performed shave down to?

I’ve used both, I prefer foam. Both seam to work for me, but the foam feels less greasy and the spray also causes some redness and mild irritation which the foam doesn’t 

Did u use the spray after any of your hasson surgeries?

Looks great. So u still have new sprouts after 8+ months?

I still get a slight all over itchyness in both my donor and recipient area years after my hair transplants. I've heard some others mention this as well, so it's not completely unusual. It really doesn't bother me anymore. It's just normal to me now.

 

Did u have this itching before surgery? Do u think the itching can affect survival of the grafts? About a month after surgery I’ve been having itching in in the recipient since one month postop.

@SomeLad55 please respond to my PM mate

Yes he had a poor result, got refunded, and moved on with his life...This is a lot more common than we would like to admit. There are no guarantee's in life

did u personally hear this from him or is this speculation?

The picture shows a bottle of Indian manufactured minoxidil (morr) 

Did the doctor mention if the extra bleeding or scabbing can affect final results?

Just give it 12 months at least. I was worried too. I'm attaching 2 pictures. One is at around 6 months and another 8-9 months (I can't remember).

Wow...how much more sprouts appeared after month six for u?

I’m sorry to hear about what you’re going through and hope you can figure out what’s going on. Maybe follow up with another well known doctor or dermatologist specializing in hair loss?

You can easily search this forum for several repair cases, it’s not hard. Research around and get as many consults as you can from reputable doctors. Maybe reach out to joe Tillmann either thru his YouTube or website and he might be able to help direct u as he was a repair patient himself. Don’t lose hope it’s not the end. Good luck 

That’s good that there are no scalp issues. How long have u been on the Zoloft for?

I think the work looks great. Hairline is coming along nicely and crown filling in. How many of those 1600 grafts went into the hairline? How old are you btw?

Sorry to hear youre experiencing this.

Are you dealing with any scalp issues like flaking or itching/inflammation?

Are you on any other drugs besides finasteride?

Have you experienced a big life change or stress within the last year?
