Thank you, man!

Sup guys. Here is the 7 month update:

Thank you guys! 😃

Hi guys, 6 months:

I have a question guys: how will finasteride be any helpful if the quasi totality of Portugal25's hairs are implanted hairs. I thought finasteride was useful to preserve native scalp hairs.

That's good to hear.

I hope so. I know patience is necessary in this process, so even though I have some questions in my mind, I kinda hold myself from having an opinion on the result for now. We'll see.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay. Here is the 5 months and one week update:

Any update on this?

Thanks Gatsby. It's reassuring to read your guys nice comments. I am impatient to see how it will all evolve with time.

😅 thanks bud I am flattered. I plan to go a second time for the crown, when the budget will be available.

Thank you guys, that makes me feel good. I'll keep you guys posted all along until the 12 months mark for sure.

Hello guys, here is the 4 months update. The next one should be after my first haircut.

Thanks brother, appreciate it.

haha thank you guys, right this part of the face has been blessed.

Hey people, here is the 3 months update:

lol I was hoping to make one or two smile

I will 😉.

Cheers

Hello, here is the 2 months update:

I agree 100%.

Thanks brother I'm gonna check it out 😊.

Dr Elif for me, 6 sessions over 3 days and she did it all. I noticed from other HLC reports that the other doctors tend to rotate for extractions and placement, as it was for you I guess?

Not exactly. To be precise, on the first and second day extraction and implantation were done by Dr Cengiz, and the third day scalp extraction and implantation were done by Dr Umut. Dr Cengiz only extracted the beard on the last day. I know @Portugal25 is more confortable with knowing who is going to be the surgeon which is why he went to Pekiner's clinic, and I think his argument is strong and valid. However personally, after thinking about it, I liked the benefits of teamwork.

When did you have your procedure friend? Have you posted it?

Best

Hey another HLC patient! Happy for you man, looks great at day 11. Which doctor did your procedure?

Thanks buddy. Dr Cengiz and Dr Umut both worked on me on different days. How about you man?

Yes totally normal, everything looks great man, you went to a great clinic, HLC are the best clinic imo

btw do you happen to know how many grafts you have left in your donor? thanks

Thanks man. I don't really know. I wish I asked when I was there because the doctors were quite cooperative. I tried to asked them on WhatsApp after I got home but did not get the response yet.

All comments are welcome.

PS: is it common that my scalp still feels numb after 2 weeks after the first day of surgery?
