My transplant with Demirsoy (Istanbul) 2773 grafts.
HLPToronto replied to fireboy99's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
It seems like you went for High density and all 2700 grafts were placed at the front. Looks like clean work, and the fact that once everything was done, you paid is surprising most clinics ask a deposit, or at least pay upfront but this is professional to trust the patients good luck, i m sure you will get great results as your hair caliber from donor looks good/thick. would you mind sharing was it per graft 1.25 Euros rate for you or a total package ? -
Microneedling Thread *Give Me More HAIR
HLPToronto replied to Melvin- Admin's topic in Open Hair Loss Topics
I think the science and the logic behind microneedling makes total sense. blood rushes to those areas and if blood circulation is triggered by an act, that area must be nourished to better function and have better hair eventually good luck, i am on the fence about ordering one for my scalp too, let us know please if you see a good difference in few months and stay the course -
Sharing with my HT community brothers : 11 months completed, some random pics - after shampoo, blow dry only : Dr. Bhatti did a great job for me, can't thank him enough : I can sign off today, :) if i see myself before/after ( as you're the best judge always, based on your life/situations and improvements ) no regrets, fine job. also, everyone says looks very natural. I can share some donor pics too later :

Short hairstyle after transplant
HLPToronto replied to Pyrat's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Hey Pyrat, I would recommend choosing work from home option for 2.5 months ( if its possible), if not, wear a hat -fedora , base ball cap not good for meetings, take at least 2-3 weeks off and after wards, avoid too many meetings, interactions if possible as red ness will be there.. until 3 rd month begins in most cases , it fades away for good hair style example : I would recommend getting sides buzzed completely or .3 or .2 and let the central part grow, it always adds to the illusion and blend them into spikes creating a thicker central illusion, if you overlap like i do check out my pics just posted on my original thread : you might want to try that. good luck -

I could see the difference - shine, conditioning, strengthening right after coconut oil..... if we use it regularly for years, i think its also one of the game changers that many ppl don't realize. same with rice water ( old ancient technique from chinese villages) -

BTW @Lennney my biotin and finastride stock ( from Bhatti's ) is going to finish in 1 week Do you have a name of biotin brand i can now purchase ( stock for next 6 months ) Do you know how/where to buy finastride ( propecia ) in Canada , I think it needs doctors referral first, only then i could go to drug stores and buy it -

Where were you today 18 years ago
HLPToronto replied to Melvin- Admin's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Lol, I was at the residence in my university days with a few other folks and we watched on TV.... the entire situation it scared me ( i still remember ) never ever seen anything like that - a plane head on with a skyscraper , i called my NY Aunt that time too to make sure she's fine -
Where were you today 18 years ago
HLPToronto replied to Melvin- Admin's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Was at the peak of my life, the best moments especially with that carefree natural hair ( 1000 per cm2 lol exaggerating ) but i guess no surgery can bring that back ever It's correct to say HT provides an illusion only so, I was out of illusion 18 years ago -

HLPToronto replied to Lennney's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Great progress Lennney Agreed on the comment : daily shower is not healthy for hair thickness, I also shampoo every 2/3 days now and try to keep hair away from any water also for 2 days in a row sometimes. only coconut oil and let it sit there, moisturize the scalp nicely and then wash it -

Looks really good Lennney, sometimes you dont notice yourself but ask a 3rd eye, i am following your journey and you are almost there. good difference between your 5 month vs 7 month timeline - very happy to see that regarding finastride shed, there are mixed theories, ppl say if you begin finas and minox together ( as we did ), both individually will contribute towards shedding for 3 months each. Not sure if those 3 months are one after the other totalling 6 months or overlap each other -

3500 Grafts 23 Yrs Old Almost 5 Months Post Op
HLPToronto replied to BEL8's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
Hey Lennney, i think we are all on the same page here; there are two components to this : thin hair small hair, growing very slowly , my main concern after 5 months is - do they ever catch up with your natural hair in terms of density, straightness, color, contract and most importantly equal length ? for example if my natural hair currently are 6 inches long, will 1 inch baby hair ever catch up to be 6 inch long if you comb, they all come to the same level and then cut them with scissors i am doubtful this would ever happen for every single hair follicle that was transplanted , we should just wish maximum # of grafts eventually catches up with the natural ones -
