Hi guys,
I finally decided to move forward with my HT after years and years of research. I've been debating whether to do or not to do a HT for quite some time and after browsing these forums for such a long time without contributing anything I've decided to document my process for you guys.
Graft Breakdown
1 Unit: 995
2 Units: 1597
3 Units: 961
4 Units: 69
We did 2100 or so grafts on day one and the remainder on day two.
Why Dr. Bisanga?
I had consultations with many of the top surgeons and traveling was not going to be an issue for me so I definitely had a few options. In the end I decided to go with Dr. Bisanga. Even though I never went in for an in person consultation, Hilde was wonderful throughout the entire process and she helped make my decision in choosing Dr. Bisanga a lot easier. Dr. Bisanga is a wonderful doctor who makes you feel comfortable during your surgery.
Surgery and Clinic
I'm not going to go into detail on the clinic since you guys already know what to expect here. I will say that I was satisfied with the clinic and all the techs were super nice and friendly. The surgery took two days with a total of 3,622 grafts planted. I went back in one more day after the surgery just for a quick checkup and to have my scalp cleaned and I'm on my way back home now.
My Goals
So Dr. B asked me what my goals were before the surgery and I told him that I've seen my hairline go higher and higher over the years and I wanted to bring it back down with lots of density. He drew a hairline for me and I was satisfied so we decided to go with it. I did mention that I want to fill up my crown but Dr. B recommended to wait. The goal for this surgery was to create a brand new hairline, pack up the front and overall reduce the size of my forehead.
I've attached some before and afters and I will make sure to keep you guys posted on the progress.
