Hi @S Kumar, How was your HT experience at Medispa with Dr. Suneet ? Can you please post your before and after pics here? Thanks.

Hi @thappa, Thanks for sharing your updates. Its disappointing that you didn't get the expected results but it depends on patient to patient how you will heal. I am no expert so can't comment on what to do next, but I hope upon your next visit you will discuss in detail with him. I would suggest go through below study to "Determine the Efficacy of Topical Minoxidil plus Micro-needling/derma-roller versus Topical Minoxidil Alone". https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30886475 I have been following Medispa for about an year or so and I was impressed and convinced to go with him (next year may be) when I visit India. However I came across this platform few week ago and I have seen some bad reviews about Medispa which has influenced my decision a bit (not completely). I had a telephonic conversation with Him recently and since my grade of blandess is 5. So for me combination of FUT + FUE along with TRICHOPHYTIC closure is suggested.

I found one study to Determine the Efficacy of Topical Minoxidil plus Micro-needling/derma-roller versus Topical Minoxidil Alone. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30886475

True and rightly said @LaserCap @nordicwarrior Here is the video which of how the scars of FUT and FUE looks like and it also depends on patient to patient.

Thanks everyone for your responses and providing helpful information. Meantime will continue using Minoxidil Rogaine Foam with Derma-roller and keep updating my results. Baat to sahi h @Sean 😊 BTW, I found this video which of how the scars of FUT and FUE looks like and it also depends on patient to patient.

@filthiestfish if you are looking for Combo FUT + FUE then there is another doctor whom I have been following from few months and results are very good. Check @Dr. Suneet Soni from Medispa clinic in India.

Hello @Dr. Suneet Soni, Amazing work and Great results. Curios to know that 4300 grafts were implanted in one session only?

Amazing results @win200. As you had two strip / FUT surgery, I am also curios to see how the donor area and the scar looks like with this short haircut. It will also clear my doubts. Cheers.

Sure, will wait for your post 👍. I have created post with my current pics, looking for suggestions or advise from people

Hi @paddyirishman, What grade of Baldness you had ? Can you also share your post of before and after the transplant? Thanks.

Thanks for your reply @Sean and @LaserCap. This is the dilemma I have, Indeed FUT can yeild more grafts than FUE and even though "Trichophytic Closure" is performed Scar will be visible if I want to keep very Guard 2 or 3 haircut. The reason you are seeing miniaturizing hair because I have been using Derma-roller (micro-needling) On & Off since 1-2 years along with Abott CG210. After reading few posts and seeing few videos about Minoxidil, from this week I started using Minoxidil 5% Rogaine Foam based 2 times a day along with Derma-roller, I will continue using it for 3-4 months. Let's see how this therapy works on Me. BTW, here are some more pics from around July 2015.

Hello, how are you all doing? I am new to the forum and started following it for 3 weeks only. I wish that I would have known about this forum earlier but rightly said better late than never. Here is my short story about my baldness. I started loosing hair at around 18-19 years of age (it wasn’t that much then) with receding hairline and then gradually increased which affected my look and confidence (I started looking 5-10 years older than my actual age). I am currently 29 years old and this is my current situation (photos taken 2 weeks ago). Looks like NW-5. BTW I have never taken any meds like Finasteride/Minoxidil. Just taking Biotin capsules and doing Derma roller (micro-needling) regularly along with CG210 hair spray. But now I am almost convinced that Hair Transplant is the only way to get the desired look and results so from last 1 and half years I started my research about Hair Transplant. After shortlisting couple of clinics, I have contacted them (I don’t want to reveal their names) and recommended different technique for HT: 1. Recommendation from Clinic 1: 4000 grafts can be extracted safe donor zone using combined FUT + FUE technique with “Trichophytic Closure” method. 2. Recommendation from Clinic 2: 4000 grafts cab be extracted, 3000 grafts from scalp safe donor area + 1000 grafts from Beard using only FUE technique (as my donor area is weak) Now I have few queries and concerns regarding the techniques recommended by each clinic for HT: 1. I have learnt that FUT leaves linear scar on your scalp but if done with “Trichophytic Closure” which leaves almost negligible or minimal scar at donor site and hair can again grow from Scar. I want to understand and know the reviews of this technique from the people that how true is it and can you keep very short hair after FUT?? 2. I also understood that FUE also leaves very minimal scar but not as visible as FUT, So what are your reviews on results of using scalp and Beard grafts for HT. I wanted to keep the post short, but anyways I appreciate your time and looking forward for your response on this. Thanks and have a good day.
