Thanks for the updated pictures. It looks like you’ve not had any shedding or maybe the lighting is playing tricks on us.

Do you see any new growth ??

Minimal shedding, new growth is happening but new hairs are thin as of now. I guess next 2 months I can experience a lot of growth considering I didn't shed much

Loadrunner what were you on the Norwood scale? I know that results appear a lot earlier with Eugenix. Your results already look fantastic so imagine when you get to the 10-12 month mark!!!!!! You could always have SMP for any area that is patchy from your previous procedure.

 

I might be around nowood 3 vertex or 4 maybe. But I have seen absolutely wonderful results for norwood 6/7 cases as well. Their YouTube has so many results ans on the forum u need to check the results of @harin and @Zoomster and @RR1 to name a few. I am sure you will be well taken care of since they have been handling a lot of such cases

I have made contact with Eugenix Hair Sciences also. I have spoken with both Dr Pradeep and Dr Arika. I am 53 years of age. At 18!!!!!!! I had not one but two punch graft procedures to lower my hairline. One year later I had the frontal plugs removed in several excision strip like procedures. This left me with a permanent lateral scar across the top of my hairline. By 25 my hair loss had continued so I began wearing a hair piece. This not only covered the MPB but it also covered the frontal scar. After 25 years of wearing a 'wig' I couldn't do it any more. I then found a great SMP artist and had SMP to help camouflage the donor scars and the hairline scar. This was three years ago.

It's great not having to worry about hair but I am extremely self conscious of the scars which you can still see (but much less than before SMP). However I am seriously considering having a scalp/beard hair transplant. If this could get me beyond my self consciousness of my scars I believe I would finally feel free. I'll put some photos up. Thanks for listening!

You made a great choice. I had thoroughly researched eugenix before selecting them. With the kind of results they have been producing u can be rest assured. All the best!

@Loadrunner we would love to see some updates.

@Pyrat and others 

11 weeks update.

Not much shedding, hairs slowing growing but the hairline is thin as of now. I have not taken any haircuts and will take one post the lockdown. It should look much better with trimmed sides. I am expecting good results towards 4 month mark like most eugenix cases. I am taking finax for my crown. No minox or anything else with normal shampooing.

Day 46 Update:

I have not experienced a lot of sheeding, maybe 10-20 pc and now am eagerly waiting for the hairs to grow and I am hopeful Of getting early results considering I didn't shed much. I am taking finasteride which seems to be helping(not on minoxidil). Donor area has recovered to normal with no signs now.

I totally agree with Melvin, why will a unhappy patient endorse the clinic. I was totally unsatisfied with my first clinic. My experience with Eugenix- has been good till now. If I get the results as per my expectation, I will definitely have a soft corner for them. As of now, I can say that I hardly found any bad results from eugenix during my research- and hence I went ahead with them and they treat their patient's very well.

Did your previous clinic perform some type of long hair donor extraction? It looks like they extracted fue grafts in certain strips

I was more worried how will the donor react post this procedure but things look good

Yes, it was no shave fue but I guess because of that I can't keepbhair shorter than 3/4 guard else I have to do smp. But I normally keepvit at 4 which works for me

Update: 1 month 

I have noticed 10-15 percent shedding. Hairs have started growing. Hoping for an early result. Donor has recovered well.

Hello,

 

Thank you. I've got 425 singles implanted on my hairline this time.

Any specific reason, I feel your hair looks great as it is.

You are right, Melvin. Eugenix has 3 levels, or packages, of services. The most expensive is with Dr. Sethi or Dr. Bansal doing the planning and design of hairline and doing the slits themselves. The next level has Dr. Bansal doing the above only. The least expensive package has one of Eugenix associate doctors providing this service.

That is correct just that first option has both Dr pradeep and dr arika while the second one has dr arika doing slits. Third package is other doctors but I guess here we are talking about top 2 packages because the forum recommends surgeons and not clinics

Hi,

You can check my thread, there are thre strips from my previous fue if the hair are cut too short because of concentrated extraction. I was very scared about what might happen to my donor if I gi for another transplant. Post my procedure with Eugenix- it seems to be coming well. Zero percent shock loss. For the growth, I can only comment post 4-5 months( currently 25 days post op) but there has been only 10-15 percent shed owing to less time outside due to DHT technique and no root touch and the grafts are directly growing. I will attach my latest donor picture. This is only post 25 days. Do see my post op pics in my thread. As for the involvement, slits are sone by dr pradeep and dr arika along with crucial parts of extraction and some part of hairline implantation. I guess their success is more due to the excellent team and the assistant doctors are superb who have perfected the steps they are doing. The success ratio has been close to 99-100 percent which gave me the confidence of going ahead with them.

@Melvin-Moderator keen to know how was your meeting with dr sethi

Day 15 Update:

No shedding till now. Things look ok. Hairs are growing slowly though. Will update at 1 month now.

Dr. Ferreira recommends to use Dermmatch from week 4, basically now. I had quite a lot of shedding on the hairline, so not sure how it will look. I might try and see!

Let me know if it works fine for you. I am thinking of using from next week

1800-2000 grafts. But to protect your existing hair in between and back you might need to start finasteride or the hairs might keep on shedding. Please take multiple doctor views on this. I got similar work done from eugenix- recently and have started finasteride.

@Fluffhead how is the growth going. Did you undergo heavy shedding?

Day 10 update:

Things looking good as of now. No itching, pain in recipient and donor area. Very slight redness in recipient area which should go away with time. Now, hoping I don't shed much but in all probability will.

That's why I'm concerned about dermmatch! But I think it would look much better with buzzed hair...

Yep, email sent to Dr. Ferreira!

Does it actually work with hair fibres to attach to short hair and be relatively invisible?

Do update in case he recoends using dermmatch after 3 weeks

Hey,

i had forgotten about this post so didn’t update. I have gotten great results. Around 5 months now but I hit this mark around the 4 month mark. 

 

If this is 4 months by now you would have thickened further in the front. This is going to be a great result.

Have been researching for a few years now. The doctors i have mentioned above seen to be the best in this field. Haven’t found anyone in india who can match upto there standards. 
But i am still open to options. 

You can consider a premium option with Eugenix involving both Dr. Pradeep and Dr. Arika. They have been producing great results.

I’ve used toppling in the past and it can get messy but this was on the top of the scalp.

I’ve never heard of people using it on the donor, in guessing it is going to come off easily even with the hold spray. Best option especially if you keep your hair short on the back and sides is to maybe get SMP done but be careful as there are some dodgy SMP clinics out there. 

No I normally don't cut it below no 4 and it used to be fine at that level. I was more concerned about next 2 weeks since I'll be joining office next week and I thought if there can be an interim solution till hairs grow

How many grafts were taken in the previous surgeries?

What I wanted to know was do people use toppik on donor. Does it work, I want to use for maybe 2 weeks till it grows.

Around 1300, it's more about concentrated extraction which was done at richfeel in my first surgery so anything below guard 3 and lightness appears. Anycase I don't keep my hair that short otherwise in future if i want to cut it that short then smp is an option. Otherwise the donor is good as you can see from my preop pic and Dr. Arika said my donor is good for another 3k grafts though I am not sure on that.
