I'm with @Melvin- Admin, I wouldn't reccomend another HT, your hair looks perfect. If you'll fill that small area, there's a good chance you'll feel the new result won't be homogenous enough and not because the clinic did a bad job, you'll need to do 55-60 grafts per cm to make that risk smaller. That square draw won't give you a natural hairline at all, it's even aggressive for women's HT pattern, unless is that what you're aiming for.

It depending on the quality of the donor, some candidates are eligible for 6000+ giga sessions under 3 days surgery in a single visit. At HDC we specializes withFUE procedures since 2003, and in the recent years we perform successful giga sessions without overharvesting the donor, additionally we treat with 4 days post op care with washing and cleaning both donor and recipient area so the grafts will be absorbed before the patient depart back home.

Around 4500-5000+ grafts for full coverage with good density. Very good donor, this full coverage job can be done under 3 days of surgery.

Back head donor has most of the multi grafts, the sides have more single grafts, however it varies between every patient. As mentioned above, at HDC clinic we also split double grafts to singles under microscopes.

Here is my 2 months video update:

Lol! Spot on! My favorite live action movie (1984) I should say to all botched candidates by mills "Come with me if you want to live😎"

Actually on my 1st repair of my frontal area I had that "ugly duck" season go through, the 2nd repair was easier, and now I felt from the start like I have no trauma at all. BTW, your transformation is superb 👍🏻

Thank you, I wish I could play tennis the same😅

I think a podcast of repairs can be helpful, from my experience every repair has a different approach with unique strategy

Thanks, it was a resurrection 😅

Better if you can grow your hair for 3-4 weeks to get a better estimation. Seems like blonde thin hair, for good density you'll need as mentioned above 5000-6000 grafts for frontal and middle scalp, crown can be done 2nd procedure, if you have good beard it will make the density better in the middle scalp and crown. At HDC clinic we specializes with candidates that has thin blonde hair, you can check our reviews here and contact my WhatsApp if you interested in consultation with us. This is a case of our patient @Barney blonde thin candidate, he has also his own thread, this is our thread:

I agree. Our default at HDC is to offer this "balanced" donor as a default solution for candidates that were botched by hair mills and bad doctors, by only make ecstatic punch repair job, the patient will have easier and more affordable way to make his donor more homogenous, transplanted grafts to the donor can be considered and discussed for personal assessments.

Thank you guys for your support, it's definitely a nice way to start 2024🎊🥳

Yes indeed! My donor is balanced now and still good to use if I'll want to do another HT in the future, let's hope it's my final dance 😄

Post 2 months result, I want to focus on my healing process healing here: My donor area recovering very fast clean and sharp. My scalp donor from the letral humps, behind the ears, and upper sides beard look barely touched. Receipt area has no redness at all, I feel very confident like I had no procedure, can't wait to update with new hairs over the crown and frontal touch up😉

Merry Christmas and best wishes to all 🎄

Good candidate with good healthy donor, you have Caucasian curly hair that won't be hard to punch which means you can have a big session without overharvesting, in the long hair photos you look NW3, with shaved around NW4, seems you'll be at least NW5 in the future. HDC clinic is in Cyprus which isn't far from Turkey and Greece,if you interested with consultation, you're welcome to contact my WhatsApp, our price range is between 2.4€-2.2€ per graft, the price includes our free accommodations.

@yatite how many days of surgery you had?

Norwood 5 that will be 6, but we don't see your donor

I'm a patient coordinator at HDC Hair Clinic from Cyprus, I only reccomend where I had my HTs, also it would be biased to share opinions on others. I had 3 repair procedures by HDC because in 2018 I had my first horrific hair transplant experience by Arenamed clinic in Turkey Istanbul, a cheap hair mill that was overpriced and marked as pro line segment clinic by Israeli agency that I sued and still in court process, you can read about this in my old threads. Anyway, you need to be careful from cheap hair mills or bad doctors that will say they'll do anything just to get your money. To be honest, I reviewed your thread and I can certainly say you don't need a hair transplant procedure right now, you need to be at least Norwood 3, you're barely maybe started be Norwood 2, the red hairline mark in your picture will give you unnatural hairline, you have a natural very low hairline and making it lower will start the new growth over your forehead muscle which is unnatural, the temples not deep enough yet. Your beard is fine, there's no point doing any procedure.

@Moshico18 Cobbelstoning is cause from placing the grafts not deep enough, hence you'll get the "blub" spots visible, or the clinic didn't spread and clean the tissue from the grafts. This is common by cheap hair mills and bad doctors.

Thank you. Yes, the clinic use beard grafts for vertex on regularbasis, I myself had some beard grafts on my last session. Chest on very rare occasions, most candidates don't have suitable chest grafts, it's only used as a last resort in complicated cases. You're welcome to contact my WhatsApp for consultation with HDC.

Finasteride blocking DHT, while Minoxidil boost your blood supply, so yes the combination is better.

Stay on meds and don't think about getting HT now, you need to wait more years...

In general the meds and extra treatments like iprf won't change the quality of the surgery, however some minority candidates with diffused pattern or weak donor need to consume Finasteride and Minoxidil 6-12 months before surgery so the donor be stronger with more vitality to the grafts so they'll survive and absorb more, they also need to continue with the meds after surgery. So in general you can achieve good results without meds, but meds can significantly boost your result and make it more impressive and sustainable. I myself didn't use any meds after my 1st repair at HDC for my frontal area, I started using topical formula of Finasteride mixed with Minoxidil after my 2nd repair (crown mainly), so I personally prefer and advice considering using meds after surgery.
