  1. I am with you guys definitely will avoid strip. I may look to dr Pekiner in Turkey.
  2. Update: I had a great consultation with Dr. Dorin. he confirmed my hair transplant was not done to par. He said he would go for 1000-1200 fue. He said it would be used in area above hairline- where you can see major density difference between top and transplant area. Only thing option I have for fixing hairline Density is strip. Then would have the scar. inwas informed my donor area was over harvested from first transplant. If I go further it will look patchy at donor area. it’s tough news, I am saving money to have dr dorin fix it up. Won’t be major difference. Do not take a referal without really researching on your own. Even if you are extremely close to person referral. Do.Your.Homework . This forum use it, ask questions, listen. I’ll update you when I schedule next procedure! Thanks for all feedback so far ! best Dan
  3. I am thinking about Pekiner as well. Would you be able to send a link to reach him or his website. I don’t trust my google search. Hope it’s going well!
  4. I will post some updates pics. It’s still thin when pushed back, still have to use the sprinklies to make it look denser. if True Dorin tell me 1000-1200 is what I need that would be amazing. I hope your right about that. I hope my donor area has enough to support whatever is needed to reach my goals. I really look forward to continuing this journey and improving the density.
  5. I guess on second thought - that might not be true as I have never tried the plasma- and a number of other possibilities. It seems to me that hair transplant is the best solution.
  6. Hi Stephcurry30- Yes, I have been taking finasteride for many years. I have used minoxidil rogain foam for last 4 years. Finasteride slowed my hair loss, some regrowth- it did not fully stop the hair loss. Rogain helped thicken crown area did nothing for hairline- my hair feels healthier when I use Rogain. Definitely thicker. Though when I first started Rogain there was initial shedding (which is expected). Hair transplant is the only way to go to really see regrowth
  7. This is great, your results are excellent. I have an appointment with Dr. Dorin on the 31st ! It seems you are very satisfied with the results too. Thanks for sharing your journey !
  8. Hi there, It has been exactly 3 years since my 1400 FUE transplant. I have another virtual appointment with Dorin on the 31st that was booked today. For some reason or another that appointment never came to fruition in 2021. I will let you know what True and Dorin prognosis is then.
  9. Thanks for the details of those great docs BigMike. Much appreciated. Good advice if I have to get to NYC I’ll definitely take the Acela. Have you guys heard of Now Hair Time - they are located in Turkey. I am going to send them some photos to see what their analysis is and what they would do for the next procedure. I will look into Dorin as well as mentioned before. have to thank this community for following my journey and giving me feedback honestly. It definitely makes the process easier knowing others out there who have your back.
  10. Hi all! it’s been a long time since I have updated this thread. Balding Bad great name firstly. Thanks for following the journey, I hope it helped in some way. I have not had another procedure yet, nor have I had a consultation. I believe True & Dorin will be next stop. I have to contact them to set up a meeting. I am not sure when I will have the next procedure. Probably within the next 6 months. Of course I have some updated photos to share. Nothing much has changed- I do need a haircut to clean up the look- it usually looks much better after the cut. I am definitely going to finish the procedure and will update when the next phase of the journey begins. Like before I’ll go through the entire process from consult to day of, recovery and results. all the best!
  11. 1 year ago today I finished my FUE 1400 grafts. Started at 8:00am, finished at 4 or so. Thought I would be back at work after a week off- then lock down hit. Good timing for the transplant 😂 - This was procedure 1 of a discussed two part process spaced a year apart. - the first 6 months of the ugly duckling phase was brutal. It looks better now than before. It’s still incomplete so I feel I have not fully exited the ugly duckling phase just yet - I have not had a fresh cut in a month, I will post update with a cut soon. - these pictures of hair with 5% Minoxidil Foam product on scalp. If you have used it you know it can make hair look dry/clumpy. I combed the hair which helps. a link to short video combing hair back: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LQhLkyk5ss85W3ugC3MNhHK4k2G7tXfX/view?usp=drivesdk Hope all are well!
  12. Thanks for the input fellas ! I’ll post a pic with hair pulled back and other updates. It’s crazy to think I will be at the 1 year mark on the 10th if this month! So far seems consensus of feedback is that definitely should get a second procedure, add to density. Idea of addressing the temple points as well as density. The yield is good for the amount of grafts however that’s the silver hair-lining of this. I appreciate all the comments and guidance. I have not had any consults or tried to fully research a second surgery yet but it’s something I want to do! Finish the job I started just about a year ago. Time flies. One year results on the 10th 🙌🏻💪🏻Curious as to what you guys think hope you’re all safe and well! Thanks again
  13. Hey! Long time no update. This what we have at month 10. no fibers in haircut coming Friday. Will update after a fresh cut. hope everyone is safe and well💪🏻
  14. Thanks Melvin wouldn’t mind a trip to nyc. I’ll pay more for a reputable place. There is a global pandemic- until that vaccine is out and tested- I’m not going to turkey or Europe. I can drive to New York take about 4 hours or so.
