    I think Yaman has shown some great work with the odd questionable result. But that’s true of any surgeon. I also like Gur and Pekineer (if you can find him).

    Once they have given you the number of grafts then I would prepay nearly all of it. Open an account like Wise which has good exchange rates. Less stress for you once you’re there so you can focus on the surgery, etc. All the best.

    I respect your decision to not want to try a 5ari. However as a Norwood 6 you want to stabilize your donor from further loss going into a transplant. If you do feel you’re getting side effects you can cease the medication. It’s only my opinion nothing more. Look at surgeons who do great work in Norwood 6 patients and understand donor management. All the best.

    The texture and quality of a scar continues to improve, albeit somewhat subtly, for years.

    @Diff-thinner their is nothing to worry about at all. At two weeks hairs will be falling out and this can last for two months. It's just part of the process. Think how you'll look in 12 months! 💯👌

    Wow Addy! Only five months and your coverage and growth density has increased dramatically since month four alone! You have many months ahead of you which is incredible. Get ready to handle the coveted 2024 Best Hair Transplant of the Year! 🏆💯👌

    As a very ‘rough’ rule of thumb it takes about 1,000 grafts per Norwood level. From Norwood 5 onwards I would increase that to 1,500 at least. For the number of grafts I think this is a good result. 👌

    Donor looks great and the work looks very clean. 👌

    @davidmcvicker if you feel you received no benefits from Finasteride do you mean your hair loss continued? How long were you on Finasteride? If your hair loss didn’t improve but your hair loss remained stable then the drug is working. Just curious. Yes as @Berba11 stated that green hairline would look regretful and would also waste too many grafts that you could benefit with keeping. All the best. 👍

    Yes I would attribute this to oral minoxidil by the sounds of it. It can take up to one year to see the peak benefits of oral minoxidil so it will be interesting to see your full benefits in time. All the best.

    @HatMaster this is an incredible result.
  12. Gatsby
    I still can't believe @captaincalico how 'natural and full' your results are. In fact I can't believe from where you started from! 💯👌

    @Random27 I think month two is the hardest place in the ugly duckling period. However hair is growing out in your small spots of shock loss. It takes time not just for the hair to grow but also for the scalp to bounce back. All the best.
  14. Gatsby
    @Matt Kheder that certainly is a natural looking result. How many grafts?
  15. Gatsby
    Great result @Homesteader 👌
  16. Gatsby
    Great coverage @Ollie Goodwin and very clean work. 👌
  17. Gatsby
    Your hair is looking very full and dense bro. 💯👌
  18. Gatsby
    @GeneralNorwood if we had known you were going we could have all made up our list of questions to ask! 😜 The wait will be truly worth it. Time flies and you’re going to who many believe are the best! Wishing you all the best! 💯👊🏻

    Six weeks post op HT3 Six weeks weeks has passed since I had 800 scalp and 400 hundred beard grafts transplanted into the crown. I am truly in the bowels of the big ugly duck 🫣🦆 I’ll hang onto the mullet (why not) and color and trim my hair at three months. This third post op period has definitely felt like the longest one by a country mile.
  20. Gatsby
    @xXFOLICILEDOMINIONXx you are just over six months. It can be a real roller coast ride right up to 10-12 months. Slow and steady wins the race. 👌
  21. Gatsby
    I think you will find that after topical finasteride, the drop off to using topical Saw Palmetto is quite a difference.
  22. Gatsby
    Looking great @Jamos1982. 👌
  23. Gatsby
    @Cyzkm your hair will not fall out from this product.
  24. Gatsby
    I’m not a doctor but there is no evidence of DUPA in the photos you have posted @Recession1. Actually can you post blocked out pics of your hair front on? I can’t even imagine you being a Norwood 3 by those pics either?
  25. Gatsby
    All the best @Tomneeds123. I like the design and look forward to seeing your updates!
