Hi Guys,
I took the plunge recently and had a FUE hair transplant through Dr Ismail Ugratdar. Not a renowned HT surgeon on this forum at all compared to other more commonly know surgeons, however I had come across some good accounts/experiences which convinced me to go ahead with Dr Ish.
When I arrived at the clinic I was welcomed by a member of Dr Ish’s team. I then had a review of my hairline with Dr Ish and we agreed the best and most natural hair line for what I wanted to achieve.
We then commenced the hair shaving, done by one of the technicians (Kate) and then I got ready for the extraction phase. I was really worried about the anaesthesia as I have a fear of needles. As promised, Dr Ish used ‘baby needles’ which were hardly noticeable. Approximately 2300 grafts were extracted as the Dr felt that would be sufficient for the hairline I wanted and to achieve a densely packed front.
Dr Ish then made the incisions at the recipient area which again was surprisingly (for me) painless. We then took a lunch break before the implanting of the grafts which was carried out by the techs. All in all I was really impressed by Dr Ish and his calm demeanour and his tech team. I’m now hoping for the results that I committed to a HT for - fingers crossed! I’ll keep posting regular updates tracking progress...
