That’s great you’ve decided to go with Ted Miln. I am waiting a video consultation with him. Are you getting the procedure in his own practice or in London? What is he charging per graft ? Wish you all the best with your surgery

Hey, I’m from Ireland and have had 2 transplants in Europe. I would like to get my 3rd transplant and wondering if anyone has had any work done in Ireland. Blackrock clinic is way over priced so that is not an option for me. Other clinic here are Tir na Nog clinic and Dr.Anrde Nel. Would love to hear how anyone got on having a transplant in Ireland . Many thanks

My FUT scar is good I never really have my hair that short. A razor 3 on back and side is the lowest I could go. I am considering using some beard grafts for the crown. Around 500 maybe mixed in with 500 hair grafts . Might be an option for me

Hey, I’m 39 and have had 2 hair transplant both in Poland. First one was FUT 1850 grafts and nearly all the grafts when to the front of my scalp and made a massive difference. My second procedure was FUE 1680 grafts and 1000 went into my crown area. I was hoping for a better out come on my crown area. I’m not sure it it failed or not enough grafts were used. I am on rogain and finasteride. I still have to use toppik on the crown which I was hoping I would not . I am considering a third surgery to fill in my crown and maybe drop my hair line slightly. Or leave the front and just concentrate on the crown. I don’t want my donor area to start look sparse. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, I’ve had 2 transplants over the past 5 years. First was fut 1800 grafts placed at the front of my head and am delighted with the results. The second time I went for fue 1600 grafts, 1000 in my crown and 600 to thicken up my front . I’m super happy with the front but not so much on my crown area. Maybe I needed more than 1000 grafts I’m not sure. I will eventually get a third procedure but not for a few years but I am reading up about Smp. I keep my hair at an average length and am just wondering if anyone’s knows if Smp would work on my crown area?? Any advice would be appreciated . Also I am on Finasteride and rogain foam. Thanks

8 month update The crown has gotten a lot thicker over the past 2 months which I’m very happy with. I’ll update at 12 months for final outcome

Hey yes I remember how’s things? Did you go fue or fut? No Saifi never mentioned which direction my hair went but for years I have just brushed my hair to the side , it just kinda falls that way. wishing you all the best over the next few months I hope you will be pleased with the results. It’s a long wait alright I feel your pain but I find the best is just forget you got it done. Don’t be looking everyday for growth as it’s such a slow process. I take a picture every month and follow my progress that way.

Cheers

6 Months Very happy with the front hairline know and the crown is starting to fill in which I’m very happy about. Was a long 6 months but really seeing progress every month now which is great

Cheers Melvin i never actually talked to my doctor about the amounts of grafts left in my donor area if I needed anymore procedures. Would you have a rough estimate ??

Cheers I just had a hair cut the day I took the pictures so I wouldn’t have it shorter then that. But I would usually have it tight enough on the back and sides. the donor area has healed really well I don’t think anyone would know I had work done from my donor area unless I shaved my head of coarse. Here’s a pic of donor area

Cheers I’m happy how things are going . It’s a tough old waiting time but I think it’s to try forget about it for the first few months but I’ve my fingers crossed now

5 month update The first picture was before my first procedure and all other pictures are after my second one. Just hope the crown will thicken up over the next few months. My doctor said to wait till month 8 then I can really see the results

That’s a fair point. After my first op I’d say it was about 3/4 months before I started to see growth. But it was easier to see as I had no hair where it was transplanted .
