  1. Yikes 😳 Nadar’s prices have sky rocketed 🚀 OP best of luck to you 🙏
  2. Surgery Date: October 8th 2020 Punchsize: .85mm Treated areas: Front, Top, Crown Price 1.25 per graft Medication: Fin (2+ years) Supplement: Biotin (started a month after surgery) Minoxidil: No This forum has helped me so it’s only fitting I write up a decent and honest review of my experience. When looking for a doctor I was looking for one one in my budget as well as a doctor who put out consistent results. Doctor Demirsoy checked off a few of my boxes with budget, consistency, as well as performing most of the surgery. Also what stood out was he does one surgery a day and has been doing this for over 20 years. I knew going into this more then likely I wasn’t going to get mind blown results. For starters most of my work was being done on the hairline and he’s far from being a hairline king. He’s also very conservative with his hairline approach a little bit to much for my personal liking but I did speak to him before his surgery and told him exactly what I wanted. Also most of his results aren’t over the top amazing. There consistent but most are not grand slam caliber. When drawing the hairline Demirsoy drew up a very conservative hairline and I was like yeah I didn’t travel all the way here for my hairline barely to move. He lowered the hairline and I told him I wanted a rounded hairline no V shape. He made some adjustments I noticed that the marker was a little bit off on one side but I assumed that would be corrected. Instead of a high dense pack hairline, he recommended it to be spread out so I don’t have areas of my hair being inconsistent in terms of density which made sense. Surgery went fine nothing really to report. After surgery I went to use the bathroom I noticed that my left side of the hairline/temple was un-even. I told the doctor as well as his assistant and he pretty much dismissed it quickly. Didn’t even check. He said it’s from the swelling. I took the doctor’s word and didn’t push it any further. After a few weeks go by and the swelling is gone can’t help to notice the uneven hairline. I reached out to the doctors assistant he tried explaining it but I wasn’t really buying what he said. Some will say natural hairlines are a lot of times uneven. Which is true however I’m paying for this and I didn’t want a uneven hairline. With one side rounded and the other one not. It bothered me still does but no point of getting annoyed over spilled milk as there were other issues to follow. Anyway then came the waiting game. During this time I suffered and I mean SUFFERED from Neuralgia. Wow barely could sleep. Barely could get comfortable. Shock waves thru my body. This lasted about 2-3 weeks. If your experiencing this. Take B3 vitamins. I was using baby shampoo and then switched to Nizoral because the dandruff was intensifying. This stuff works immediately. My dandruff was gone in just a matter of a week or two. I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. From first pre surgery to currently. Majority of pictures are taken with me coming out of the shower so my hair is wet. Maybe I was expecting too much from one surgery? I don’t know I’ve seen post with people with a lot less hear getting much better results. Maybe I thought I had a more hair then I really did have? Maybe I needed a second surgery regardless? Or is doctor Demirsoy just a mediocre doctor with Mediocre results? This was doctor Demirsoy response as I was not pleased with the density in the front. “ The donor area hairs can be effected from dht. The low yield can be low because of this .after the transfer of the hairs it can be that some of the hairs not survive .Under the skin sometimes can be a lower blood circulation which not support the transplanted grafts 100%. it must be thicken on a second surgery ,he can help you by making a second session . Sometimes finasteride not works 100% and it can be that the hair loss still continue .If you wouldn’t use probably the hair loss would continue rapidly. The front can be thicken on a second session .It is possible to increase the density on a second session. “ I didn’t even respond back. Would never go back.
  3. My donor looked great. I didn’t have any concerns in regards to the pain until the 4 or 5th day in my donor area. I started to get concerned because my donor looked too normal for me to be in the pain that I was in. Thats when I was aware that this was neuralgia that I was experiencing. Some of the worst sleepless nights of my life. I thought my head was going to fall off. It lasted for a long week and a half. i still have mild symptoms but nowhere near as before. Even though the pain started to wear off I started taking B Complex yesterday just to make sure this doesn’t come back. Pain was so bad I’m not even sure if I would want to do another surgery if needed down the road. One member on here had it by it a few years. I couldn’t imagine going through life waking up everyday like that.
  4. The response I was looking for. Thank You i have been applying cold aloe Vera (plant) to my donor area. At times I almost feel after applying it that my head has a buzzing feel to it. The other night was some wild shit, I had no idea what was going on.
  5. Yea but after a week there all gone. Just trying to see whether this is common and how long it last for.
  6. 8th Day in and passed few nights I’m experiencing some crazy pain in my donor area. The way I can best describe it as pins and needles sticking me or someone constantly poking me. Especially when I lay down to go to bed at night I feel it the most since I’m putting pressure on the donor area. is this normal and how long does this last?
  7. Thanks. 4 days FUE Just minor swelling and obviously itchy as hell. Thanks again for the help.
  8. Thanks I actually did that and didn’t have a reaction at all. Just want to make sure not to put something on the graphs that could potentially damage them.
  9. Thanks for the advice. I’ll look into the olive oil. in regards to aloe Vera Gel or the Aloe Vera Juice are both safe to use?
  10. is 99% Aloe Vera Juice bad after a few days after surgery to contain the itching? I would probably feel more comfortable spraying a midst over the recipient and donor area as opposed to putting a gel on but figured I’d ask.
  11. Covid has really made this so much more frustrating. My original appointment was back in April and my flight got canceled. i rescheduled for October. Now I found out the other day from the airlines that my departing flight leaves first thing in the morning instead of much later in the evening. this throws a huge wrench into the post op visit. I reached out to the doctor and he said that he will go over everything with me before surgery in regards to the post op visit and a few days after surgery to remove the bandages. He said it’s been done before by other patients. I just wanted to see if anyone else has had any experience or knows the extent of how important the post op visit really is. Also obviously if I can’t make the post op visit should I ask for money off the surgery? Also I really don’t want to rebook. I’ve taken off 2 weeks of work for this and rather just get it over with instead of keep putting it off and rescheduling for something else to come up. any help would be appreciated.
