  1. Thank you for your posts and updates. When did the swelling start to get bad? And when did it go away ?
  2. Whoa! I am also a San Jose native myself! Born and raised. Moved to Mountain View for work and now in Atlanta also for work. I was really close to picking Diep 👌🏼 as I dated a receptionist there (she was very pushy like an old car salesman) and being so close to Los Gatos. A few hours of research in regards to Diep quickly convinced me to look elsewhere.I see your hair has improved significantly, hoping for the best!!
  3. If you had a chance to do it all over again with Diep would you? Curious why you didn’t go with someone like Rassman or Hassan and Wong.
  4. Ah man!! Thanks I’ll get started on that. Appreciate the heads up.
  5. Thanks! Do you mean start massaging now or wait until I get more swollen? Did you also use an ice pack?
  6. Hey! I just went through your post! I had a chance to “peek” my donor area today and it looks fine. The extraction areas are closing really well. If they remove my covering tomorrow then I will absolutely posts pictures of my donor area.
  7. @jimcraig152thank you so much for your detailed posts. I recently had a procedure done 2 days ago (Konior) and I have not faced anything that you have. The pain that you have been feeling weeks after in your donar area is absolutely concerning to me.
  8. Ha! I had actually shaved my head completely at like 25 for a year. I just got fed up with the maintenance. My family was not very receptive so I grew my hair back.
  9. Hey! Good question, I had to get a haircut every Saturday. As you can imagine $50 all in with a tip for a haircut once a week can get every expensive. After around ten days without a haircut it would look like the first two pictures.
  10. Update for all those asking for pictures of my donor hair: unfortunately I have to have the wrapping on the back of my head for another day. I did get to see the back of my head, and wow it was really hard to find the areas where they grafts were pulled from.
  11. I would encourage you to really research Dr Diep. I know that he is really close to you and I but I would not let that be a factor at all. While I have seen some amazing results by him, I have also seen some bad results. I decided to not consider Diep because If I were to get one of those bad results I’d be incredibly frustrated due to the price. And on top of that he did not seem willing to work with the patients who were not satisfied once he got your money. Hassan and Wong are amazing and I have read about Rahal in Toronto, although I did not really research him in depth.
  12. This is my update on my first day after surgery. Took this after my visit and clean up 🧼
  13. I think the results look good for where you started. However, once I read that you have over 3000 grafts I’m concerned because I’d expect a really nice frontal view of that makes sense.
  14. Thank you, the doctor kept emphasizing that my hair was thick and as a result I should expect a thicker fuller look with his procedure.
  15. Hi ! @aaron1234 thank you for your encouraging words. Yes, it was absolutely a FUE.
  16. I actually just got my procedure done with Konior yesterday!! Yes, the waitlist and price is crazy. Here are my comments around my experience with Konior.
  17. Hey boss @forge3012 I am also from the west coast. San Francisco to be exact, is there a reason why you are limiting your options to that area? I just got my procedure done with Dr. Konior, who has been nothing short of incredible, he is in Chicago so around a 4-5 hour flight.
  18. I’ll try to posts my updates here but will probably be better if you follow me on Reddit or YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7fY5O5fDmxoh1NlxP7Cppg
