yes cap i saw urs. thats when i felt mine was ok as u have settled with this no inspite of having a great donor and less number of extraction. mine had 268 in one side and 220 on the other side. yes, even a minimal success will change my looks as i had totally weird frontal hairline especially last couple of yrs.

thanku so much john. it has boosted my confidence 🙏

thanku so much. hoping for the best. and about the punch size, will update u shortly. too technical for me 😀. maybe @Captain Haddock will have an immediate answer for this!@Captain Haddock

haha cap is it. thanku sonmuch. it was Dr's design and she said its good to have decent temples which will sharpen the look. coming to urs, i just cant wait to see urs. it will be one of the best as its more of a perfecto HT. i was just checking abt temples.do u feel there is decent grafts there?

haha thanku so much john. and they said among 268 beard grafts 130-135 were doubles. is that a good sign?

Thanku so much SLA. yea will be patient atleast for 8-9 months. dont wanna see the mirror before that 😀

lil late about the day 2. yesterday had a 6 hour session. with another 1300+ grafts placed in mid scalp, temples and rest for the patches in front line and crown. final total was 4072 grafts with 3812 from donor and 260 from beard. around 450 grafts were used for temples. felt the outcome is pretty decent. when i started researching abt HT before few months, all my expectations were to have a decent hairline covering the baldness. so will stick to that expectation though the final seems to be dense as of now.

yes john. just 4 hrs more 😀

thanku so much john. thats a positive thing to hear it from u 🙏

yes john. what do u think about the proceeding after seeing the pics?!

Pics immediately after day 1 session

Hi, an update from Day 1 Initially by 9.45am, had a short chat with Dr.Arika bansal regarding the hairline design. she said i would require around 4000 grafts and can cover the whole area with a good density. She also mentioned abt the very good donor part i have which is an added advantage the Procedure. My head size is also favourable for the procedure is what dr said. the procedure started by 10.30am and it started with several injections of local anaesthesia. It was kinda painful and trust me, the only part where i felt it. by 11.45am, Dr.Arika Bansal came and started with initial slits. It was around 2400. Then her team began the extraction and plantation simultaneously by 12.45pm and it went down till 4pm where we stopped for lunch. Had a frequent visits from Dr and Anil. then again by 4.30pm, Dr.Arika bansal proceeded with another 1400 slits which brings the total number of slits to 3800. Then it was a mini marathon session of 5-6 hrs till 11pm. Initially it was planned upto 2400 but as i was ok with the proceedings, they extended the session and the final tally was 2740. It ended around 10.30pm and rest is left for today. Dr and staffs were very courteous and checked abt pain and proceedings frequently. Nearly 1990 grafts were transplanted in the frontal hairline and around 750 in the crown. Balance 1300 grafts will be used for temple regions, mid scalp and crown/frontal touchups. i personally feel i had a very good day and excited about the results. i am posting this around 4am with negligible pain and just that i am over cautious abt the transplanted area touching anything 😀.

sure John. will update by evening. 😀

hi just an update. my procedure is today and tomorrow (31st/1st). had a reschedule and in the clinic already. waiting for the discussion with dr.arika regarding the procedure. will keep u guys posted. slightly nervous regarding the pain and anaesthesia but excited too.😁

will update the pics regularly. thanku so much!!! @kirkland

surely. thanku so much for ur wishes!

She told me that i have a pretty decent donor area. so it will be decided on the previous day i suppose. maybe around 1000 grafts is my guess. will be decided on the previous day. thanku so much for ur wishes!

When i posted abt HT and eugenix, u were one among the few to reply immediately in that thread. thanku so much @Gatsby. i really wish you to get your transplant done very soon at eugenix! thanku

once again, thanku so much john. will surely update regularly!

thanku so much Gabreille. 😇

haha yes. and i hope 2021 is a good one! ☺️

Have been following this forum just for few months. I have been gradually losing my hair for the past 10 years and now Iam NW5. I consulted almost all the top clinics in india and few online sessions from turkey too. I met Dr.Pradeep Sethi at bangalore in a meet&greet session through Anil. I hardly had few minutes and i wasnt able to decide about anything. Cant blame him really as it wasnt a private session. Then i contacted Anil and went to their Gurugram clinic in person before few days. Had a consulation with Dr.Arika for few minutes and i was really convinced after that. She answered my questions patiently and explained everything in detail. I took couple of days to decide about the dates as i was contemplating to do it in march because i have my sister's wedding in feb. But decided to take it now as i have almost 50 days for the wedding. One thing i liked about Eugenix is that they arent pushy like many other top clinics in india. That gave me a positive feeling. @Abhinay Singh (during the consultation) and Anil were really helpful and they were patient enough to explain everything. Now my dates are locked. Its jan-2nd/3rd and thats the earliest date i got when i decided abt this before couple of weeks. I am slightly nervous and excited at the same time. I was really confused before few days. Had a chat with @JohnAC71 and @Captain Haddockregarding the procedure. they were exceptionally helpful regarding my decision. had a brief chat with @juanjs84 about His HT at Eugenix. will update everything regarding the procedure frequently. fingers crossed!

the hair line finesse looks excellent! cant wait to see your results!

sure i will. yes they have three packages...one with designing alone with dr.bansal and the next one is complete procedure by her and the premium one involves dr.sethi too. i just want to know whether the first two packages can provide the same same result as what the premium with dr. sethi does. i know there will be a difference surely. but if i can get 75% of that in other two packages then i would opt for them immediately.

hi, thanku john,gatsby for ur replies. eugenix is great i heard but slightly expensive too. so just want to know about other options too. can u help me with it!?
