    Looking really good. Congrats mate. Gotta say, 1000 grafts a day is reassuring as a patient. Hope you hit a home run.

    Well I'm sure the travel corridors will ease by March 25th, but as of now only essential travel seems to be allowed. There's also hotel quarantine to those who return to the UK. Not really a great time for international travel tbh. Perhaps you could postpone it by a couple of months.

    Had one of my singles at the front growing all weird at the 1.5 month mark but things have settled down now. Looking okay. Will settle down for you too. After the hairs grow a certain length they can be styled whichever way. Hope you're doing well. Stay calm and pay no heed to your hair till the 4 month mark. Also shout out to @DrTBarghouthi who is very quick to respond to anyone on this forum. Even though we may not be his patients he treats us like his own. Very much appreciated.

    Looking fantastic. Congrats on your surgery.

    Nice to know this. Growth was always imminent. 8-10 months is when you'd truly shine I'm sure!

    An update is due my friend

    Trust me that's a good price. You could get more economical procedures done in other clinics and some of them maybe legit but what if something goes wrong? The pain later on is far more costly. You did your best buddy. Enjoy your procedure.

    I had met Dr. Priyadarshini in 2019 when I had been to a consultation with Dr. Sethi himself. She came off as well trained under the lead surgeons so I'm sure you're in good hands. I wouldn't risk it anywhere else in India (not to say there are no good doctors). But this will be a good very procedure for the price point. Stay positive and buckle in for the long ride! All good wishes to you my friend. Also, are you getting the 20% off on your booking or have they modified the offers?

    I'm sure they checked your BP before the transplant. It's standard procedure. You could check your medical notes for this. They wouldn't proceed if everything wasn't normal. Alternatively you could try headstands for a few minutes to rush blood into your scalp. I've seen some members here do that during the recovery phase.

    Ahhh 😂😂😂 How have you been Rossy?

    Donor looks okay mate. Good distance between punches and no sign of over-harvesting.
  12. Captain Haddock
    Truly a stellar result! Thanks for insights on the daily routine too.
  13. Captain Haddock
    I'm sure things will eventually get better for you. Could you please share some recipient area pictures also? Would love to see your work

    Is it just me or does everyone else see Homer Simpson?

    Work looks really good my friend. I've been reading a lot about Dr. Arshad's work and how well priced he is for the quality he produces. Looks like a well designed hairline that suits your face too. All the best going forward, I'm sure you'll get good results.

    My dad's 59 with a NW 2! Got way more hair than I did last year. Hopefully I'll be a NW 0 in a few months time.
  17. Captain Haddock
    Truly a great result. Many congrats bro.
  18. Captain Haddock
    This was interesting to watch. Also, a very professional doctor, spends two hours planning the procedure and takes all the shots himself. Very nice to see. And there's a machine that counts the grafts! Wow. That is news to me.

    Try a mixture of castor oil plus peppermint oil (around 3 drops sprinkled into the castor oil solution). You can even add coconut oil to reduce the thickness of the castor oil. Indian mums know a great deal about essential oils lol. All of these oils had a good impact on my scalp. Also, apparently mixing curry leaves in castor oil is a good treatment when your hairs grow grey/white. I'm already going full speed towards a salt and pepper look. Probably in another 5 years time.

    Oh man, those temple points look so good. You can actually see a natural result shaping up even in the shedding phase. The donor looks well healed too. Looking really really good, Rossy.
  21. Captain Haddock
    Excellent observations on this thread all round. I guess those with lower NWs could go for smaller punches and benefit from less scarring and transection rate. Higher NWs would absolutely need that surrounding tissue intact.
  22. Captain Haddock
    This is very interesting. There seems to be a wide variety of opinions regarding this. When we were marking the hairline during my surgery I was told by my surgeon that from her experience, even transplanted hairs last around 8-10 years and that they were NOT permanent. And what @BeHappy wrote about the punch size makes so much sense.
  23. Captain Haddock
    I saw these too. Thought he looked really good. Wonder where he got it done from.
  24. Captain Haddock
    Damn. Looking really good. Dense work, plus you've already got a great hairstyle. Would love to see us both get good results in the next few months

    Day 25 Hello all. Took some pictures of my donor today in natural lighting. I'm not sure if it's gotten worse or has always looked like this post op, but I would hope that it is reversible shock loss. I checked with Dr. Arika and she had the same to say, that it was shock loss and it would resolve. The last picture I've attached here scares the hell out of me but I'm trying to stay positive. Other than that I've noticed only minimal shedding so far. Probably will progress till week 6.
