10 Days Post-HT

Heyy Thanks buddy, it was Dr. Umut who did my surgery. They said they want to see how they can work on my head first and told me it could take about 3 days. But since the extraction and implantation went relatively well, Dr. Umut said that it might work in 2 days. In the end i'm glad it worked out in 2 days.

hahaha really? This statement gives me great pleasure 😁 Hmm what do you mean with hair caliber measurement?

Thank You! The 150 singles were from day one. Here you can see all the removed grafts. There are a total of 357 singles. Somehow I also fear that these are not enough singles. I calculatet my total Hairs Singles: 357 Doubles: 2640 Multiples: 2970 Grafts x 4 = 11880 The Doc told me i had even some grafts mit 6 Hairs 😅 so assume the Average of the Multiples is 4 Hairs/Graft. This will will be a total of ~14‘877 Hairs. I hope this will result to a good density 😁 Lets hope the singles will do their job for a natural lookunk hairline🙏🏻

Yes you right, it looks more beige, that‘s because they cut off my hair very bad😂 I asked the Doc multiple Times and he said there is no miniaturization on the crown at the moment.

1 Day Post HT Here are some Pictures 1 Day after my HT. I am very Happy with the hairline and the temples. What do you thing Guys? This afternoon i will have my PCR test. I hope it will be negative.

They extracted 1200 grafts in that position. I think you can imagine the pain 😂. But i think this and the injection on my temples were the most uncomfortable things during the HT. I was surprised how chilled it was to insert the Grafts. I allways tought thats the disgusting part. I was able to watch some netflix, i decided to watch Breaking Bad again. Because i knew thats the most exciting show on Netflix and the Time will fly 😁

Heyy @PizzaWolf nice to read something positive from you! Yes at the consultation there were all docs together! For me that was great, so you had an opinion from everyone! Also the hairline, they gave me like a basic pattern, and i was able to give my opinion and they draw it and discussed all together if it looks good. Dr. Umut was my surgeon. He did nearly all bi his self, only once he needed a break, so Dr. Elif extracted in that session my hairs. However, Dr. Umut always inserted the hair

Oh man, your temples are impressive! That will be a great result! Your face will get a frame again! I will continue to follow this thread happy Growing

Oh yes, they were really long. Especially the first session was horrible. When you have to stay with the facedown on the extraction bed. My face was hurting as hell! I Think Dr. Umut was hating me, because i moves allways my head. But i am happy, that its over now! In 2 hours they will take my bandage off, i am curious how it looks 😁

Hi @PizzaWolf I will habe tomorrow a meeting with de Doc. Than we will talk about also Stopping the DHT. What can you recommend? I think there is only Minoxidil left.

What a density!😲

Thanks Buddy! I appreciate that! Here some other pictures.

Hello everybody Despite your advice, I still decided on HT and according to the diagnosis of the HLC clinic, it wasn't a mistake! As already described before, I am NW 3A that was also confirmed to me. And not NW5, as some have suggested here. Your diagnosis is probably because I showed my hair loss with really aggressive pictures. With wet or oily hair :D. The following points from the diagnosis gave me the most pleasure: - No hair thinning on the back of the head (stable at the moment) - About 8-9000 grafts in the donation area (~ 85Grafts cm2) - If necessary, enough beard and body hair as a donation I think you can do something positive with this information: D Now to the HT: There were more grafts than initially assumed because I wanted the temples and a bit deeper hairline. The HLC doctors were also satisfied with the line and think that it is still more on the conservative side. This results in ~ 4600 grafts When it comes to hairline design, I just have to say one thing: World class! All doctors in the clinic are involved in this step and give their opinion. Patient requests are also catered for. At the moment I only have the first day behind me with about 2200 grafts. I will document the rest as soon as I get around. Greeting Charlii

I don‘t think i am a NW5. Seeing the NW Scale, i think i am a NW 3a. My Crown is full of Hair, no Hairloss there. I have to say, that i have really thin hairs, since i was a child. On the photos with the wet hairs, it looks like maybe i have a low density, but its not really so. I dont have there any change. The Hairloss only affected my front area. I checked again all my family members that i have. No one has hairloss on the crown. Its clearly to see, that family member from the Mother ans Father side have all maximum the NW4a pattern.

Hi everyone First of all, thanks for your honest opinion! That was also a reason why i posted it before my surgery to got your judgment. Its really hard to read the comments, but so its life. The truth hurts! What i for sure know its, that i will not take finasterid. A family member took this and got gynecomastia. And other side effects. There is a high risk that I will also have similar side effects. So i will defenitly not use finasterid. I'm really undecided now what to do. Is waiting a solution? If they fall off, a Norwood 6 is usually not treated at once anyway, but mostly in two sessions. Wouldn't that ultimately lead to the same result if I now do the front third of my head? Yesterday I looked at old family photos again. When it comes to hair, I definitely come after my father. until 35 he had exactly the same situation as me. Since he left us early, I cannot judge how the hair loss would have continued .. What do you think should i do? HLC told me, that they will anyway first check my hair situation. Based on this analysis, they will surely tell me what to do. Again, thanks to all of you! Greetings

Hey thanks for your Answers I was also worried a bit, but when i look to my family members, they have all like the same hairloss pattern. My Gradpas on both side have a similar hairloss. I was also thinking, lets assume my hairliss will continue, that will affect more my tonsur area. Since the hair in the front area has already fallen off, it has to be done anyway and maybe in a few years the back part will have to be done. Thats what i wm thinking, but maybe i am completly wrong 😅

Hello everybody I will have my hair transplanted at the HLC next Wednesday, March 11th, 2021. I was very lucky to get such a short-term appointment, because an patient of them could not be there for his appointment because he comes from England and British people cannot enter Turkey at the moment. According to my online offer, I will receive around 3000 grafts. I will keep you posted as soon as I have the transplant behind me. Until then, wish me luck that my PCR will hopefully not be positive :D Here are some Key facts about me: Male 26 Years old Fine and straight Hairs No medication When I look back at my photos, my receding hairline has probably been slowly receding since I was 19. When I turned 21 it started to leak in the front. After that it was quick and the front third was relatively bald. For more than two years. I have the feeling, however, that my hair loss has stopped and I hope that it will stay that way because I don't want to take finasteride. Here some Pictures:

Can you provide proof that you’re no longer contagious? Hi Melvin, I can carry a certificate that I had Corona and that I am currently immune. At least that is how it is according to Swiss law that I am immune for 3 months. But unfortunately the airlines don't accept this ... they want the PCR test. And immune is just a thing, since all the mutations have come, it has only gotten more complicated!

Hi @EvansLawrence I am also going next Week to the HLC am afraid if the PCR thingy will happen to me the problem is i had already Corona before 2 Months and i heard that the PCR tests are very sensitive and it can be that it will still show a Positive result even after 3 Months. Where did you buy the flight Insurance? At the Airline by it self or at your health Insurance in your Country? Was your test after the 10 days negative? Thanks Charlii
