go look at @DrMunibAhmad work & tell me hair transplants can’t look totally natural 🔥

I think he belongs to a separate tier, but until then, the coalition is definitely good. (It’s a joke).

No doubt he gets good results, but that would be a huge turn off to me. I'm paying you over 20k and I have to justify why I'd be a good patient. Lmao.

Straight out of the 'how to be a VIP business ' textbook. Make the customer feel like you are super selective and discerning in who you deal with so they become desperate to prove themselves to you and 'gain' your service. Sad..

Sorry, brother, but I think you've misunderstood this point. The question isn't so much why we (at Fuegenix) would take him as a patient, but rather why anyone in the hair transplant industry would. It's crucial to see if the patient is well-informed and knows what he's getting into. This hair transplant business is a mess, and there are unscrupulous people everywhere, eager to get you under the knife as soon as possible. It's good to know that the patient has done his due diligence before he undergoes his first surgery.

I'm here to help others, but yes, I do charge for my work as a hair transplant surgeon.
 

That said, when you (RTC) sent me a private message here asking about having an online consultation with me and inquiring about the price for that, I informed you of the cost of the consultation and my surgeries (to make sure you knew what you were getting into). However, after that, I also said in the same message, and I quote: “also if you have just some questions feel free to ask.”

You are free to make your own assumptions, although that might seem a bit unfair here. So, let's put everything into perspective for the other members.

Kind regards,

Dr. Ahmad.

I just messaged the clinic for a price on 3000 grafts. I had to sit down and grab my glasses just to make sure I was reading it right 😂 

Yes, that would be a fantastic idea. Would be a great way to showcase your work and give members a chance to use a great surgeon they normally couldn’t afford. 

Yeah, but when I post a result or when you go through my page, you also need to sit down and grab your glasses. So yeah. 😇

😂 Well if Munib doesn't consider lowering his price point once for a certain very interested individual 👋, then maybe Ahmad will 😂🙏 Average net worth people lose hair too 🥺

I was thinking of maybe doing one surgery a month with 50% discount for one of the forum members. Other members can choose who this is. What do you guys think.

Would you like to discreetly dm me afew doctors/clinics you approve of? (who are just a tad lower than your price range) 🙏🏻😂

There is one doctor who's name is Munib and another one I know is Ahmad. 😂

Thank you for your answer and really appreciate your input. 

But if you are unsure of the doctors technical skills, I suppose a manual punch is the safer bet? 

If a doctor can’t handle a motorized punch, he also can’t handle a manual punch. 
 

if you’re unsure of the doctors technical skills, RUN. 

A good surgeon can use a motorized device just as good as a manual punch. There is 0% difference in the quality of manual vs motorized grafts.

@DrMunibAhmad how are you doing it

Just setting the bar.

I suppose this is because the Dr will simply be better able to see where in the donor has been tapped out when the procedures are smaller and spaced farther apart? Just want to make sure I fully understand, thanks!

With FUE, we like to do cherry picking. If you harvest more than 2800 grafts, you are either harvesting too close together or harvesting from non-safe areas. If neither is the case, then you will definitely harvest grafts that you wouldn't take if the session was smaller. Thus, these grafts are now taken just to reach a certain number and provide coverage, but they are not the preferred grafts. So, the larger the session, the less future-proof it is. Exception: a high Norwood scale at end-stage baldness.

The higher you go, the more you’ll harvest from non safe areas and thus take grafts which are not the best ones/future proof. 

 

I can assure you that the chosen hairline is in the best interest of the patient. You will only come to realize this after 25 years when you return for a second or third treatment, even if you have been using medication and experienced further hair loss.

Taking a low and aggressive approach is akin to going commercial for a music artist. It attracts more clients and makes it even easier for the artist to grow.

I have experience with cases involving up to 3100 grafts in a single session, and beyond the range of 2500-2800 grafts, it becomes necessary to extract hair from outside the established safe donor area. I'm sure I don't need to elaborate on the potential long-term consequences that arise from this.

This is just my humble opinion and fortunately patients have a wide range of clinics to choose from, allowing them to make their own decisions about where they want to receive treatment.

Kind regards,

Dr. Munib Ahmad.

I had 3 HTs, my crown result was much slower, only started to see some growth around 5-6th month with final result after 12 months, my frontal had first growth after 3.5 months and final result after 9 months, of course this development is diverse between every paitent.

I understand that. But the reason for this is something else then the blood flow imo. All my patients have coverage in the crown at the same period as the front. 
 

I'll reply later with the explanation.

Yes, the blood stream is slower 

I disagree.

You didn’t even read the topic. 

I don’t care about the end result, what I want to understand is why some people get results @3 months, others @6 and some at 9-12 months.

How to speed growth along. 

Actually, what @GoliGoliGoli said is the answer to the specific question you're asking him.

The key factor in early growth is having more hair transplanted per cm2. This is related to the number of hairs per graft, which is directly tied to the surgeon's harvesting skills. If this number is low, then the surgeon is inexperienced, and likely has high transection rates. If this number is low and the surgeon claims it's because your grafts are naturally sparse, he's even more inexperienced for accepting a patient with a poor donor.

Consider this analogy: if you have a garden of 1 m2 and you plant 50 tomato seeds, and in another garden of the same size you plant 100 seeds, the garden with 50 seeds will reach fullness at around 9 to 12 months. Meanwhile, the garden with 100 seeds will achieve fullness at about 5 months.

Some good points @Turkhair. I think one of the biggest factors is expectations. I'm not saying this is you but patients need to have realistic expectations to what a hair transplant can do and what it can't. Some people receive an average result and have their entire lives transformed. Other patients have a result that came from mother nature herself yet wish they never had the surgery to begin with. Psychology is a very subjective thing.

What @Gatsby said is also key. Additionally, it's important to note that many patients opt for a hair transplant based on low-quality pictures and believe the result looks good. When you inspect the same area on your own head, you're using the best camera ever made — your eyes. That's why it's crucial to have high-quality photos before you commit to a hair transplant.

In my opinion, this is the number one reason why patients are unhappy with the outcome and why we see so many repairs.

Environmental and biological factors have only a minimal influence on a hair transplant, and you've already identified the most important ones yourself.

Wish you all the best, mate.

Not only do you post the most in depth photos but you provide easily some of the best natural cases in the world.  Nothing on this looks like it was transplanted. Literally looks like this person never lost hair but not in a too dense or weird way if that makes sense lol this is a 11/10 result! Congrats doc!

A SRK reference in the HLN forum. Defo wasn't expecting that. 

"From Failed Hair Transplant To Shah Rukh Khan"

This patient underwent a hair transplant at a well-known clinic. The results were not particularly impressive, yet the clinic that performed the procedure was content with the outcome. The patient sought my help for a repair, which I was able to perform successfully in a single session. Pics say enough, no words needed (no arrogance here, just admiring my own work). 

Constructing a hairline is not simply about placing single, double, and triple hair grafts in a fixed pattern. Moreover, arranging them irregularly does not necessarily lead to a natural-looking result. When I place the hairs, the irregularities are not merely random. I like to call them "carefully-considered irregularities"©. It's not random. Every single hair has been thoughtfully selected and placed to achieve this level of precision.

This is one of the reasons why I emphasize so much on the necessity of high-quality pictures for a fair and accurate comparison. To my fellow surgeons who may be reading this, I urge you to also post pictures of comparable quality. This practice ensures that patients fully understand what they're opting for, and it can help us reduce the number of dissatisfied outcomes.

Pictures are taken 1 year post surgery. Surgery was 2 years ago. I combed it open in all possible ways to showcase the artwork. 

A total of only 2050 grafts were used during a one day FUE surgery. The surgery started at 08.00 and finished at 14.45

 

I am responsible for performing the entire surgery myself, which includes shaving, punching, extracting, making sites, and placing the grafts. My assistant helps me by sorting the grafts and providing support during the placement process. 

In addition, all communication with my clinic is handled directly by me. I personally answer all emails. For the aftercare, patients have direct contact with me through WhatsApp.
