Also I clarified again with Dr Reddy, it’s not 3000 grafts but it’s 3000 hairs he recommending for the 1st treatment.

Hi @Melvin-Moderator and @Gatsby please see photos.

Dear All, I have contacted several Drs and Clinics (6 of them). Their recommendations as per below. I really appreciate your expert comment to choose / shortlist best suitable Dr/Clinic for my HT. Thank you very much in advance! Dr Reddy ( I met him in person): Number of Grafts - 3000 Donor area - Not great but more than enough to do the job. Even can take another 3500 -4500 in the future. Suggested to do the frontal with high density. Mid and crown later (after 12 months) Recommended to take some vitamins and finasteride. Dr Arshad (did a video consultation with his Manager. Was bit disappointed as Dr him self should have done the consultation) : Number of Grafts - 2500 Donor area - Looks good Suggested to do dense hairline and crown area Recommended to take finasteride. Dr Christina at HDC (Photos sent) : Number of Grafts - 4000 Donor area - Looks good Suggested to do mainly crown and middle scalp , may be touch up on the front (after I reached the clinic Dr will check and decide) Dr Pekiner (Photos sent) : He thinks I am not a good candidate at this stage due to the main androgenetic areas (Front, Mid & Crown) are thinning out specially hairline and crown. He recommends to take finasteride/Minoxidil and supplements to strengthen the hair at least 6 months before the HT. Dr Bisanga (Photos sent) : Number of Grafts - 3500-4500 Suggesting to redesign conservative hair line add good density in the frontal 1/4 However, clinic is recommending face to face consultation with the doctor to examine further and determine the density of the donor and scalp area for the HT. Dr Feriduni (Photos sent) 1st treatment - 3000-3500 grafts Will cover 1 2 3 4 2nd Treatment after 6-9 months - 1000 -2000 grafts Will cover 5 + 5V Dr Bicer (Photos sent) Need to mention costumer service was not great. 1st Treatment : 3800-4000 grafts Will cover frontal with high density 2nd Treatment : 2200-2400 grafts to cover vertex However, she thinks donor area will be decreased permanently and white scars will be visible

Thank you very much for the input!

Thank you very much for your input. Yes, as others pointed out, it seems like I will be needing lot of grafts to cover ☹️. Best option is get a good Dr’s advice hence I will get a face to face appointment with Dr Reddy soon. I think that will give a good idea where I will be heading with my HT journey.

Thank you 🙏

Just sent a message to @Doron Harati

Many thanks 🙏

I just received an email from Dr Bisanga’s clinic and they think 3500-4500 grafts... However, recommend me to come to Brussels and meet the Dr.

Thank you. I will give a call to HDC and see

I am thinking of consult Dr Reddy face to face and get his opinion. I think that will give me a good picture

Thank you, that’s what I learnt during my research process

Sorry it’s 2000-2500 NOT 25000

Hi all, Thank you very much for all your comments! I am confused now. I did submit same photos to Hair Dr clinic last week, I believe this is Dr Arshad clinic and they emailed me saying I will need 2000-25000 grafts. Another clinic in Turkey (Long hair centre, Ahmet Yildirim ) emailed saying I will need 4000-4500 grafts and offered very low price. However, I am not sure about this clinic. If someone knows about this clinic please let me know. I will wait for Dr Bisanga’s response.
