They have the same technicians? Has this been confirmed? What about on days where they both do a procedure? 

I went to nadimi and was talking to techs.  I do believe they said that they work with her on some days and him on others.  

Seems to be but lighting is very different and favorable on second

That was really my primary issue.  I had to wear my hair long to cover the recession in. The hairline.   Now It doesn’t look a lot different but I can wear it much shorter and don’t need hairspray to hold it.

Do you feel your results look completely natural?

Not sure if your question was directed at me, but yes, definitely looks natural.  Honestly, I see very few pictures that do not look natural. Hair transplants are quickly becoming a safe and effective remedy for male pattern baldness.  

Also would like an update 

It absolutely amazes me that nothing better has come out in 29 years.  I’ve been on for 5, thinking that by now something better would have definitely been created.  Is it lack of research?  Is it really that difficult?   

Any potential issue with sun exposure while this is on your head?   More sensitive?

You can get topical fin on struthealth.com.  Have also been thinking about trying this.  

I’m sort of in the same situation.   Been taking fin for years, hair transplant 6 months ago.   Decided against min.  I think and hope that min just speeds up the process and won’t have any affect on final yield of grafts which grow.

Any updates?

Hey are you looking for experiences with Dr Nadimi?

Check out Konior's newest Doc--"Boomer"---he did a fellowship under Konior and is in his Office with the same world class techs. I think he may be doing surgeries---and I would imagine he would be much more affordable.

Have you seen any results yet?

Two technicians, it looked like one was preparing the grafts while the other was implanting. 

Well, my right side is the side that's thicker, interesting!

I think this would make the most sense to be honest, since one side is done before the other normally.

 

That does make logical sense also.  Would be an interesting study as I see this comment quite often.   Although, I think that normally this is discussed during the growth phase and I’m not sure if In the end the one side is permanently less dense?   I seem to recall that often people say that it just grows later and catches up?    

My theory is that it might be more of a blood circulation or body chemistry effect than procedure related.   Is the right side always better for everyone?

I had nadimi.    She charged 8 to konior 14 I believe.  I’m happy for the most part.  She’s just very conservative with hairline and you get 1700 whether you need 1700 or 3000. I’ll need a second procedure to lower my hairline a bit.  

Nadimi will say 1700 to 2000 even if you need 3000.  Honestly I think it’s just what she can do in a day.   I got the same estimate but I definitely could have used more.  Day of surgery I said that I definitely would pay for 2000 and ended up with 1700.   Will have to go for a second and right now if I had to decide I don’t think I’d go back.  She was also very conservative with drawing hairline.  Overall experience was fine but not sure I can say that paying those prices provided any extra value, except location.   

Thanks for replying.   I really could have used more and I’m now contemplating whether or not to use her again.  I see very little about her on this forum in the past months.  I was wondering if she is focusing more on the other facial surgery she does and less on hair transplants.   I’m not disappointed with the results, just wonder if it’s better to use someone that focuses solely on hair and not noses, eyes, chins etc.

@Runitback When did you get transplant with Nadimi? Are you not satisfied with the results?

Too early to tell for results.   Think I will be good.  Only issue I had was that she did 1700.  We discussed and  I was more than happy and willing to pay for 2000 while I was there. I could have easily used that and more to lower hairline a bit or fill in mid scalp.   I told her this before the surgery started.  But at the end, I got 1700.

for my 1st hair transplant, the doc really undercounted the # of grafts needed, and there was significant part of my scalp left unfilled. I was quoted 1200 grafts and really needed 2000 or so. 

The grafts that were planted grew in fine but still a failure bc I was sentenced to needing a 2nd surgery. Super frustrating bc the doc knew 100% during surgery it wouldn't look good. But instead of adding more grafts then and there she decided to leave me hanging. 

Mind if I asked who you I’m used the first time.   I am feeling similar as I believe I could have used more but my dr only did 1700.  You mentioned she and I also had a she, dr nadimi.   

How did it go with nadimi?

Update?  

I’m also at a month and most Of mine remaining in the recipient area have either not grown or grown at a much slower rate than native hair.  Hoping this is ok.   

I am also at one month and have had very little if any growth of my transplant hair and a lot of growth with native hair.  I hope this is normal.  I think it takes a while for transplants to get blood flow working and adjust to new location. 

I’m also 4 weeks and have slot of numbness on top of head and recipient area.  I don’t think that’s an issue 

I’m also at end of week 3 and I’m not sure if I am shedding or if there is just a big difference in growth between native and transplanted hair.   I think some of both.  I am also still numb in recipient area as well as top of head.

Honestly, I never experienced any discernible shock loss.  It doesn't happen to everyone but if it does, its perfectly normal and will grow back.

We’re you on fin the entire time?   Min also?   Prp?  Trying to determine  your secret.
