Hi,
This forum has helped me over the past few years and I wanted to give something back with a patient review.
I had fue surgery with Dr Bisanga at BHR clinic in Brussels, Belgium two days ago a total of 2400 grafts to restore the front hairline and temple recession.
Being from England this wasn't a decision I had taken likely and had took many years to decide on who to have surgery with even harder with lockdown and forever changing regulations.
Eventually I decided to have a consultation with Dr Bisanga in London this past October. It was then I Decided on my decision.
Ian the advisor was brilliant always there there any questions or concerns, I can't thank him enough. Post after care he is still available to help and give advise and reassurance.
Graft breakdown
1 follicular units: 472
2 follicular units: 1198
3 follicular units: 717
4 follicular units: 13
Day of the surgery
I arrived at 7.30 signed the relevant forms.
Once surgery was underway Dr Bisanga started the punching and incisions.I think I may have fell asleep through this, from the anesthetic.
After lunch and a nice salmon meal the techs did the extractions and graft placements. If any more pain the techs would ask if I needed any more anesthetic. Painwise it was fine it was more uncomfortable lying in one position for such a long peroid of time. All in all surgery was completed around 17.30. After this there was more pictures taken.
I was bandaged up and a post op care briefing was given by a lovely lady, I'm sorry I didn't take her name. She went in great detail with me. She made sure I got the taxi to the hotel. The next day in the post op she went through everything again again did the saline spray and cream.
I saw Dr Bisanga he asked how I was feeling and was happy with how the surgery went
Any questions I am happy to answer and i'll update the forum with my progression
