It takes a lot of courage for us to take the hair restoration procedure. It is also a 10-days long painful period after the procedure. So, I want to share my story and advices here.
I did my hair transplant with Concord Hair Restoration San Diego clinic in November 14th, 2021. I learnt a lot lessons in the hard way. They charged me by number of grafts from initial estimation of 3,500 grafts to eventually 4,200 grafts. But, they barely put 2,015 grafts on my head. I verified the donate area and the received area. They are both around 2,050 grafts. I wan to make sure that any new customers to be aware of the following important things. 1) Please make sure you take clear pictures of both your donate area and received area after your procedure. Please take clear video recordings if you can. It is easy to do rough analysis by yourself, or hire a medical professional to do accurate analysis. 2) Also, when you sign your documents, please remember to ask for one copy for yourselves.3) Don't allow them to give you an estimation with a range of number of grafts. Also, they always try to ask you to add hundreds of grafts during the procedure. Make sure that you refuse to do so.4) The doctor doesn't do anything during the procedure.
5) Ask for the medical licenses of the actual surgeon. You need the properly licensed person to do procedure with your head. I was dumb. My transplant procedure started after 3:30pm and finished before 6:30pm. I didn't know it is even impossible for two person to finish 4,200 grafts manually within 3 hours. So, if you are asked to finish more than 3,000 grafts in one session, please be alerted. I verified the number of grafts and contacted the clinic after the procedure, Dr. Ben just wanted to convince me that the current result is acceptable.
