Hey nice progress brother. Removing a few mm of the hairline with multi grafts then reimplanting singles at a later stage is the best way to go here I think. However you would always need to keep in mind the small risk of the reimplanted hairs not growing properly etc. but I think in this case, it looks promising

Night and day man

Yes I agree

.... Cosmedica have harassed me non stop by email (to this DAY!), sending me fake emails, requests to take the video I made about this down, and eventually got the video removed from youtube. I don't believe anything was rectified at all. Up there with the scummiest of scum hair mill mafia

That is pretty bad, the side would be very noticeable imo (one side more than other)

Hair has never looked better. I am way, way less self conscious of it now. Mwamba did me a solid with the temples, which look superb, and Hattingen made my hairline look so much more refined and natural. At this point, I think I will do another small procedure to get rid of some grafts around the hairline I don't need. I do want to bolster the density behind my hairline a little. I also need to fix the right side of my donor as I hate it. I'll look to use beard grafts for that. Hopefully can do that around the end of the year

Michalis is a great doctor and a very nice guy, I had a good exchange with him but ultimately decided I only needed a punchout procedure. But certainly one to keep in mind for others who need hairline work.

Second, OP, please try to recover your money from these cowboys.

Oh my God.. this is awful stuff man, but it can be fixed bro. Lay up for any decent doctor, I went to Hattingen who punched out some offensive grafts I have, they can easily do this for you. You will come out of this ok.

Michalis is a great shout

Of course you could, but you are wasting precious grafts in doing so

Are you two brothers? (F. al-subaei and O. Al-subaei)

????????

Good luck man, you are on your way back. Great work

Update here -->

Hi all I'm going to keep this short because I can't be bothered typing an essay lol Initial thread here: I had 200 grafts punched out from across my hairline, and 100 grafts extracted from the donor area. All grafts were placed behind my hairline. The aim of the operation was to get rid of the chunky grafts in the hairline and create a more natural looking hairline compared to the blocky, ugly, straight hairline given to me by the Butcher of Istanbul, Asli Tarcan. I wanted to create more recession in the corners, which sounds counter-intuitive to most people, but the result is a far more attractive and natural hairline. It no longer looks artificial and weird . The operation was very short and Hattingen is a class outfit - very professional, fantastic staff, and both Dr Sever and Laura are brilliant. Both very friendly and personable, and Dr Sever is based. The clinic itself is lovely, set in a very small village in Switzerland, which was beautiful. I was in and out in about 5-6 hours, and went back the next day for a hair wash. Sever did my consultation, Laura did the extractions and the everything surgery related. She used a manual punch. I kept my hair long and had a no-shave procedure, so I was back to normal within ONE week. Phenomenal stuff. The punchouts left NO visible scarring and within a week literally nobody was able to see any remnants of the operation. Zero. For the first week it was pretty ugly though. The photos really do not do justice to how much better my hairline looks now though, so please don't take too much from the low quality photos I took for the 'afters'. My hairline looks far more natural, and I barely have any insecurity over it anymore. The density and weird shape are largely fixed. However, there are still some issues with my hair: - Still probably have around 50-60 grafts that could be removed (I may address this in 2025 if we are all still alive and the West hasn't fallen) - The direction of the grafts in my hairline are still awful.. this can not be rectified, unless I remove and then re-implant, which I am not prepared to do. The hairs in my hairline stick straight up and it really bugs me. - I still wish for a little more density behind my hairline, although this has largely improved due to Mwamba and Hattingen's work. The patches are not as glaring as before. - I wish I could still refine my hairline a little more, but my donor is in dire straits. - The donor on my right side still sucks. The only remedy here would be beard hairs. Overall, I am VERY happy with what was a very small, but very impactful procedure. Big impact on my confidence. I feel like people don't like at my hairline anymore. I may do one more. but we will see. This stuff is expensive. Feel free to ask me any questions BEFORE PUNCHOUTS COMPARISON

Love it. Can you show a photo of the skin now?

Good luck with this, this is the right way to go. You will have to be patient though as it will be a long and bumpy ride. But your hairline will look 1000x better.

I'm confused, where in the timeline is the last photo from?

I feel your pain bro.. hope you can maybe get something in the way of compensation but I doubt it. By far the most difficult part of any repair is the mental anguish in waiting for consultations and appointments etc. But schedule them in and start moving forward.. you'll feel much better. I definitely agree that extractions and then later refinement is the way to go. But it'll be a long process.

What the doctor told you is false I have had many grafts removed and have ZERO scarring. None at all.

FINALLY, RTC has come back to H..R..N But yeah, BeHappy is a great choice

What was the issue with Maitland Clinic out of interest? Edit: seems you answered above already. They are very non-salesy - perhaps that is what you may have deemed as dismissive as someone else suggested

There is a user on Reddit who has used electrolysis to great effect. His name is qui-bono. I have used electrolysis on my face (cheeks) and it's brilliant. Not in my hairline though as I need all the grafts I can get. @HappyMan2021 may have got electrolysis I believe?

Yep.
