Are you willing to shave the area you want density in to get a dense transplant. I always feel that it is hard to get great results with non shave cause your vision is impaired and you maybe causing collateral damage while transplanting. To get great cosmetic results, sacrifice of shaving the recipient area should strong be considered. I didn’t read, but have you had a biopsy? You are in the age group where it is not uncommon for hair loss diseases such as frontal fibrosing alopecia to show up. If your cause is not androgenetic alopecia, the transplant can fail. How are your eyebrows?

Dr Hasson is going to pack the s%#* out of your area. Will it look great. sure for a few years. But hair transplant is not a 3-4 year game it is a lifelong game. results should not be measure in one two or three years but over 10-20 years. It is better to use a conservative number of grafts and get a good result, that still allows flexibility for long term hair loss then using an excessive # of grafts get a fabulous result for few years but less flexibility for future hair loss as it leaves you with less donor in bank for future. This is just my opinion, based on what I have seen over a long term and knowing what i know about the disease.

Close to 85% . I am pulling the number out of my behind… but it’s up there

please read the thread before asking redundant questions.

No. I have yet to see a single botched donor from kesser. Very unlikely. Looks to me more like bruising cause you bled more that day. Will go away.

probably Robert True of True and Dorin.

Man. With all due respect you sound like a pain in the ass patient. Yes you are paying the doctors for a service and yes they should give you the best quality ethical surgery they can deliver. But they are not your servants. you are treating the consultant with zero respect. plus all the antagonizing. If I was the doctor I would throw you out of the practice in a heart beat. no wonder they decided to cancel your surgery. also from the conversation it does seem like there must be some real issues with refunds taking long and they are not doing it out of spite. Cause rishab said the same thing when he said “if your visa was not granted” refund will take 5 months. I hope you do better for ur next hair transplant doctor search. Remember respect is a 2 way street. u should treat everyone decently from doctor to staff . also find out the hotel and taxi prices urself.

In this field where doctors make all kinds of claim, asking for proof is the Norm. Not long ago a doctor from your country was claiming to extract hair and regenerating it in the donor area. Photos look good. I confirm the punch size, if these are immediate post op photos, are indeed small.

good results. arrogant and condescending doctor.

you have fantastic hair. choose wisely for 2nd op. and you will be fine.

I don’t believe this. Show us the extraction site. Lot of people claim 0.7- 0.8 mm but u see the extraction holes right after and it looks more like 0.9, 0.95 or 1.0 …

to me it seems like your crown is too far gone to come back. i could bewrong. if u r not having any side effects though you still have great hair in front. so keep taking it to preserve. if you preserve the front, your crown can be transplanted a bit aggressively and then you will not have any signs of balding for the average eye.

no this would be impossible to know. U would have to know how many patients from the clinic got necrosis and how many patients got surgery at the clinic. the best thing is for patients like yourself to make their complications known publically (but anonymously). If you see a pattern then people can start avoiding the clinic.

Unlikely.

Yes

There is nothing unethical with posting about your result. Your doctor is not your family or your friend. It is a business after all and if a patient has an unfrotunate incident he should post. Some post op pics can give possible clues as to what may have happened.

no i am not comapring the procedures. I am pointing out the genetic difference between individual patients. Necrosis happens cause the blood supply to the scalp is interrupted to that area for a prolonged period of time. Some people have blood vessels that are more vasospastic. They shut down (constrict) with a little bit of epinephrine. Other people have poor circulation due to diabetes, high cholestrol smoking. There is genetic differences to everything. Saying that it is 100% surgeons fault, is misleading. Every surgeon on the planet if they have done surgery for long enough will have a case of necrosis.

its like saying every bad scar from FUT is the surgeons fault. We know now, that no matter how perfect some techniques will be, some people just scar poorly or form keloids or what not. At the same time there are a lot of surgeons that use poor closing techniqure and cause bad scars.

completely disagree. In 80% of the cases it can be the surgeons (or surgical technique flaw). In some cases you can do everything by the book and still have a case of necrosis. It is just the risks of being operated on.

I think in a good surgeons hand the necrosis rate is probably 0.5%. sometimes it can happen even if you do everything right. some clinics have Terrible techniques and in that case it is the clinics fault. there is not one single answer. It would depend on the case and the technique used, solutions used. You woild have to know and observe the whole procedure to troubleshoot why it happened. E.g dense packing, too much epinephrine, too big recepient sites, smoker/ diabetic patient etc.

check out dr alba reyes in dominical republic. she has a lot of afro hair cases published

You take ur doctors word that no grafts are being transected? lol Trust me even best docs are transecting , and also a lot more partial transections.

If you knowingly falsify your tax return, the worse that can happen is prison time. It is rare but sometimes they do it to set example.

It looks god. U will be happy and also have a lot in the bank for future
