  1. Dr.Mwamba gives irregular results and your concerns are valid. Give it a few months and hope that your skin will smooth out. If not, you can hide it with enough density. You can also remove bad Fue grafts with invisible traces. Good luck.
  2. I think it may be a technical error. from some reason, the real top doctors don't have these problems. the FUE graft has a larger disc of skin on top. correctly placed graft protrudes about 1mm above and after 10 days the skin disc falls off together with the scab. If a doctor or technician pushes this larger disc of skin into a small hole, cobblestoning is guaranteed.
  3. have you seen any good results Dr. Mwamba with afro hair before you decided to go with him?
  4. my source is google. I have a problem with cobblestoning for a long time and I read about it all over the internet heh. cobblestoning, pitting and rimming are some of the HT complications that can be avoided. There are no thorough studies and solutions for non-surgical treatment of cobblestoning. Some doctors recommend trying the fraxel laser. Dermarolling is a cheap equivalent of the laser, it is about damaging, exfoliating the skin and stimulating the production of new collagen. I have noticed that after a few sessions the recipient's skin and cobblestoning have improved a bit so will continue. You can't count on getting rid of the problem quickly, but it worked for me a little over time. I notice differences. I don't know how it might work on Afro people due to the pigment and the risk of scarring. you have to read and be careful.
  5. cobblestoneing is not unpredictable. This is an surgery mistake that can and should be avoided. most doctors (not all) understand this and are able to transplant hair, leaving the recipient's skin clean and undamaged. I don't know if it's worth fighting with this in your case. You can easily hide it with your hair and not think about it. Unless you want a short haircut or bangs slicked back. I can't to hide cobblestoning in my case, I've been using the dermaroller for a few months with the recommended intervals and it helps (at least for me) but it takes many sessions and a lot of time and I'm not sure if it will help enough that it will stop bothering me and I will start living normally again . I will continue until summer and see if I have to remove the ugly grafts. So if it bothers you a lot, read up on the dermaroller, how to use it properly and give it a try.
  6. you are not the first person with this problem. cobblestoning is a complication of bad HT technique. You don't have exorbitant requirements and you shouldn't experience it. It is avoidable and most doctors manage it. Unfortunately, some doctors still don't care about these things.
  7. I also have a problem with cobblestoning from Dr. Mwamba. I use a 1, 1.5mm dermaroller. It's getting a little better, but I doubt it'll go away completely. The only way to get rid of this may be to remove the misplaced grafts with FUE.
  8. I was attacked for my post in another thread by Tiger2050. Am I trashing the thread here? If so I'm sorry.
  9. I'm not proud of one stupid post of mine. I could do better. I didn't use a statement and backed out a moment later. There's no shame in being wrong if I admit it. Why are you attacking me now? I wanted to "call the wolf out of the woods". Discrediting, ridiculing and insulting people in defense of Dr. Mwamba is very specific to one person (those who do research know what I mean).
  10. If scarring and a second operation may have been the cause of the poor growth, why didn't Dr. inform RTC of the risk before the sale? Isn't it the doctor's duty to inform the patient about the risk?
  11. Nobody would be looking for problems with the length of surgery, the number of patients per day and ethical issues if Dr. Mwamba produced regular, consistent great results. There are doubts about that. These are not just my doubts so please don't attack me.
  12. Always treat the doctors offered to you as an item for research. There are no shortcuts and you have to check them all yourself. You have received valuable and wise tips here, beneficial for you. Many doctors will only want to sell you HT, without a thorough analysis of your benefits from it for long years. Good luck.
  13. I agree that doctors are only human and everyone has poorer results in their history. What distinguishes the best doctors from the weaker ones is that the poorer results are single cases over the years. It happens more often in the weaker ones. Just as we should applaud and praise doctors for great results, criticism is also needed when something goes wrong to make doctors more responsible.
  14. Maybe in your case it was enough, but not always everything is visible on the camera. example: someone is norwood 3, and wants a straight hairline norwood 1. On a personal consultation, you can see slightly weaker hair on the top of the head and on the crown. This predicts further hair loss in the future up to norwood 5,6 or 7. Any ethic doctor will not accept the patient's goal of norwood 1. An unethical doctor will sell everything and does not care about the patient's perspective in 10-20 years later. So I consider it unethical when a doctor always listens to the patient's goals (not the doctor's) A more reasonable is compromise between the patient and doctor. I encourage to consult in person before surgery.
  15. Have you thought about shaving your head and taking smp? I think it's much better than constantly worrying about your hair and being depressed. Consider as one of the options.
  16. Do not look for a more economical option if you did good research and you feel that you have found a good doctor for you. If I were you, I'd wait and save more money, continuing research to make sure I did everything I could to make the right decision. Money can be earned, spent and then earned again. There are more problems with a failed hair transplant.
  17. Fue Clinic performs 2 operations a day by 3 people at the same time (dr Mwamba + 2 technicians) Maybe the doctor saves a lot on personnel, hence the exceptionally long operations and communication problems? I'm not making a claim, just asking.
  18. Greedy and unethical doctors should be removed forever. They have a lot of human harm on their conscience and they are just bad peoples. Some people suggest that the bad doctor should try to be good for a while, then he'll come back and everything will be ok?
  19. Personal consultation before surgery is very important. What if someone from some reason is not a candidate for a hair transplant and may be doing more harm than good to themselves? Are there no good surgeons in the USA?
  20. I admit I rushed this post and didn't think it through. I'm paranoid? Or do I have reason to be suspicious? We know of one impostor from Dr. Mwamba.
  21. I could be wrong but without all this writing I think only the results can tell which doctor is better. Not words.
  22. Do you think so too, that HappyMan2021, WhereIsMyMind, and mustang are the same person?
  23. Since you are suggesting opinions on the forum, you know that Dr. has a lot of good work here, but also unsuccessful works. If you've done thorough research and accepted the risks, I hope you'll be successful. My post is more aimed at ignorant people who want to pay a lot of money and be in good hands. And it does not mainly concern a specific doctor, but generally recommending to do more thorough examinations and risk awareness. Not everyone wants to publish their photos on the internet and I know that makes me less credible. In my case the problem is cobblestoning and uneven recipient skin. I'm sure it's a mistake in placing the grafts, in my case by the technician in the absence of the doctor. I'm not the first person with this problem and my biggest complaint is that I wasn't careful enough during my research. As for the Marketing, it is done here and sometimes dishonestly. I call a marketing trap, among other things, the activity of a mustang user. It has been exposed by other users as an employee of Fue clinic, and may now operate under a different name.
