5 weeks. All is going very well. I can only highly suggest to compare both HT outcomes of both the doctors. As I said numerous times after the 1. HT - buzzing down my hair had literally zero effect on my skin. It was just the poor work - as it is now even more visible through the scarring especially at the borders. Doing the same buzzing procedure every 2-3 days. Thanks for the experience of getting mansplained tho

Looks super clean, nice

Two weeks after HT. Very good healing process. You can see the larger scars from the overharvesting (punched grafts close to each other, hence scars merge to larger ones) at Yaman

@wouldLikeMoreHair Started in the healing phase a couple of weeks after the first HT. It is still slightly visible but much less than before, i didn't use any treatment. I have literally zero healing issues after my 2. HT - so my only conclusion can be that the first HT was poor execution.

I did not shave but buzzed/clipped my hair. You can read online that many people do that already from day 10 on without problems. Im buzzing after my 2. HT too - without any cobblestoning or redness or pimples. You can do the math yourself

Day 9. Everything heals so fast. I buzzed the hair gently down to 1.5. You will see that buzzing my hair correlates not at all to redness and pimples as many of you have suggested in my thread. It was only poor work by the Dr. before.

I can only highly recommend to use saline water for a couple days after the HT. In comparison to the one before, so much better healing & less redness (my previous SMP helps here ofc, too) & now, day 7, a lot of scabs get off only by pouring warm water over my head. I'm very pleased, it is such a massive difference, am super impressed. Btw to all the peoples who wanted me to grow out the hair of the 1 HT - now is your chance - what do you think: how many grafts survived of the 3000 of Yaman? I feel like the hair at my front is kind of sparse, on the other hand, my hair is thin by nature.

Day 6 Heals very nicely. Can only repeat myself - you can feel the difference in quality so much between Dr. Yaman's and Dr Michalis' work (ethics).

Hello, I just finished the HT with Dr. Michalis in Nicosia, Cyprus yesterday. ~2700 grafts were added to the mid-scalp region. I must admit, superb treatment and very high-skilled technique. Only manual extraction over 2 days. He does all the work by himself - incisions, extraction, and even implementation (his only coworker helped him here). In comparison to Dr Yaman/my first HT, the HT with Dr. Michalis had a completely different quality overall. Less painful anaesthetica injections, much much more sensible work when it comes to extractions and implementations. I am kinda pissed, I listened to recommendations on this forum and went to Yaman. Dr. Michalis immediately noticed the 'damaged' donor with larger scarring that I got from doing the HT with Yaman. So again, I would not recommend Yaman at all. I attached pictures from donor and recipient area (day 1 major part (1500) of grafts implemented, and second day (1100).) I paid 1,50€ per graft, however, he increased the price already to 1,80€ in Cyprus. You pay 2,50€ in Barcelona. He paid for hotel (common) and even the flights (up to 400€, uncommon) Had a very pleasant time, there are only a few doctors who offer this quality of work for a price like this. Am very very happy. I will give some monthly updates here, beware, I will start clipping my hair again after the first month ;)). Maaaaybe will let it grow out in winter, but as I said in the beginning, my goal was a stubbly 1-3mm look in combination with a HT since my donor hair is limited and I like my hair to be like this. I will let it grow out at some point just out of curiosity. First two pics day 1, the rest is of today, which is 1 day after the HT. Best

Nice, I did the same. Had SMP done, then HT for the 3D more natural appearance. My suggestion is, to buzz it even shorter. The shorter it is, the more it blends in with the SMP. You got a good head shape, you can easily rock a 1 to 1.5mm buzz cut - so do I and I love it. Even if you are a NW6/7, by this approach, you can manage to get the illusion of a full head of hair. I would not let it grow longer since it appears less dense then

I will have a 2nd HT ~3000 Grafts with Dr Michalis Georgiou in Cyprus next month for the mid scalp. Somewhat in the future a 3rd with beard grafts for the crown. Looking forward to share my experience since the doctor has not a lot of popularity here yet. @Jayhair Redness is gone. Cobblestoning has become less and less, however, still visible. This is the situation right now

But are you allowed to wash etc? Or literally 14 days no contact with anything whatsoever

I plan a combination of HT and SMP in the longterm since I will be NW6/7. Will do another one for mid and crown ~6000 grafts with hair grafts and beard grafts in the next months then I should be good buzzing for the next 10 years

Almost a year over. Had the transplant end of october.

10. Month. Went to Yaman End of October. So almost 1 year. Hair thickening, but left side still lacking behind. Still cobblestoning. What do you think how much % of 3000 grafts is that?
