    @Melvin- Admin - Exactly, the smaller head size was also the first thing Dr. Pittela mentioned was a good thing in my case…al though, i feel it also means smaller donor.. Correct, i did not fully shed. I do take minoxidil and fin daily. Other than that, just b12 and vitamind for other reasons. Took biotin for a couple weeks but then didn’t continue.

    @Melvin- Admin - yes, the precise scale was 7.35. Attaching a photo taken of the scan. @mtb - good luck to your brother. Here are couple of photos at 3 months and few days. I guess…still a lot of growth to come but things look promising.

    I had briefly discussed it with doc but we had agreed that it wouldn’t be noticeable after some hair growth. In fact, it is pretty much no visible now. I will post aome pictures soon. I did not know which way i was going to comb my hair. My native hair have always been growing strangely in different directions. I had discussed with doc and plan was to design in a manner that is not too restrictive. There is a minor swirl but it is not very obvious from the picture.

    All the very best!! Looking forward to following your journey!

    Maybe around 700-800 each side—so around 1400-1600 total…i would guess.

    This sounds similar to another case discussed on this forum before:
  7. YodaHead
    That’s just incredible!

    I am at 3 months post-op and I still have some numbness. It has definitely gotten better compared to how it was immediately after the surgery. Per my doc, it could take about 6 months or so for all the nerves to heal and numbness to go away. At around 3 months post-op i feel i have 50% numbness issue resolved…so expecting it to be 100% at 6 months mark…but then…everyone is different. In any case, definitely speak with your doctor, especially, if there is no improvement in 4 months.

    On track for 2 months!!

    I think a software like this was long due. It promotes transparency and also combines technology with skills and experience to create optimal design/plan for each individual. Remember, just like every new app/technology, there will be upgrades/improvements.

    All the very best!! Keep us posted. Cheers!

    He avoided the mustache and chin just in case i wanted to keep goatee. I don’t know the exact count taken from cheek vs. neck, but here is a photo day after the surgery showing marks on the cheek. It was same on both sides.

    Sure, posting some before/after pics here. I usually don’t keep beard, but when I do, it is not more than 2 weeks. So the photos are limited to growth period from 2 days to 2 weeks post shaving. Note: total 5.5k grafts taken from beard (neck and cheeks).

    Very normal.

    Very interesting. I wonder why most HT surgeons don’t spend much time in actually examining the scalp and/or “requiring” certain tests be conducted to rule out such issues.
  16. YodaHead
    It’s been 2 months since my HT and the numbness is 50% gone but per my doctor it will take few more months to get to 100%. It’s normal…since all the nerves are healing.
  17. YodaHead
    Thank you. Correct, i think a lot of the grafts never shed. Not sure if that is common.

    DAY-60 Update: Things seem to be progressing well. Please feel free to comment/provide feedback.
  19. YodaHead
    For only 2500 grafts this is definitely a good result.
  20. YodaHead
    Strong result! Are you also on Finasteride and/or minoxidil? I wouldn’t be surprised if this result is the combination of both—HT+Meds.
  21. YodaHead
    Eugenix offers various packages as you mentioned, and there are plenty of good results for NW 6/7 from their top tier doctors. I understand you are looking for doctors only in India. Remember that no clinic has 100% results and so I recommend that you go through list of all recommended doctors on this forum. Check their results, know their prices against your budget, and consult with them.
  22. YodaHead
    Eugenix.
  23. YodaHead
    Yes, this is correct. This is the deposit that counts towards your HT payment. I was also taken aback with this amount, however I did make sure that this amount is fully refundable if I decide to cancel. I had this confirmed via text in a clear language. I think that considering dr. Pittella is involved in all surgeries (and his clinic does not do multiple cases per day) he probably wants more solid bookings, rather than having to deal with too many reservations/cancellations from those not fully committed—especially with the kind of demand he is in.
  24. YodaHead
    I feel your hairline is a bit too low, and the grafts are placed in straight lines—which indicates inexperienced doctor/technicians. You should just wait and let it grow and see how it looks.
  25. YodaHead
    Very sorry for what you have to go through, but good thing you only got 600 grafts from this moron of a surgeon. How is the condition of your donor before and after HT? Hopefully, it is in good state for future repair work. The “fixed price” or “unlimited grafts” for X amount of $$ is a red flag most of the time.
