Dear All,

Have any of you considered or, indeed used dermal abrasion such as acid peals or 'sand blasting' on hair transplant wounds like recipiant slits, cobblestoning, ridging etc?

Would these methods be of any benifit in removing some of the micro graft era's abnormalitys?

I ask as I have a mirograft hariline which is white (Frbrotic scaring?) and a litte rasied with vissable slits, might I be best getting this smoothed out before I get it re-planted?

With thanks

Can any Dr's patenets out there tell me if transection of hair follicles in the donor site of scared patent is less than that of a 'virgin' scalp?

I I figure that if the donor site of the second ht is created by cutting along one side of the scar from the first ht then transection should, theoreticaly be hlved as there are no follicles to transect in the scar tissue?

But this assumes that the donor scar can form one side of the new donor site.

Is this normal? what is common practace on creating a second donor area when the patent already has a linier scar?

Dear All,

Any coments from peole who have had a second srtip removed from their donor regon? Any common exprences?

During my last (Very poor) HT I had my grafts harvested with the multi bladed knife, which was uncomfortable and has left my donor regon feeling a little tight. Can any other double transplant patients tell me how strip compares to multi blade?

Any more commets on DHI out there? They seem to be the only group doing FU in the UK, or am I missing someone?

Either way, they look profesional, and seem quite open about you seeing procidures etc, they offerd to arange for me to go to Greece to see an oppearation. I dont think they would do that if they were as bad as was described earlyer?

Please write back tinf and let us know a bit more about when and who did your transpalnt.

Hi there, I posted on the 'contact me' window of a ht surgons web page and Farjo contacted me. I had set a bid around ??2500 from what I recall.

My main resivation is, like you I have no thrird party to vouch for them, and the only claim to do micrografts rather than fu's.

NV

arfy,

You are a rock! Thank you for taking the time to make these recomendations to me: I will follow them up.

Once again, thank you

NV

Thanks for that Arfy,

As you say, if some good can come from a pretty depresing situation, it goes some way to making things better.Thanks for your support.

Do you or anyone else have any recomendations, for hair surgons who are good at smoothing out micro / mini grafts? Are there any outside of the USA?

Dear All, esp UK readers.

I would just like all concerned or looking for a HT, espeicaly those of us in the UK not to use the Nobel Clinic, just outside Gatwick Airport near London, I have a nasty set of slits and coblestones to back this up, and a thorgouhly doll-like hairline. The main reason, as far as I see it to have a HT rather than say a wig, is so you dont have to worry about going out in the wind, or swiming or whatever. A bad HT makes you worry about all the same things as wig wears must. can my friends see my hairline? How can I stand down wind of them so my hair blows over my grafts, how can I cunningly run my haind through my hair and oull it back into its best position....

You dont want to live through a bad transpant, it has saped my confidence for five years now, and comits you a despaerate attmept to keep your hair, for God sake be carful, and never use anywhare like Nobel who dont let you see their patients and fob you off with 'privacy' and a few photos.

I'm sure you can do better with a little reserch, I'm hope to one day

Well, are there? This glue-y goo is claimed to remove DHT from the scalp, stimulate growth etc, and apparantly has been tested by a good universtity (Helsinki in Finland)...

But has it worked for any of you?

Hi All,

I was wondering if any of you out there had had a trasplant at the Gho clinic in Maastrict, Holland?

I know its a long way, but it does sound almost too good to be true. Among the inovations claimed by the clinic are

1- No donor hair loss! Apparantly the folicle is split in manner which alows the donor site to recover.

2-Hence no donor strip removal & assotiated pain!

Other than that the procidure sounds like normal follicular unit trasplant.

Have any of you undergone this treatment, or know anything about this place?
