I'll have my procedure with Rahal on november 3rd. After a first HT in germany (1463 grafts, good overall experience) in 2007 and two years of research on international websites I'm sure, that it is the best choice. I'm looking for 2000 grafts into my hairline and a very, very thin scar. My actual scar is to wide (0,5-0,8cm). Maybe because I went to the gym after three weeks. It was much to early.
An advisor of Dr. Bisanga told me yesterday, that it makes no sense to remove the old scar and go for a second trico-closure. Is he right??? Honestly, I'm shocked.
I'll document the surgery right here. Good luck to you.
This german Rahal-patient is 6,5 months post op (1440 grafts). Images are from September 5th 2008.
