Who in the world wouldn't want to have the thickest head of hair? Everyone right?! When we imagine our ideal self, aesthetically we call have a particular set of characteristics that we have formed in place. When due to some or the other reason any of our idealized aesthetic forms are challenged or distorted, agitation is anything but natural to be experienced. For this same reason, many a times a lot of individuals are not able to accept the fact that they will not be able to get the density, coverage or hairlines that they find ideal. The expectations rising from their desire to achieve a particular aesthetic does not match the practical availability of the donor and the requirement of the recipient area. There are so many individuals who would rather not go for the transplantation altogether because of this one factor. The turmoil arises from a deeper sense of being and not just a superficial necessity to just find a coverage. Hair transplantation being the cosmetic procedure that it is, can still be a source of satisfaction and happiness to such patients if they can level their expectations. Some of these patients will have never even imagined that a simple change in look can give them the confidence that they have been lacking only because they have never looked at the situation from any other perspective other than theirs. Some are pleasantly surprised at their own change in attitude once they get the results. It may not be as dense and low hairlined as they had imagined but with the correct artistry, their facial features get enhanced and it gives them a situation which is obviously better than what they had. For this to be achieved, thorough expertise and intelligence is mandatory. The key is to tune one's mind into what is possible. Most of the times, we research about the credentials of the clinic, the results they have produced and so on. But we hardly give any time to research and think over what is it exactly that we want and what is the possibility. It is extremely important to ascertain what we are comfortable to carry for the rest of our lives and to visualize ourselves in the proposed possibility. We invest a lot of capital, emotions and trust when we go in for the procedures. And we must make sure that we are ready for what is to come when the results show up. This is also the responsibility of the doctor to visually demonstrate to the individuals and show them the kind of coverage and density that they would have along with the design of the hairline etc. on individuals with similar cases. Hair transplantation is all about achieving satisfaction for the patient as well as the doctor. For that to happen, we need to have a realistic ideal self image. A realistic expectation can always lead to satisfaction and a peace of mind.- 4 replies

Walk the talk! Hi! My name is Abhinay and I’m bald (bald people anonymous anyone?) So I’m the bald guy posting all of these results from our Eugenix Hair Sciences. As destiny would have it, my scalp has finally gotten ready to undergo the procedure. Its amazing and overwhelming at the same time. I know that the Doctors have had this keen eye for covering my bald scalp for the longest of time. I am just glad that I was not kidnapped to be transplanted upon. I had this tremendous fear regarding the surgery. I am an IT professional and medical stuff is the last thing that I understand. I joined in fairly recently to take up the role of Operations head at Eugenix. Life has never been the same again. I did not know that this job required so much of energy and is in a continuous and never ending flow. That being said, I have obviously seen too many patients come in and go out after the procedure. I have seen young people as well as old people come in and get the procedure done. It would be embarassing to chicken out now!!! But on a serious note, I think I do want to have a good amount of hair on my head. My hair resembles a surf wave now. The entire hair from one side is combed over to the other to hide my baldness. It is no surprise that I am phobic of even the slightest gusts of wind. Actually I’m phobic of a lot of things – rain, swimming, jogging etc etc. I seem to have copied Trump’s hairstyle. The only difference is that he is orange and I’m not. I have seen so many of my colleagues get it done here too – Nelson, Dr. Shishir, Anil, Adarsh, Nitesh, Debashish… and so on and so forth. Seeing so many experimental bunnies and being around them everyday (and knowing how extremely low their threshold of pain is), I have gained confidence gradually to go for the procedure. So tomorrow is the day I get sacrificed to the God of hair. Kidding! I’m very excited for tomorrow and I have this bittersweet nervousness around me. Fingers crossed that I don’t start crying like a little girl when seeing the injections… Have a look at my gorgeous pre surgery face below.- 73 replies

During FUE or DHT hair transplantation, a recipient demand and donor supply principle can explain the shortage of donor hair when we attempt to have a full scalp coverage on the recipient area for a patient with a high grade of baldness and not much scalp donor. In such a scenario, we then proceed southwards in search of viable donor grafts. This has led to the succesful transition of beard donor hair into the scalp with 85% approximate success in their growth. However, during the FUE / DHT hair transplantation procedure, we can also try to harvest the donor hair from the chest, thighs, pubic area, etc. but it does not have a promising result. Infact, the genetic makeup of the hair start to vary as we move further away from the scalp. Therefore, beard and sidelocks have a good survivability and close likeness to the scalp hair. This characterstic makes these hair amalgamate with the scalp hair producing fine looking results. Sidelock donor hair characterstics are more similar to scalp donor hair than beard donor because of the proximity to the scalp. Beard donor hair are more wiry and can stand out if not straight in nature. Chest hair grafts, thigh hair grafts, pubic hair grafts, etc. on the other hand might not even be visible after the full hair growth on the scalp as they tend to have a longer stagnant phase. It is always advisable to be judicious in the use of scalp donor grafts and beard donor grafts rather than move directly towards chest, thighs, pubic areas, etc. without proper assessment. Hair restoration can have multiple factors that affect the look of the end result. Hair transplantation is a baldness cure but it does have it's own rules when a hair doctor is planning hair growth in men and women. The before and after results of hair transplant can help understand the nature of the hair taken from different donor zones. The beard hair, when it grows can be styled using different hair styling products such as serums and hair protein creams.

The index patient was a 45 year old caucasian who suffered from a high grade of baldness: Grade VII-VII. He had very few hopes of getting his scalp covered completely. He had been discouraged by many clinics against transplantation as they felt that his donor was not sufficient. He came to us already expecting a half scalp coverage when he wanted to get the consult done. However, with our beard donor expertise, we were able to give him a complete scalp coverage. He has been buzzing his hair short for the following three months and then allowed the hair to grow for the next one month. The results depicted are of 4 months. He, however, has 8 more months left for his complete density to shine bright on his scalp.

Every hair transplant patient desires full coverage and density, and our Norwood 7 patients are no different. Most Norwood 7 patients are turned away by other surgeons, as the clinics are not confident in providing the patients with adequate results. However, at Eugenix we’ve been restoring grade 6/7 for almost 10 years. We have been handling grade 6/7 cases as a challenge since 2012. Our target was to give coverage of the total bald area with cosmetically acceptable density. We started using beard hair soon. After many cases we realised that beard is the not that trust worthy. Rest of the body hair are to be ignored. We split large mega-session procedures to ensure we do not over harvest the donor area, and to ensure the donor area maintains a homogeneous appearance.

Our extensive experience with Norwood 6/7 patients, and how we approach these complex cases. Since 2010, when we started hair restoration practice, we were asked to cover the TOTAL BALDNESS by patients. They were not happy to only do the front and remain BALD on the mid and crown area! The desires of the hair restoration patients are to get: 1) Natural-looking hair 2) Dense hair 3) Hair forever 4) Complete Coverage We have been working on all these points in the last 10 years and to give solid answers to all our patients. This demanded us to forsake all our Dermatology and Cosmetic practices and focus only upon hair restoration science. With a one-pointed focus, we started delivering results that satisfied most of the points mentioned on the top and most of the patients. There was one particular patient who got close to 16500 grafts from us and his life changed and he became an actor. That kicked us to do more and more grade 6-7 cases and push our selves against our limits. We modified our technique, started using different instruments, worked upon body hair. We soon realized that trusting body hair beyond the beard is foolish. In fact, in the world literate it is difficult to find and gratifying result of chest hair and that lasts long. So, we concentrated only upon beard hair and scalp hair to provide complete coverage of the baldness. We smartly tried to give the GRADED density from front to crown. Scalp hair used on the front and the beard hair used to mix with scalp hair in the mid-scalp and crown. Guys who have extreme baldness has an inversely dense beard. At times, it was difficult to make some people get convinced about beard hair because they wanted to sport a beard! Even we take 3000-4000 beard, still, most of the people could have a great beard to the sport. All these things happened over last 8 years and it majorly started in 2012. The challenge to cover grade 7 baldness has changed the course of our career and we were forced to focus only upon hair. At that time no one in the world was doing grade 7 in one sitting and our works inspired many, all over the globe to attempt these cases. With more than a THOUSAND cases of grade 7 under our belt, we are much better placed to help future patients with grade 6/7 baldness.

Many people are afraid of using Finasteride due to the fear of permanent loss of libido or impotence. We have compiled many scientific papers which are published in very reputed journals and tried to give a summary of these papers. Also at the end we have highlighted about our practice of Finasteride in male pattern baldness. Anything which is written on web comes on search in google. Many things are not true. They are anecdotal incidences. What does the scientific data say? The scientific research and data are published in PUBMED, the online library for medical science. This is the most authentic place to know anything in medicine. There are many studies which suggest that Finasteride is nearly safe to use. Baring few studies most of the studies are positive. Also, we don’t have any medicine other than Finasteride and Minoxidil which are effective in preventing baldness and are FDA approved. How effective is Finasteride? Finasteride is capable of preventing the miniaturisation of the balding hair and reversal of thickness of the hair. So keeping the balance of EFFECTS and potential SIDE EFFECTS, we suggest to try Finasteride in every baldness case. In our experience most of the people do well and whenever there is any ambiguity or doubts in the minds of the patients, we ask them to stop it. When re-introduced, the same side effects does not recur! What is the Nocebo effect ? There is a phenomenon called NOCEBO; here those group of people develop the side effects who are informed about the side effects. So, we suggest that the medicine has to be taken with the consultation with the doctor rather than having the fear and phobia. The treating doctor with the vast experience over years should be able to titrate the dosage of needed with the ultimate goal of preventing the baldness.

Is there a difference between Caucasian Hair vs Asian/Indian Hair We have been constantly asked about our experience of Caucasian hair restoration surgeries. We have been getting Caucasians as patients since 2014-15, more so in last 3 years. In 2019 alone 20-25% of our practice constituted of them. Unlike the notion that Caucasian hair restoration is difficult than Indian hair restoration, it is other way round. Baring the dark colour of Indian/Asian hair, most of the features of Caucasian hair outscores the former. Be it the number of hair per graft, number graft per square cm, or thickness of the hair; Caucasian hairs are better. The amount of grafts required to cover the bald area is more in Asians than Caucasians, due to the shape of the scalp and the hairline position. Indian hair features are in between true Asian (mongoloid) and Caucasian hair. The northern and western part of India has most of the population which are similar to Caucasians, baring the colour of the hair. However, once we travel down in India towards south, the characteristics of hair changes. The north-east part of India has more Asian like hair features. So, in India, we do get patients from different genetic pools and carry a huge and varied experience upon different hair qualities. In coming days, we will be posting more videos upon our work upon Caucasian populations.

Six Months update: Hair Transplant at Eugenix India Anil Saini, 32 years of age with progressive baldness (going upto NW 5), joined Eugenix Hair Sciences, Delhi/NCR as a medical counsellor. Soon he realised that without hair it is only “theoretical” to try to impart the knowledge upon the prospective patients over phone/mails and not wise from sales point of view to meet the patients in person in side the office. (Like a plump guy can not be a gym trainer, a bald guy might not appeal to patients as a representative of a hair restoration centre.) Soon he was in the operating room, for his hair restoration procedure! His affair was of one day. Meticulous planning was made to keep a customised, smart, relevant & practical hairline for ever, which would suit his face at 50-60-70 years of age, keeping in mind the ongoing progression of the baldness and retaining the donor bank for the future need. Close to 3000 grafts were placed on his bald frontal and temple area. Adequate Fronto-Temporal angle was kept aligning with the shape of the nose, chin, frontal bones and the eyebrows. Thin, slow growing and lighter hair follicles were chosen to create the “Hairline Zone” and the temple area. Upto 400 single hair grafts were placed in the hairline and 150 single hair grafts were placed on each temple. These “selected singles” were harvested meticulously from the nape of the neck and area above the ear to match the intending “baby hair” look on the front and temples. Some of the doubles were dissected into singles under the microscope of 20 X magnification by the most expert hands in the team. Anil was asked to start tablet Finasteride 1 mg daily to prevent the ongoing baldness along with minoxidil lotion. (He revealed that he is only upon Finasteride and due to cumbersomeness he is not using the lotion!) Result: The hair started growing up within first month and the first hair cut was by 3 months. (This is not un-usual at Eugenix to experience the phenomenon of very early hair growth of the planted grafts, without even going through the accepted “Telogen Effluvium” phase! This phenomenon happens at Eugenix, more often than not, due to the 1) Direct Hair Transplantation, DHT technique, wherein there is least “out of body time” for the grafts in combination with 2) “No Root Touch” concept. Due to these two “religious principles” in hair restoration, at Eugenix, we could avoid ischaemia, traumatic challenge and hence the over all “Shock” to the transplanted grafts and very often we witness an early growth, as early as by one month, without going through the universal Telogen phase of shedding of the transplanted hair. Since Anil is in-house with Eugenix, his everyday progress has been documented by high quality pictures, under the direct supervision of Dr Pradeep Sethi and Dr Arika Bansal! (To be honest, the doctor duo are very fanatic about every details of the procedure and more so in documenting it well.) So, we have got a huge library of the journey of Anil’s hair transplant upto 6 months now. The “out of the park” result of Anil has enabled him to have a fresh non bald life with renewed enthusiasm. He takes pride in the fact that “no one can make out that he has got a procedure done!”

I came in contact with Dr Pradeep Sethi 5 years back when I took my cousin to him for a hair transplant . My Cousin had visited numerous centres in Delhi till someone told me about Eugenix. Dr Pradeep Sethi struck me as a genuine and enthusiastic person with total dedication and being a dermatologist, that too from AIIMS added further weight to his capabilities. As we got talking I came to know that he graduated from the same medical college as me and we developed an instant rapport. My cousin's transplant results were terrific and transformed his looks altogether. Thereafter Dr Pradeep Sethi set his eyes on my Bald head and Convinced me to undergo a Hair Transplant. Though I liked the idea yet I was in two minds and when I told my wife about it she was totally against it and discouraged me further. My daughter quite like the idea and urged me to go for it immediately. That was in 2015 September end when I had my first Hair Transplant. Being 61 years old at that time, I was quite apprehensive and thus opted for a slightly high hair line and little coverage at the vertex area and since I had a good beard growth, It was suggested by me that the hairline be taken down from the back of my head where the donor area was good and the vertex be covered by my beard hair. the transplant gave me a different and a more confident look, the hairline was still on higher side, which was done on my insistence, even though I went against Dr Pradeep Sethi intentions as I thought the looks should be proportional to my age. In 2019 I decided to join Eugenix and after that in January 2020 I had a second transplant wherein my Hairline was redone to a slightly lower level temples re constructed and vertex area covered further. This time again, I Insisted on leaving the occipital region to leave a slightly bald look at the back to make it look natural and commensurate to my age, which now is 65 yrs. I must add that Dr Pradeep Sethi and Dr Arika Bansal did a tremendous job and is appreciated by all the people I show my old snaps to and what I look now. I thank them from the bottom of my Heart and my gratitude is boundless.

Grade 7 First Sitting 1 year back, front and mid scalp Total no. of grafts - 5212 Scalp - 2642 Beard - 2570 Second Sitting 7 months back, Crown Total no. of grafts - 2912 Scalp - 1452 Beard - 1460 You know what’s traumatising? Having to hear no when you want to hear yes… that’s whats traumatising! When it comes to aesthetics and paid procedure, one would usually think that any doctor would take up the case and produce a complete turnaround look. Alas, that is not true most times. When Mr Jangs came to us with a heavy heart, we were surprised that he had been facing rejection from so many clinics for his hair transplantation procedure. He was a Grade 7 on the Norwood Hamilton Scale of baldness and had thinning in his donor also. A lot of the clinics were actually scared to take up his case for the procedure. Cases like his highlight the difference in the expertise, ethics and the will to do something correct in the different clinics proclaiming themselves to be the best. There is nothing sort of best or worst. It is always about whether you have the ethics, character, courage and the skills to get the perfect job done. So, we decided to go for 5212 grafts for his first session; where we extracted 2642 grafts from his back scalp and 2570 grafts from his beard. We covered 2/3rd area of his scalp with this procedure. As you can witness his results after 7 months of the first session, he has a beautiful growth. Thereafter, we decided to go for the second session for the 1/3rd area. The following pictures shall depict his growth after 7 months of the second session and 14 months after the first session. The process of hair transplant is so much more than just a medical procedure where you extract and implant grafts. It is about having the intelligence to capitalise on the available grafts and to intelligently place them on the correct places. It is about artistry at it’s core. It is always about creating a magical illusion that breathes through and through and could most possibly bring colours into the lives of individuals who would otherwise be disappointed in life all simply because of something as insignificant as – hair!

A theatre and film actress, Vidushi Mehra felt that her consciousness regarding the empty gaps in her hairline was very unbecoming. For her, aesthetics play a vital role in her profession. Hence, she decided to do something about it. Dr Pradeep Sethi and Dr Arika Bansal designed a new hairline for her which would not only cover the gaps but also enhance her features. This was a case of an artist uplifting another. Four hundred thirty grafts were planted and 6 months later, we can see the welcoming change that she has on her scalp. She is ecstactic and as you can witness in the video it has been a wonderful journey for all of us.

It's no surprise that we get most people who are profoundly aesthetically aware – celebrities, politicians, entrepreneurs and others in the public eye. They know that when it comes to perfection, Eugenix is the place to go to for hair transplantation. In a first of it’s kind, we are bringing forth these series of self-help tutorials wherein Dr Pradeep Sethi himself will be educating the hair transplant seekers regarding what should be and what shouldn’t! Here at Eugenix, we are drenched into the Psychology of hair transplant. We eat, sleep and breathe just that. And hence we are unable to afford performing any other kinds of cosmetic/dermatology procedures. Perfection does not just happen… it has to be made. Since hair transplant is more of an aesthetic entity, art is in it’s core. The hair transplant surgeon and the team performing along have to be masters in it. Like we believe here at Eugenix - “God is the greatest designer and artist”, we try to imitate the facial aesthetics that the creator might have given to the individuals who place their trust in us. ‘Natural’, ‘wow’, ‘can’t believe that it’s transplanted!’ and ‘beautiful’ are some words that are usually used to describe our results by others. The hairline, crown, temples and the donor areas – their augmentation and preservation; it is a phenomenon in itself. Eugenix Hair Sciences believes in giving the best possible to every case. We understand the core of your hair and customise every design to enhance your look. More than 80% of our past patients reveal that nobody could make out that they have got a hair procedure done. And more than 90% of our patients are being referred by our old patients. In the series that we present to you, you shall continuously witness Dr. Pradeep Sethi/Dr. Arika Bansal themselves give you the details regarding the what, why and hows of hair transplantation. The video above is of the hairline and how important it is for the final look. As they say “the hairline is the gateway to the face”, Dr. Pradeep Sethi shall explain to you how much of an artistic aptitude is necessary for it’s designing. You shall get to know everything that you might have wondered about in the video above. It is going to be quite a ride as we bring forward all of our beliefs and knowledge to you. And we hope that this little effort of ours helps us give back to the society and individuals going through the trauma of hair loss. We are going to come up with more videos and provide details about a different aspect of hair transplant including temple recreation, frontotemporal angles, donor aesthetics and futuristic approach to manage hair loss. Watch out this space for more. As is our motto “Do it once but do it right!”

This Doctor by profession was a 42 year old man when he got his procedure done with us. He got 3100 grafts from the scalp donor and 685 grafts from his beard donor. The total number of grafts done for him were 3785. We covered his frontal zone with these grafts and he was prescribed Finasteride, Minoxidil and hair specific multivitamins for his pre-existing hair. He went in for the Exclusive package where Dr. Pradeep Sethi performed his procedure. The results displayed in the pictures below are after 5 months. He has achieved incredible results.
