Hi everyone, In this video, I continue to track the progress of my Hair Growth & Thickness using a Hair Loss Treatment with CBD Hemp Seed Oil in this 7 Month Review. -
Hi, This is my first post to this site. My situation: I have made a non-refundable deposit of $1,500 to book my surgery date, a month from now. As I review this site, concerns have arisen for me. I have chosen a surgeon, Dr. Rahal, who is more than twice as expensive as any other surgeon in Toronto I have consulted with. I did this as Dr. Rahal specialises in hair transplants, is well reviewed (in my elementary research), I have a suspicion that you get what you pay for, and I was impressed by the sales representative. I was ready to invest this much as it is very important to me that my hair transplant be undetectable and good. Upon reading threads related to "Rahal" here I have discovered, 1) that Dr. Rahal's patients haven't been posting as frequently as they used to, 2) some have had major complaints with Dr. Rahal, 3) my expectations of an undetectable hair plant may be too high, and 4) it may be that Dr. Rahal is in the business of restoring hairlines to full youthful vigour, which would be unnatural in my case (I am 50). Is Dr. Rahal old fashioned and obsolete (out of date with modern techniques and contemporary expectations)? One thread suggested excellent results can only be expected 1/10 times, and 2/10 times were failures. The remaining 7 out of 10 were, on average, middling (which is the same as a failure for me, for fear of being detectable). Two other quotes for me (from SpaMedica and Dr. Asaria's Face clinic) came in at $9,000, vs. $22,000 for Dr. Rahal. Does this make sense? Even with the loss of the deposit, I would cut my costs dramatically by going elsewhere, and I am far from rich. Also, is 3,000 grafts too much for a single sitting (this was in my quote)? Your responses would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance. -
ABOUT ME: Hi Everyone. I have Been researching Hair transplants on and off for the last 4 years or so. This forum has been amazing in helping me research and gain the knowledge and courage to finally take the step to hopefully regain my confidence through a hair transplant. I thought it only be fair that I share my review and progress so that in the future it may help others that were like me on their research and journey. I am 41 years old and have been slowly receding since I was about 27 years old. I originally was looking at the cheaper clinics like Cosmedica and Dr Cinik and each year I didn't have enough courage to go ahead with the procedure. Luckily for me because of this delay in deciding I was slowly saving each month and before I knew it I had saved enough money for Surgery with Dr Demirsoy who was always producing good results and was highly respected from what I could see but was always out of my price range. My main reason for choosing Dr Demirsoy was he did the extractions and the incisions himself. MEDICATION: Minoxidil 5%, Biotin, Multivitamins Finasteride 1mg starting today when it arrives. Will continue if no side effects. MY EXPERIENCE: I contacted Armamed through their website and quickly received a reply from Dr Demirsoys assistant Mussafer. As requested I sent my Photos for assessment and received a reply the next day with information and an estimate of graphs required which was 3000 to 3500. I had loads of questions over the coming days and weeks and Mussafer was great in answering them and made me feel it was never any trouble. I even had a WhatsApp call with him before I confirmed my booking. My booking of the flight was enough to secure my surgery date. Fast forward a few weeks and I am on the plane to Istanbul. My flight arrived late on the Thursday and I was picked up and taken to my hotel. I hardly got any sleep that night as I was anxious. SURGERY DAY: I was picked up at 8am and taken to the clinic. The clinic was very clean as expected. I filled out some forms and answered some questions about my family history of hairloss and general health. I was very anxious about the whole experience and Mussafer was always reassuring and able to answer all my questions and worries. I was then taken to meet Dr Demirsoy. He checked my hair and and asked about my expectations. He can't speak much English but Mussafer was always there to translate. I explained I wanted my hairline restored to where it was when I was younger. There was no need to lower the hairline as my hairline was still there at the front but just thin and the temples had receded a lot. I left the design to the doctor with thoughts of changing it if I wasn't happy however I was pleased with the final design. I was very impressed by the enthusiasm of Dr Demirsoy. He reminded me of an artist taking pride in his work as he measured and checked my hairline from different angles in the room. I said I was happy with the design and proposed coverage. I was then taken into another room to have my photos taken. Then given medication to reduce anxiety and prepared for the surgery. In the surgery room I met Dr Demirsoys 3 tech assistants. They were all very friendly and professional and made me feel at ease. Mussaffer explained the head tech has been working with Dr Demirsoy for 16 years along with one other 9 years and the 3rd tech 5 years. I have quite a high pain threshold but I was still very worried about the anaesthetic injections as almost everyone says they are painful. It may have been me but honestly to my surprise they were not any where near as painful as expected. On a pain scale mostly 3/10 with the odd 4/10. Again everyone is different. The Dr then came in and started to extract the graphs. I can't remember exact times but this took around 2.5-3 hrs I think. Then we stopped for a quick lunch and back in for the Dr to start the Incisions. If I remember correctly this was approximately 1.5-2 hrs then all 3 Tech assistants began inserting the graphs. I think this was 2.5 to 3 hrs. When the surgery was finished they cleaned me up and took some more photos. I was given some pain killers and antibiotics to take for the next few days. Also given further advice on how to sleep etc. I then paid for the surgery, hotel and transfers in Pounds. Mussafer explained that the surgery went really well with lots of multi graphs being extracted, lots of 2 and 3 hair graphs as well as 4 and 5s, I did not bleed a lot either. He mentioned a couple of other things that went well and said all being well I should expect good results which is nice to hear. 3412 graphs were implanted. I was then taken back to the hotel. Once again I could barely sleep. I am a fussy sleeper and got perhaps 2 to 3 hrs. I was picked up again at 8am and taken to the clinic for my first wash. The doctor briefly checked my donor and recipient area and said its coming along nicely. I was given some shampoo and spent some time with Mussaffer discussing the washing and care I needed to carry out for the next 2 weeks. I spent the rest of the day in the hotel and was picked up at 4am for my lift to the airport for my return flight. As I write this review I am on Day 4. All is going well as far as I know. I have sent update photos and feedback was it was all looking good. Unfortunately I was one of the unlucky ones and got bad swelling but that has gone down already now. Over all My experience with Dr Demirsoy and his team was excellent. Very professional. The Dr's assistant Mussaffer was great and had to put up with my many questions and helped me ease my anxiety. Hopefully I will be just as pleased with the results. I will Update periodically with my progress Thanks -
So my research began in April 2016. I am originally from UAE but now living in the UK, I am 29 and had been Slowly losing my hair for about 12 years, mainly from the crown region and of course receding from the sides. I always preferred having slightly longer hair than wearing it short, covering up the bald spots with more length. I was a norwood 3-4. I contacted several places in London first and set up a consultations at different clinics. Which were very nice and very professional. They offered me 2200- 2500 grafts for £8,000 more or less and asked me to come in again a year or so to get another 2000 grafts done. It's a lot of money, so I investigated some high end reputable clinics in UAE. After sending my photos into about 6 different clinics in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, I narrowed down my options reading websites, forums, different types of hair transplantation. Once I had narrowed down these, I started to look into the smaller details such as, price, customer care, reviews, and B/A photos. It is not easy making a big decision such as this but there can only be one winner, which for me was Hair Transplant Dubai Clinic. After sending in my photos for consultation I got on whats app with one of their representatives. She asked me how many grafts i wanted and what technique should i opt for. I had to stop her and clearly say that I had no idea how many grafts I needed and which was the better option for me. She sent me a graft calculator link which is pretty easy to use, after that i had somewhat clearer picture of how many grafts would i be needing. You can also use it here... https://www.hairtransplantdubai.com/graft-calculator/ Then i was put through a phone call with Dr Cagatay Sezgin who was very pleasant to talk to but I may have felt a bit unsure at first with what was being said and what I needed. Then the clinic whats app me photos of before surgery and at 3 month stage after the transplant. I was so impressed with his results and the way Dr Sezign and the staff at the clinic spoke to me, they really sold it to me. On arrival at Hair Transplant Dubai Clinic I was taken to the reception where i was handed a questionnaire. They took my blood tests and also extracted some from our arm so they could formulate the blood for the PRP injection. Then I walked into Dr Sezign office, we spoke about my objectives, hairline, main goals and expectations. Dr Sezign also showed their gallery of B/A photos of previous clients scalp's just after the FUE operation and how their hair had turned out. Dr Sezign explained that he would try and place as many grafts on the crown area but admitted that I may not have enough grafts in a single session so would expect the crown area to be less dense. I accepted that this would be the case as I was a Norwood 3/4 so would need two transplants for maximum effect. He then drew hairline markings on me and also drew on my donor area and then it was off to the photo room for before pictures taken. After this I was taken to the wash room to have my head shaved. The procedure: Step 1 - PRP injections - it hurts a little but this lasted 10 seconds and only two injections were used. Step 2 - The Anesthesia - I got about 10 of these all around the head. it wasn't painful at all. Step 3 - Extraction of the hairs from donor area - There was no pain at all. they constantly asked at the beginning, if there was pain and if there was any discomfort they would pump it up with a bit more anaesthetic. When the head is totally numb you really feel nothing. Some moments I started snoring as the anesthetics kicked in and I was that relaxed. Step 4 - Opening implantation canals with incisions - Dr Cagatay Sezign was very attentive during this very important procedure and it was almost like a ritual where silence fell, everyone stopped talking and were intently waiting for the Doctor to finish his work of art. The incision process is the most skill required part of the transplant procedure and it not just about sticking holes in the head, getting the density right, the direction, right width of punches from the FUE motor, all these factors are of utmost importance. Step 5 - Once the incisions were made I was let out for a little break at the reception area and given lunch, which I devoured quickly, because, I was so hungry. But I'm not sure why I was actually gagging up on sugar, I don't normally have a sweet tooth. Step 6 - Returning to the surgery room I got back on the bed, I was so relaxed, lying on my back. I drifted off making snoring noises while the final stage of planting all my grafts into the incisions was initiated. 7 hours through the surgery I was finally released, given instructions and was on my way home. After Surgery: First two days were a little uncomfortable, i had this urge to scratch my head at times, but i abstained from doing so. Few tips that may help some of you that have already decided to get a hair transplant: 1)Invest in a proper neck support pillow. You are going too need it. Although i was given a complimentary inflatable support pillow by Hair Transplant Dubai Clinic in order to sleep vertically at an angle at night it felt a bit constricted around the neck. 2) Donor Area is tender and recovering at first, So do not worry if you notice something unusual after waking up the first morning after the procedure. My bed pillow and neck pillow were a bit stained with blood, I was worried but later told this was completely normal. Be prepared and cover the pillows with some towels. 3) Do not try remove or adjust your headband no matter how tempting this may be. 4) Eat hearty - Make sure to have a good breakfast and lunch following the days after the procedure. 5) Have a list of pre-prepared questions ready to ask your surgeon before the treatment. It is easy to forget some questions you have on the day due to nerves, So its best to write them on a paper. Take your time and research everything you need to know. I have nothing more to add about Hair Transplant Dubai Clinic for the time being, apart from the fact Dr Cagatey Sezign was a professional gentleman and he was very kind and supportive, never pushy or unrealistic. An honest Dr and I respect his practice. The team at Hair Transplant Dubai Clinic all knew what they were doing and were very calm and comforting. Thanks to all who were there in my surgery and who placed all my little new friends on my head. All I can do now is wait for the results. I will try to post my before and after pics in 3 months or so. Good luck everyone with finding the right HT surgeon for you!- 1 reply

Hi Everyone! I want to thank you all for being such a great resource in my hair transplant journey. I used this site extensively to learn about hair transplants and I would like to share with you all my hair transplant experience thus far so people can benefit. My profile: Age: 27 Clinic: HDC Clinic in Cyprus Surgeon: Dr. Kyriakos Maras Date of Surgery: April 1, 2017 Type: FUE # of Grafts: 3200 I started my hair loss in my late teens, receding heavily at my temples. I wish I had done something much earlier to combat my hair loss as I have lost a lot of my hair in the front and top since then. I started shaving my head to a 2 the last few years after growing tired of a combover. How I found my clinic: I did a lot of research online and compiled a list of top clinics in North America and Europe. Then I contacted each clinic for an online consultation where I sent them pictures and videos of my hair. I found the best way to organize info I receive and to compare and narrow down the clinics to what suited me best was to create an excel spread sheet. I recorded many things which included the number of grafts they recommend, the expected hairline design, and price. After narrowing down a few clinics, I looked extensively at patient reviews on hair transplant forums to make sure people are getting great results. I found that Erdogan at ASMED produced wonderful results at a reasonable price, but had a long waitlist and wanted me to be on finasteride for at least 6 months. Several others like Bisanga and Feriduni also produced great results but was a little more expensive. HDC is a clinic that one of my friends had gone to about 6 months earlier than I did. He got good results from them and so did a lot of other people online. Their price was also a little lower than Bisanga and Feriduni. So after contacting them for a consultation, they made me feel comfortable with their level of service and I went ahead and set up a surgery. The transplant experience: The clinic made me feel very comfortable that I was in good hands the whole time. Dr. Maras and the techs that worked there were very experienced, professional, and courteous. I was picked up from the airport by a driver sent by the clinic and they provided free accommodations for up to 7 days. At HDC, Dr. Maras does the punching and excision and the techs do the extraction and placing of grafts. The techs have all been working there for a long time, so I felt very comfortable. The surgery itself took over the course of 2 days, about 4/5 hours each day. Like most people on here say, the most uncomfortable part was having to lie down in an uncomfortable position. There was no pain at all aside from the anesthesia injections. The clinic offers free accommodation for up to 7 days, which I took advantage of. Post surgery I went into the clinic everyday and got my hair washed by them and they made sure everything was going well. By the time I left Cyprus, the scabbing had already been washed off my head. Here is a picture with Dr. Maras 4 days post op. Swelling has gone down considerably by then. Vlog of my hair transplant journey: I feel the best way to share my experience with you all is through visuals rather than words, so I decided to make videos documenting my whole experience in a vlog format. I have just finished and uploaded my first two vlogs on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrXSnH6jHAsX1EIgXECbIhQ/videos Vlog #1 shows my arrival to Cyprus and getting picked up at the airport. I also give a tour of the apartment that I lived in for a week. Vlog #2 shows the first day of surgery where Dr. Maras provided my consultation and designed my hairline. I am spending a lot of time to try to make these videos professional (first time video maker), and will upload a new vlog whenever it is done. I hope that people will find these videos documenting the whole process helpful. I will post in this thread whenever a new vlog is uploaded, but you can also subscribe to my channel to be notified. I really appreciate your support! Progress pictures: I have just hit 5 months and have already seen a lot of results. Here you can see a before after shot of the top and front of my hair. You can see that my hairline has been lowered by quite a bit. The hair is looking really great in pictures and even in sunlight. However, up close I am really hoping the front will gain more in density. I will continue to post more old pictures that I took after the surgery and update you guys with my progress here. Also I made an Instagram account where I upload my progress pictures, so be sure to support, follow me there, and check that out too! https://www.instagram.com/hairplanter/ Current hair loss regime: I am currently doing the big 3 regime. I started finasteride in January 2017 and luckily had no side effects. The Minoxidil I started 2 months after surgery and Nizoral I just started a week ago. Nizoral has caused a bit of shedding after I incorporated it into my regime. I'm planning on continuing for longer before I decide if want to keep using it or not. 1) 0.5mg Finasteride daily. 2) 5% Kirkland Branded Minoxidil Foam applied morning and night daily. 3) 2% Nizoral shampoo used once a week. Thank you so much for reading my post! I hope that you find my content helpful if you are considering or have had a hair transplant. Feel free to reach out with any comments and questions. I look forward to providing more content for the hair loss community! -Hairplanter Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrXSnH6jHAsX1EIgXECbIhQ/videos Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hairplanter/- 23 replies

Hello! I am a Patient of Dr. Panine and reviewing my personal experience of Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Hair Transplant. I am twenty-six years old with 3 transitioning to 3A on the hair loss chart (You can see where my hair was at with the first photo of my first consultation) . I started losing my hair around early twenties. As the years went by and my hair loss progressed, I tried to do minoxidil 5% liquid form during the last seven months. Eventually, I came to the realization my hair will never be what it once was, so, I decided to do a Hair Transplant and started researching. I currently live in Chicago, IL and went online to see what my options were. I first decided to understand what a hair transplant is and what kinds of treatments option I have. I found a few people who had alright reviews but after consulting with them about everything I felt they weren't the right person for me to do this with. I am a not a fan of any type of surgery and wanted to make sure I went to someone with the same vision and had a well known reputation. More then a few consultations later, I stumbled on to Dr. Panine. He had great before and afters and not a bad review to be found and I definitely searched pretty well like I did with the others. Everyone said " He was an Artist when it came to hairlines.", "Great job and made sure I was okay the whole time.", "He was their the whole time." etc... I decided to give him a chance and got in contact with his assistant, Stuart. Stuart was very professional and well knowledgeable about everything. You'd think that would be a giving but the other places really missed the mark on that. He told me in detail about everything and proceeded to show me before and after photos, which they were all very realistic and had a great result overall. I met Dr. Panine afterwards and he was very nice guy. He really made sure to talk about what I am looking for and adding his own artistic vision to create a realistic hairline without me going overboard on my idea. He and I came to a compromise and I really like what he had to say and came up with and decided to go with him. I followed the pre op instructions until the day of the procedure and came in to the office at the time scheduled. I met up with one of the assistants there who was also very kind. She gave me the paper work and helped set me up for everything. Stuart took some before photos and talked to me about it all. Dr. Panine came in said hello and proceeded sketched out the line and made sure I was good with the placement. As the surgery began, he made sure to explain everything and really made sure that I was comfortable as possible throughout it all. I also like to mention that he was there the whole time. When I talked to other doctors about this, they said the assistant would be doing a good amount of the work, which made me uncomfortable but made me really happy/apprecaitive with Dr.Panine. Dr.Panine assistants' were great also! Checked up on me a lot and asked me how I was doing. They would put their hand on my arm gently when they had to extractions or do something and it really soothed and made me feel a lot more comforted. They had gotten me a sandwich of my choice, when they took a miniature break and talked to me about what else they had to do. The process took about fifteen hours and I had more then 2,500 grafts. Dr. Panine work every second of the way with his assistants' for hours and they did an amazing job. Stuart did some post op pictures which I posted. The next day, I came back in to check everything as asked, which everything was Great! I am very happy with the results so far. I highly recommended Dr. Panine and have a lot of people excited to see my hair grow. Here are some photos of my head also, three days after and I’ll be continuing the photo progression. Here’s day 5 going onto 6. (11th-12th photo) Ten Day mark (13-16 photo) Thank you for reading this review and hope this will help your decision. Thank you Stuart and Dr.Panine! -
Hi all, I have used lace systems for a while and after some terrible service i decided to give the company total cover plus a go and try their product "contact skin" Heres a short review of my thoughts on them so far COMMUNICATION/INFORMATION I emailed them first with some questions about the hair and the system itself, within 24hours i had a reply with all the infomation i asked for Rating 5 out of 5 PRICE i was paying ?650 for a lace system every 3 months before, this system is a special price off ?149 for your first one and then ?269 after. A service charge off ?89 is added for the head shaving, scalp cleaning, shampoo, bonding and cutting of the system Price wise i think this is right in the middle, i have seen cheaper systems and there is many more that will cost alot more and depending on you circumstances this seems a good deal for what you get RATING 4 out of 5 LOCATION My nearest salon where the product was available was in london which for me was a 45min train/tube ride. The salon was called frankie chochrane and was your typical off street trendy london salon. Clean and welcoming its what you would expect but is quite open and other people having their haircuts will be seen coming in and out but when i went it was not busy and unless you are shy this should not be a issue to many people. The stylist was full off infomation and expalined everything fully and it took around 2.5 hours to shave my head, clean my scalp, apply the bond and attach and cut the system. The cut was superb and the eye for detail rally impressed me Really needs to be in salons! a trip into london is fun but a pain when its raining! im sure eventually they will roll it out across more 4 out of 5 THE SYSTEM The system itself is light and is cut down to size in salon. They match and order in the correct colour for you and mine was dead on what i needed to match my remaining hair. The bonding was easy and i have had no reaction to the soft bonding The reason i wanted to try this system was for one thing...the front hairline! the sales patter is that it is totally natural looking and it pretty much is. The day after having the system on i had to add a tiny bit more bond under a small section at the front of the system as it was still white ( the bond is ment to go clear after 12 hours ) and pretty soon it went clear and the front hairline looked good! here is a picture taken just after i rebonded a small area that was a little loose As you can see my hair is "up" mainly so i can show how it actually looks, i know for a fact i could not have a lace hair system in such a style and it looks as close to natural as i think i could get ( not i had not styled it in the picture just swept it to show the hairline, i usually have some wax in! ) Great base, good quality hair and so far seems great RATING 4 OUT OF 5 THE VERDICT Decent price, decent location, good system so overall its decent for what you want and pay for RATING OVERALL 4 out of 5 What could be improved? - Its a set price on the systems, if there was a option to pre buy a couple of systems at once for a small discount i would be tempted - Needs to be in more locations as traveling into london is a mission and adds a couple of extra hours ontop of the 3 it takes to fit the system - You cant buy these systems and have them bonded and cut in yourself to save money - You will need to buy your own bond, scalp cleaner etc which can add some extra cost ( to be fair lace systems you would have to buy extras as well ) I have had the system for less than a week so i will update in 8 weeks or so on how well it has lasted, the advert said 6-7 weeks but the stylist said 12 is normal so i will update when i know! Hope this helps anyone else who was looking for info on them and if you have a question just post or PM me and i will answer the best i can Regards

I've been losing hair since I was 24. I used Propecia for some time and then switched to Minoxidil. Now at the age of 31 I have decided to do the hair transplant surgery. After extensive research on forums and YouTube the decision was made to do the surgery in Turkey with Dr Hakan Doganay at AHD. I currently live in London and the price difference was staggering. At the same time Dr. Doganay has good reviews. Initially, I communicated over email with Mustafa who sometimes responded within hours and sometimes remained silent for a few days. In any case, we've decided to have the procedure done in mid-December so that I would have plenty of time to recover over the Xmas break. Upon my arrival at Istanbul airport, I was met by the driver who took me to the hotel not far from the airport. It was a typical Holiday Inn. Breakfast and dinner was included for the duration of my stay. The next day I was taken from the hotel to the clinic which was also not far. After a brief consultation with the medical assistant and Dr.Doganay himself I was shaved and taken straight to the procedure room. I must say that while the Doctor didn't speak much English he was always asking me (through his assistant) if I had any questions which was reassuring given that he was about to punch 2 thousand holes in my head. Probably the most painful part of the procedure was when I was given local anaesthesia. The rest of the procedure was painless. I've spent 6 hours on the first day (1300 grafts) and another 5/6 hours on the second day (1400 grafts). I was told that splitting the procedure between two days allowed for faster turn-around-time between extracting and planting so that the follicles didn't spend too much time being out. On Day 3 I was given my medication and was shown how to wash my hair properly. The first 5-6 nights after the surgery I felt discomfort and my head was itching for the first two weeks. In my third week after the surgery the only thing that was still bothering me was that my donor area was somewhat numb (which faded around 1 month after the surgery). Other than that, everything felt and looked normal. Luckily I didn’t experience almost any shedding at all. Now, one year later I’m very happy with the result. In my case, there was no noticeable difference since month 6 or so since I didn’t go through the shedding phase after the surgery. When I need to do the next transplant (as my hair continue to fall out in the non-transplanted areas) I would not hesitate to go with Dr. Doganay again. Before: Right after: 3 Weeks after: 3 Months after: 6 Months after: I didn't take any pictures, but since there was no shock loss, it was almost the same as what you see for 1 year after. 1 Year after: -
Hi all. First post after years of perusing these threads. I'm seeking any feedback on Dr. Waldman. I had a recent consultation at his Louisville office after years of intermittent correspondance with his partner, Dr. Parsley, via email. I really like he and his staff, but I'd like to know if any users here have had transplant procedures by him. When I originally because the correspondence with Dr Parsley, it was because he is so revered on this forum, and close to my home. Now that I've waited years for an official consultation at his office, I understand that nowadays he is only in the office very sparsely, and his partner Dr. Waldman is more readily available. I couldn't find a single review of Dr. Waldman on here, so even though I got a good vibe from him and also trust that Dr Parsley would be scrutinous about who he partners with, I'd still like to real-world testimonials first as this is a big decision. Thanks in advance! -
Hi, I got a FUE transplant of 1500 grafts done. The donor area patch is off-centered and visible after day 11. Will this patch cover up ? Will i be able to keep the current length hairstyle or no? Was the harvesting done properly? Please help! -
I am planning a 2500 grafts FUE hair transplant at the Absolute Hair Clinic in Bangkok in August and have been researching Dr. Laorwong's work. I have seen a few positive result of his work on this forum and have not been able to find any bad reviews. I tried to book Dr. Path which is recommend by this forum, but he did not have a available date for me, which would fit my Thailand vacation schedule. Actually it seems like Dr. Laorwong has done documented (counting pictures on clinic website) more FUE than Dr. Path. I would like to hear from anyone else who had good or bad experiences with the Absolute Hair Clinic (Bangkok, Thailand) / Dr. Kongkiat Laorwong? -
Hi all, First of all thank you very much for taking time in sharing your experiences and reviews. I'm long time follower of this forum and have finally decided to take the plunge. Will appreciate if you can advise on below. Thanks in advance 1. On a scale of 1-10, how satisfied were you with your result vs expectation? 2. Do you believe 2-3 weeks is good enough time to recover and go back to work with not enough people able to suspect HT? 3. Did you face any post op complication? 4. Are you aware of anyone of his patients with unsatisfactory result? Any details or forum link to review? 5. Are the results anywhere near what the clinic have posted on multiple forums? 6. Any other thoughts / suggestions you'll like to share? Warm regards! -

Hello, Can anyone provide their firsthand experience with Dr. Robert Leonard? There isn't much on him posted here or on the BaldTruthTalk forum. I'm sure plenty of people would really appreciate hearing some experiences from actual patients. Thanks, -

Heyo all! So I never posted a thread dedicated to my HT immediately post-op, as I made the decision to gather some pics documenting my journey first. But now that I'm 2 Months out, it's time to get this show on the road! My hair story is probably like many others before me. I used to have a perfectly straight immature hairline that was dense and coarse as a mofo. I NEVER thought I'd have MPB, as my Mother's side is pretty set with hair, and while my Father is about a NW4, HIS father died with a full head of hair (NW2 max). Add the fact my hair characteristics are completely different from my pops (his hair is very fine, straight and oily), I was totally blindsided by Mother Nature. At first it started off maturing normally at the temples, and I'm cool with that, I think certain hairstyles look badass with a slight widows peak/forelock. But then I started getting diffuse miniaturization across my frontal third. At that point I was all "Hell no Mother Nature, no take backs!" So I researched for about 7 Months and I finally joined forces with Dr. Feller to help bolster my retreating troops. The Op itself was pretty easy, the anticipation and waiting was the worst part. Maybe it's just me, and I don't think I'm particularly tough, but I've honestly had worse pain from dentists doing a routine filling. And even then I usually just power through it. Anyway, the staff was friendly and talkative, and Feller walked me through what steps he was taking during the process (the cauterization laser is cool), except for when he got in the zone to make all the recipient incisions/slits. Like I said before, the process as my tiny little hair buddies were dropped into their comfy head holes wasn't painful, but the waiting game was! Anyhoo, after lunch from a local deli and my post-op briefing I was set to go! On the drive home, the local anesthesia wore off and my forehead felt like I had crazy sunburn, but that was the worst of it. Sure the staples were kinda uncomfortable, but that's to be expected when you have metal keeping your skin from flapping around. I slept sitting up right, popped the Vicodin and went to work the next day. Overall it's been a great Adventure, and I'm comfortable with the idea of doing it again in the future. Now what most people are probably waiting for: PICTURES! Pre-Op Post-Op: Day 1 Post-Op: 2 Months There are more pics in my photo-album with descriptions and whatnot! Currently I'm taking Biotin, Strontium/Calcium, Multivitamin, Vitamin E and D2. Also applying 5% Minox spray/liquid before bed. Cheers! -
