Regular Member nw_2 Posted January 30, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) The result is not extraordinary, but absolutely not bad either. Its anyway mindblowing we are discussing this. I think most would be thrilled to have such a hairline. I seriously dont think this has anything to do with 40-45 grafts per cm2. You can clearly see that some hairs didnt grow. There are spots of 0,3 cm2 without any hairs. That's a result that some hairs didnt grow. Of course Rahal have planted there too. He didnt leave those spots open... As for the FUE/FUT discussion. Lots of things have been said about that already. I'm anti-FUT but I do think that % the chance of a better result with FUT is higher. Its just a feelling though, looking at photo's over the years. Yet that scar is just so wrong. Than I rather take the risk that some hairs dont grow. If you are not very bald, like the topic starter than I completely dont understand why FUT, than I would certainly choose for FUE. No offense 1531 FUT. I mean you are barely bald, you could have taken 'the risk'. If there was any risk at all. This result can easily be matched with FUE. Well, its too late now. Perhaps Rahal will give you a free procedure to settle the things. I got 1200 grafts for free with Dr. Feriduni. That's service !

But i wouldn't accept his decition about such poor densidy. ok i understand but i m not a doctor so when he said that s 1500 grafts is ok i don t say nothing because he s the doc but maybe it s not a problem of number of grafts it s certainly that s all grafts don t grow i think maximum 70 % growth and i listen carefully what the said and not 98%%% !!

Senior Member ffar Posted January 31, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 31, 2011 No my friend. They can do this 98%. You know... did you take care about head condition after HT? Did yoi wash hair very gently? Maybe you scratch transplanted hair? Anyway you should go to Rahal and ask him what now. Maybe hi will fix you this. If I were you i don't leve it as it is now. I would do some FUE to get bigger densidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member mattj Posted January 31, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 31, 2011 1531FUT, Dr Rahal has high expectations for every hair transplant that he carries out and he knows that you chose him as your surgeon for that very reason, therefore we consider your disappointment to be a valid concern. It's important that you come in and see Dr Rahal in person. Dr Rahal has previously requested to see you for a follow-up to assess your case and has already offered to rectify the situation and make you happy, including with a touch up session if needed once he has examined you. You have chosen to wait for the 12 month mark to pass before coming in, but you can go ahead and phone the office to make your appointment any time now. You know we are more than happy to help. I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.

Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted July 28, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) Is the 17 month picture just from the first transplant or did you have another transplant at 12 months? I have to say i can't believe Rahal was gonna do a second surgery as you get what you pay for if you wanted more hair than that then you should of asked for more grafts unless Rahal said that amount would be fine i don't see a problem with the first result after 10 months with another 2 month maturing.

Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted August 16, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 16, 2011 Spike are you being serious? You're the first person I've ever heard complain about rahal at the end result. Why have you waited so long to go back and see the doc?

Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted August 16, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 16, 2011 You're not hijacking the thread the thread creator is ignoring questions or is no longer looking at the thread so it doesn't matter. Yes gutted for you mate it looks like quite a few inbetween grafts didn't grow giving it a obvious ht look!

Regular Member fritz68 Posted August 16, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) Sorry to see things didn't work out Spile, realize it must be a total stress. Was there any necrosis/inflammation in the recipient area post-transplant, the type that's sometimes observed in overly dense packed areas? Reason I'm asking is that if the 'z' factor is still unidentified, then it's hard to go for a 2nd HT when one doesn't know what can be done differently.

Senior Member aaron1234 Posted August 16, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 16, 2011 Spile you should start your own thread. You'll get better support from the guys here. We just need more pics, pre-op, immediate post-op, graft numbers before we make any kind of conclusion for you. Stay in touch with your doc! He'll be there for ya!

I'm still around. Yes I've removed all my posts but good news is that I will be getting a few small touch-up procedures. It's gonna be a long road ahead but I can't risk wasting any FU's!
