Craig949 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hi everyone, I just wanted to share my experience with my hair restoration surgery I had last week. I had 2000 grafts with Dr. Michael Meshkin in Newport Beach, CA. Most of the grafts were to restore my hairline which had receded severely. The remaining were transplanted throughout the top of my head and crown. The procedure itself couldn't have gone better. The only real pain were the needles of course, but graft extraction and transplant were a piece of cake. My advice Valium + Prozac = Easy surgery I've attached my hair blog so you can follow along with my progress. I plan on posting an image every week or so. Tomorrow will be one week since the surgery and my only concern is the the stitches were the graft were taken are still pretty sensitive and there is a bit of pain. I use witchazel and neosporin twice a day and there is almost zero blood so I'm guessing that I'm experiencing normal symptoms. Take a look at my pics and let me know what you think! Thanks! -Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicoV123 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Hi Craig949, May I ask you how much did it cost you for the 2000 grafts and did you take the financing or was it available? I am planning to have hair restoration surgery in San Diego probably next month, Oct 2010 and wanted to get more info before picking the surgeon. I have talked to 1 doctor and will talk to another 1 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member nervousguy Posted August 8, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted August 8, 2014 I just had my hair transplant with Dr. Meskin this last Monday! He does great work! I plan to give him a great review on Yelp. By following his post-op directions, I feel that I'm healing very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
