Senior Member alix Posted July 16, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 16, 2011 amazing result. I think this community benefits from more videos & photos from Dr.Rahal's results. he seems to be the best HT doctor at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted July 17, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 17, 2011 Matt so am i right in saying the crown must be growing slower? No shame in that i'm just interested as my crown took a really long time to grow and i have noticed they do in general.

Senior Member mattj Posted July 18, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 18, 2011 The plan was not to cover the crown but wait for a second surgery. Like most patients, his desire was for maximum coverage and density at the front and top. However, enough grafts were obtained to place a few in the crown area too. As Stellar plans to come back for further photo updates, we'll keep you posted on how he's doing. I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.

d-mo Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The bald guy has blond/light brown hair. And the “after” video shows a guy with thick black hair. It seems kind of fishy to me. A more general question – if you do 6k grafts does that leave any more hair more additional procedures. How many grafts do donor areas normally have (what is the range)??

Senior Member Cant decide Posted July 25, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2011 On average, donor areas have about 7500 grafts but I imagine, Steller is well above that. I had a 5200 procedure with Rahal and was told that I have about 5000 left which could be extracted in two more procedures if needed. Nothing fishy here at all.

Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted July 25, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2011 d-mo, I think you'll agree that many people routinely dye their hair. Take a look at my results over the past two years and you will see a variety of shades. David - Former Forum Co-Moderator and Editorial Assistant I am not a medical professional.

Senior Member bonkerstonker Posted July 25, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2011 I think we see a lot of pre op post op hair colour changes simply because thicker hair is mainly made up of terminal strong hair strands which reveal more colour in total throughout. I my self have been noticing colour changes at 4 month post op but my hair isn't any thicker strangely. Dmo there is nothing fishy about this Dr Rahal does work like this on a constant basis to be fair it's that good i wouldn't believe it either if i was new to his work.

The patient 'Stellar' has posted to this forum himself. The colour changes are probably due to the transplanted hairs being stronger than many of the hairs that existed in the balding area pre-op. Miniaturized hairs are often lighter in colour. Then there are the camera exposure differences due to, well, the light reflecting qualities of a bald head. If you look at the photos and pay special attention to the side of Stellar's head pre and post surgery, you'll see that the hair colour (not to mention the texture) is consistent. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/161303-dr-rahal-patient-6228-grafts-fut.html I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.
