I received 2300 FUG with following details- 1 hair - 920 2 hair - 1352 3 hair - 28 So total no of hair i got was 3708, She has given me medication of Finepecia (finasteride 1mg) and Tugain foam (which has minoxidil 5%) for 6 months course. Hereby i am attaching before and after photos.Please have a look over my pics and post your valuable comments, i am waiting for them.
Senior Member RodG Posted November 22, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 22, 2011 Hi, I missed your post regarding your recent HT with Doctor Radha Rani. I hope it went well and you are recovering well. I have just paid my deposit for the HT but I am yet to book my flight at this stage. I hope you get the result that you deserve. Regards Rod
Regular Member hair4ever Posted November 22, 2011 Author Regular Member Posted November 22, 2011 Yes Rod you should definitely go for it. All the best ! Do you want to comment upon my surgery ? Do you think that the work done by doc is satisfactory ? Thanks !
Senior Member Khali Posted November 22, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 22, 2011 Looks good so far. However, until the 8-12 months pass I don't think anyone can decide. Does this doc have a website ? Also how much does she charge per graft ?
Regular Member hair4ever Posted November 23, 2011 Author Regular Member Posted November 23, 2011 (promotional link removed) this is her website and you can check it out mate. She charges Rs 35/graft which is quite reasonable according to the class of work she does.
Senior Member Khali Posted November 23, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 23, 2011 Thanks for the information.
Guest mariewoltz25411697 Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 (edited) You have to realize that you are only 23 and your hair loss is going to progress with age. If you can tolerate the Finasteride medication you must continue to use it. You still have a lot of hair that is not lost yet. You don't want to loose that. But if you can't tolerate the medication, like me, you have to accept your fate. Regarding your transplantation, as you can see, she covered only the frontal hair line. This is going to give you a great hair line. The mid scalp and crown are not touched. I am not sure why she concentrated on a such small area. If you loose hair from other parts, you will be left with only the frontal hair. That may take time, may be another 2-3yeras and you will have to have few more procedures to cover them. Have photo records of your monthly progression. Possibly create a webpage for your self and keep updating the results. Good luck.... Edited November 24, 2011 by mariewoltz25411697
lionman Posted November 26, 2011 Posted November 26, 2011 (promotional link removed) this is her website and you can check it out mate. She charges Rs 35/graft which is quite reasonable according to the class of work she does. Well done on going ahead and good luck with the HT hair4ever. Could I ask how long you spent with Dr Rani discussing your transplant before you actually had the procedure? Also, that rate of Rs 35 is quite inexpensive, so good for you. Do you know is that her standard rate, and were there any extras with it, such as medication, absorbable sutures, or arranged pick-ups or accomodation etc? I look forward to see how you do if you set up a hair blog.
Senior Member RodG Posted November 26, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 26, 2011 Hi, My understanding is that the rate is $1US per graft for international customers. She provides a good level of customer service for international customers which includes organising your travel, acommodation and travel to and from the airport. Her price is very inexpensive compared to other doctors. What we need are more forum posts showing a 12 month post operative result. Regards Rod
Senior Member cardel25 Posted November 26, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 26, 2011 You have chosen a great doc I'm sure you will be trilled with your result. Don't worry about that just try to focus on something else as much as you can. Her prices are really amazing especially when you consider the high standards that she keeps an the fact that she only does 1 surgery a day. I often think of Radha and I'm actually planning on visiting her again in 2013. I have also gotten a HT performed by her and my results are really kicking in. Im so confident that i will get a great result and you should be the same.I will be monitoring your progress.Happy growing 1 mg Finasterid M-W-F. 2,500 mcg Biotin. 1 mg 5 % Minoxidil once a day.

Senior Member RodG Posted November 27, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 27, 2011 Hi Carel25, Thank you for being the first international HTN member to undergo a HT with Doctor Radha Rani and provide confidence for the rest of us to undergo a procedure with her. I'm hoping to get 2500 grafts from the donor area and transplant 800 grafts into the crown and the rest in the front third to give me a denser look but it all depends on my scalp laxity. I'm in the process of finalising my travel plans to Chennai at the moment and her clinic is going to organise the rest of my travel within India. Regards Rod

On the website there is only one HT after which I liked.
Senior Member RodG Posted November 28, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 28, 2011 Hi, Yes there is only 1 web blog from one of her customers on this website. I think he has undergone a second HT with her earlier this year. If you want to have a doctor screened by this website you should consider Doctor Madhu. I'm sure there are other good doctors in India but the forum owner does the hard work and pre-screens a HT surgeon prior to recommending them. Btw I'm in the process of organising my visa to INDIA. The online system is a little misleading but I will apply for the visa this week. Regards Rod

Regards Rod As someone who is considering a hair transplant from Dr Rani, I find what you have to say interesting. Do you mind if I ask if the organisational aspect of the customer service, and anything else, was included in the HT price, or was it extra? I ask because I have travelled in India extensively before and feel capable of getting myself from A to B and finding decent accomdation, and would be content to do that myself if there is a service charge. Also, I looked at the results of your last HT and was very impressed. Your hair looks great! And good luck with the next one - from what we are reading on here, you will be in very capable and caring hands. That said, was there any particular reason for you choosing Dr Rani over the officially recommended Dr Madhu?

Senior Member AllAboutHair Posted April 29, 2012 Senior Member Posted April 29, 2012 Hi I need your updates. Looks like you complete 5 months. Your results will boost many hair loss sufferers confidence (one among them being me). Looking for your updates eagerly
Senior Member akuma Posted April 30, 2012 Senior Member Posted April 30, 2012 I dont mean to sound negative, but how come she took the strip from a higher position on the back of the head? From what i know, the crowns recede at all directions and the area she took the strip out from can be prone to hairloss/thinning.
Senior Member RodG Posted April 30, 2012 Senior Member Posted April 30, 2012 Hi, The donor removal sight does look a little high but to me still looks to be in the face zone. Cheers rod
Senior Member RodG Posted April 30, 2012 Senior Member Posted April 30, 2012 Hi, The donor removal site does look a little high but to me still looks to be in the face zone. perhaps other members can chime in? Cheers rod
Senior Member AllAboutHair Posted April 30, 2012 Senior Member Posted April 30, 2012 looks like little above the regular donar site
