Hello gk,my hair transplant is doing just fine.Remember these few points:

1.Hair taken for transplantation from an area X has hair of a certain density.If you have a large area of baldness to be covered,the transplanted hair has to now cover a far greater area Y.This means that the density of hair in the transplanted area is lesser.Simply put-your hair transplant will be an improvement over complete bald patches but don't expect magical results.A famous example-look at commentator Harsha Bhogle's transplant.You can see it's not a complete high density growth;but it's an improvement over his old image!

2.You'll see growth after the procedure in about 2-3 months and by 8 months it's fairly good.

3.I scored a 2 on the Hamilton Norwood scale of baldness which can be regarded as mild baldness so my results are fairly better.Anyone scoring more than 4 on that scale should be realistic and not expect to look like Rudolph Valentino.

4.Bangalore Venkatraman's clinic comes recommended.

Like to share my experince. It will cover all the Hair Transplantion doubts / queries you might have. I am at #4 on NW scale

 

My family has heriditory baldness. Most of them are settled in USA and few of them are doctors themselves.

 

I basically belong to Hyderabad and recently moved to Bangalore 4 years back. I was looking for Hair Transplantation somewhere in near by in the south itself.

 

Read a lot in the blogs and websites and nothing seems to be genuine as everyone is hyping their projections and assuring results with cheaper cost. Thought of having transplant in USA / Thailand initially. I delayed my HT from 2007 to 2009 due to this long search and re-search. Lost 20% extra hair by this delay.

 

Luckly I had to move oniste to USA and had a chance to stay with my uncle who is a reputed doctor in USA. He got this transplant done in India as it was initially at high cost in USA (now cheaper in USA) and also the US guys implant 3500 grafts in two to three sittings. Surprising he got this transplant done in Bangalore. Next to Intell Tech Park ( Marathalli ) which is just at a walkable distance from my old house in Marathalli. The doctor which my uncle referred was Dr. Sreedhar Reddy Pothula ( Pioneer Hair Care ).

 

I really dont know how I missed this contact when I was in Bangalore. We Indians do the better work than US and Dubai and Thailand but we are very very poor in revealing this to the world. Had to say this.

 

I contacted Dr. Sreedhar Reddy on phone from my onsite location (NJ- USA). He was busy in a transplant proceedure at that time. His assitant picked the phone and answered all my queries very patiently. I shooted atleast 20 question and he answered all of them. I was very confident after seeing the results lively ( my own uncle got it done here ). I also got a chance to talk to some of the doctors who got it done (Hair Transplantation) at Pioneer from the same location (NJ-USA) who work along with my uncle.

 

The next day, I received an email from Pioneer Hair Care to call on 01:00 PM IST (sharp) so that Dr. Sreedhar Reddy could answer my queries ( If I had anything left over ). They asked me to send my photographs which I have sent to their email ID pioneerhaircare@gmail.com. I am very thirsty and called him and had five more questions. Below were the answers from Dr. Reddy.

 

1. Is this proceedure painful for common man ( though doctors could manage some pain, I wanted to know if its painful for us or not )

Ans : No. Not at all. You will have only the pinch of needle initially and no pain after that.

 

2. How much guarantee that you can give on the transplant.

Ans : Every 100 hair implanted, 95 will definitely grow. So if we promise you 100 and charge 100, but we will implant 105 to save on the falling 5.

 

3. Will my hair start growing as earlier.

Ans : No, the implanted hair will fall off from shaft and the root which is implanted inside will take nutrition internally and starts gorwing after 3 months. After this phase all the hair will grow naturally and its normal thereafter.

 

 

4. Cost of the Transplant.

Ans : I checked your photographs and you need 3000 grafts. The cost will be 90,000 Rs/-

 

I asked him when my uncle got it done for only 75,000 then why 90,000 for me ? Dr Reddy said, its the recession effect icon_smile.gif all rates are rising high and salaries are dropping down. But he was very jovial. He agreed to get my transplant done for only 80,000 Rs/-. Sorry Doctor, I am revealing your price.

 

5. Can I get back to work the same day , I mean can I travel back to USA the same day.

Ans : He suggested me not to leave the same day. He asked me to get back to USA the next day.

 

 

 

Below is the schedule which we planned and the whole life cycle of the transplant is illustrated below.

 

Day 1 Afternoon - I reached Bangalore

 

Day 1 Evening - I met Dr. Sreedhar Reddy Pothula at his consultation clinic ( formally )

 

Day 2 Morning 7 AM : Blood Test ( normal blood test for sugar etc )

 

Day 2 Morning 8 AM : Donar area collection

 

 

Day 2 Morning 9 AM to 10 AM : Relaxing ( Watched Telugu movie after a long time )

 

 

Day 2 Morning 10 Am to 12:00 ( It was actually 1:00 at afternoon ) : Transplant completed.

 

 

Day 2 Afternoon 02:00 PM : Reached my Hotel which is provided by Pioneer Hair Care ( good facilities including A/C, swimming pool and WiFi but at very low discounted price )

 

 

Day 3 Morning at 9 AM : Visited Dr. Reddy for Bandage removal. Just 5 mins work

 

 

Day 3 Evening 10:00 PM : Started to the airport and reached there by 11:30 and took my flight at early morning 2 AM .

 

 

 

I was given medication for first 10 days. Zovi Spray and anti-dandruff shampoos and some pharmacy.

 

 

Day 10 : Afternoon : I got my stitches removed in USA itself from the nearby dispensery. ( Just 5 mins work , not painfull at all )

 

 

Day 11 : New medication starts from this day for 3 months ( approximately )

 

 

Day 25 : All the hair implanted on my bald area fell down. It was only the hair and not the root. So please do not worry

 

 

Day 26: I sent the new photographs to Dr. Sreedhar Reddy via email and he said its looking fine.

 

 

Day 100 : Small hair started growing on the implanted bald areas.

 

 

Day 140 : Fully grown hair and this hair is natural and strong.

 

 

Precautions : Do not expose your scalp to pollution or dust for first 15 days, Take medications religiously.

 

This is growing even after I shaved the head. My hair line was so fine with ultra-refined technique and I look better now. My hair is now better than Dr. Sreedhar Reddy's own hair icon_smile.gif

 

Please do not worry about the side effects of the medicines, its only a myth that is carried in the internet on the medicines. I know atleast 20 guys here who use the same medicines and they have been using them more than 10 years (many of them are doctors themselves). If these drugs have side effects then US would have banned them long back. ( Note: CIZA drug used in India for acidity is banned in USA but still used in India ). But these hair medicines are safe.

 

 

Do not worry about the hair, HT is safe these days and very much affordable. Stress adds to hair loss so better do not worry.

 

Also, do not waste your time for 1 or 2 years searching for a correct doctor. I have the below list of Doctors who does very good work in India. You can choose one of them. All the three does good work but the only difference here is the price. Choose according to your convinience.

 

 

1. Dr. Manoj Khanna ( Calcutta - India )

2. Dr. Sreedhar Reddy Pothula ( Bangalore - India )

3. Dr. Jeffrey S. Epstein (Miami)

4. Few clinics in Bangkok / Thailand are doing good work. I will update this blog once I get more info from the old customers of Hair Clinics from Bangkok / Thailand

 

 

 

good luck
