Senior Member Spanker Posted July 15, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 15, 2013 Hey Spanker, if that is the case, do you think there is a possibility that it might work a second time around? Well, I am not a doctor, so I really don't know. I don't remember you saying that you had necrosis, so that is a good sign. Were I in your place, and planned on doing it in that area, I personally would plant at about half the density that I was ultimately wanting and do it in a 2 step process, allowing less damage in the recipient and less competition for vascularization. Again, I am not a doctor, this is just what I would do if it were my head.

Without seeing your pics and the current state, it's not possible to safely comment on anything. From what I remember the cost of a scalp graft is INR 70 and INR 150 for BHT (check the latest rates from his website). Dr. Bhatti is a caring doc and he will give you the best possible and realistic advise. If you are looking for a large session he might split it between 2 or even 3 days. His email id and other contact details are mentioned on his website. If you struggle to find it let me know and I'll PM them to you. My suggestion, email your pics to Dr. Bhatti and let him suggest the best possible solution to you. You have shortlisted the right doctor, now just spend some time doing a combined assessment and setting realistic targets for your HT. Best of luck! > March '09 - Dissatisfactory 650 FUE > December '12 - 2151 FUE with Dr. Bhatti (http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/168700-2151-fue-grafts-dr-tejinder-bhatti-darling-buds-%96-23rd-dec-2012-a.html) > September '13 - 1720 FUE with Dr. Bhatti (http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/172163-hair-transplant-2-dr-bhatti-1720-fue-sep-13-a.html) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member LondonHTseeker Posted July 25, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2013 looking good so far Let's be realistic here. Shane has had no growth in the middle of his head which isn't good for 7 months. Expecting more hair to come through now is false hope really. But it seems Dr Bhatti is a good and ethical surgeon who will re-do his work. If I were you Shane I'd book another op with him ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the plan bro. Going to Dr.Bhatti again in the first week of Aug, he agreed that the results were not as per expectations. Having said that, I've definitely lost precious hair grafts in the first procedure and that hurts. My crown is empty and I was planning to use the remaining grafts for the crown. Now, these would have to be used for the mid-scalp and hairline. I hope everything falls in place this time around....... > March '09 - Dissatisfactory 650 FUE > December '12 - 2151 FUE with Dr. Bhatti (http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/168700-2151-fue-grafts-dr-tejinder-bhatti-darling-buds-%96-23rd-dec-2012-a.html) > September '13 - 1720 FUE with Dr. Bhatti (http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/172163-hair-transplant-2-dr-bhatti-1720-fue-sep-13-a.html) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member agenteye Posted July 26, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 26, 2013 Did Dr. Bhatti say how many grafts he's planning on using this time, or how many you have left in your donor? It's so odd that it didn't grow in the mid-scalp......it definitely seemed to make a positive/nice difference for you everywhere else. Hope your second procedure goes off better for you buddy.

Senior Member Mickey85 Posted July 27, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted July 27, 2013 I'm seeing too many people rushing to Dr Bhatti because of his insane rates for FUE but I implore people to wait for more consistent results. Results so far have been scarce and while he may back up his work, grafts are a finite luxury. The only 2 threads you will ever need: Revamped Advantages/Disadvantages of FUE. Myths dispelled.

Regular Member andreasemiglia Posted September 8, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted September 8, 2013 Im amazed the Dr would consider another procedure 6 months after the Op. You should wait 12-15 months. As a previous poster said the grafts could easily still be in a state of rest due to trauma and could sprout right up until 12 months. I think you need to wait it out. Although it dosent get stated too often i have seen a lot of cases where mid scalp (much like crowns) lag behind hairlines. Vascularity and larger hair groupings could be the reason amongst others. excuse, but between a transplant and other is not enough to wait only four months?

Senior Member shane13 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 9, 2013 excuse, but between a transplant and other is not enough to wait only four months? In my case, the gap was 9 months.

Will your 2nd procedure be addressing a new area of scalp? While I've heard that FUE grafts tend to grow early, at 4 months much of your 1st transplant will be invisible.

In the front area will be a new translpant area. In the crown area will be a thickening, beacuse here already I have grafts from the first transplant. "How will he avoid transecting those grafts?" I really don't know. But Dr. Bhatti says that 4 months are enough to make a new transplant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
