Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted September 15, 2015 Administrators Share Posted September 15, 2015 What's up man, I too received an FUE procedure with Diep. Unfortunately I am not so optimistic as I feel some grafts are falling off and the area looks about the same as the rest of my head besides the scabs. How long did it take for you to notice change and did your grafts come out? ? Hey bud, Dr. Diep should have included post op instructions, grafts falling out is normal and tends to happen up to 6 weeks post op. The grafts falling out have nothing to do with the final result, the follicles are dead, but the actual follicle underneath is alive and will grow around month 3. The recipient area may be red for a few months but it will subside. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member Shadow of the EMpire State Posted September 17, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) unfortunately I too am not a fan of Dr. Diep's zig zag hairline designs. Do yourself a favor and type "diep" "and "fue" into youtube, and you'll see some of the best hairline results in America. In fact, I know of no other American doctor who has posted better results on video. That said, I'm not in love with the result depicted in this thread.

Senior Member aWidowsPeek Posted September 25, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted September 25, 2015 Shadow nailed it. Diep's hairline videos show the man knows what he' doing and is one of the best around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member johndoe1 Posted September 25, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted September 25, 2015 I did a 1500 graft FUE with Diep about 18 months ago. Click on my name and you will see a post where I detail it. The guy is legit..I looked at 2 other docs and picked him. In my posts, I esp detail the first few weeks. Yes, your hair will fall out with the crusts still on it. This is expected. And even the existing hair will fall out from shock loss. So for a few weeks you likely will look *worse* then before. In my case I think it was between 1-2 months where things started getting better then the "before"...so be patient. Fast forward to today and I am very happy with his work.

Senior Member E39 Posted September 27, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted September 27, 2015 only a few pics from early on were taken with a flash. all my recent pics are in bathroom with no flash. i understand everyone has their allegiance to a dr. of their choice, which is fine, you're all entitled to your own opinions. end of day i'm super happy and have no regrets with Dr. Diep. thanks for all the positive comments. Long time lurker here first time poster. Results look awesome. Thanks for posting. I had a HT done by Dr Diep in May. Following your experience on here was one of the reasons I chose him.

Regular Member jesse23 Posted December 5, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted December 5, 2015 Your grafts do look good. I'm surprised you didn't experience much pain during the surgery. I like the breakdown of the hair you provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member zona Posted January 18, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted January 18, 2017 hi, haven't posted much since nobody seems to care unless the surgeon is maral or lorenzo , but here are some almost 5 months post-op updates since i figured there are quite a few diep patients here.these pics were taken 4 months and 3 weeks post-op, with flash on, so it's about the worst type of lighting you can get, but overall very pleased with the results so far. There are still some areas that are lagging behind, mostly where the implanted and pre-op hairline meet, but i know with time it will all fill out. As you can see, i've gone quite a ways since before the surgery, best decision ever. Also, i have been blow drying my hair daily after i shower and combing my hair back as i would like to slick it back once it grows out, which is why the direction is going back. ok this doesn't look like the same guy. Am i wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
