Regular Member DarlingBudsIsrael Posted March 10, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted March 10, 2015 Hello, Before I will tell you about my second transplant at Darlingbuds, I want to open my words with the fact that I am the Israeli representative of Dr. Tejinder Bhatti. My first transplant was at August 22, 2013, this transplant included 2485 grafts. Before this first transplant, it took 2 years to decide that I want to go for an HT, which technique to choose, which doctor to choose and eventually, I choose Dr. Tejinder Bhatti, I was impressed by the works that was uploaded by his patients and his honesty, from the first mail he wrote that it will not be my last surgery. Time passed and the native hair at the front disappeared, the planted hair stayed in a very good density so I could cover the unplanted areas with the planted hair until I have time for another transplant. I landed in Delhi after a stressed time and very soon traveled to Rishikesh to rest and to see the place, from Rishikesh I traveled to Shimla and after few days, took the toy train to Kalka and from Kalka, a taxi to Chandigarh. In Chandigarh I stayed at Gaur hotel, I like the room and the service, last time I stayed at Altius which was also good. One day before the surgery I came to see the doctor, he saw my hair, we agread that the outcomes of the last surgery was very good and we talk about the areas that need to be done in this surgery. After we talk about it, the doctor introduced David (David Taking the Plunge) that was just before his graft planting phase. At the day of the surgery it was a calm atmosphere, the HT technician took a blood sample for a test, I was very to happy to see that my cholesterol is ok, even though I eat alot of meat, I was also happy to know that I do not have HIV (not that I suspected.. ), we talked again about the that area need to be planted, the docter let me feel with my finger how dense the last transplant is, well, it is dense The surgery itself was very good for me, the calm atmosphere make it the best time for sleeping ! My graft count: Single: 558 Double: 835 Triple: 461 Total: 1854 The day after the surgery started at the clinic for the first wash and some Instructions for self treatment. After clinic I went to the the Sikh monument, Rose garden and Elante Mall. It was a nice day. I came back home at day 5 after the surgery, now I am two weeks post operation. I am attaching to this thread a photo of my first transplant so it will be easy for you to understand what was the issue and where the grafts was planted back than, I am also attaching photos from this transplant. From now on, I will upload an update every month. Thanks for reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my first transplant I update you at 1 month as the "not nice" stage because al the planted hair fall off. Well, this time I decided to update at one month and two weeks, it may be not a nice stage but this stage has a lot of hope in it because in this stage, there are many new hairs coming out Photos are attached.

Regular Member DarlingBudsIsrael Posted May 27, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hello guys, This is my 3 month update. At this it feels like my look getting closer to the stage before the 2nd surgery, there are some new hairs, part of the are thin, part of them are not. I am adding 3 photos, two of them are for getting better perspective of the full scalp and one of them is a close up that can help you see the new tiny hairs.

Regular Member DarlingBudsIsrael Posted June 23, 2015 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 23, 2015 Four months passed since the surgery and it feels good ! If you look at me from the front, it looks very good, a little bit upper, still good, from the top you can still see some scalp. If I move my fingers on my scalp, I can feel the little new hairs that hides behind the longer hair. This photos took with a strong light from the top, this is not the optimal light for taking such a photo but I decided to choose this light, to show you how good it looks. I checked online, after 4 month you can see 20-30% growth, so... I am very optimistic ;-) I will update again at 5 month post op, I am looking forward for it :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
