Got HT. Unsatisfied. What next?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm a South Asian man that got a HT (3900 grafts as per them) abt 8.5 months ago. I needed/wanted HT for balding scalp. 8.5 months on and my results have been very disappointing. I'm probably being impatient but this was yet another run-of-the-mill clinic in Turkey.

 

I'm really confused about what I should do next. Shaving my head isn't an option as bald headed guys aren't well received in my culture.

 

I do use Caboki at times and while it does wonders for functions and what not, it's not a permanent solution.

 

I've thought about SMP or hair system (wig?) but SMP doesn't seem to be easily available in South Asia. Hair system seems extremely pricey. A clinic nearby quoted 300 dollars and it's supposed to last 6-8 weeks.

 

I don't really know what I seek via this thread. I suppose, a bit of support or encouraging words.

 

I'm really frustrated and disappointed with my decision of going to Istanbul. I'm well aware of other reputed docs but I couldn't afford to drop 10-20k for HT.

Do you have any pics that you can present so we can see your result?

 

It's hard to comment without seeing what you are disappointed with.
