Regular Member nishchd Posted January 15, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted January 15, 2020 Hi everyone, I have booked a surgery with Dr. Nav Vikram Kamboj ,head of NeoGraft Clinic Chandigarh India. I know what you all are thinking right now. Yes I have had 2 surgeries before with the 2 renowned clinic in Chandigarh. Both with unsatisfactory results. I found about Dr.Vikram on youtube doing live surgeries and their patient s making YouTube channels and showing results on monthly timeline, so that made me feel about legitimate about the Dr. Have anyone else here done surgery with him? Anyone? Thanks Nishant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to be on medication, I will try to keep whatever I will have with natural resources , multivitamins and active lifestyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nishchd Posted February 13, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 13, 2020 Exactly 1 month out today, 70-80% of transplanted hairs have been shed. I don't know if there will be more shedding at this point or not. All you can see on my head is old transplanted hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Stem cell augment is a solution which they add in the PRP and inject into the scalp to boost the overall growth, I am not sure how helpful it would be in the end but I wanted the best this time so I agreed to everything doctor has to offer me. Other clinic was Reviva clinic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was the other clinic besides darling buds? yes and SMP is Scalp Micro Pigmentation. Its a kind of tattooing on the scalp to add density. I am considering SMP on my donor area which I know is depleted by now. But I will still wait for 3 months to see how my donor area looks by that time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their all girl staff is very very arrogant. I almost paid my money to them but thank goodness that they showed their real face. I rejected darling buds too. The after care I received from NeoGraft clinic was exceptional, they sent me messages everyday till day 15 to give me post op instructions and asked for pictures. I didn't experience this from the previous clinics, they just did the surgery and took the money, game over. No follow ups nothing. I also had my 2nd PRP on day 15 which was included in the package. But, the only judge will be the results, till then I will not say that I went to the best clinic this time. But I am taking extra care this time, taking meds and good diet.Also applying a serum given by the clinic and castor oil every other day. PS. I am not on finestride, and never will be, I cant tolerate even a single pill. Having said that, my overall health is more important to me than the hair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nishchd Posted February 17, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 17, 2020 Growth Already? Is it possible ? I am at day 35 and can already see some improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nishchd Posted March 21, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 21, 2020 This is Day 62 Update. First of all I would like to say everyone to stay safe and stay at home to end the Covid19 outbreak effects. It is really sad to know what is happening in the world right now. I hope it gets better in the coming days. Coming back to my HT update, Its the 2 month update. I do not see much growth at this stage, all the growth is from previous HTs and may a 10% from the latest one. Head is very itchy so may the growth will start soon. I am following the same medicine regiment as mentioned in the last updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nishchd Posted March 28, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 28, 2020 Just in case anyone wants to see my donor are after 3 hair transplants in 7 years, almost 10k grafts and 72 days after my 3rd hair transplant. Personally I think its not too bad, and I can live with it only if my top grows thick. I would definitely go for SMP in my donor area to make it look a little thicker. World is going through a pandemic right now which is bad, but good for the ones like me who wants to be in isolation after recent Hair transplant. Having said that I DID NOT mean that pandemic should last long, I hope everything gets back to normal and I pray for the people lost their lives and who are suffering from it. Opinions are welcome.

Ive read SMP does not last long in scar tissue such as fue scars. Do you know of any information otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi mate, Yes I have been silently following your journey (just commented today) lol. So yes I am not on finesteride and Minoxidil. My doctor didn't ask me to have so. He said his approach is quite different from others. He prescribed be procapil serum which is newer from Minoxidil and has results for longer run, and other medicines you can see above. Also I must say PRPs helped me a lot to halt my hairfall. I experience zero hairfall since my HT. So I will continue to have PRPs every 3-4 months gaps. I am experiencing some growth also now as I write this at 3.5 months post my HT. Right now I am only hoping that this should be my last HT as I already went beyond the threshold of donor reserves.Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
