Regular Member Didi Posted November 21, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted November 21, 2009 Hi, Congratulations. I guess you had a FUT with a TRICHOPHYTIC closure? How does your scar look now? I would appreciate if you could please share a picture of the donor scar. I am considering a HT but very confused between FUT and FUE. Thanks.

Senior Member wb280 Posted November 25, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted November 25, 2009 yes didi has asked the exact same question as i had wanted. u did a FUT with tricophytic closure? i had an appt with them and the nice doc insists that thats the way to go, rather than FUE. I was quite intent on FUE but undecided now. I think Dr Pat does not offer FUE anymore... my pt and biggest worry is the scar? Since it has been a few months since ur procedure, hows the scar? Any pictures? thanks!!! View my hair loss website.

Regular Member Dreamer Posted December 3, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi, Sorry for delay in reply. Yes, I had FUT with a TRICHOPHYTIC closure. After going through forum for me FUT was perefectly fine. My scar has heeled really well and it is difficult to find now. I will take few snaps and update on my blog on either coming Sunday or next weekend. Except first 15 days after surgery when there is slight swelling due to cut and stiching creats bump, no one has noticed anything unusual with my Donor area/scar. I think atleast in my case scar will be only visible when I shave my head completely which is anyway highly unlikey for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Maverick Posted December 16, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted December 16, 2009 you have mentioned in your blog that you shortlisted the doc based on recommendations.. are you talking about recommendation on this forum? how u managed to judge that his work is superior to others.. I am planning to go to him.. but just want to be sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member drmstx Posted December 16, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted December 16, 2009 Holy Cow!!! Your HT results are awesome buddy. Dr. Path really did a wonderful job, judging by the 6 month post-HT results that you posted. I'd imagine an absolutely amazing look around 12-14 months post-HT. Excellent work.

Regular Member KaYKaY Posted December 17, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted December 17, 2009 WOW. What can i say..the results are truely amazing...Good progress. Do you think the progress will change from 6 months to 12 months as most of the hair that is supposed to be there is already there? I an expecting that it will stay flat after 6 months? Is it not?

Regular Member confused123 Posted December 18, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted December 18, 2009 Well, If not the quantity, the quality of hair will surely improve over the next 6 months. The hair will get thicker and this will give an illusion of even more density. Also as all hair do not grow at the same pace, many baby hair right now will grow upto its full length. Thanks!

Regular Member Maverick Posted January 16, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted January 16, 2010 Still no response from you ... does that mean u had no basis of choosing him... maybe that is the reason why u cant respond to my basic question... This forum cant be basis for choosing a doctor.. because it is just a forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 This forum cant be basis for choosing a doctor.. because it is just a forum... Maverick, While I'm not answering for the patient you are addressing, I want to address the above comment. While we do encourage all patients to research all physicians they are considering, we do have a very thorough prescreening process in evaluating doctors for potential recommendation. To see how we recommend hair restoration physicians, click here. Because physicians recommended on the Hair Transplant Network have proven to produce consistent excellent results, many hair loss sufferers are comfortable choosing one of them after they've done their own due diligence in researching them. I hope this helps, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member drmstx Posted January 18, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted January 18, 2010 Great Results Bro...you will love the way you will look once you are past the 9 month mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Maverick Posted January 22, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted January 22, 2010 Thanx there Bill for your input....it really did help...did not realise that was perhaps questioning the forum which I wasnt (i guess my bald spot was really itching that day)...since have shortlisted Dr. Path based on the recommendations provided on this forum itself!!!!! Some of the members have been really helpful and forthcoming. And thanx to this forum .. i might be having a hair full head soooon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nand Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hi Dreamer, Not sure if you still following up this thread. I'm also from India, and gone through HT procedure from Dr. Pathomvanich exactly 1 month back (3017 grafts). Though my donor site has healed pretty well, many of the transplanted hairs are still not fallen. As the surgery was done after shaving the balding area (had some miniaturized hair in that region), I'm not sure what percentage of grafts still have hairs not fallen. Just doubting if that is okay.. Could you please suggest on what is the name of Minoxidil 5 mg drug in Indian market that you have been taking, and the usage? Currently, I'm taking Finpecia 1 mg daily (Indian version of Propecia). Will be waiting for your response. Thanks a lot. Nand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helpmyhair Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm from Australia and I had a appointment with Dr Path last year and found him and his staff to be very friendly. I'm still considering a hair transplant with him. The thing is I prefer to shave my hair down to 5mm (in the warmer months) and I'm concerned the scar will be visible if I go ahead with an FUT with him (or anyone else). So I'm now trying to research FUE surgeons as I think this may be a better option for me. I'm certainly keeping Dr Path in mind though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member drmstx Posted January 27, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted January 27, 2010 Nand, it is 5% Minoxidil, not 5mg. The one that I came across in India is called Tugain and costs something like Rs. 400 per bottle (60ml, 1 month supply). I saw one more brand with the same specs and price but cannot remember the name. Your pharmacist should be able to help. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member confused123 Posted January 29, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted January 29, 2010 Nand, The most readily available in India is Mintop Forte 5 % by Dr. Reddy Labs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nand Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Hi drmstx, confused123 Thanks a lot for your replies! It's around 7 weeks since my transplant and there is lot of irritation and itching at the scalp, also few pimples coming up here n there. Doubting if it's safe to use Mintop Forte! Any suggestions? Regards, Nand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member drmstx Posted February 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2010 Nand, I assume pimples are quite common post-surgery. In fact, my doc told me it is a healthy sign to get pimples after a HT. I do not see why you cannot apply minoxidil even if you have a few zits on the top. Should not be an issue IMO.

Senior Member drmstx Posted February 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2010 Confused, thanks for the name - Mintop. I don't know how I forgot that name. I tried both Tugain and Mintop for the first 1.5-2 months after my HT. There is some glycol based compound in both of those and I developed severe irritations, itchiness and rashes on my scalp. I came back to the US and started Rogaine foam and Kirkland Minox with no issues at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
