Regular Member Adam1 Posted August 8, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) I did my ht’s a few years back so I have not kept up on current trends. I’ve been shaving my head for the past 5 years now without a problem and not caring about my massive scar. I have read that body hair (chest etc) never really had guaranteed results? I’m out of head donor hair and don’t want to strip my beard and neck But I can pull from anywhere else for 1 last transplant before I get old and don’t care anymore. search results weren’t very forthcoming any recommended doctors? I’m willing to travel worldwide if needed. Edited August 8, 2020 by Adam1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the spirit! You wouldn't need to "strip" your beard and neck. Just get FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). It's all the rage these days, the kidz dig it. If you're shaving your head then you should definitely look into SMP (Scalp Micro Pigmentation). There's an entire section on this forum dedicated to it, check it out. But only consider the temporary ink (e.g.ahead ink) - the permanent stuff turns blue or green.

Regular Member Adam1 Posted August 8, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2020 My last ht was fue so I’m that far, 1st 2 were the scar. Should be able to search my posts for my results. Shaving now due to original hair thinning and not really caring too much but I’d go again if a dr had some positive results. Gods little joke... hair everywhere except my damn head lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have decent beard hair under your chin then that is the best to use. You won't have any noticeable scarring and you can still grow a beard if you want to. Beard hair works best. EDIT: And you may be able to get a surprisingly large amount of grafts from there. If you take a good look and measure the area it's rather large.

Regular Member Usexpat Posted August 8, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2020 Had mine done June 23rd. took a few hundred, Sorry I can't remember the exact amount, from Jaw line down. Was shaving 10 days after, Can't really see a difference. Few weeks of pimples which have all gone. My chest however still looks like a warzone as they take large cores when taking those hairs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Adam1 Posted August 8, 2020 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 8, 2020 I’m fine with pulling a lot from there as well. I’d rather add on armpit, chest, shoulder, butt, anything else for density. Who is everyone using for bht? I don’t have a dr umar budget for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Portugal25 Posted August 8, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) @Adam1 I had 1887 beard grafts implanted by Dr. Pekiner who I consider the best for BHT mega sessions and you can check my 7 months results that I think are pretty good considering I was totally bald in the crown and midscalp. If you are looking for doctor only surgery with a highly skilled technique (manual FUE using stick&place for implanting) at a affordable price of 2.25€/graft then Pekiner is a great choice. Dr. Sethi and Dr. Arika at Eugenix are also great with BHT but if you want a similar surgery to Pekiner (Doctor in charge of the whole surgery) then you have to chose the most expensive package that costs 2.9€/graft.

There would be a minimal reduction in density easily missed.

Senior Member mustang Posted August 9, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 9, 2020 Dr Mwamba is by far your best bet for BHT Trust me, I have had 13 surgeries. He operates in Atlanta and Brussels. 4 euros a graft in Brussels 6 usd a graft in Atlanta 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
