Senior Member kirkland Posted December 24, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 24, 2020 I didn't know that the slits can be made a day prior to implantation. Wouldn't they close up in that time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The slits are done by the doctor previously so the technicias know where they have to implant the hair. They are not required as you say, but like that you are sure that the way the hair is implanted is decided by the doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks @SLA I was not comfortable with the idea initially, but the people in Eugenix were very supportive and it turned to be a good experience. I am still in touch with them and I hope to meet them by the end of the month so the doctors check my progress in person. I am thinking about getting a haircut, any advice?

I would have mixed feelings as well. The video came out great. Are you traveling all the way from Spain to India just to get checked out in person? No advice around haircuts. I would assume if you trim the donor area, it will make the top look fuller, however, I am not experienced and would check with the clinic. Since you are experiencing very early growth, I think in another couple of months, the top will most certainly catch up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we will land in Delhi we will stay one night there and visit the clinic. We could not go there before coming back to Spain and even if I am not worried about the trasplant I would like to get their opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Mjain Posted January 5, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted January 5, 2021 Great description, thanks @juanjs84. Quick question please - did you experience any side effects with Finasteride in the past and are you continuing to use it? Did you discuss this with Dr. Arika and what was her take on this? Are there any alternatives? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the spanish forum that I follow I have read about dutasteride, saw palmetto and RU58841, but I have not commented any of these options with the clinic because I am fine with finasteride. In the past I tried minoxidil, I believe it made the hairfall more slow but It did not stop completly so I do not use it anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member SLA Posted January 11, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 11, 2021 @juanjs84-I saw your 2nd video on the Eugenix Youtube channel in which you are conversing with a former Eugenix patient and a staff member. So informative and thanks again for doing this for prospective patients. Happy growing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member SLA Posted January 19, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 19, 2021 @juanjs84When I read your write up of your experience, it seemed that most of the extractions and implantations were done by the technicians. Did you find that they were well trained and experts at extraction and implantation? Was Dr. Arika checking in periodically to make sure everything was going well? Thanks!

There were always many technicians around but only the senior ones were working on me (the rest were there to help them). It felt like they knew exactly what to do all the time so I would say that they were properly trained. Dr. Arika and Dr. Shishir were checking periodically and they will always be there at the beginning and end of the session. I would say that they participated on 40% of the extractions and the rest were done by the technicians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
