nwlondon18 Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Hi all, I would like some feedback on my hair transplant that I completed yesterday. I'm trying not to stress out but there are parts of the procedure which I'm not happy about and worrying myself. Please see the pictures and let me know your thoughts. My main concern are the gaps... I've been told this is roughly 3000 grafts however, the surgery have refused to give me a number so far which is worrying...

Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 They refused to give you actual graft count ? What was the plan ? I’m guessing you must have agreed and paid for a certain amount. To me it does not look like they have blended it in with your existing hair.

Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 Did the Dr do any of the steps ? Which parts did the techs do ? Thanks 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 Unlimited grafts is such a poor explanation from them. Personally I would say it looks less than 3000. How long was your day ? It seems to have heavily scabbed already, was this just the last 24 hours ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 Usually the clinic would provide a graft count and let you know how many were singles, doubles, triples and quad grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I've been scammed to some sort of extent. How many grafts do you estimate it roughly to be? My day was around 8 hours and yes, it has been 24 hours. Is this normal?

Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 I’m not a fan of such clinics as “unlimited grafts” and it’s difficult to say just how many grafts have been done. To be honest it does look like poor work. Could you possibly show us anymore pics ? Like your donor area. And pre HT pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member ITA Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 Reading a few Google reviews about this clinic it doesn't seem very reliable, @nwlondon18 why did you choose to go to them? @JohnAC71 when you say that usually the clinics give the number of grafts, categorizing them in double, triple, quadruple or multiple, this is done by the level clinics, not the hair mills, Cinik, for example, does not.

Here in the Uk it is disappointing as most of the clinics (even low level) give this information about the graft count and breakdown. A “unlimited graft” clinic is rare. Seems this a one person a day hair transplant but mostly tech driven still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted February 23, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 23, 2021 Of course what else is concerning is how do we know what grafts were placed for the hairline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
