Yes, before going through with this I never expected to be at this stage at this time after surgery. I think when the second (and last) surgery where around 2000 graft is done, that should take it from over the moon to over the sun 😅. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Woody1000 Posted July 30, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted July 30, 2021 Hi mate, just wanted to ask how Dr Zarev knows how many follicles per graft? Does he and his team use microscopes to separate singles/ doubles and so forth? I personally have put my case forward but unfortunately I have not heard back from him. can’t wait to see your 1 year mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be great to see a update soon 🙏 You certainly are correct on your thinking, took pictures this Sunday at day 206, haven't had time to upload, vacation is over, back to reality. Did a really short shaved fade, so should give a clear picture of donor after 7k grafts.

I personally have put my case forward but unfortunately I have not heard back from him. can’t wait to see your 1 year mark! Dr Zarev does a very thorough consultation that takes 2-3 hours where he goes through evry inch of your head with a micro camera and measures, calculates grafts, hair diameter etc. and maps out a plan of what to take form where during surgery. Regarding how they separate the follicles, honestly I never asked this, I can ask when I speak to him next time. Sorry to hear that you have not heard back from him, I think his backlog is so big right now that it's difficult for him to catch up, especially when he does all the communication himself. I know that he is basically with a patient from 08 clock to 23/00 at night Monday to Thursday. Fridays I believe are for existing patients and consultations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that he is basically with a patient from 08 clock to 23/00 at night Monday to Thursday. Fridays I believe are for existing patients and consultations. I believe he’s told me he will be opening up a new clinic. Seems like he may need a patient consultant. Good be a good opportunity to ask him about that. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Looks awesome I am very happy, I guess it is a bit of hair greed, we did plan a 2-step procedure from the beginning, I didn’t expect this much change from the first, but Dr Zarev knew, he said I would probably feel satisfied after the 7k grafts, and I am, but I feel that if I still can improve what I got a bit more, a little more density at the front and crown, why not.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sener Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hey guys I have not received any feedback from Dr. Zarev either. I think if you want to talk to him you have to travel to Bulgaria 😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted September 7, 2021 Moderators Share Posted September 7, 2021 This looks great. Isn't it so much better to have real growing hair and not have to deal with a hairpiece any more? Even if the transplanted hair is a bit thinner than the hairpiece was it's still so much better, in my opinion, to have real hair. 1 Al Forum Moderator (formerly BeHappy) I am a forum moderator for hairrestorationnetwork.com.

Nothing like scratching your own scalp 😅. But I am glad I waited because for me this type result would not have been possible 15 years ago, during those 15 years I have changed my way of thinking and become more realistic and more mature with age. But I don't regret going the hair piece way first because it gave me a quick fix and time to do my research 😊. Also I will be improving the transplant result with my second surgery in October 🙏. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member kirkland Posted September 7, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted September 7, 2021 This result is just bananas incredible! When I see pics like this, I am reminded that, not too long ago, it was the standard belief that high Norwoods would have disastrous results with an FUE procedure this large, particularly in the donor region. Clinics like Eugenix and doctors like Zarev are pioneering a new frontier in this area of hair restoration. Incredible results @HugoX! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Curious25 Posted September 7, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted September 7, 2021 Outstanding Results, over the moon for you. Donor still looks very strong also, which is great. Hopefully you won't be the last Zarev patient to share their experience and dazzle us all on the boards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
