Regular Member mav Posted March 15, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted March 15, 2010 Hey folks! As I had mentioned earlier I finally took the plunge after three years of sitting on the fence. I am indebted to this forum for having pointed me in the right direction. I was on the verge of taking a wrong decision when I came across this forum 3 years back. Thanks guys for all the info and also a heartfelt thanks to the various Docs whom i consulted while on the 'seek' mode! My surgery was performed by Dr. Damkerng Pathomvanich on the 15th of Feb. Total number or transplanted grafts: 2505 (479 Single hair, 1647 two hair ones, 301 three hair and 78 four hair grafts) Total number of hair: 4988 Donor area density: 102 % Density of transplanted area: 40-42 grafts per sq cm. Strip size: 26.2 Sq cm. My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Pathomvanich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Mav, Sorry I can't combine this and your previous albums. However, if you add all of your photos to your patient website, all of your images can be easily accessible in one spot. It looks like Dr. Pathomvanich did some nice work on you. I look forward to following your progress. All the best and happy growing :-) Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member mav Posted April 20, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 20, 2010 Hey wb ! wish time flew faster !! It takes supreme effort to not take a look at the grafts every half an hour and will them to grow faster !! On the positive side I am glad I took the decision at the right time. The last two months have been more or less a breeze- just waiting now for the babies to sprout ! I wish you all the best for your surgery and believe you me its gonna be a life altering experience. Not much has changed in the way I look but i sure do feel confident knowing that in a coupla months I wd be looking like I wanted to. Cheers to your upcoming HT !

Regular Member mav Posted April 22, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 22, 2010 Hi wb! Yes the period before the surgery can be quite nerve wrecking. I was fortunate that I didn't get much time to think before the actual procedure as I had been alloted a date six days from intimation due to the a cancellation of a surgery at Doc Path's clinic. Everything happened too fast and before I knew I was done with it The donor area is a little sore to touch but not to the extent of me feeling uncomfortable. Pimples on the hairline are a minor irritant though ! My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Pathomvanich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member mav Posted April 29, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 29, 2010 Pathspatient, Just checked out your blog. i could see some hair sprouting from the transplanted area. Looking good mate. the redness should go soon. would be following your progress with interest as not only we share the same doctor but also more or less the same number of grafts transplanted in the same hairline region. and to top it all we had the HT done within a week of each other happy growing!

Regular Member mav Posted September 13, 2014 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) Wow it's been four years already..!! Time flew by didn't it .. me getting married and traveling a fair bit, so yeah I guess it did. With me all domesticated, time to take care of the pending stuff - an upadte: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/160613-1-session-marked-improvement-dht-clinic-operated-dr-pathomvanich.html I have been to Bangkok for work quite a few times after my surgery and on one of those trips Dr. Pathomvanich and I met for an analysis. He was pleased as a punch seeing my result. In fact this was the most animated, and dare I say, literally grinning version of the good Doctor that I recall witnessing on my any of consultation or surgery 'Wazzups' !! Normally he is pretty stoic,isn't he? :cool: Anyways cutting a long re-introduction short, guys I am totally satisfied with my result, It has been four years and I couldn't have chosen a better Doctor, or a better time for a HT. Would post the present day pic soon, meanwhile I have got a question to ask: "Is FUT still a better bet for a first time patient than FUE, or have the realities changed in the four years that I was in hibernation?" My 27 years old, kid brother is seemingly a Norwood 5A and it's time we shake things up a bit.Would be great to hear from you folks,hope the veterans are still rockin' ! Cheers !!
