Ahahaha! 12.5K scalp/5K beard & 2.5K chest. Do we know what the most grafts someone has had transplanted? I think I remember someone having 16k with a majority of it being body hair. 12+ Months Finasteride + Minoxidil 3872 FUE w/ Dr Hasson | November 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This patient left his jacket at Eugenix and it’s known as the lucky Norwood 7 jacket. 🤞He also went on to become a Bollywood movie star.

All up I have been able to use 6,272 scalp grafts which just blows my mind. Other elite surgeons who I consulted with said I would be able to get no more than 2k-2.5k. This is a real compliment to Dr Pradeep and the skills of the Eugenix team. Especially when you consider that I had already lost over 2k grafts from my first two botched procedures. 2 2 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the beginning, in all honesty, I had no intention of having surgery because for a very long time I had just conditioned myself to believe that I was never a candidate because I had so many mitigating factors going against me. I've said this before but the previous years of trust that we had developed (along with the support from HRN) was what gave me the balls to go back in the chair. I firmly believe that after doing years of research that Dr Pradeep was the only surgeon in the world who understood me 100% and was the only surgeon capable of solving my challenges. I was like a rubix cube that he was able to correct. 3 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member AlexMeister21 Posted January 30, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted January 30, 2023 That's awesome they were able to get 3,000+ scalp grafts from each surgery.

I had an idea of what to expect and yet once again everything exceeded my hopes and aspirations. 🙏 I personally felt that after the last procedure one year ago that my scalp donor would be hard pressed to yield very much at all. However it had improved and to my delight we were able to extract 3,062 scalp grafts!!!🤩 On top of that we extracted an added 2,683 beard grafts for a combined 5,745 grafts in total. When you combine this with last year's epic surgery I have now had 14,468 grafts transplanted! Best of all was that Dr Pradeep wanted to put that hairline scar of mine to bed for good nearly as much as I did. Se he lowered the hairline slightly so that it now covered the entire hairline scar completely.🤩 Also of those 2,683 beard grafts extracted, 236 were used to farm into the old donor scars. It was interesting to note that last year we farmed in 232 pubic grafts into the donor scars. When my head was shaved again this time the bottom punch graft scar had disappeared! The top donor scar remained but it was much improved. So I'm now finally looking at a scalp that after so many years of my life since the age of 18 to be looking normal again. 🙌 To say that I am overwhelmed and delighted would be a massive understatement. On top of this I had the pleasure of meeting so many other patients and this time I got to meet most of the staff and doctors. Their is some incredible talent at Eugenix that encompasses all of the doctors, the technicians, to the communication and logistics team, to the drivers and support staff as well. In fact the best way to sum Eugenix up is just that. It is a complete team of pure excellence. It is a success story of being the sum total of all of it's parts. If you take one factor out (be it anyone involved) then the team would not be able to operate at the level that it does. I'll chime back in later but first I'll add some pics. Finally, I cannot thank everyone enough who I have met and communicated with on HRN. It is thanks to this great forum and all of the people who I have had the great pleasure to be friends with and to have them in my corner every time when the chips were down that made my repair recovery from being a scarred, Norwood 7 candidate possible. Quite simply I just wouldn't have had the courage to have gone this alone. I owe a debt of gratitude to HRN and to Dr Sethi, Dr Arika and all of the team at Eugenix. 🙏 Congrats on a great 2nd trip to Eugenix @Gatsby! The pics and experience bring back a lot of similar memories, Eugenix is like a well oiled machine (like a Tesla factory)...NW 3-7 goes in, and a year later NW0 comes out 🤯 1 Follow my Journey with Eugenix (Dr. Arika Bansal) - November 2022 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonetheless, I am excited for you man. Looking forward to your updates. I think the temple additions are perfectly aggressive and will 100% make your facial symmetry shape up and give you a younger appearance.

You know growing up in any suburb in the world, from the likes of London, Mumbai or even Melbourne with a terrible hair transplant, only dreams of reversing bad decisions keep you going. This moment today is directly related back to those youthful imaginings. Anyone who may be on the downside of advantage, running purely on courage and research, means that those dreams just might one day become a reality. 🙏 2 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
