RJ1 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Los Gatos California’s Dr. Diep is exceptional at forming a natural hair line. Highly recommend him. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted February 16, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 16, 2022 This looks good 👍🏽 Can you post some more details ? I know it was FUT, what was the graft count ? Do you have any post op pics you can share ? Thanks 🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTomBHT Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 This sounds like someone from Dr Diep's clinic writing a review. The patient photos is from this man in the video below, which was posted a month ago. Also, why is the clinic posting videos in a month by month fashion if this patient's results are already finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Diep has countless threads on here, including a popular and recent one from @WS2020 absolutely ridiculous comment and nonsense. Why shouldn’t they post results month to month to show progression? Do forum members not post month to month? Again ridiculous comment. 1 Quote I was just an inch away from booking a a hairmill based on google reviews before i stumbled upon this goldmine of a forum.

I am a Diep patient I know. He doesn’t need to shill. Also, you have an astonishing two posts but clearly you know about shilling. First post denigrating a surgeon, nothing strange there 👌 Yes I made a new account after seeing this thread to avoid the wrath of Melvin. Unless the topic creator of this thread chimes in and posts his own photos, then I stand by my opinions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hybonix Posted February 16, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted February 16, 2022 Looks amazing! How many grafts were utilized? May we see the donor site as well? 1st Procedure: 3332 FUE Grafts | Shapiro Medical Group | 10.29.20 2nd Procedure: 1908 FUE Grafts | Shapiro Medical Group | 11.13.23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ1 Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) 3-or 4K grafts. I don’t remember exactly. When the procedure is taking place you have the option to leave hair on the table or pay more and add from your donor strip. It’s not an exact known amount when the strip is removed. I recommend starting with FUT then filling in with FUE, or FUT. I’m 13 months in. Pink Redness remains around the scar. I keep the sides at a 4-5 clipper. Some slight redness around the downer sight comes and goes. One weird thing is some of my hair is super curly. No curls before loss. The doc says that too will diminish with time.

Thanks for sharing, looks to be healing nicely.

RJ1 Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 Yeah, I figured it was a troll Earlier. Or disgruntled person. Be careful with those trips to Turkey for a new doo. It’s hit and miss over there. You might end up with a helmet 🪖. Has anyone tried the tattooing. Scalp Micro pigmentation? I ideally would like 1500-2000 more grafts to be super thick. But I’m not looking forward to more healing. I’m enjoying all people staring complementing and asking questions at work. I wore a hat for 10 months or so. No one had any idea. Then after a 4 day vacation I came back with hair. 😂 they all thought I got a full healed transplant in a weekend! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ1 Posted February 17, 2022 Author Share Posted February 17, 2022 The scar looks mostly white now. Some pink. Ooh I recommend a-cell and steroidal injections to shrink/heal the scar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It adds volume. Im sure yours looks good. I doubt it’s a mistake and more of the nature of the new growth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
