I am finalizing all my travel plans for my procedure and that's one of the last few things I am unsure about. The eVisa website says if you're choosing the medical visa, it says you must include: "A Copy of Letter from the Hospital concerned in India on its letterhead which includes the tentative date of admission/treatment in the hospital mentioning the name, nationality and Passport number of the patient/ e-Medical Visa applicant." Just want to know by the end of this week so in case I have to ask Eugenix for this they can provide it quickly. Additionally, if you have any major tips for travel there and back home to the U.S.... Is having any form of cash necessary or will I be good with my credit cards? Is food delivery easy (pizza shops, etc.)? I anticipate as a picky eater I will be ordering several meals of fast food/pizza 😁 Thank you. @general-etwan if it's any help my e-visa had both the medical and tourist visa options. I just went with the tourist visa and had no problems. 2 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napes Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 (edited) Your results are amazing. I'm NW7 and about to give up on any hope but after seeing you it's given me some hope. Can I ask what the texture feels like with you having beard donor? Also has your beard healed good and can you notice much difference in density?

Senior Member Bandit90 Posted September 9, 2022 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 9, 2022 6 Month Update All going from strength to strength. I have included some photos of the back of the head at the request of a couple of people, in my opinion the donor is looking untouched saying I had 4000 grafts taken, i'd even go as far to say to it looks better than the pre-transplant situation. . Crown sitting is in four weeks, so my next update will include this. I have also spoken to Dr Sethi about putting grafts above the left side lateral hump to improve the density and transition between the transplanted zone. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't tell the beard hair in the scalp to be honest, it has all been blended in so intelligently. Also, no evidence in the beard that I had 1300 grafts taken, just looks and feels the same pre-transplant. 2/3 days post-transplant my beard had completely healed and there remained no signs grafts were taken. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing results. I can only hope for a result like this. I've been offered to do in two stages like yourself and I'm hoping I could just close trim it in between surgeries and then grow out after my final. Thanks a lot for sharing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member general-etwan Posted September 10, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted September 10, 2022 Donor looks fantastic. It's absolutely amazing they can take 4,000 grafts from there and it still looks impeccable....hoping they can be aggressive with my donor area as well. My whole thing is, if you're a NW6-7 you should theoretically be prepared to lose some visual donor density and you should be prepared to accept that your donor area might not look great post-transplant. That's the trade for hair on top. But this is another case where visually it still looks fantastic, like it wasn't even touched. Amazing! 1 1 Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted September 10, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 10, 2022 Just incredible John. Karl is seriously facing the challenge of his life to hold his title as the GOAT. Your first pass not only looks full and natural, but it has also covered a lot of real estate. Next month will truly be your crowning glory. All all this at still only six months. 👌 2 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great stuff, growth is looking very good, and very jealous of your Delhi trip! How many grafts are you having done for the crown area? I only ask because that's exactly what I want (need) to do, a little 'top up' so-to-speak!! Wishing you a safe journey and a successful procedure!!

Senior Member Ryan Daniel Posted October 6, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted October 6, 2022 Wow John. What a result. I still remember talking to you on the phone just a few weeks after you got it done This result is something people would get after 14 months going from bald skin to thick hair I don't need to wish you luck for the second procedure, I'm sure it will be another great outcome. You still have enough donor area to spare and plenty of beard under the chin! Looking forward to hear from you again once you get it done mate. Have a nice and safe trip in Delhi mate 😊 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Bandit90 Posted October 11, 2022 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 11, 2022 Just to update, I finished my 2nd procedure at Eugenix on the 10th October. I had a total of 2795 grafts (1585 scalp+ 1200 beard) for my crown. Dr Pradeep was able to use some of the grafts to improve the parting corridors and the retrograde area just behind the temples, in addition to the crown. This brings my total graft count to 8,148. Really happy with all the work and how everything went well with the procedure. All the clinic staff where amazing as usual, and again I blown away with work rate and skill of the Eugenix Techs. Hoping my recovery is as seamless as the first sitting. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
