Christopher Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) Hello all, I am happy to share my repair case with you. Last year, Oct 2021 - I went to visit Dr. Bisanga for a consultation. My case was quite tricky since I did a previous hair transplant at a well-known global Hair Restoration Clinic in 2018. However, the surgeons who did my case totally destroyed my donor zone in the back. They took 1500 grafts, placed it in the crown and left lots of scars. Dr. Bisanga recommended to split my intervention into two sessions of surgery to be more optimal to repair the damages which was done. On this first surgery he took 2400 grafts (2000 from the sides & 400 from beard). 6 months later, you can see the results The hairline is very well made and my donor zone is doing amazingly well. Also it was a superb follow-up experience with Stephen who's always here to give all tips!! Such a great team ! I have my next intervention in two weeks to fill in the mid-scalp. I will share my progress in a few months Edited April 22, 2022 by Christopher 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raphael84 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Many thanks for your post Christopher and congratulations. At only 6 months you are showing great improvement and an already impressive transformation. You clearly had a challenging starting point pre surgery but considering only 2400 grafts were used, this would appear to have achieved a very nice coverage and appropriate density throughout your frontal area. I wish you the best in your upcoming subsequent surgery with Dr. Bisanga and I look forward to following your updates. You look great. 3 Patient Advisor for Dr. Bisanga - BHR Clinic ian@bhrclinic.com - BHR YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcH4PY1OxoYFwSDKzAkZRww I am not a medical professional and my words should not be taken as medical advice.

Great to see you on the right track and looking so well. This is a really interesting repair case thanks for sharing the video guys. What I find really amazing is the improvement in the donor area especially at the back. Was this literally as a result of oral Minoxidil and topical Finasteride? It’s almost like a load of grafts have been placed back into that area. It would be interesting to see what the improvement would be with only one or the other (oral minoxidil or topical finasteride). I’d like to know your thoughts on that? Overall the patient has a far more natural appearance already and no doubt he’ll be almost there after the recent re-visit to BHR. Great job so far 👏 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job so far 👏 Thanks for your input and positive vibes! 🙏🏼 I am indeed taking daily oral minoxidil and applying topical finasteride. But since my haircut is long, I will shift to oral finasteride* soon. In the above photos - it was 4 months of use, I was quite amazed that it worked so fast. It has definitely a much more natural appearance with the grafts placed by Dr. Bisanga, compared to the work of the previous clinic - it's two different categories...

I saw a few horrors from Turkey, but here it's not in Turkey. The master surgeon came directly from the headquarters of DHI Global to perform the surgery in my country (Mauritius). A conversation with the Facebook Page. In the end, they gave me a quote to do SMP at their clinic to hide the scars they left with the intervention... 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
