Regular Member OmarHT Posted August 2, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted August 2, 2022 Hey guys, I just had my hair transplant yesterday with Dr Gur from Fueciplar and wanted to share my experience with you and hear your feedback of how it’s looking so far. First I had 3384 grafts transplanted. The journey was easy. Once I got to the clinic I met the translator. We then met with Dr Gur and he decided number of grafts and drew the hair line. I kinda wanted it lower but he said that would make it look too bizarre and symmetric. I agreed with him. Then we proceeded with the extraction. Anesthesia was a bit painful but totally manageable. It was done by 2 of his technicians. They felt professional and know what they are doing. After I had the lunch break. Then the Dr came and did the incisions by himself. He was really chill and informative of what he was doing. After, he left and we started with putting the grafts on those incisions which was done again by the same two girls who have done the extraction. This was the most painful for me for some reason. I had the worst headache I’ve ever felt and bad nick pain. They said its a nick spasm from the position I was in. They pumped me more with anesthesia and painkillers but it didn’t do anything. So I had to suck it in and take couple of breaks from time to time. It was then done. It took me almost 9 hours. It was smooth. It’s just the pain that caught me off guard and wasn’t expected. Then I went to the clinic for the first wash. Very tiny burn sensation at donor area but it goes away. I didn’t like the post op instructions as it was a bit rushed to be honest. We spent i believe around 30 minutes while he explained the post wash and I didn’t get to ask all the questions I had in mind. But all in all it was a good experience. Just hating the pain I had to go through hahaha please if you have any questions ask me. And I need your opinions regarding donor and implanted area.

Regular Member OmarHT Posted August 3, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 3, 2022 Thanks guys. Appreciate the encouragement. One thing is when I sleep and wake up, donor are is kinda wet and sticky a bit. Do you know for how long this lasts? Clinic says it’s normal. Oh and here’s the pre op photos. Wanted to post them too but forgot hahah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member OmarHT Posted August 9, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted August 9, 2022 Hello guys here is an update for HT. It’s day 8 after the surgery. Tomorrow I will start to remove the scabs gently by rubbing them by my hand. Things are going great so far. Day 4-5-6 has been quite bad as headache was terrible. I believe it was from the nick bellow plus I was drinking way too much water. Like 6-7 L with being idle at home and not moving. When I cut down on water, headache has been manageable. Other wise, I’m really happy with everything else. please tell me your feedback of how it looks. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member OmarHT Posted September 21, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 21, 2022 Hey there. I just passed the 50th day mark. Still some shedding but definitely not as before. I think it’s going good I’m just little unhappy about the sides of donor area but I hope it’ll be much better. I’m only on fin and planning to start min next month. We’ll see. Appreciate your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted September 21, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 21, 2022 You need to give it a full year before passing judgement on any results from surgery. At fifty days you are not even two months post op. You are looking on point and in the middle of the ugly duckling phase. Thanks for sharing!

Regular Member OmarHT Posted September 21, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 21, 2022 Yeah definitely I’m in no rush. It’s just when one side recovers a bit better than the other side. Doubts start to rise. But yeah, can’t really say anything but great results so far. So let’s see 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member OmarHT Posted October 5, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 5, 2022 Hey guys. It’s been around 65 days since the op. I’m really happy with the results so far. Id definitely recommend them but I’ve 2 comments. 1- left side of my hair looks a bit over used than the back and right sides of my head. I’m still waiting for them to fill in as it has been only 2 months but still, this is something that annoys me a bit. 2- the pain from headache I experienced through out the surgery was truly insane. I could have a bad tolerance for pain but as a measure, they were even impressed how I handled the anesthesia needles without showing any signs of pain let’s say but the headache at the implementation was unreal. Don’t know why since no-one else have reported such headache. I had to take brakes through out the process. I think it was mainly because the triangled pillow they used to rest my nick at because the moment I stood up straight the pain went away. that’s the only down things I’d say but I’ve really got nothing but great things to say about the whole thing. Even though it’s been 2 months, they would answer right away if I had any questions or concerns. I’d definitely do it there if I ever decided to do it again. Oh and Here’s my progress pic. sorry for the long post hahah ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayUK Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Hi Omar, I'm also thinking of Dr. Gur. Do you know the punch size used for the extractions? Is there anything you regret or would have done differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t have done it differently. I’ll post an update of the results soon. The only 2 things that annoy me a bit is the pain during procedure was definitely high but that’s like a personal thing no one else I know had that, also the left side of my head feels a bit over harvested. It’s not so bad by any means it’s just not as clean as the back and right side of my head. Everything else, was really great man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayUK Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Hi Omar, How is looking at 7 months after surgery? Can you update with a recent picture pls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member OmarHT Posted March 28, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 28, 2023 Hello sorry for the late reply. it’s actually going great so far I’m really please with the hair line while the crown area there isn’t much difference than before. the hair isn’t fully dense as the other area but that’s expected so all good. crown area isn’t really improving but clinic says it can take up to 18 months. So I’m still optimistic. one note I had since the surgery till today and the clinic keeps saying it’s ok is the left side of the donor area. It’s obvious it was harvested much more than the right or back sides. It’s a minor negative in an overall very positive experience and results so far. here are the photos, ask anything you ever want to know please. surgery date: 1/8/2022 meds: daily 1.25mg oral min 1 mg oral fin here are the photos of today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
