Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 23, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 23, 2023 Can you measure the distance from the glabella to the hairline? It seems quite ambitious for someone who can’t use finasteride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was not happy for the hairline he created (far too conservative and high) - eventually I got so frustrated I ended up going Turkey to have it done right. The fact he charges per hair rather than per graft should've sent alarm bells but I didn't know any better back then. Never again. Not to hijack this thread, but it seems as if there’s been quite a few unusual cases very recently where people are questioning the Reddy’s results against the extremely high standard that they hold him to. There’s a few threads on Reddit in particular. Certainly interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always highest levels of density in his work but seems to get great graft uptake from what we’ve seen on here, and ultimately creates great outcomes. I had a consultation with him in 2019 at the Private Clinic. at the time it wasn’t right for me but no doubt he is an excellent doctor. This is interesting to read because when I did hairline design with him, I think it was too juvenile for my preference. He seems to follow the 1 finger above the frontalis muscle rule, but I felt that for my head and face shape, I thought that it would be too juvenile. I think if you're going below the 1 finger above the frontalis muscles, it would maybe be pretty juvenile, but the 1 finger can vary. I think it depends on the face and head shape, for me I felt going well above that would be ideal for my head and face shape. I think for a guy like Paul Rudd, who has a big forehead but no hair recession I could notice, for sometime like that going near the bottom of the 1 finger would be ideal.

I think given where the hair originally is that’s been used as guidance. Shape is fine face is framed well. Maybe a little light on density but he gets great results so I think you’re in extremely safe hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member TheManeMan Posted December 14, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 14, 2023 Update from clinic: "Thank you for the update. Dr Reddy said that it's looking good for 9 month mark. He thinks there will be some hair coming through still and the area will thicken up a bit more. Kind regards," Does anyone think this looks good for 9 months? To me it looks like someone who still needs a HT. My concern is that it was 50% denser at the 7 month mark.

He said it's strange that it seemed thicker at the 5 month mark but advised to schedule in a procedure to touch up in a few months but first to apply topical minoxidil and assess in another 3 months if it goes back into growth phase. Will update this thread in the coming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
