Regular Member Namur1980 Posted April 1, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 I would like to have some people's opinion about the results. According to Dr. Bisanga, the results are decent enough. The surgery was several years ago. About 2800 grafts in the front, and 1200 in the crown.

Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 1, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 Do you usually keep your hair that short? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Belve Posted April 1, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 (edited) The front has a little improvement than before but still low density..but the crown is same as before…isn’t it ? I can’t see any difference with the 1200 grafts on crown the FUT scar doesn’t look good. It’s too wide and far too visible…you can’t keep your donor short hair with this wide fut scar do you have photos with longer hair on top ?

Senior Member AB2000 Posted April 1, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 From looking at the last photo, it seems you have decent overall coverage, especially considering the amount of area being covered by only 4,000 grafts. Some people wind up using that much for just the frontal portion; in your case it was spread out into the crown. Another factor which might be affecting your result is if your hair loss has been stabilized with drugs, or if you've continued the balding of native hairs. You can add new ones in, but if you're like me and don't take Propecia, your net result is impacted. You might benefit from SMP to go along with your short styling. The coverage is there, so adding the micro dots will add density. SMP can help with the FUT scar as well. My Hair Loss Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Rafael Manelli Posted April 1, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 What was Bisanga’s reasoning for his choice of extraction method and implantation zones? Usually he does FUE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HairFunk Posted April 1, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 1, 2023 You could do with another 3000 grafts, plus keep you hair longer. Also look into SMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see this more clearly on these 2 pictures. Tried SMP but it doesn't stay in the scar and becomes blurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually he does FUE. It was in 2010. I chose FUT because i was probably going to need FUE afterwards. But i was promised a very thin scar at the back of my head and 98% survival rate of the transplanted grafts. Finally i ended up with a 35cm long scar and less than 10% survival rate. I have come across other people with similar cases from Bisanga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is barely any improvement. The whole surgery was a disaster. As for the scar: Bisanga is still offering FUT today knowing that his scars often end up wide and very long.

The yiled seems to be low and the fut scar has streched a lot and looks ugly...Did Dr Bisanga offered a refund of your money or another free procedure? Or just he said that this result was decent for him? Edited April 1, 2023 by BaldGuy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor A_4_Archan Posted April 1, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted April 1, 2023 (edited) Can you pls share your pre op pics and immediate post op pics and month wise pics if you have..scar is certainly broaden much more than usual ....but regarding your survival rate and its a poor outcome or not can only be judged from pre op pics and thn 12-14 months post op pics.... And even bisanga is not a god...this is a surgery and there is always a chance of failure ...evry doctor will have bad case ..and unfortunately you may be one of them by bisanga...its just that good doctors have less percentage of failure ratio and they can give better naturalness than other doctors....

The yield of grafts was very low then..I feel sorry for that… I would never do FUT if I were you cause of these wide scars into the donor. You shouldn’t have done this..

Bisanga knows that many of his patients end up with big scars and poor growth. Why is he still offering FUT today??

These are 2 pre pics from the front. All the other picture are from today. I don't haby any pre or post-op pictures. That's not was he expains. He said the sugrery was guaranteed and that the scar would linear, nearly underexracke with short hair. I have come across othe patients who end up with big scars from Bisanga.

But his promise was very clear. A guaranteed surgery with 98% survival rate. And a thi scar almost invisible with short hair. I know that i go scammed but many other patients have similar cases with Bisanga. When is this going to end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
