Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted August 28, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 28, 2023 17 Week Postop Update: There wasn't much natural light so that may affect the pictures. Continuing to see growth. Scar on the back looks less visible (I had grafts planted ontop of it) but this could also just be the length of my hair at the moment. It's been 11 weeks of using Oral Minoxidil daily. Continuing with Fin 1mg daily. Derma roller 0.5mm twice a week. Oral minoxidil 1.25MG.

Thanks hey, it's pretty straightforward. Just roll it over your scalp in one direction only. I've heard you shouldn't pass it over the same spot more than 5 times but a quick youtube search will give you a ton of guidance FUT/FUE Dr. Bicer Repair job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astrobhoy Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Great post mate and very informative. Can I ask how much it cost? Just at early stage and have contacted them.... They seem pretty slow to respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pultarmi Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Thank you for the updates! One honest question here. Why does your donor look noticeable thinner than non-touched areas given she extracted only 2.5K grafts? Do you think that shock loss may be still going on?

But I will take thinner hair in the back then upfront any day if that's the trade-off I have to make! My sides have been untouched for any future surgeries so I'm not really worried about it. We'll see how things play out at the 12 month mark :). FUT/FUE Dr. Bicer Repair job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairlossburner1234 Posted September 29, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 29, 2023 (edited) On 5/5/2023 at 6:30 AM, hairlossburner1234 said: Quote I was adamant that I wanted my frontal region packed with grafts as tightly as possible and I would be okay with using more grafts than 1000-1500. She said she could go up to 2500 but she would keep the price she quoted me previously at 1000-1500 grafts. @Astrobhoy mine was an interesting case as you can see here. I believe the price used to be minimum 5K Euro for up to 2K grafts then 2.5 Euro per graft afterwards, I can't remember exactly. I paid 5K as I was quoted 1000-1500 grafts originally and Dr. Bicer honoured this quote even though it ended up being ~2500 grafts. So really I should have paid ~6250 Euros based on the prices at the time. The prices may have changed since then, I'm not sure. I would reach out via Whatsapp, they're usually quick to respond there.
