Regular Member DannyDevito Posted November 30, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted November 30, 2023 Hey everyone ! So since I found the doctor on this thread I thought I'd share the progress here with you. I'm currently 25, been losing my hair since I was 17/18, been on fin for the last year and topical min about once a day but finally decided to go for a transplant. The total number of grafts was 4470: 920 Single 2310 Double 1240 Multiple 3000 USD Here are the before pics: Since the donor wouldn't be enough for full coverage everywhere, the doctor suggested to either go with the existing hairline or sacrifice full coverage in the crown for a lower hairline, I obviously opted in for the latter with the option to go back and use some beard hairs to cover the crown later on if necessary. And here are some pictures straight outta the operation bed: Next day after the first wash: By then my face started swelling and I couldn't wear a headband since the temples were done as well, but swelling was completely gone by day 5 or 6. Day 2, after returning home: Day 4: Day 6 (today): S Scabs are pretty much gone and so is the swelling, but donor is still painful and recipient is a bit numb. Please et me know what you think and if anyone has any questions I'd be happy to answer. I'll also keep updating this thread as frequently as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DannyDevito Posted December 7, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 7, 2023 Two weeks update: Pain in donor area is gradually going away, transplanted area still numb. Donor seems to be healing fine except for what I believe is some shock loss on the back of the head? A bit of shedding started on day 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member DannyDevito Posted December 21, 2023 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 21, 2023 Almost 4 weeks now, been shedding for the last 3 weeks, hoping this spot on the back is just shock loss mood: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing was taken from the beard, however the doctor did suggest that if I want full crown coverage I will need to get another operation done in the future in which beard grafts will be used.

Regular Member DannyDevito Posted January 21 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 21 Almost 2 months now, ugly duckling is looking just about as ugly as I expected. Letting your hair grow out for the first time in 4 years made me realize how much white hairs I have now 🥴 (would take that at 25 over being bald anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DannyDevito Posted March 24 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 24 2 minutes ago, Siggy said: Crazy good progress 4 months +1 week 17 weeks since I left the clinic crown is still slow but lots of short hairs had 2 light scissor only hair cuts to blend length now waiting for density which will come in the next 6 months. Donor area looks like nothing was removed from 4 feet away it looks like I have full head of hair started using hair fiber which I don’t think is as common here in the states but was a great addition after 2 nd month to create illusion of density for those about to embark on this journey, hair fibers are your friend check with clinic for timing you don’t want to void your warranty LOL if it stopped now I would be happy but realize that there is so much more to come no post op follow up from clinic but that’s ok when going offshore for procedure like this one cannot expect the same level of care as we would see in the USA. Lots of resources like this forum to gather info and share would do this again with no hesitation with Dr Yaman Looking absolutely amazing man. all that progress in just 4 months wow! Already looking like a completely different person. Can't wait to see the end result. I second everything you said as well, if I need a second procedure I'd probably go to dr Resul again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
