Senior Member HappyMan2021 Posted June 26 Senior Member Share Posted June 26 is this a legitimate patient?!? I wonder if this means the doctor who must not be named is back on top again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his hair has improved rather quickly. 1 Quote I was just an inch away from booking a a hairmill based on google reviews before i stumbled upon this goldmine of a forum.

Haha well in reality I wasn’t happy with the result at first (up until month 4’5) but by month 5 I got some volume and hairs got thicker. Now I’m quite happy. I’m taking finasteride and 1 dutasteride per week. Also I noticed that he extracted hairs mostly from my right donor side and not so much from the left, anyone knows why? When it comes to the surgery I felt asleep right away after taking the pills. So I don’t even know if D**** did anything. but anyway I’m happy with the results. Will post more photos month 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Aperez Posted July 9 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 9 So I am not very happy with the hairline. Density is okay but I want a natural soft hairline so I will probably schedule an appointment with doctor Mwamba to fix the hairline. Otherwise kinda happy with the result.

Regular Member Aperez Posted July 9 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 9 I’m planning on using nape hairs for the hairline and some beard hairs for the donor area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 9 Administrators Share Posted July 9 I think it looks good, and it's a little early to start planning a second procedure. Give it at least ten months before you decide on getting a second. Quote I was just an inch away from booking a a hairmill based on google reviews before i stumbled upon this goldmine of a forum.

What do you guys think? If you want to soften up your hairline, I would recommend Dr. Nadimi. I had FUT with Dr. D in Los gatos and needed a second transplant for your same issue. She really fixed the problem with my hairline. I also have a severely large FUT scar by Dr. D in los gatos but I didn't want to waste grafts to correct it.

Regular Member Aperez Posted July 18 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 18 Update 7/18/2024. I have noticed that my right side looks more dense then left. I am still going to wait to see if it gets better. Regardless I will go through a second HT to improve the results. I’m going to wait till 11 /13 months post op before 2nd HT. Havent decided my second doctor yet btw. I have Freitas, Mwamba and Nadimi in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Aperez Posted July 23 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23 Even though my results are not the worst I will probably go through a second surgery. Any recommendations to get a more natural hairline? I don’t mind traveling or money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 23 Administrators Share Posted July 23 Are you in So Cal? Hattingen is coming to LA to do consultations. That said, have you communicated with the clinic? I don’t think your results look bad at all, if its a minor touch-up they should be able to do it free.

I had an appointment with the clinic in July but I couldn’t make it due to my job. Honestly I don’t think it’s a bad result. However, I think I am just being a perfectionist. I don’t think D**** has the skills for what the result I am looking for. Ive been looking into Dr Rahal in Canada, any idea of his results?

Regular Member Aperez Posted July 23 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23 I’m thinking about adding some hairs in the hairline. And then maybe lower the hairline like .5cm with grafts of 1 hair. Also use some grafts for the right donor area which if I have short hair you can see I have done something. With this in mind, I’m trying to figure out who would be the best doctor for my goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Al - Moderator Posted July 29 Moderators Share Posted July 29 Dr Parsa Mohebi always came across as a decent guy to me. He is in CA. I think your hair looks pretty good though.
