Senior Member hair_care Posted July 23, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 Kay Kay how many grafts did you get?. I don't mean to sound negative but I feel that the grafts have been placed extremely far apart and when they do grow out It is not going to give you much density. Set up a blog and get the opinion of other members of the forum. My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Feller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member KaYKaY Posted July 23, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 Guys, I finally uploaded my pictures. HT done by Dr. Puli Ravindra Reddy of Pacific Medical hospitals from Hyderabad, India.Doctor claimed that he did planted 4000 hairs, but, did not give me the exact count. All in single session. Doctor did the Incession, stitching, holes on the scalp, where as helpers did the planting of hairs. Process took 7 hours overall. I am currently washing my hair 2 times a day with medicated shampoo and johnsons baby shampoo and on 1 mg of finistrade (from Cipla) 1 time a day. What do you guys have to say about my progress.

Guest comb Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I have to agree with hair_care. This looks like multi-unit grafts spaced too far apart. Reminds me a lot of Jagdish's first procedure, I believe his doctor was called Reddy, is it the same guy? While this is definitely not the gold standard in hair transplant practice, it could give you a solid base for a second transplant, ideally with a top doctor.

Guest comb Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Looks like you have had some shockloss underneath the donor incision. This should grow back in 3-6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hair_care Posted July 23, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 Comb, I believe that this is the same doc who did Jagdish's HT. By the way, I doubt that he got 4000 grafts because he says he got 4000 hairs! My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Feller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member KaYKaY Posted July 23, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 Hmm..The doctor said that i dont need another HT even if all the hair on my top falls apart. Yes, I think I am having some shock loss. Also, I am feeling itchy near the donor area. and still a little sore. Is it normal?

Guest comb Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 That is normal at this stage, assuming that it is not intolerable. I doubt that this will produce an acceptable density, but I remember that Jagdish looked surprisingly good when his first HT grew, so you will have to wait and see.

Regular Member KaYKaY Posted July 23, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 It is about a month now. Should i still be using the medicated shampoo + baby shampoo or can i return to normal herbal shampoo. What shampoo do you guys recommend? And at what frequency should I wash my hair? I am in USA so please recommend something that I can get in US. Looking at my 24th day pics my HT and pre op pics, do you think my HT hair started to fall off (I understand it regrows).

Senior Member hair_care Posted July 23, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 You can use any shampoo at this time. Wash your hair once a day, that should be fine. I use head and shoulders, but you can use just about any shampoo. Your entire transplanted hair will fall off and start re growing after about a three month resting phase. Just one question though, since you are in the US why did you not consult with a Coalition doc in the US? why go and have HT done in India?

Regular Member KaYKaY Posted July 23, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 23, 2009 I consulted with MHR and they quoted me 4$/graft and this doc in India charged me 1500$. I am basically from India and got it done during my recent visit. My Hair Loss Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member KaYKaY Posted July 24, 2009 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2009 Thanks for the comments guys. I hope that it grows thicker coupled with my original hair. Also, as part of surgery, the donor area was cut for almost 10 inches from side to side. is it still possible to go for another HT in the future? Is it normal to have the transplanted hair to fall off as soon as 3 weeks? My Hair Loss Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hair_care Posted July 24, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted July 24, 2009 Most people have enough donor hair to go in for a second surgery. My transplanted grafts began to shed about 2 weeks post op. May I suggest that if you ever consider having a second surgery , to consult with some top US docs before making a decision.
