Senior Member Spring15 Posted November 10, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted November 10, 2017 Not looking great for 7 months, but you still have a long way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HG1 Posted November 10, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted November 10, 2017 Hi Chev, To be fair you had a big area to cover. I would estimate maybe 150cm2? Therefore that would give you a coverage of around 28 grafts per cm2. Assuming a successful growth Of 90% of transplanted grafts, you are then down to around 26 grafts per cm2. You had little coverage to start with, therefore the reason for lack of density. Good news is you have plenty of time left for the transplanted hair to mature and hopefully improve in calibre. I had 2500 grafts placed in my hairline, which I estimate was an area of around 60cm2. My figures maybe rubbish, just my thoughts. I really hope you see an improvement soon, others on here have reported big improvements at 12 months plus even. 5024 grafts with Asmed Clinic.

Senior Member chevenowner1 Posted November 10, 2017 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 10, 2017 It does make sense what you are saying, but may be it's me i have noticed the reduction in density from month 5 to now. I am not expecting a miracle brad pit coverage, but was hoping for a much much better result then what it is now. Hopefully like you said, it might improve in next 5-6 months.

Senior Member rickyrixon Posted November 11, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted November 11, 2017 Feel for you man...I can't believe people keep going to this guy... Have barely seen any decent results from this clinic that have been posted by actual patients.. Very concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hyperhair Posted November 11, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted November 11, 2017 start planing your 2nd HT man at a better surgeon. I warned you about Yaman a a year ago but the good news is you have good donor area. Don't overthink it we all got screwed by the recommendation of this surgeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gbhscot Posted November 12, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted November 12, 2017 Results like this are why I hardly come on here any more. Used to think this site was a fantastic resource for informed decision making, then you realize that the recommended Drs. are just those willing to pay them their fees and give them a free tour of their clinics. Patient photos don't lie though, and sadly I feel like a lot of Dr Yamans cases are blood on the hands of HRN admins for ever recommending this guy as a surgeon. Hope you're just a late grower and keeping my fingers crossed for you. I'd try and contact Yaman again (though heard that's easier said than done too). Good luck with it.

Senior Member chevenowner1 Posted November 13, 2017 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Still early in the game with lots more growth to come. As Spring15 stated above, you should have seen roughly 50% growth my now. I personally experienced big changes with m y first procedure between8 and 10 months. Try not to stress. You'll really need to wait a full 12 months before you'll know what your final result will look like. Hi David, what have you got to say about the above post ?

Senior Member chevenowner1 Posted November 13, 2017 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 13, 2017 So, 7 months today. Am i thrilled with the growth so far, i don't think so, i was expecting much much much better growth by this time, specially when i see other people pics at the same stage as me, but hopefully it will improve from month 7 onwards. It just doesn't look look dense at all. Let me have you views please next update at month 8 ps> i didn't have surgery on the crown, just front and middle---4300 grafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Mickah17 Posted December 18, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted December 18, 2017 Hi chev, Do you think maybe your baldness has gotten a bit worse since your HT that's why it still looks thin on top? Still a few months to go with growth . have you been in contact with Dr Yaman recently to show him your progress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member chevenowner1 Posted December 18, 2017 Author Senior Member Share Posted December 18, 2017 i spoke to yaman, he said the 10 month progress is slower than where it should be, so i have to wait until month 12-13 to see what i end up with. I am not sure abt baldness, but i was expecting sligthly better density at this point than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaidosbra Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi mate. I have a similar density to you from Yaman and am around the same month mark. I think where he is going wrong is using that technician to extract the grafts all by himself. It also felt a little rushed while he was doing it. I was under the impression Yaman would do the extractions himself. Furthering my scepticism, the tech that was doing my extractions went to stick a needle in my later for the IV and he even stuffed that up. He stabbed me about 3 times then apologised and quickly left the room. Later someone else came in a stuck it in my arm. Leaving me sitting there being like holy ****, this dude just extracted my grafts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a surgery in sept 2017 .. at the end of my surgery one guy with beard not sure what’s his name .. he told me injcetimg IV ( antibiotics and painkiller solution ) but I don’t know where he poke me and after few minuets it’s swallon with black spot , he told me sorry and got out from room .. I was scared after few minutes Yaman came and try to pushed that swallowed black spot and told me that’s fine .. I am not criticizing there procedure may be that’s a way they r doing procedures.. I am suggesting other people who looking for surgery please do more search before u rush for surgery .. I did 6-8 months search even though it wasn’t enough .. try to message people who had a surgery in past .. at the end heath is more important than hair ..
