DGC comes off as a reasonable person to me, so I’m not giving out on hope that he would be willing to find an amicable path forward if results don’t prove out. I think a time lapse video of his process in placing these grafts and showing the after might help showcase why it’s not visible to see all the grafts. I’d love to see an example of these clear grafts that don’t leave a scab and can’t be seen in the scalp post implantation. It would be more comforting. Your hair transplant didn't look bad other than it seemed like there wasn't enough done. Hopefully with the 2nd pass you'll get something much closer to what you were aiming for.

Here it is so far 5500 grafts with your level of baldness you should have a full head of hair…. He is either doing something that causes a low survival rate or lying about the count… I know of at least 10 people now that he says “I don’t know what happened, 1% of cases turn out like this, it’s you not me” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly hope Al is right in that I can’t expect 60-70% more growth from here. I just feel that I shouldn’t be able to see my scalp with this number of grafts. Fingers crossed Edited August 9 by maxgraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
