Before I went to Serbia, Belgrade, I was in touch with Dr. Gorana Kuka. She lives and works in the USA but once a month she does procedures in Belgrade, which should be much cheaper than the same procedure in the USA. Although, in the end, I went to see another Dr. in Belgrade, I heard that Dr...

I can't see that anyone could (or should) do 4000 graft in one go, never mind the 6000. It would be a huge shock for your scalp.

Yes, it's done under anesthesia but it still hurts (my experience, I can't tell you about others). See my post about Belgrade, Serbia, and Dr. Maria. I know that she mentioned that she had a few patients with a scalp scar who wanted it covered and that they are very happy with the result. I'm...

I live close by but never knew it existed.

Thank you. You are right about the sooner the better thing. I wasn't thinking about the technicalities, and thank you for pointing that out. After reading some posts in this forum, I realized that I didn't know much about hair transplant and I never did much research (I'm impressed with Rudy 23...

If you think to spike it up by using the hair gel, I just don't use anything like that on my hair. It looks very natural. I'm afraid, you'll have to take my word for it :). Actually, just came back from the drink with a friend who originally recommended Dr. Maria. We didn't see each other for a...

Uh, you are a well-informed man. I had to google the meaning of Norwood 4a :) Yes, if I didn't act straight away, that would be it. I lost a lot from the front. The Begining of September 2015 my wife told me that's it, now you are visibly getting bald. Unfortunately, don't have any picture. I...

As promised, straight from the wet shirt competition :), and one more front - dry

How long you've been using that? Does it help? Any side effects? So, with the help of finasteride, you are hoping that once you do your hair transplant, you will manage to maintain the same volume?

No, and I never used any medications for hair growth. I remember that Dr. Maria recommended using Regain foam for the first two months (you get her post-op instructions) but that was it.

My donor area is literally like in the last picture, there are no visible signs. After my first op it was visible both, at the back and the front, for about 3-4 weeks. After the second and third, it was hardly noticeable after one week. I put that down to the prp (see above) but it doesn't have...

Will do, give me a few days. I wash it once (or sometimes twice) a week.

I just remember something and I'd like to ask forum members who already done a transplant. Have you had PRP (platelet rich plasma ) therapy? After my first op my scalp was red for some time, but the second op, I asked the doctor to use PRP ( I never heard about it the first time when I went...

Ok, pick 1 is from Nov 2015, the day after my first op. the next picks are within a few months. The last picture is Dec 2018. Unfortunately, I don't have pick right before an op. Also, pictures can be misleading due to position and lighting. For example, pick 4 looks perfect but in real life...

Hehe, it wasn't that bad as it may sound. I guess when you are young, a shaved head is ok, although, it never suited me and she thought that I'm being paranoid and don't need to shave it. Here is their website https://www.mbc.rs/en
