I like that he incorporates his staff. I’m sure it bodes well for morale and a nice place to work.
This video is the best content. The clinics are vague. Like the post care lines up but they never say why which just leaves you in worry. For example you've said 72 hours is the key period for being able to rub them out. The clinics don't mention this so you're a nervous mess for longer than necessary.
I basically took 2 weeks off from doing anything. Took time off work and didnt exercise at all. Was worth it

This is a very helpful video for those who had recent hair transplants. Thank you.
This is the best post-operative video I have ever seen online. I wish my hair restoration center made one for their patients (DiStefano). Thank you Gary and crew, you are the best!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Love this. Thank you doc
It's weird how many different instructions are found online. From not getting the hair wet for two weeks to regularly rinsing. As a doctor myself although internal medicine, I think yours makes the most sense and Ive been following it. Only slept longer with raised upper body, pure torture without a recliner. Next time I'd make sure to get one (and since I have only very sparse transplants since the area.was so large, there'll probably be a next time). Thank you so much! 11 days post op now and I'm feeling awesome, I don't think I'll still be losing something.

Right! My doctor told me to not do any form of washing until 3 weeks after the procedure. That sounds ridiculous because then the scabs would last a lot longer. Im currently on day 2 and I think my day 5 ill do a light wash with the baby shampoo as he instructed in the video.

I had my hair transplant with Dr. Shaill in India and followed his post-op instructions to a tee. Thanks to his guidance and expertise, my recovery was smooth sailing. Dr. Shaiil Gupta, you are just as brilliant as Dr. Linkov, and I am so grateful for the work you did on my hair. You are a master of your craft and a true innovator in the hair restoration world.
When can we start microneedling? What lengh should we use?
Also is GFC (growth factor concentrate) significantly better (less pain, quicker results) than PRP?
Great video thank you. I had my HT 8 days ago and my doctor gave me same instructions. I have 2 questions. I read somewhere that the transplanted grafts go all together into dormant phase and then later start to grow. But isnt it that all hairs go through all phases at the same time? Means they all go Telogen at the same time and fall out when their time comes? And how long after a HT should I wait to use a Dermaroller?
I was after some advice. I watch your channel and was wondering what my next step could be.. i use Finisteride and Aural Minoxidil. Do you think lazer therapy would help, as my hair is still getting thinner? Or any other ideas would be very much appreciated.. many thanks
Its been two weeks and the pimples in my donor area are not getting better only worse I try the warm compress and it works temporarily

What different advice you have with my clinic in Istanbull. I need to spray a woundspray every 3 hours for 9 days. And at the end of the 9 days i can finally take a shower and work the crusts off. O well, it should both be good right? I'm on day 5 after the transplant. I got a FUE saffire treatment.
Also what if you have seborrheic dermatitis can you still get a hair transplant?
What about using hair fibers after a hair transplant? Toppik etc. When can you use it again? Is it also normal to shed while taking oral minoxidil 4 weeks after a hair transplant? Oral minoxidil has been taken almost 10 months prior to the procedure.

What is the reason of not spraying atp on day Zero?? Will the grafts not suffer without atp???
they keep saying apply ointment to the donor area but what kind of ointment????
How necessary are the oral antibiotics? I was given Levaquin and Metronidozol in 2019 and took one dose of the former and four of the latter. Developed C. diff a week later. Total hell. Treated with Vancomycin but ended up with IBS for years, took me a long time to stabilize and have the gut heal. So I'm very apprehensive about taking antibiotics. I do understand the purpose is to prevent infection. Will these antibiotics harm my gut? Or is it possible to inject them so I don't have to digest them?
Is it bad to wash planted area with nizoral shampoo after 3 weeks?

When you do an FUE and take out the donor hair from the back, can you replace the donor area holes with beard hair in the same session?

Beards can sometimes be used as donor. You'd just skip taking hair from the back of the head in this instance.
My surgeon told me that after 4 days (wearing special non-adhesive gauze), it would safe to wear a bandana. There were two separate ointments - one for the donor, one for the recipient. All crusts were out by day 7-8. I'm entering my third week now - ugly duckling phase has begun. I'm scared that the bandana was a bad move. But I'm trying to just have faith in the instructions.

Great video. Just curious as to why no one seems to mention the donor area nerves "waking back up" around day 5 and how painful this can be. Having just lived it (now day 12) the only reference I could find to this being normal and not a major concern was Reddit. Very odd.

does people have to take finasteride to avoid the new hair from falling again?
@kjjviii1735
Жыл бұрын
The transplanted hair will never fall out if it has been taken from the correct donor area from the back of the scalp. Balding only occurs to hairs on the top of your scalp however I'm sure you have noticed on some bald people that that area does extend a little further down at the back. So as long as hairs have been extracted from the correct donor area than your transplanted hair will last forever. I recommend if you've experienced hair loss to continue using finasteride after a transplant to avoid further hair loss to your original hairs on top.
I’m on day 24 of my hair transplant shedding phase for me because my hair grows fast is it possible that my new growth will grow fast too I got my hair transplant done in the uk.
if you lose a few grafts (up to 10) on days 3-5 bc of slowly massaging the scalp to get rid of scabs (I know, should have been done with water and soap), will that damage the rest of the grafts that (visibly) remain in place? Or should one be worried that the act of having dry massaged the recipient area, could have damaged the grafts?

7:30 I have a question about the swelling. I am on day 3 after my hair transplant and as mentioned I am experiecing swelling above my eyebrows and temple areas. I am taking all the medication that has been mentioned, and on top of that I have been advised to put ice packs on the swollen areas. Honestly, I dont notice any sort of reduction in swellings using ice packs, and my doc has told me that too much swelling could potentially damage the transplanted graphs. I was wondering if that is true, since I have never heard of this before?
