All Membars,
please form a action group of few volunteers and find out the truth fron the hospital where I work in Mumbai. I shall give my cell number and address to members selected by you to look into the matter. Come out of this virtual world with no name, no date given by the patient. The picture may have been a few days later when part of the scabs have fallen off? Find the truth and these members can then tell everyone what the truth is.

So you loose 3000 - 5000 wewak hair instead of strengthening or growing them and grow back only 2400 in place of these. Net gain is unimpressive.

I think you are just covering up your a**.

Next, how many actual grafts did you plant for Sahil?
This is Sahil's picture. Think well before answering.
Is this 2400, 1200, 800 grafts or you just dont know?



Why do you wish to insult our intelligence by saying something like this...

Quote
No one counts the number of grafts while implanting. We count the density and the size of the strip to be harvested is decided accordingly to yeild the requiered number of grafts.
Unquote

So you mean to say all the Coalition doctors telling the exact numbers of grafts are lying?



Before accepting the fee and performing the operation, do you tell the patient that the graft numbers will be too few? Or is that an afterthought!

Quote
The grafts get laid out far apart and cannot give the new dense looks desired. It does not meet the dreams of the preson.

Doctor, my honest advise to you is to own up that you performed a transplant even though you are not competent to deliver the state of the art.
Thereafter, apologize to the patient for what you have done and, if your conscience permits, return his money to him.

Dear Members here are the patient's pictures taken on 10th day when he came for suture removal. Hope you will see more grafts in here. PLus there are grafts on the sides as well. Some thin single hair grafts are implanted two together for better density. The charge of 1,20,000 is a package for 2000 grafts, additional grafts were offered free. Charges can be verified from my website www.hairlossindia.com. The procedure was done in 1st week of april, hair growth begins in August and I would love to see the pictures by November. Hold on all of you until then.

Dr.Rajesh Rajput,
If it is FUT then why it is not looking like other pictures on this forum? Why the scabs look that big? FUT using Bigger incisions produce bigger scabs.

When doctors count grafts they really count grafts. They don't just estimate.
You know.. they even maintain hair count.

Regarding the package of 1,20,000 for 2000 grafts, It is HUGE. You don't compare your Fees with US packages. Don't look at the currency exchange rate. Look at the difference between average incomes. It is not so difficult to spend $10,000 for an average American but it is impossible to invest Rs.1,20,000 for an average Indian. I can feel how much time and pain it took for Sahil to save that money. I will pay that much amount only for a bigger session with ultra refined work not for a small bad session with poor coverage/density.

My first HT doctor Dr.Ashok Reddy, though I don't like him, I like his honesty. He knows that people can not afford huge amounts, so he performs micro and mini grafts procedure and charges very less. Unbelievably Rs.25,000-Rs.30,000. He is very famous here in Hyderabad and he is considered as HT GOD for poor people. I suggest you to go to an experienced doctor and learn how to do an Ultra Refined HT. If you can't do that atleast try to become HT GOD for poor people.

In a previous post Dr. Rajesh stated that FU were placed in frontal region also yet never any photos of that area? Very skeptical. Does not look like 2400?

Dr Rajesh,

Now compare those pictures to the following:

Dear Members,
the picture posted was a great help to me in knowing who this patient is. I have attached picture taken on 10th day after the transplant. Patients pics are taken few days later when many of the scabs have fallen off giving the impression of less number of grafts. I could not attach 3 picturs in the same reply so I have posted two more replise. See the picture from rt and lt showing many more grafts. Patient was charged for 2000 grafts only, any additional grafts are offered as free. The scabs fall early in my patients because I remove the epidermis which allows a faster healing. Number of grafts is much more. Growth will start only in August, 1-1.5cm per month. A good result is expected in October. I hope patient posts his happy pictures in October.

Dear Members,
we have been too fast to comment and find mistakes in a doctor without confirming when the transplant was done and the pictures sent are how many days after the procrdure, ask if the patient had some scabs falling off already. I am posting some better size pictures of rt and lt occipital areas. These definetly show more number of grafts. Patient has been under the impression that growth will start immediately. But in all transplant cases growth srarts only after 3-4 months. Your friend is as dear to me as all of you. He will get a good result by October. He will post a satisfied picture in October. Doctors on the network will now sopport my work without any hitch.

Dear Members,
unless I could identify who this patient was it was very difficult for me to reply. I am doing 100-120 transplants a year. I see over 200 patients a month. 60 -70% of these grow back 40% of their lost hair with Cyclical Medicine program. The pcs posted by the patient allowed me to compare and find out who this is. Now I can state my sode of the story. See the other views posted in other two of my replies and then pass a judgement on my sicerity, honesty and the care I give to my patients. Wihtout knowing the truth you all have bashed me freely, even criticised my technique? PLease bare with me till October when this patient is sure to show you excellent results and will be satisfied with the work done.

Dear Member,
agreed that hassan and yong are a great team and they are leaders in the field. I am not claiming to be as good as Hassan and Wong. I am not charging like Hassan and Wong as well. But I stand that i have done 2400 grafts. Hassan and Wong use costom made blades to implant the grafts. I use stick and place technique. My picture quality may not match the professional approach of Hassan and Wong. I do not have professionas photographers to click every patient. But do let me know if Hassan and Wong get a hair growth before 3 months, this would be against the natural growth cycle in the bodt which is 3 -4 months. Is it not rational to ask the patient to wait for 3-4 months before complaining that here is poor growth? Wait till October, the hair growth has started by now and will grow 1-1.5cm per month, then we will see what we have achived and you may like to appriciate that such good growth comes from only 1400 grafts as you beleive it to be.

Dear members,
in the prevoius post I was not knowing who this patient is and had no way to analyse or reply. I suggested that here must be grafts in other areas if these do not look like 2400 and I have done 2400 then they must be in other areas as well. Also suggested that some scabs may have fallen off making the grafts look less. Now I know who this person is. I said it may be Shahid and this patient said yes doctor is talking about my case, but he is not the shahid i presumed. With no dates no names false alligations it is difficult to get into my shoes. \

Dear All,

First and fore most Dr.Rajput u have covered only the crown area and not the front area.

Secondly its 6 months now and nothing has grown over my head.

For God sake accept that u promised me that 2400 grafts are more than enough for to get a very good result for my Crown area while other doctors I had visited clearly told me that its not sufficient, thats why I choose to have HT done from you.

Another point is that u have given me a invoice of only Rs 60000 of Hiranandani Hospital.

The other Rs60000, You asked me to deposit in your account for which you never give any Invoice.

Look Dr.Rajput I have nothing against you , Its a lesson for other patients to be more careful while deciding a doctor.

Do you know your false promise has costed me a lot , both in terms of Money and emotional loss.

My friends, relatives and Collegues make fun of me that nothing happened even after undergoing surgery and spending so much of money.

For you I was another patientwith a huge chunk of money , But for me it was something beyond this.

Sorry folks I hardly vist this website now.
It hurts me , i just want to forget this and move on with my life .Accepting this as Gods Will.

Sahil,

I'm sorry to hear that you aren't experiencing any growth at this point.

I agree that at 6 months that you should be seeing at least some new growth though it is possible that you are a late starter. Do you have some updated pictures to share with us?

I do recommend waiting at least 12 months before making a full evaluation of your HT but as stated in this thread, if all the grafts do grow, there will not be a lot of density and you will most likely need a second hair transplant to add the density required to create any illusion of density.

Keep us posted.

Hi Falceros,

Thank you for the support and advise.
I am presently in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on a project from my company.
I would be in Calgary for 6 months till Feb 2008.
So thinking of meeting some HT specilist as per Hairtransplant network.

I have scheduled a appointment next week
with Dr. John Gillespie 5116 – Elbow Drive SW ,Calgary,
His website is http://www.gillespieclinic.com/

I have heard that there is another doctor Dr. Nakatsui in Edmonton , if time permits then I shall also meet him.
His website is http://www.drnakatsui.com/

Hope I am not offending the site by pasteing the websites addresses of these doctors.This was only for qick refrence for other members.

looking forward for next week.Once again thank you Falceros.

Regards
Sahil

Sahil,

Dr. Nakatsui and Dr. Gillespie are both fine selections. Dr. Natatsui does top notch ultra refined follicular unit grafting and is a member of our coalition. Dr. Gillespie is also recommended on our network. I have not seen a lot of information about Dr. Gillespie's on our forum so if you do select him, I hope you'll share your experience and post photos for us.

Please keep in mind that 6 months is too early to consider your next hair transplant. Do yourself a favor and wait another 6 months.

Michael,

There are a number of Canadian doctors that perform high quality state of the art hair transplantation. There are also several in Europe. At this time however, we don't recommend anyone in India.
