Hello everybody,
It is my pleasure to come back to this forum in which I have been participating in the past since the very first days of it I think, so after have been absent for a while I'm very happy to come back and to see some familiar names again as well as eager to meet the new generation of forum members, :T:
I noticed that after all these years I have never posted my case, so here we go.
Everything started in 2003, I remember that after many years shaving my head I decided to have a hair transplant so after one consultation with a doctor in my area I scheduled an upcoming date for my procedure.
The day of the procedure there were 4 people, and I remember only to get asleep very early at the beginning of the procedure, with general anesthetic.... and after two hours, voilà ! the procedure were finished...... and the secretary/nurse/assistant/girlfriend was trying to wake me up from the anesthesia.
At that time they gave me a mirror so I could admire the good work, and then I realized my mistake ... but it was too late for me..
The fantastic four team were already changed their clothes and were ready to go for a dinner all together after a job well done!
So the nurse told me that I could go home ..... and I was very bad, cold, with tremors and dizziness, but I was sent home anyway, I remember that when I left the clinic I hit myself in the head with the doorframe because I did not know where I was or what's happening, and in that condition I went alone to catch the train back home and I remember that I vomited several times over the way, I'm sure that many people on that train recognized me, to today I do not remember their faces, just remember going on a cloud not very aware of what was happening around me.
Luckily I finally get home, and when my mother opened the door I remember to saw her almost fainted. The rest you can see it below...

2nd. procedure 2004:-Performed at DHI Greece, with Doctor Zontos and Dr Bisanga together, they extracted the old plugs and the result was good in the sense that I recovered a normal appearance but the growth was not full, nonetheless I survived very well with tons of Toppik for the front and skin makeup for the ridding and pitting existing in the skin of the temples. During this period I started laser sessions to improve these imperfections of the skin, the result of this sessions was good and helped to recover the skin of that area.
In this procedure were used 2.500 FUE grafts.

3rd. procedure 2006
-Performed in Belgium with Dr Bisanga, the objective was to improve the density and shape of the temples plus the correction of the strip scar on the back.
To improve the frontal area were collected another 2.000 grafts FUE.
The result of the scar revision was very good and despite the fact that was not completely invisible, the dimensions were sensibly lower and this definitely improved my life quality.
By contrast the result of the FUE in the front was poor and the design not good, so after all I needed another procedure....

4th. procedure 2009:-Performed in HDC Cyprus, the goal was to reinforce the same original area than always, temples with temporal peaks.
The doctor used 2.350 grafts and distributed among the temples, frontline and the temporals, we tried to cover as much as possible but doctor Michalis told me that the donor was not enough to achieve more extractions. I then convinced him to put some grafts from body in the scar, as a test, so he did and planted 50 grafts from the leg in the scar, nowadays I can say that most of them did not grew.

Final result of the procedure with Michalis.
The photos were taken in 2013 before I had an SMP treatment.
This is the scar with the hair at #zero
This is during the SMP treatment
This was the result of the micropigmentation
And this was in 2016 with very short hair
