Disadvantages of FUE and getting it done for cheap cost with inexperienced doctors/fake doctors.

[rs9535052]

Guys Beware In any cheap clinics including ADHI is a training institute for Hair transplantation and done by trainees 90% times not by (expert) or main doctors every time in any branches. By mistake if you are stuck with trainees then : More than results my dear friends ---> "Your donor area will have Moth eaten look for long time and you have to wear cap for several months" If u have hairs u can easily cover ur FUT(trychophytic closed scar)..But Moth eaten scars u can't..You will sign a consent form( which has 100+ clauses including clause "No Result Guarantee").
Think to reject FUE if you want more than 3000 / 4000 grafts. If you want to strictly go for FUE choose doctors and clinics wisely and not based on ads, promises..Go for best doctor who is a proven physician and get it done by doctor himself and not by trainees.
Things can worsen if you undergo FUE with trainees and it leaves your donor area bad than FUT. In FUT u can atleast cover your scar and especially with trycophytic closures you are 90% free of scar but with FUE you will get MOth eaten scars and you will have to wear cap for several months..
Per session it is 2000 grafts in an average so you will need to undergo muiltiple sessions with FUE. Results with few clinics like adhi is very slow.
Finally they can do better if you undergo with experts only, but however you should know them personally.,

I don't know a great deal about the clinic you are referring to in India, but i do know that they advertised on Groupon and that would put me off instantly i'm afraid. Did you have surgery yourself with the clinic you are referring to? If so do you have any pictures?

I have undergone HT in ADHI, It's not important what technologies people use for FUE but who does it? is important, If Inexperienced person performs it the very purpose of FUE is lost.
Pros and Cons of ADHI:
Pros: 1)Cost is less for FUE comparatively.2) Free Consultation.3) Free food for patients during the day of surgery.4) Excellent lecture at the beginning of consultation.
Cons:1) Although they claim it is scarless, Donor Area Extraction is not properly handled/planned, It is worst than FUT because Moth Eaten look is a disaster for more than 3 months and then on with short hair cut it looks like Moth eaten.2) They claim all staff are well trained but however few staff are beginners who take part in implantation, which you can easily make out with their conversation, Experts usually doesn't involve in it.3) Multiple sessions for example if you need to undergo 4500 Hairs, they divide it in to 3 days--> 1st and 2nd session back to back but however 3rd session will be done after 20 days.4) They claim it is painless procedure but however the power of Anesthesia reduces after couple of hours and then you will have pain of nail peircing your head, and pain will be severe for atleast 2 days post op even after taking their medicines. According to them They dont prefer further anesthesia as grafts will be misplaced due to it.5) Totally Uncomfortable surgery Beds, and a basic wheel chair used while implanting (keeping your head backwards without support/with basic manual support held by your own hands for 3 to 4 hrs).6) Results are late compared to getting FUE done by expert doctors(Reason being they dont maintain accurate distance while implanting between the existing hairs hence either the existing hair or new hair will fall off permanently due to competition of blood circulation).7) You need to sign a consent form which clearly says they can't guarantee you anything, but their websites claim it's guarateed.Personally I don't recommend ADHI India for anybody as you will endup with Moth Eaten looks and white round scars. Always choose Certfied clinics, certified doctors and which are old enough as possible where they don't use Marketing Tricks..Also a Genuine Doctor will start with proper medicines in the beginning..

Interesting post... Don't go cheap with surgery, especially hair surgery.

 

[Jessop]

What is cheap? There are clinics in Europe that aren't as expensive as inferior clinics(for FUE) in USA.

 

[bullitnut]

Although price is obviously a major factor for most...imo it's better to do your research first and find a clinic/doctor you really want, and then if needs be wait until your financially able to go that clinic rather than compromising. If the clinic you decide upon is cheap then thats a bonus!!

@Topic author:
Hmm, seems like you're promoting STRIP and attacking FUE.
I don't agree with you.
STRIP is an ancient method that shouldn't be done anymore.
FUE doesn't leave any scar, my friend, STRIP leaves a horrific scar, regardless of "trycophitic" or other marketing strategies.

Sure you don't represent a doctor who was lazy enough to not learn FUE, still doing only STRIP in 2014?? And so you must attack more modern "FUE" because other way you're out of clients for STRIP...

For the people here, please STAY AWAY FROM STRIP !!!

Yes, FUE can leave minor "point" scars, BUT THOSE ARE NOT VISIBLE EVEN AT 2-3 MILIMETERS HAIR LENGTH!!
With STRIP, you must let hair grow AT LEAST 2-3 CENTIMETERS for the scar to not show!!!

If you get thin on top down the route, think about it: you will have to keep sides.back long for the scar not to show, that means you are sentenced to the "George costanza" look for the rest of your life, you can;'t buzz all your head to look more okish.


even a good performed STRIP leaves a worse scar than a poor FUE.

And wtf, you say that if someone goes to FUE, he must chose a good doctor.
Isn't that true for STRIP also?? In fact, i think it's more important to choose a top surgeon if you do STRIP.
Well, let's say you have bad FUE, the grafts do not grow, ok, but with a bad STRIP, not only the grafts do not grow, but you will have the nasty scar as a "bonus"...

Anyway, every person decides what's best for him, but, if that;s what you want to do to the back of your head, then go STRIP:

How can you say FUe recovery is more complicated than STRIP??
STRIP litterally cuts a portion of your scalp almost to the bone,you have then your scalp "sewed", and you must go again 10 days for the doctor to get out your stitches, you must not even strain the scar area for up to 6 months, etc...

In comparison, with FUE at 10 days post-op , and hair a few milimeters grown, it looks as before.
YEs, even FUE leaves minor scars, but they are spread on a much wider area and not linear like in STRIP.
Even if you chose to shave your head, after a FUE donor area will almost look un-touched from a "social;' distance, come on, nobody is going to closely inspect your back head from 2 centimeters away...

Of course, if you chose a bad surgeon, and it harvestes too many grafts close to each other, it may noit be good, but, again, it's strange that you think that only in FUE me,thod with a bad surtgeon the results can be disastruous.
Believes me, STRIP with a bad surgeon can leave horrible scars, much worse than FUE.

@rs9535052 It seems like you have done PhD on ADHI India!! If you have undergone hair transplant procedure at ADHI India, share your pictures with us. If not, please share the proof about the things you have written above. In case if you fail to submit all these things, please do not badmouth about the company you have zero knowledge about. ADHI has huge team of expert hair transplant surgeons. They have 21+ centers across globe. Thousands of people have trusted & choose them till now.

Your id looks fake!! If you were not patient of ADHI, how & why did you gather so much of information regarding ADHI? Just to do cheap negative publicity about ADHI? I will call this act as cheap insecure behavior of the competitor clinics of ADHI. I just want to tell you that don €™t misguide people with your useless knowledge
