My Experience

I'm writing this post because I have often frequented this site during my hair loss journey and I just want to share my experience and gratitude for everyones help. So this is how my procedure went:

This website has been a constant companion for me during my hair transplant journey so I wanted to let you all know how my procedure and everything went.

I went to three different consultations and I chose to go with Dr. Yazdan at the Modena Center in Orange County. There are several reasons why I chose him as my doctor. The most important thing for me was that I felt comfortable with my doctor, and that is definitely how I felt with him. At the other locations I went to I felt rushed and like I was just another one of the 100's. He answered every single question that I had, he took his time with me, everything he said made sense, and I had seen a prior patient of his and liked the work he did. His office was very clean and his staff was great.

On the actual day of the procedure I was nervous at first, but everything went perfectly. I got 3,400 grafts, and what I REALLY liked is that he had a special counter that showed me exactly how many grafts I was getting so I knew I wasn't being ripped off! That was definitely reassuring. I really didn't feel any pain. And the doctor and his staff were constantly making sure I was comfortable and well.

I've gone for post opps with Dr. Yazdan and everything so far has been going as anticipated! I am very happy with my results and I look forward to my recovery journey.

I know that if I have any post op questions I can reach out to you guys, and I really look forward to it!

I am trying to attach pictures but for some reason I can't attach more than 1...if anyone can advise me of how I could attach more I could show you guys everything I got done!

I went to him for a consult too. I liked him a lot. Do you have more updated pictures to show? Maybe reply to your comment and then attach them that way?

when did you proceed with your HT. It looks good although I am pretty sure that you will have to come back for another one in order to acheive better density.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing your experience, that's a decent amount of grafts you got, it will be good following your progress.
