Hi everyone,
I thought I'd share my hair transplant journey here with everyone. First of all, I am 24 years of age. I have been receding at the temples since I was about 16/17. My hair loss and my appearance has been bothering me since I was 16 and I have been bullied as a result of my hair loss. My confidence has been extremely low as a result.
When I was 20 I started taking Proscar (Finasteride). The Finasteride has definitely improved the conditioning of my hair and stopped my hair loss further. I have experienced zero side effects as a result of taking the Finasteride. However, I wanted to restore my hairline to the way it used to be, so I knew a hair transplant was the only option. After reading some brilliant reviews and seeing the forum created on here by Supersmooth about his hair transplant experience, I decided to book it with Hair Palace in Hungary.
On 2nd and 3rd of January 2018, I attended Hairpalace in Budapest and had a total of 5500 hairs implanted onto zone 1 (frontal hairline). It has been exactly 2 months since my hair transplant. When I arrived at the clinic on the morning of my surgery, I was greeted by my coordinator (who spoke perfect English), and we discussed the day ahead, I signed some forms, and I picked what lunch I wanted to be served later in the day. Before the surgery started, I had to take some tablets, 1 being a Xanax tablet which helps relax you if you are nervous. I was then greeted by my Doctor, Dr. Koreny Dóra. I must say Dr. Koreny Dóra and her team were brilliant. She was very nice and was always chatting with me throughout the surgery. She definitely made me feel at ease. She also spoke perfect English.
The morning of the surgery involved me laying face down whilst they harvest the hairs from the back of the head, then the afternoon involved placing the harvested hairs into the hairline. If i was to rate the pain level throughout the whole thing, I would give it a 2/10. I literally experienced very little pain or discomfort. The injections to numb your head sting a tiny bit at first, but you get used to them. This whole process was then repeated on day 2.
I am going to share some photos from 1 month before my surgery, from directly before my surgery, from directly after my surgery, 3 weeks after my surgery and now 2 months after my surgery. I will also share photo updates every 2 weeks.
Proceeding with this hair transplant has been the best decision I have ever made, and hopefully by sharing my experience, it will help others make the decision too.
I would appreciate any thoughts or comments or advice that may be helpful.
Thanks everyone
