I posted this on another site but thought I'd post it here too.
Just a little history about myself. I went to nuhart back in the early 90's. I was so disappointed, huge plugs and scars. It changed my life. I lost good jobs, had to wear a hat all the time because of what they had done. About three years later I decided to have them removed. So I went to a different doctor. he basically just took some sort of tool I picture to look like a straw and punched part of them out . The plugs were so big he couldn't get all of them out in one procedure, and I was to come back after this procedure healed. I had all these holes in my head, but they actually healed pretty good. Instead of going back to the same doctor. I decided to go to a local plastic surgeon. Big mistake ! This knucklehead takes a scalpel and cuts the rest of the grafts out, and sutchers them closed. I end up looking like frankenstein as one girl told me.
A couple years later i go back to the doc. that used the punch to see what he could do. he recommends going over the whole area with dermabrasion, which i agree to. The dermabrasion makes a huge difference, I'd guess at least a 50% or more difference. But the scars are still visable, but at least there are no huge divits.
I swore I'd never have another HT , but after reading some of these forums and seeing results posted. I decided a HT might be a solution to hiding my scars. I visited 4 different HT doctors ,and decided I felt most comfortable and confident with DR. Feller
I was very nervous when I arrived at feller medical on aug. 24 . This was going to be the fourth time getting a procedure done on my head and i wasn't looking forward to the dreaded injections. I told the staff how nervous i was , and they all made me feel comfortable. The injections ended up being not as bad as some of the other places I'd been to . don't get me wrong they still pinch , but not as bad as some of the other places i have been to.
I didn't have much pain after the procedure. It just felt like I had a tight fitting hat on. The only discomfort I've had so far is trying to sleep. I didn't have much swelling to speak of either.
