Hair trasplant questions

[Baldnessfalls]

Welp, I just had my first consultation with an IAHRS doctor today and he told me that I, despite being 21 am an excellent candidate for FUE transplantation. He evaluated my progression as well as informed me of what is likely to happen to me in the future. He said that a 1500 graft HT would be perfect to both give me a great looking head of hair, and also thicken it up towards the back. He also gave me a $1,000 discount because I'm a college student. So it looks like I'll be having a 1500 graft HT pretty soon. I'm so thrilled!

Golly! No one responds on this thread.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with his entire procedure. Ask if he requires you to shave down both the recipient and donor area, as this is usually the case with FUE.

Is there a place on this thread where I can look at before and after pictures of HTs?

You will have to scourt the internet. There isn't one central place.

I know you said you have been researching this for 3 years but if after that time you haven't discovered any of the forums that are completely devoted to HTs you need to do more RESEARCH!
TBT has a section of the community tab that shows photos and albums of members. Start there.
There are other forums where people blog about their procedures.
I don't know if the moderator will edit my post but try, The hair transplant network, hair loss talk and hair loss help forums.
I know you want to get this done quick but you are 21 and it's a cosmetic procedure that you will have to live with for the rest of your life. So until you know all the things that could happen (good & bad) be very cautious.

Also how after 3 years they'd be asking about a probable price. I've been researching for less than a year and I've got this shit all down and am dealing with much more specific dilemmas, regarding method and doctor.

I'm not sure what the symbol for "the bird" is on the computer, but I'd flip you one if I did.

Gratz my friend, you should post a before and after pic after your procedure.
