Unbelieveable results, my 'new' hair completely matches what I had, because it's mine to begin with. Dr Sumit Agarwal transplanted in to match the original growth, accepting my request for a slight change in direction that makes it easily to comb/style and looks better. The procedure was smooth, slight discomfort disguised by anaesthesia and mild medication. The surgery is ultra-hygienic, there are adequate precautions for allergies beforehand. Dr Sumit Agarwal has infinite patience and so does his entire team, which I found comforting and most reassuring. I am 53 years old and had requested for coverage primarily in front, and some at the crown and I'm very happy with the results. Donor hair came from the back of my head, 2057 nos by FUE over 2 sittings, 2 consecutive days. Hair was shaved to within 1 mm by the Dr - I was not at all self conscious, it looked like a severe crew cut, which Inposted on Facebook in 3 months and my transplant went undetected! It's gets better (longer) over time, pics shown are after 9 months. HaIr in front and at crown are transplanted. I plan to go for another round after 12 months, to for more fills at the crown of my head. Overall, I feel Dr Sumit Agarwal and Harleys Clinic Andheri West Mumbai deserve 5 stars.
Its been roughly six months since I had the procedure done at Harleys clinic in Lokhandwala,Mumbai by Dr Sumit. At this point I am very satisfied with the overall level of the result achieved.I got around 1200 grafts and taking after procedure care as instructed. I am very happy with the overall level of service within this budget.The staff is very cordial and Dr Sumit is both an expert surgeon and a gentleman. Definitely consider if thinking of Hair transplant in Mumbai.
I had debated a hair transplant for sometime, after a consultation with Dr. Sumit Aggarwal I went through with the procedure. I have had two sessions so far. The first being the longer extensive one. The results are very good for my grade of hair loss. He is not only super professional and understanding but great at communicating and responding to any concerns. To have a doctors phone number and directly speaking with them with any concerns post op is great. I would definitely recommend the practice to anyone.
This is one of the best experience in my life. Dr Sumit is very cooperative and have outstanding knowledge. His recommendations are really appreciated and it's the best for his patients. To my view Harleys is an perfect selection I did and I thank Doctor for his great work and I am totally satisfied and happy about the result.
First of all, I decided to visit Dr Sumit Agrawal as a result of extended research, I realized that I made a good choice because of his good-humoured, attitude and sincerity. About 7 months ago, I had hair transplantation and after the operation I was quite satisfied. He constantly interested in the development of my hair. Now I'm very happy and I really recommend him. You shouldn't hesitate, if you don't want to say "I wish I should have had that before".
I first moved to Mumbai 9 months ago, I've always struggled with my weight have been on many weight loss programmes and taken many different supplements but they didn't seem to work. I was give the contact name for Dr Agrawal to go have a chat with him. I first visited the surgery back in September and I couldn't of asked for a more freindly doctor. Dr Agrawal explained the procedure, how it worked and he also understood why I wanted it done, he gave me diagrames and explained the after effect and recovery process. He made me feel so comfortable I went ahead with the procedure. When I got to the hospital again he was so kind and caring and look after me until the day I was discharged. Dr Agrawal is a very kind, caring and loyal person whose looks after all his patients in the best possible way. His after care is also 100%. I couldn't of asked for a better doctor to make me feel amazing Thank you Dr Agrawal
I was planning for this since long time. I infact tired every weight loss medicine, healthy diet etc for 3 years to avoid this surgery. But all my efforts were meaningless & finally situation compelled me to go for liposuction. I did complete background study about different fat removal techniques available in the market & finally chosen VAZER i.e. Laser + Ultrasonic type surgery. Lot of information about this surgery is available through youtube videos. I then searched the market within India & got offers from various cosmetic surgens and reputed hospitals which ranged from INR 70k to INR 325k. I finally shortlisted Dr. Sumit Agrawal from Herleys Cosmetic Clinic from Mumbai. This surgen was already known to me as I earlier did my hair transplant with him successfully. Dr. Agrawal is very much experienced & specialised cosmetic surgen with international credibility. He offered me really good price & was able to fix my appointment on very short notice. He gave me all the instructions before & after surgery & helped me to set my expectations right before I book my appointment. Dr. Agrawal is very rations & consistent in his approach. He doesn't overcommit not he mislead his clients. On September 17th Surgery was performed as scheduled in around 2 hours time. Surgery went perfectly well. There was lot of drainage of some anesthesitic fluid from back side which continued for 4 days following the surgery. But this was perfectly normal. My recovery after the surgery also went well & was quite fats. Results are amazing! All fat at abdomen, flanks & hips has gone!! My body shape is back to what it was 5 years before!! After surgery Dr Agrawal shown me pictures of 3.5 L of fat which was taken out from my body. I would highly recommend Dr. Agrawal if you are planning for Liposuction in India
I researched a lot for finding the best surgeon for Hair Transplant.Consulted Dr Agrawal twice before booking my procedure.Overall it was a smooth experience.But had to wait for 6mnths before seeing the results.Quite frustrating .Looks gud Now.Expecting more growth over next2-3 months. Nice experience.
DHT hormone is primary reason for hair fall in Male pattern hair loss. But hair follicles in the back and side scalp are not sensitive to DHT hormone. When these DHT resistant Hair follicles are transplanted in the frontal scalp, they retain the characteristics. And grow in frontal scalp forever, similar to the other hair in back & sides. But yes as the ageing sets in, these hair may also thin out because of constricted blood supply.In Transplant only the area which is bald or has lost hair can be grafted. we cant preempt the future hair loss by doing more grafting during first session. By delaying the first session for the future hair loss, does'nt gives any additional benefit.Yes the hair fall in Male pattern hair loss is progressive, and you may eventually loose more of your existing hair. It can be avoided or delayed by following medical treatment like minoxidil & finastride. But in case of new areas of hair loss, you may require more sessions of Hair Transplant in future.Its advisable to get a Transplant for the current hair loss & prevent further hair loss by medical treatments & PRP.
It is important to understand the hair growth time line before planning a transplant. Since the Transplanted hair go into a dormant phase before they start growing. And it may take couple of months for hair growth, it makes you quiet anxious. Typically after Transplant hair start shedding from 2nd week & most of it happens till 6 week. Some of the hair may start growing directly , but it takes on average 3 months when you start feeling the spikes of new growth. By 6months you can expect a significant growth, that starts covering the transplanted area & giving definition to frontal hair line. By 9-10months you can see most of the growth. However some growth may still keep on happening till 12-15months after Transplant. But there are variations to the above timeline, some patients show almost full density in 6-7months. whereas some may not show significant growth even at 3months. In those cases we recommend to consult your physician about the reasons for delayed growth. May be he will recommend PRP treatment & medical therapy to stimulate growth.
You will benefit most from a Beard Transplant, which gives a natural & permanent growth. It will help you get an adult look . But if you don't have much growth already, you can expect a decent coverage of lower face by beard. It may still not be very dense or thick . Consult your physician or hair expert
Redness in donor area after a month is normal. it can take upto 3 months for it to settle. The redness and sometimes itching happens because of the inflammatory reaction of healing of donor area. Avoid rubbing the donor area as it may exaggerate redness. you can apply coconut or olive oil on the donor area for an hour or two before shower. will reduce the dryness. If it still itches, you need to visit your physician for some medicated creams. keep your scalp covered in harsh sun.
Hair Transplant hair initially shed off in 6 weeks time. the new growth starts being appreciable in 3months and at 6 month almost 50-60% growth is expected. 90% of growth happens by 10month. But there are individual variations, some may start showing growth early & in some cases may take a longer time. The final result or success also varies from 80-90%. you can check with your physician, if you need to do anything more/ medications to get fast growth.
