28 Year Old, 4000 FUE Grafts, Amazing Results

I felt compelled to write a review because of the procedure I just went through with Dr. Mohebi in his office in Encino. I just received over 4,000 grafts (4050 grafts to be accurate), and I must say, what a pleasant experience it was. Since it was a two day session, you have to be in the office by 7:00 AM both days since the procedure takes a good 8-10 hours total. The first day they performed around 2500 grafts and the second day they performed around 1550 grafts. To give a high level summary, they first take pictures of you, then you go into the operating room and wear one of those hospital gowns. Then administer some anesthia as well as some swelling medicine since your head will swell up during and after the procedure. Then they start to perform the work, keep in mind I went with the FUE (follicular unit extraction), which is very very labor intensive since they extract each follicile one by one. They first go about extracting all the follicular units from the back of the head one by one. This was probably the worst part since you face is laying on the cushion, so theres a ton of pressure that goes on your face for a good 1-2 hours. The pain was bearable but definitely uncomfortable. other than that, there really wasn't any pain from the procedure. After they extract all the follicular units, they start making inciscions into your scalp and then start placing each of the FU one by one. Doctor mohebi creates a master plan and decides the right strategy of where to place the hair follicles. Also your follicles have single hair, double hairs, or triple hairs for each follicle, so there is a certain strategy that must be done to get the best results. Dr. Mohebi is essentially the master planner and the overseer and performs some of the work, there is also an good army of "technicians" who also perform a large amount of the labor intensive work. I must say, the experience was very pleasant, and Dr. Mohebi and his staff were very respectiful, courteous, and very nice and friendly. I only have the best things to say about their professionalism. In terms of results, I will post pictures when the time comes. I just finished my second day of surgery so I am in the resting phase (it takes about 4 days for the implants to firmly attach), and then about 14 days when the hair goes into the "Resting Phase" and they fall out. Then it takes about 6-12 months to start to see the results. I'll try to keep this post updated with pictures as time goes on.
Thank you again Dr. Mohebi and to his wonderful staff!EDIT 09/10/17: It has been 9 months since my procedure and the results have turned out amazing. I have posted my before and my "current" pictures in the photo section of this page. The results turned out great. It was a little scary at first when I didn't see much progress at 6 months, but if you do your research, you will read that the results start to "pop up" between 6-9 months, which it has done for me. If you have any questions, feel free to PM, I would gladly answer any questions about this procedure. I already have a follow up procedure booked for this December, I plan to do another 2,000 grafts, which should help with my crown area. Thanks!
