I started to notice my hair loss a couple of years back. Hair loss had tremendously lowered my self-esteem, both physically and emotionally. I attempted to hide my hair by wearing hats at all times. This method, in turn, worsened my condition. I had tried many different medications and natural remedies, but to no avail. I spent about two years researching different surgeons. I knew that Dr. Diep was the right surgeon for me after I ran across his YouTube channel and reviews. He seems to be very knowledgeable in this field.
On the day of the surgery, the nurse had me filled out some paperwork and wait for the arrival of the doctor. Once he arrived, we spent over half an hour drawing my hairline and going over all my last minute questions. He was very patient and knowledgeable in answering all of my questions and concerns that I had for him. He also gave me some medications to help ease my nervousness. Once the procedure proceeded, I immediately fell asleep and could not remember much for the first half of the procedure. His staffs were also very educated and patiently explained what they were doing as the procedure continued along. At the end of the procedure, a nurse went over the post-op instructions with me and I was also given copies of the instructions, medications, and supplies to bring home. I had almost 2,000 hair grafts transplanted into my head.
For the next three days, a staff would wash my hair and carefully explained the post-op instructions to me. I was also given Dr. Diep’s personal cell phone number. Dr. Diep was always accessible whenever I needed to speak with him. He would immediately answer all my inquiries through text messages and phone calls. He did not make me feel that I was a bother to him.
I went back to work after one week when all my swelling has subsided. The transplanted hairs fell off about three weeks after surgery. It broke my heart to see the transplanted hair gone. I was starting to get used to finally having hair again. I was happy to see some hair growth after six months. The majority of my hair grew as it got closer to the twelve month period.
Having a new set of hair had helped with my self-esteem. I no longer have to hide under a facade. My acquaintances continuously commented on how my looks have changed. They are not aware of my hair transplant unless I personally tell them. I am very open about my experience since I would want others to also experience such a life changing procedure. Although it was a hard and long enduring process, it was very well worth it.
