Ok so it has been 2 weeks since I had my touch up. This was a scaled down version of the original procedure as far as I am concerned. The swelling was gone by day 5, the donor site is healed. Now I understand why he wanted to fill in the front, it really does make a big difference. I'll post pictures

Wow...you look amazing. My eyebrows are too high due to overly aggressive brow lift(s). I want the brows to "start" (move closer) to the side of the nose and also transplant hair below the original brow to perhaps give the illusion of lower brows. Think that's possible?

Hi, I have to be honest, I have no idea! I'm not a doctor and wouldn't dare give out that type of advice. I will say you should schedule a free consult with Dr E if you are serious about the implants. He is the best. Good luck perfectionist (are we all..sigh. :-)

Hi newdo...would you mind if i could talk to you one on one or by email. I have several questions and would love to talk to someone who has had an actual good experience,and who is african american. Most of my fam and friends think im crazy for wanting this procedure.

So I just had my touch up grafts done today and I'm so surprised. I have to say it was almost painless. I'm confused because I remember how excruciating the first procedure was yet this one was a cake walk. Dr E cut a very small area of hair in the back of my head and in all honesty when his staff began numbing me up I only felt the original pinch of the needle sliding in. After that it was painless. That's bizarre because the first time I was struggling. Go figure. I'm home in bed sitting up straight to prevent the fluids from coming down into my face. I'm also drinking lots of pineapple juice to get rid of the extra fluids and prevent swelling. I took a Tylenol 3 and slept a couple hours with no problem. So far so good. I also got an injection in my right nostril to fill in a small indent. That hurt but only took about 15 seconds and it was over. Lets see how things go. Will keep you updated.

I have noticed someone who claims to be an assistant of a doctor posting comments about price and hair grafts here. DON'T TRUST THIS GUY. He sounds like a Nigerian scammer to me. No doctor will transfer 5000 grafts in one sitting. That's impossible. It took 8 hours for 1700 grafts in my case so you do the math. Just remember if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. And last thing, notice its overseas and that cheap price includes 3 nights stay. Smh c'mon son!

Hi NewDo. Thank you for sharing such great detail. Wondering if you can provide the name of the person you're warning others to be wary of, so we can investigate.

I also hope you're ok with modifying your posting title ("Don't trust this guy.") At first glance it appears to be warning about Dr. Epstein, whom you rate 5 stars, and you're in fact referring to a different doctor. Your post shows up under Dr. Epstein's RealSelf profile and other places.

Are you ok with "African American female hairline implant surgery and eye brow implantation"?

Thanks much
