after the ht surgery update

WORTH IT$10,000
ok, it's been 5 month since my 1st review. i think almost all of my hair grew out. you can def see results now (seems early,but works for me). im'm very satisfied with my hairline, it looks better than my natural one when i was 20. i feel my temples need more density though. so im'm thinking of doing another surgery just to add density.

My 1st advice: be prepared to buy hair gel once your hair starts growing out after the ht surgery. you will need to style it before it fully grows out.

2nd advice: i contacted over 15 different ht doctors across the world before doing the surgery. and till this day i still receive calls from different numbers, messages, fb posts and other spam trying to sell me other doctors' services. i tried asking them to stop, but they say that my ht does results do not look right...??????? how do they know? my hair just barely grew out----sales. those people are harassing you for sales. they will call/message/fb you until you die. So be prepared to see a bday post from a HT clinic in Atlanta congratulating you on your fb wall in front of all your friends and family. or text messages coming in at 5 am from a clinic in NY. gets tiring of all those sales people trying to sell you other doctors' services... one of them (sales person from a very reputable clinic in SoCal) asked me if "i want to become attractive to my wife". That's a hit below the belt, those people don't have any integrity, they just want your money, they don't even care about your hair loss. i didn't expect that and no one told me about this CON side of ht.

The spam is something I didn't even consider... Will definitely use a throwaway email account for all communications, then. Thanks for the heads up!

Hair Transplant

as i mentioned before, i needed a hair transplant since my 20s, but always was too embarrassed to even talk about it. i went to see dr. umar because of all positive reviews i've read, and because dr promised me complete confidentiality. now it's been almost 6 months, and i finally get to enjoy my new look. im still pretty careful about my hair (i wear sunblock on my head every day), and i only use shampoo and conditioner dr. umar recommended me. i look so much younger and more attractive. i'm more confident after the surgery. i would recommend hair transplant to everyone who hesitates, believe me, it will change your life!

I needed a hair transplant since my 20s. First, I took advantage of a free consultation, just to make sure the doctor is right for me. Doctor was very experienced and concentrated on "natural look" vs other doctors concentrating on "too much hair look". I knew doctor wasn't doing just to take my money, he was doing it to help me. He was highly professional and addressed all my concerns. The procedure was almost painless and recovery was rather long, but totally worth it.
