    Are people that have done a hair transplant surgery happy with the results?

    I am a guy, about 30 years old and I am not completely bald but have lost some hair on top of my head.

    I am planning to do a hair transplant surgery where they take a strip from the back of my head which contains about 2600 grafts and plant on different places on top of my head.

    I have booked the surgery but still a little hesitant.

    I want to hear stories of people that have done the surgery and what they think about the results afterwards.

    I strongly suggest that you search the internet under FUE(follicular unit extraction) and the wood's technique before deciding which harvesting method, FUE or Strip Extraction Surgery, is better for you. FUE is a newer and less invasive but somewhat more costly harvesting method that does not involve cutting with scalpels, staples, stitches and only a topical anesthetic is used. Also, the number of strip extractions can be limited by scalp tightness. FUE allows a more even density between the grafted and harvested areas because the harvested area is evenly thinned. Current research is along two lines: 1) propagating hair in the lab identical to the hair on the back and sides that can be transplanted and 2) injecting stem cells from the hair on the back and sides to rejuvenate the hairs on top that have thinned to fine thin vellus hairs so that they once again produce robust terminal hairs.
    Good Luck!

    I would advise you to use the new technique FUE. I had my brother's surgery done at India where the Dr uses a variation of the FUE called the FLUTE technique in which he uses the FUE and FUT technique to their fullest potential. Dr Tejinder Bhatti's technique is pathbreaking in difficult cases where there is a tight scalp. I don't know what is your problem, but FUE should be your first choice followed by FLUTE and last if these are not for you, then you will have to go in for the strip method. FUE grows hair better and faster.
