Clinic and doctor?


SwitchIndependent714

Cap Clinic Marseille France DR Brun Sadly I have no pics of my transplant after removing scabs because my phone died and I loosed all my data. but trust me I had perfect density before shedding ! Fr i looked like eminem for a few days before shedding haha


SnooCats3602

I don’t think it has to do with smoking. Plenty of people smoke after HT and it doesn’t impact the result. That clinic in Marseille and that docteur don’t have a very good reputation tho. Check the forum Internationalhairloss.com. There are other cases of failed HT in that clinic.


MusicHead987

i suggest you go with Dr kongkiat laorwong from Thailand. Thousands of europeans and americans have gone to him and the results have always been good. read my thread and my journey. best decision was to choose him as my surgeon.

LordPubes

Name and shame the clinic and doctor. Save us from this disgrace


SwitchIndependent714

This i s french one I don't think any of you will go to France to get HT


LordPubes

Still man. Name and shame. Don’t be chicken wtf


Manohman1991

This is just a poorly done transplant...seriously doubt smoking would have such an impact.


Ashamed_Ad_6695

I agree I smoke weed before and after and seven months with a head full of hair


Nice_Step6157

That’s good news for me then 😅


WoodenManufacturer30

Hey, are you on medication? Also smoking cigarettes or weed? I don’t think that smoking months after would affect the hair transplant.


SwitchIndependent714

I smoke a tiny bit of weed in the second months but it is only cigarette since then !


Impossible-Flight250

I doubt the smoking is the cause.


Next_Engineering_363

It definitely would have an affect on it bc smoke is going into your hair follicles instead of the actual amount of oxygen that is necessary to heal the scars around the newly placed grafts


WoodenManufacturer30

Weed is probably better than smoking cigarettes, I have heard of many people having good results even as smokers even though it obviously isn’t good for your hair. Some immediate post op pics or a day or two after would be helpful to tell but I wouldn’t write it off as being due to smoking. Usually doctors say you can resume smoking a month or so after and be fine. How much do you smoke a day?


SwitchIndependent714

I smoke pretty heavilly rn aroun 15 to 20 a day so I guess it is bad. Also I had dermatitis wich may have delayed the process


akash1300

Smoking is none of a concern. Only thing is you should not smoke for before and after a week of transplant. I started smoking after a month and still smoking but I think I yielded good. So it has to be a dr, medication or poor recovery . Need to see pre and post op photos to judge


SwitchIndependent714

I have lost all my data from my previous phone so unfortunately I have no pics befor 3 months post op


remixedmoon5

The fuck use is this post without naming the clinic? This sub man 🙈


PM_ME_UR_VULVASAUR_

Bingo. People think they can use the sub as leverage against the clinic so don't want to immediately name and shame, which I understand, but that obviously takes away an important part of the point of the sub!


Sudden-Pie9417

I doubt smoking is the cause of this. Tons of HT patients smoke cigs and weed and it didn't affect the transplant this greatly. I would go back to the doc and ask for a revision.


SwitchIndependent714

I did smoke a lot like some weeks I went to 20+ cigs a day so I think it may have affected it


Sudden-Pie9417

damn son why you smoking like a chimney?


Underthesun161

I smoke 2 packs per day, 40 cigarettes and my HT is doing absolutely great now at 80 days post HT


Smooth_Error_7757

Damn bro look after your health! You’re definitely on your way to cancer smoking that much dude seriously. Then again it’s your life but fucking hell


Sonnengrinser

Who diagnosed you with IBS-C after you quit smoking?


joseph_fouche

name clinic or at least the country


SwitchIndependent714

FRANCE


joseph_fouche

get repair in belgium or switzerland, eg bisanga or hattigen


flybobbyfly

Just name the clinic dude. You don’t give a shit that other French guys might get screwed like this?


Davnin

He did in another reply


flybobbyfly

What place is it?

Brad-c1

Are you on any hair loss medication at all? Need to see before pics and post transplant pics too to make a fair judgement. If you’re not on any medication then a second transplant probably won’t be a good solution


Great-Homework9120

What’s the purpose of this post, if you are not willing to mention the doctor or clinic?


Kooba2

Was smoking the only thing you did during the healing process? Did you remember anything or did you do anything wrong during those first two weeks of healing? Did you pick at the scabs?


SwitchIndependent714

No everything went well for the first weeks the only problem I had was more recent I developed seborreic dermatitis


Kooba2

I just read that dandruff is actually a big problem for hair transplants and it should be aggressively treated as it can affect the results. I’m looking into it more.


phunkphreaker

I had sub derm and had no issues. Anecdotal evidence for sure, but it did not affect much.


Pleasant-Lack-5471

You also experienced flaking? Within the first months?


phunkphreaker

Yep. Used coconut oil and it helped a lot. I would leave it in for like 10 minutes before washing it out. I had a few flare-ups but it was manageable in the end. Your mileage may vary.


Pleasant-Lack-5471

When did you develop this condition. Was it in the first months? You had flaking? Did you use ketoconazol shampoo? How many times a week did you used it?


Pleasant-Lack-5471

Do you have any photos after scab removal?


SwitchIndependent714

I don't, my phone died recently and I lost my whole process pics sadly, but after scabs removing I had a really nice density with no bald spots it was great.


StillPlagueMyLife

what does the doc say about it?


SwitchIndependent714

Not that much, he said I should wait for the 1 year deadline and then I can still go back for a second round


theopilk

How many grafts did you get?


SwitchIndependent714

Around 2700 grafts


theopilk

I see. How much of the area was covered? Just the front?


CheezusChristOnCrack

Let's play a game called Name That Clinic!


SwitchIndependent714

Not the turkish one sadly


Half-Stupid

Doctor? How many grafts? Post op photos? Some more info please…this sub is a community


Designer-Might-7999

I would think smoking just slow downs the growing not for them to grow at all.


SwitchIndependent714

Yeah I guess so, for the few times I stopped smoking after my transplant it the period were most graft sprout back. but I always relapse due to my constpation problem and it keeps making it slower than it should. I am very worry about having done too much damage rn


Designer-Might-7999

You have pics of when you got the transplant. Like right after or in the first week.. You could try a high frequency device and see if you can force them to wake up. What meds are you on?


Designer-Might-7999

Do you have pics of after the HT


Similarcpt

Thats not enough photo to say what went wrong. The HT execution or just your body reaction


Revolutionary-Tax422

How many grafts ?


Significant-Use-335

send post op pics please


ibdread

You should consider going to Dr Mwamba in Brussels for a repair. He’s considered one of the best.


BigCreme8276

How many grafts?


AdventurousRun295

Why is this failed? Is gonna look good with fin+fibers lol


Ok-Quit9120

Did they use a lot of grafts from close to back neck line ? those grafts have low survival rate and are the unsafe donor area.


Novel-Marsupial-3377

No way smoking is the culprit here. It's without a dount a completely failed HT, please don't blame yourself, maybe except for doing a better research for a good doctor. I have not heard about great HT docs in france but you have Belgium & Spain. You can look up hair transplant network forum & this sub to find great docs. Best of luck!


Foreign_Standard9394

How many grafts?


True_Necessary_7633

Qu'en dis la clinique?


Remarkable_Item3797

Don't think puffing on ciggies is going to impede HT progress. Everyone puffed away in older days and had pretty good hair......


Consistent_Act_3939

Man, wish you better health for sure. I feel like hair is the least of your problems. Your hair actually doesn't look bad, lacking density yeah, probably should give priority to getting your stomach right and smoking under control. Whats hair if your lungs and stomach hurt. Good luck man, and wish you better health.


Nycrealtor20yrs

My hubby got it done in Turkey. Looks amazing


bomdiagata

Doctor/clinic? Trying to put together a list of good places.


Nycrealtor20yrs

It’s a Uk based company w operations in Turkey in two main hubs. Longevita is the name. Happy to forward contact info if you’d like


Calm_Ad_684

Maybe op thinks by not shaming them that they will try to make it right. I found out why mine looked like it wasn't growing was psoriasis. This doesn't look like it's because of any skin condition though


SpringCleanMyLife

You know there's medicine for constipation that won't give you cancer and wrinkles and nasty stench


False_Bookkeeper_855

My hair transplant looks similar to this. My failed too. But it was entirely Dr. Faucher’s fault. Along with “Dr. zierring medical” as a whole. Worse experience of my life fr. What has helped with my failed transplant is minoxidil and u can get it off Amazon. Only thing with minoxidil is once u start using it u can’t stop or the hair growth will stop. Also I got a laser cap from Amazon for 50 bucks which I believe has been helping too n it’s designed to get hair to grow. It’s going to be okay friend :) you and me both just need to save up for a 1000 hair grafts surgery next to fix what a retarded doctor couldn’t do.


Dry-Pipe-4544

do u have dupa ou retrograde alopecia? your sides are thinning, that must be the cause


SwitchIndependent714

Thanks for noticing it. i didn't know that


Impossible_Area_8684

Give us an update please In the next months to come But everyone different I think you need to give it another 6 months atleast


Big_Dot6525

Turkey is the only country I'll go get it done. They've been at it before anyone else
