Started thinning when i was 18 and did nothing until the age of 21 and then after
tried every thing from home made remedies to homeopathic medicines but
with no avail so gave up on it until i turned 25 and people started
pointing out that i am thinning and so i decided i got do something
about my hair. So then followed whatever people said and ended up trying products which are sold by sales person, who claim themselves of being expert in ayurvedic therapies. One of my family friend suggest to go see a ayurvedic hair therapist in my
hometown and claimed that he had hear one or two good thing about him. he gave me some solution to apply and then every 3 days he would call me and would give me a machine message on my hairs, and when i protested he claimed that that's how your hair becomes strong and will grow more in numbers.. Somehow i did not liked the idea of going through that torment every other 3 days and so i stopped his therapy after a month and a half only to find out that he had done more damage than good to my hairs..Well just believe me almost all of them are crooks and you got to be really really luck to find one good therapist and even if you do, there is no guarantee that it will work for you even if they will tell you a million stories of their successful track records...Luckily, while searching hair loss remedies on the
internet, i accidentally stumbled on this great forum and i knew from
that moment that i have discovered something great... Since then i have been reading and learning a lot about hair transplant and learned how to separate an excellent surgeon form a good or bad surgeon because when it comes to your hair, you must choose the best.. I have been posting my questions and queries in this forum during these months and have received some knowledge from guys like falc.. So after spending a
good 9 months on this forum, researching and learning the good and the
bad of Hair transplant, i decided to take the plunge and got my HT done
from Dr Humayun Mohammed of Islamabad on the 15 May 2009. My journey was not entirely a smooth journey and many hurdles came in my way. When i first made up my mind that i am gonna select Dr. Humayun Mohammed, and brought this idea on the dinning table, my parents were little skeptical of my going to Pakistan and instead made me consult with a few surgeon here in my home town. So armed with the knowledge which i had acquired on this fantastic forum by this time, i went to these docs with the list of my questionnaires and did not find them up to the mark and standard. I explained the technicalities to my parents of why they are not good and made them convince about the idea of me going to Pakistan and after fighting for this idea for about 4 months, i got my visas from the Pakistan embassy. I would also like to mention that Dr. Humayun has extended a considerable help in assisting me to get my visas done and he and shahid took care of my lodging and pickups and everything that i could ask for in advance... So i am pretty grateful to both of them for supporting me...So it was not easy but i persisted and believed in what i believed and i am pretty confident that a couple of months down the line, i will see what i believed ...
