It has been two weeks since my hairline transplant.
Because my forehead is wide, I considered forehead reduction surgery, but since my mid-face is also on the longer side, I 고민 a lot and eventually chose to fill in my hairline instead.
This was my first time seriously visiting so many clinics.
I have a visible M-shape and also wanted to fill in the sides, so the estimated graft count was fairly high.
On average, I was quoted around 3,200 grafts,
but at Mo&Line Hairline Clinic, the estimate was 3,050 grafts.
I visited about five to six clinics, and I think I really clicked with Mo&Line because the consultant explained everything so clearly and helped me fully understand the surgery.
At some clinics, even though they offered consultations, I could strongly feel that it was just a way to kill time before the doctor went back into the operating room.
Post-operative care was also better than at other clinics,
and what really impressed me was how meticulous the director was.
Before surgery, the director personally took my before photos.
I had never seen a director holding a camera during any other surgery, and at that moment, I felt once again that I had chosen the right clinic.
Even after surgery, when checking my progress, the director explained precautions by drawing on a whiteboard, which I found really impressive.
I was honestly surprised by how kind and attentive they were.
I was very afraid of pain, so I originally preferred a non-incision method,
but since the number of grafts was high and that would significantly increase the surgery time, I decided to go with a combined incision and non-incision approach.
I thought lying awake for too long would be boring, so I chose potential pain instead.
The incision site pain was more manageable than I expected,
but since the area was cut and sutured, the top of my head and scalp hurt.
For about a week, it felt like someone was constantly pulling my hair, which was quite annoying.
After a week, it got much better, probably because the skin had stretched and adjusted.
I really hope the little “grass” hairs grow quickly and become nice and fullㅜ
