Motion Clinic FUE Hair Transplant Review

Not a storyteller, but sometimes an experience may be worth to share. I remember how overwhelming it was to research hair transplantation procedures info and how many questions were with totally different answers. First, I’m not so young and half (if not 3/4) already ‘silver’ (BTW that’s a reason I won’t a beard, it looks like a ‘world map’ when growth :))) Second, the big part of my hairstyle already said ‘goodbye’ and I’m personally don’t like the head shaving that distributed like virus last years. So… decided (try) to fix this disaster and started to look over the transplantation matter. I’m healthcare pro, so my sight angle is a little bit other than most of patients. Step one – websites from all over the world with clinic pics. 50% excluded just by photo of the surgery room or clinic. Another part excluded by local standards and regulations. After some iterations remains S.Korea and Japan on the table. And, finally, Korea, where highest standards balanced with reasonable price, became the winner (for me for this procedure). Top-5 clinics were contacted and only Motion easily wins with clear, superfast and superdetailed communication. During 3 days all gaps were closed and date scheduled. Another clinic was ‘busy’, third was ‘come back shortly, and forth offer ‘only FUT in your situation’, that was not in my choice. Next days, I’ve got all of my (stupid, sure) questions answered and provided with a lot of info include maps and bus numbers from the Director of clinic Mr. Kim (Kim, are you sleeping at all? We have 7 hours time difference between our countries :)) ).So… the final of the story – I got 3000 grafts transplanted five days ago. The whole plan has been recommended to do by two procedures, I just realized my underestimation of real status. Was a bit nervous (big boys shall not use the word ‘panic’ but actually yes, because I’m healthy in general and was not pampered a lot with a doctors; yes-yes the ‘white coat’ guys are also sometimes have ‘white coat syndrome’ :)) ) before, and as it happens follow on, it was with no reason; all in Motion is organized ‘like Swiss watch’ whole team is extremely professional and attentive. I’m sure, I did the best decision from any possible, to do surgery in the Motion. Finally, I was welcomed in the ‘day zero’ morning at the entrance and next process was amazingly well-planned and smooth, you just moved from one pair of hands to another for each next step. At the end of day, you’ll be a bit woozy but see your new (future) hair profile in the mirror. Even like me, without glasses can’t see a whole ‘bloody picture’ (joke, I’m regular to see that), but me looks as planned and marked by designer on the start, and ‘if everything planted will sprout’, for me it will be brilliant result. No pain during the procedure, except very minor thing while anesthesia injected, but no issue. And… it was a first day from the last 30 years when I can lay down and do absolutely nothing! Somebody else take care. ^_^ . Day finished in the hotel with question for the million: What’s up? What I did?And that’s a place for tip one for those who on the way: take the 'travel pillow' with you (yes, this one for the flights), you’ll need it at night for some days. The bigger the better, try touch the hotel’s bed pillow by head as less as possible, it may be not so painful, but extremely uncomfortable. Tip two: take with you a couple of old pillow covers. Use them first nights over hotel’s, the blood and liquids are not looks good on the hotel’s sheets.The next day, bandage was removed, and I made a first mistake. Used wrong hat type. Kim said I need to prepare the oversized hat. That’s wrong. It should be ‘over-over-oversized’. :))) Fortunately, next has been provided with correct one by clinic.More or less, I know what should be supposed after such level surgery, so first days it was no surprises in health status, some itching, some tightness, less pain, nothing serious that can disturb to travel over the Seoul.Today is day five, the picture of ‘bomb explosion over the head’ in the mirror slowly changed to the normal view, hat is changed to my one (Kim, you didn’t saw these words!), no pain or itching, just a little dryness. Partial loosing of sensitivity in implanted area, but it is ok, will pass itself with the time. And two tips of the day five:- do not touch the head!!- mind the car entrance!! (I’m travel with car and dozen of times already found my head in a millimeter from the door’s arc)I did some macro-photos of post-op area, to see the healing progress, overall looks not bad, changing looks like micro-wound closing, just the number of wounds is 6000 :))) Still in doubt to put pics there, they are pretty similar to the others.Update in some days. ))
