Los Angeles, USA • FUE • 1800 Grafts • 16mo post-op
Great results, minor hiccups
Overall very pleased with my FUE at Dermatology & Hair Restoration Specialists. Dr. Ben Behnam and the team were fantastic. Got 1800 grafts and the results at 16 months are looking really good. The hairline design is natural and the density is building nicely. My only complaints are minor — the recovery instructions PDF was a bit generic. But honestly, these are small things compared to the outcome. At $14,100, it was a fraction of what I was quoted back home.Would I do it again? Absolutely. Would I recommend Dermatology & Hair Restoration Specialists? Yes, with the caveat that make sure to follow the aftercare instructions exactly.
Pros
- + Well-organized
- + Painless procedure
Dubai, UAE • Sapphire FUE • 3500 Grafts • 14mo post-op
Average experience overall
I'll be honest — ILHT Dubai was neither terrible nor amazing. The procedure itself (3500 grafts, Sapphire FUE) was professional. But I felt a bit rushed during consultation and the recovery instructions could have been clearer. 14 months in, growth is coming along but slowly. Some areas seem thinner than expected. It ran me about $7,000 all things considered.I'm still hopeful the final result will be good since I know full results take 12-18 months. Would rate higher if communication was better.
Pros
- + No visible scarring
- + Airport transfer included
Cons
- − Swelling lasted a week
- − Donor area soreness
- − Longer recovery than expected
