I had anxiety about the strip being taken out before the procedure, but I can confirm that it does not hurt whatsoever. Dr. B is highly skilled with the scalpel and uses a perfect amount of local anesthetic so there is no discomfort at all when the strip is being taken out. Dr B said it was 70 square cm taken out. Once the strip is taken out Dr Bolton creates the recipient sites which are slits that I didn't feel being made either. While Dr B makes the sites, the staff of three male technicians (who were very professional and who have each been working at GHT for years) dissect the strip under microscopes. Once that is complete, you get a quick bathroom break if needed and can eat some of the snacks and drinks they have set up for you next to the surgical chair if you want. GHT is very private and they only book one client per day and their all male staff (including front desk) focus on you totally. There are no females there to worry about giggling or giving you anxiety while you are in a vulnerable situation. This was a big relief, because most other hair transplant docs book many patients per day and have mostly all female technicians working for them. The technicians surrounded me one on front left, one on front right, and one in the back and they placed the grafts all throughout my head with no pain. When the procedure was completed after about 4-5 hours. Dr Bolton provided all the post op instructions and medication. I was given Keflex antibiotic to protect against any possible infection, anti-inflammatory methylprednisolone pills, Hydrocodone for pain as needed and Tylenol as well. I was also given GraftCyte spray and the instructions to follow for the first 5 days after the procedure. I sat up the whole night of the procedure and was cautious never to touch the recipient area. I took the hydrocodone only the first two days but didn't really need to. Then just Tylenol for the next 3 days. On day 3 I had swelling in my forehead area, on day 4 the swelling traveled down to my eye area, and on day 5 it went to my cheeks. By day 7 all the swelling was all gone, and I had new hairs firmly planted in my head with much of the recipient site scabbing flaking off. I was liking what I was seeing, but those new hairs started shed off around day 13 just as they are supposed to and then they grew back in around 3 months and filled in over the course of the year. I had the stitches removed around 12 days after the procedure and that was a huge relief to have taken out and that was completely painless also. Now my suture line healed invisibly. I cut my sides with a #7 guard and you see no scar at all. I also feel no scar and have all the feeling in my scalp. The end results were nothing short of amazing. Exaclty as I had hoped for and needed! Now I have a complete and full head of hair with a hairline that I can style and comb various ways. It looks completely natural and nobody has ever asked if it was a transplant in the 2 years since the procedure. The whole experience was professional and Dr Bolton and his staff were great. The operating room and the whole office is extremely clean and you can tell it is not some high volume get you in get you out kind of place. I was completely comfortable the whole time. I reccomend contacting them and asking for my patient coordinator named Michael with questions or to set up a procedure. He helped me through the entire process and it's been 2 years and he still follows up for updates. Dr. B is obviously passionate about getting great results for his patients. Highest possible recomendation! Look no further! Read More →
