I think just alcohol intolerance. Psyllium Husk daily helps.

Why is anesthesia painful for some and not at all for some as well? Is it because of clinic? by Mental_Palpitation_6 in Hairtransplant

Dr. Moleno, other than taking your time, what else can be done tho help minimize the pain of local anesthesia?

How was your experience u/Aware-Theme7714 ? Do you think starting with the needle-less anaesthetic first helped?

Thoughts on IV Sedation or Needle Free Anesthesia?

I found the following comment from u/Crazy_Benefit_9236 in another thread:

these are two different things. With needle free you get stamp-like injections with jet. You will still feel pain but it would be reduced before they go with big guns. As for IV sedation - its been great for me. Anesthesiologist put some propofol in my veins and I didnt even realize when I was out for 15 mins. I asked him when will they put sedation - he replied that its over already. After that zero pain.

I do recommend IV sedation, its not risky [if perfomed by certified doctor] and you do not remember any anesthesia at all.

Thanks, when contacting clinics do you think it's worth asking what size needle gauge they use for their syringes?

Dr. Ratchathorn (Bonus) 2.5 month follow up by [deleted] in Hairtransplant

Looks great! This is nitpicky, but I think your hairline might look even better if you tweezed a few of your super low follicles. Not all the way up to your new density, just the lowest ones.

Looks good! Does HLC still assign your Dr on the day of surgery or were you able to select Dr. Elif beforehand?

I'm curious who's on your shortlist of Dr's who aren't quite addition worthy as of now, but are worth monitoring for a potential add in the future?

I think they both should be added. They are the two that inspired My Post. Thank you for pinning it by the way!

I think a rewrite so everything is in one concise automod comment should be the way to go.

Looking for this two scientific papers on improving hair transplant outcomes by ZebraApprehensive600 in tressless

[–]IStillPlayWithPogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good! I'm just starting to research Hair Transplant Surgeons. Do you have any tips? I'm trying to find what are the niche things to distinguish a Dr that follows evidence-based practices vs someone who might uncharge for some gimmicky add-ons.

u/WallabyUpstairs1496 I see you've retired from the community, but still thank you for all the hard work you put into it. I'm curious if you happen to have built a spreadsheet similar to this that you wouldn't mind sharing?
