Soggy_Relationship18 had 2500 grafts in 2022 with Dr Mario Marzola at MediHair in Melbourne, paying just over 10k AUD. He found the shedding phase hard at about six weeks but said he would do it all again, and that his donor area looked as if nothing had been done. At about 4.5 months he said growth was still patchy but the transplant had been life changing, one of the very few good decisions he had made.
