“Two years ago, my frontal baldness screamed ‘mid-life’ in every Zoom call. Today colleagues are asking what shampoo I use.”
— Indrajit Bhattacharjya, 37 (IT professional, USA/Kolkata)
In this remarkable hair restoration journey, Kolkata-born IT professional Indrajit Bhattacharjya regained his hairline and confidence, thanks to a 3,000-graft Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure led by Dr Choudhury, Hair Transplant Surgeon at Dr Paul’s Advanced Hair & Skin Solutions. Below, we chronicle Indrajit’s case – from initial consultation to full recovery – highlighting how Dr Choudhury’s expertise made all the difference.
- Meet the Patient
- Name: Mr. Indrajit Bhattacharjya
- Age at surgery: 37
- Occupation: Software architect in the USA, originally from Kolkata
- Primary concern: Advancing hairline + thinning crown damaging self-image and career presence
- The Diagnosis
Dr Choudhury performed a thorough digital trichoscopy and scalp mapping, confirming Androgenetic Alopecia at Norwood Grade III. Fortunately, Indrajit’s occipital donor zone showed robust follicles — ideal for Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) as the transplant method.
- Crafting the Surgical Plan
After discussing Indrajit’s lifestyle, goals and travel schedule, Dr Choudhury recommended a single-session FUE transplant with 3,000 grafts, which Indrajit eagerly agreed to. The procedure was scheduled for 2 November 2021, aligning with his availability.
Why FUE? Dr Choudhury explained that FUE was chosen for several key advantages:
- Micro-punch harvesting leaves dot scars that vanish in a #1 buzz cut.
- Faster healing vs. FUT strip surgery.
- Allows “cherry picking” of multi-hair follicular units for maximum density.
- Surgery Day Highlights
Dr Choudhury led the procedure with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every step went smoothly. Here are the key highlights from the surgery day:

- Post-Op Protocol
After the surgery, Dr Choudhury provided Indrajit with a detailed post-operative care plan to ensure optimal healing and graft survival:
- Saline spray every 2 h (Day 0–3) to keep crusts soft.
- Hair Fact nutritional kit + Minoxidil 5 % foam nightly.
- No gym for 10 days; back to laptop work in 48 h.
- Low-level laser therapy sessions at Weeks 2, 4 and 6.
- Month-by-Month Progress
Dr Choudhury scheduled regular follow-up appointments to track Indrajit’s progress at key milestones. Below is a month-by-month overview of hair growth and Indrajit’s personal observations during recovery:

- Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many grafts will I need?
A: Your complimentary digital hair analysis pinpoints your baldness grade, donor capacity, and future-loss risk to determine a tailored graft count.
Q: Does FUE hurt?
A: Our lead surgeon Dr Choudhury uses the Dentapen device for local anaesthesia, so most clients feel no more than a mild vibration during the procedure.
Q: When can I travel back to work?
A: For desk jobs, you can resume work in about 2 days. You can even fly out as soon as Day 3 post-op (just carry a neck pillow for comfort).
Q: Will my transplanted hair ever fall out?
A: Transplanted donor hairs are genetically resistant to DHT, so they’re generally permanent. Only normal seasonal shedding might occur over time.
