In addition to being recognized as a leader in the hair transplant industry by his colleagues, Coalition member Dr. Robert Bernstein receives online accolades by his patients for doing excellent work.

Tonight (October 7th, 2008 at 4:00pm Eastern Standard Time (EST) on ABC), the Oprah Winfrey Show features Coalition member Dr. Bernstein discussing new and advanced hair restoration techniques in follicular unit hair transplantation.

Dr. Bernstein will present a video showing how he and his dedicated staff perform the follicular unit hair transplant procedure and present the actual patient live on the show for Oprah to see and guests to see.

Also, Dr. Bernstein will engage the Oprah Winfrey audience to answer their hair loss or hair transplant related questions, examine a member of the audience experiencing early hair loss, and conduct a live demonstration using the densitometer.

The densitometer is self-contained, portable device with a magnifying lens for viewing hairs closely. With this, Dr. Bernstein can determine hair density and look for signs of hair miniaturization which can be used to determine future hair loss and whether or not the patient is a good candidate for medical treatment or hair transplant surgery.

I encourage the members and guests of this community interested to tune in for this special hair restoration broadcast on the Oprah Winfrey Show on October 7th at 4:00PM EST on ABC.

Best wishes,

Bill

My girlfriend mentioned to me last night that Oprah would be discussing HTs. Kind of exciting. And I hope that it is not her standard 2-minute segment.

I will be watching it tonight as Oprah plays here in Chicago at both 9am and 11pm.

Thanks Bill for mentioning it on here.

Correction, the Oprah Winfrey show is on ABC, not NBC.

I made the correction in the above.

Eman,

I think the show will be quite good, and much longer than the usual 2 minute segment. I am going to try to watch it at 4pm, but if not, I'll be recording it to watch it later.

4pm EST is only a half hour away.

Best wishes,

Bill

I can just imagine dr. bernstein phone is ringing off the hook after this! It is not like he needs any more marketing.

My Hair Loss Blog - Hair Transplant with Dr. Cooley

Just saw the episode and thought it was pretty good. It was a good informational segment with Dr. Bernstein explaining the nuances of HTs, a video of a procedure and the guy 10-months after. I thought that he looked good.

I just wish they would of said to stay away from the large chains, because I know that a lot of guys who watched this will think that all clinics (i.e., the "mills") do similar work to that of Dr. Bernstein.

But overall, I thought it was pretty good.

I saw the Oprah segment, and it's really accurate. Dr. Bernstein certainly is as calm and collected while performing surgery as he appeared on TV. As many of you already know, I am a HUGE Dr. "B" fan (and patient) in that he is repairing a "pluggy" 1991-92 transplant, and doing a masterful job. That messy looking strip/plantation scene to follow, I'm gald I won't be seeing it from that angle on TV! In fact, I recently had to attend a last minute funeral and people noticed how improved my hair looked, I'm guessing that is a polite way to say way to go removing those unsightly plugs!

DID YOU POST ANY PHOTOS

I was actually hoping for a longer segment, but Dr. Bernstein was a champ, very cool and collected, and clearly presented ultra refined follicular unit hair transplantation accurately. It was an excellent opportunity for public exposure both for him and the entire hair transplant industry. Perhaps the mainstream will see that "hair plugs" are a thing of the past.

The presented patient had a very full and natural looking result. His scar was also hardly noticeable. Since my eyes are trained to know where to look, I could see a trace of the scar as the donor area was being combed. But his scar was pencil thin and just about as good as it gets.

Kudos to Dr. Bernstein for offering the public an understanding of the latest and greatest hair transplant techniques.

Best wishes,

Bill

Hi MikeyB: I didn't take any pictures, and although I am happy to meet/share with anyone, I don't have anything to post. Dr. B, however, did take pics of the before, and maybe each repair(?) I'll ask, he told me that he would help me put photos once I'm all done on the site. He's really really a good guy, and committed to his work, both on patient's heads and in his research. I cannot say enough good about that guy. (no, I'm not in the medical field and/or employed/supported by his practice or him in any manner). Originally, I was afraid to post pics, but now, frankly, I'm ok with it...see what a down market/economy can do to someone!! I'll investigate on Nov 19 when I have my FINAL hair repair session and get more info re: pics! cc

The episode sounded interesting. Does anyone know if there is a site where people not based in the US can see it online?
