I think it's important to note that Dr. Bernstein does not do more than 25 grafts per centimeter because he is VERY conservative, a little too conservative in my opinion. Many doctors have debated this issue and I have to agree that it's best too dense pack. When you get 50+ grafts per centimeter you are following the 50-50 rule (a person will lose half of his hair before he notices he is thining). Of course you are right: hair color and other factors do count. Me: i'm blone and light skinned. At 50 hairs per centimeter, i'll have the appearance of a very full head of hair, even at 40 hairs per centimeter i would. Just one of the luck ones i guess.

You need to have 50 grafts per centimeter (100 hairs per centimeter)to give the appearance of a "full" look. Just ask your doc for that amont and you will be fine and can estimate the number of grafts you need. It's simple and follows the 50 50 rule.

If that's the case and it's not refined yet: why is Dr. Woods offering this as his sole practice? Dr. Jones even stated in an interview that he will soon be only offering the FUE and lets not forget Dr. Gu (spelling?) There are many patients out there with amazing results using the FUE - it's here and it works. The only thing that needs to be refined is the price and time it takes. Nothing more.

Please accept my apology is anyone thinks that my points were directed at them - besides many doctors. What I am getting at and upset about is that so FEW doctors are adopting FUE as the norm. Sure, it's new, but as many of the real "top" doctors have proven, it works and is less harm to the patient. I realize I can't educate many of you vets of HT's - but I ask that you get on the boat and make doctors provide the FUE 100%. This will not only lower the cost but also save time to refine this proceudre. Simply put - so many doctors are way behind in the times with the strip and don't offer this "safer" HT to their patients. I ask Pat to even start asking doctors to offer the FUE. And please don't tell me that these doctors are looking at all the information first - than making a decision. Please, we all know the FUE and many doctors have put their practice on it: Dr. Jones and others. Here is a question: You're a top Doc on this form and decide to have a HT. The doctor you decide to perform the procedure is Dr. Berstein. Now, Dr. Bernstein offers to option: the strip and the FUE. What procedure would you take? It's a NO BRAINER. Dr's need to offer the FUE now and fast - they owe it to patients. That is if they are commited to offering the very best in HT's, as this site claims.

Quote: "There is MUCH MORE scar tissue formed in total volume with FUE than with strip excision." Oh really? Where did you get that from - or did you forget to notice the 6 inches of scalp the doctor throws out afetr the strip method. After the FUE - you CAN shave your head. Quote: "At this time, only a handful of elite surgeons are attempting this procedure." There is no reason why all doctors should not be learning this technique. It's simple guys. When "Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation" was introduced, people were saying the same things, now it the norm. We know FUE works and works great....we just need to make it the norm. So many guys on the board will use the strip method because their doctors can't offer the FUE. That's not right. The technology is here. They need to learn it and follow the lead of Dr. Jones. It can't can any more simple. "Your only a top Doctor when you offer the MOST advanced technique available" - THE REAL TOP DOCTORS TO DATE ON PATS LIST: 3 - PRO FUE!

I agree with you and will be soon be getting the FUE done. I guess my point is: what the heck is so fishy? The Fue is the next stage in HT's - period. I challenge even a Doc on that point. And you're right, as of now - I can't convey "experience" - but I can covey "research". The FUE is here, we just need to get doctors to learn it, making it the standard in HT's. ......Period "Your only a top Doctor when you offer the MOST advanced technique available" - THE REAL TOP DOCTORS TO DATE ON PATS LIST: 3 - PRO FUE!

"27young: What makes you an expert? What doctor do you work for? What's with posting "pro FUE" and "best price on propecia"? I agree with NW: If you want an FUE, get one already." In responce to your questions: i'm not an expert, and I work for no doctors. I'm pro FUE because I want to educate guys like you, who seem to have not seen what STIP does to the back of your head, that there is a NEW AND BETTER version of a HT here - now, we just need to get the top docs on this board to learn it. I need to say this again: the strip method does work...but there is no need for a scar. But let me guess, you or some others don't care about the scar because you will never shave your head. Well tell you what-I hope that you will never have "stretch back". Yes, this can happen and you could end up with messy scar or GOD FORBID you will ever get Cancer. With the strip, there are too many risks....Up untill now, it was a chance you HAD to take: why do you think you have to sign your life away prior to a HT....the risks are there and people don't seem to recognize them. Yes, FUE is new - and that's why people are unsure about it. But you need to know that there are a few doctors in the world who want to limit the risk for the patient, learning thIS new technique. Yes: there is NO REASON why the rest of these "top" docs can't take the time to learn the FUE and save, even if it's just one patient, from a scar. Man - Doctor Jones has stated that he will soon only offer the FUE and is somewhat anti strip, why? because he knows the risks to his patients and he want to limit them as much possible. There is no need to mention Dr. Woods, he has stated for years he was against it. Did you know that most, if not every HT DOC on this forum, have a patient that is very unhappy with his scar? Yes, it's not because they were out to scar the patient, but because "mother nature" decided to make him or her the small percentage who will end up with the bad scar. But then you might say, well they can fix it with a scar revision....lol...i heard that before....why pay more fixing something that you could have 100% prevented in the fist thing? We all know, or most of us do, that the FUE is the next and final step in HT's, the next being HM. Just like the doll hairs of old, the strip will soon be out the window. In conclusion: i'm pro FUE because IT'S THE BEST PROCEDURE OUT THERE, PERIOD..try and argue that. Second: the propecia is to save young guys money who think, quote: "I don't want to go on Propecia because it's too expensive". Well now they can. I was also a student and know how tight money is. But you know what: why would u even ask that question? Kinda silly don't you think. This is a message forum the promises the BEST procedure in HT's - that procedure is now the FUE. That's a fact. There is nothing more to talk about here. Do some research and come back to me: you will also be pro FUE.

Come on guys: the better procedure is here and it works.....period......if you get the strip method - it's because you did not educate yourself. Strip is bad (but does work in the right hands) - this does not mead do it....I CAN't SAY THIS ENOUGH...FUE IS HERE, IT'S THE BEST PROCEDURE OUT THERE; DOCS NEED TO LEARN IT AND IF YOU WANT A HT - YOU NEED TO AVOAID THE STRIP....MAN----is not that hard people.. sorry if that sounded rude, no disrespect--i just get bothered when people promote something that is not as good as the FUE -- the strip...

My count so far of the "top" doctors who offer the most advanced technique in HT's to date (the FUE): 3

Hey everyone: I just watched a good video on the strip method by a top doc on this form. I have to say that I am 100% against it! How can anyone even remotly say that they are against or compare the new FUE to the strip? No wonder there is shock loss associated with the strip method: have you seen the amount of scalp they remove. With that much trama to the head, what do u expect when people say they had shock. I'm tired of some doctors saying that they think there will be a two tear approach one day, first get as many grafts with the strip and than use the FUE to fill in as they become more bald. I heard the same things about 10 years ago vs mini and FU. Come on docs. Get with the times: the FUE approach is here, learn it! Yes, it takes more time to get the work done: but come on, if a patient has been bald for 10 years and docs offer the FUE at the same cost (yes this is possible once they perfect it) do you really think they would not mind going for three SCARLESS procedures instead on one, waiting maybe 6 more months to see results? Dr. Jones, Woods and GUE (SPELLING?) are the only two TOP docs in the world: why? because they offer this new and BETTER approach. No one can argue against it, simple. But I have to say that they need to lower their costs. So to anyone concidering a HT: The most advanced approach is the FUE.....in the next 5 years, it will HM......period. Im walking into my HT doctor tomorrow and asking if he has learned the FUE approach. If not - he is not the man for me. How could he be? Not being able to offer the MOST advanced approach available today? Yes, strip doctors are not affering the most advanced approach! The strip method works- in the hands of a top doc-but the FUE is better.(and yes, the mini graft aproach works also, if the hands of a good doctor- but it does not make it right!) Why would you not concider that: oh wait, I know why: doctors, ever the top ones are not offering the FUE and the cost. Did you hear that docs? Get with the times and help some people improve their lives with as LITTLE risk as possible.
