  1. Sorry to hear that, I can't imagine how that would feel... Would you mind sharing some pics? Totaly fine if you don't want to but I would like to see what your hair looks like. Hope the propecia helps!
  2. I don't even know what to say...W O W! :eek: What type of hair does this patient have? Fine, medium or coarse? It's hard to tell in pictures.
  3. This is kinda worrying... I'm having surgery in January, when I consulted Dr.Rahal I didn't get the feeling that he didn't care at all. I hope this is a one off thing, everything else I read sounded like the complete opposite.
  4. I am always impressed by your work Dr. Simmons. I think you are easily one of the top docs in the business and am always weirded out when you don't get mentioned in the top doc discussions. I appreciate that alot of your results show patients with finer hair characteristics, always gives me hope when I see what you can do with those patients. Did this patient use Rogaine after surgery? Do you usualy recommend Rogaine as part of your post op instructions? Keep up the good work, I'm sure you're making these patients very happy!
  5. Thanks Sean, I was reading that Rogaine might cause facial wrinkles due to inhibition of the collagen pathway. It's probably not much of an issue but if you can keep an eye on your skin (forehead, around the eyes) quality for any changes it would really be appreciated. Don't want to worry you, It's probably people noticing wrinkles because they stare at themselves in the mirror. Still, worth looking out for these issues imo!
  6. Looks good, have you started minox yet? Please let me know of your experience with it, any side effects or annoyances relating to its use? A couple more months and you'll be looking awesome I'm sure, hang in there!
  7. Personaly I've decided on Dr.Rahal, I feel that the results he gives are the most consistent and I love his style. Like others have said, go with your gut! YOU have to live with this decision and you want to make sure you are comfortable with the surgeon performing the procedure. Good luck
  8. Congratulations! It really does look pretty amazing, very happy for you! Quick question: Did Dr.Rahal urge you to use Minoxidil post op? Did you end up using it? Are you still using it?
  9. This is something i'm also pondering. I'm having my transplant with Dr.Rahal in January and the post op guide reccomends the use of Rogaine for 12 months after the HT. I'm mostly worried about reported side effects such as bloating and aging of skin/wrinkles. I'll have to discuss this issue with Dr.Rahal in depth when I go in for surgery. I hate the thought of having to use it everyday for a year, I really try to stay away from medication unless absolutely necessary. Do all HT docs strongly urge their patients to use rogaine in the transplanted areas?
  10. Amazing! What type of hair do you have? Coarse or fine?
  11. Absolutely amazing, I really feel I made the right choice to go to Dr. Rahal for my surgery in January!
  12. I can't wait to see how it will look all grown out! You'll be at close to 5 months by the time my surgery date comes up so I hope your result looks promising by then. How was the pain surgery? How quickly did your donor area heal up?
  13. Wow! 3000 grafts in one day? That's pretty amazing, I thought Dr.Rahal never went past 2500 in a single day! Congrats man, it looks absolutely great!
  14. Honestly, that looks terrible haha! His eyebrows are at the level of his hairline, looks like some kind of weird helmet... :eek:
  15. I've always been impressed by your work Dr. Simmons! How do you achieve such density on a patient with fine hair and with such a low graft count? This result is amazing honestly, I have the exact same type of hair as this patient so this is really encouraging to see.
