ThinkingaboutHT

I am posting this as when I was doing research for HT in Colorado, I saw very little info for Colorado. I had spent about 9 months researching on the web and visiting the local HT doc's in Colorado. Little frustrating to say the least. I visited the chains, HC, Bosley and every other place I could find. After a lot of background work I asked all of them for references from past clients, obviously the proof is in the results. I got the run around from the chains, which said, most people don't want to talk about it as it is personal, which I understand to some point. When I asked for this from Dr. James Harris's office, they gave me a long list of past patients. So I began calling them. Out of all of them, everyone had the highest compliments. I even had the opportunity to meet with about 6 of them in person. I was truly amazed at the results, some of them had the same issues (balding pattern) I had. So after bugging Dr Harris's staff with questions for several months, I decided he was the one. I scheduled the appt for surgery. Which I had yesterday (June 10, 2011). Obviously at this point I haven't seen the results, but can tell you he and his staff were phenomenal. I was treated extremely well from the moment I arrived. Everyone very professional and caring. He ended up doing 2389 grafts, so it was a long day. Which other than getting bored on my part, was comfortable. So the night after the surgery, the donor area was a little sore, but a lot less than I expected. Oddly enough Dr. Harris called me personally that evening to check in and make sure I was okay. That really impressed me. Made me feel like more than just a dollar sign to him. So now it the morning after, after I washed my hair, I managed to check the donor area in the mirror, you can't see anything, unless you pull the hair up. My hair is only about 3/4" long, so that's very nice that it's concealed so well. It's still a little sore, but not painful. The recipient area obviously is still red/pink from the work, but feels fine. One of the other things I liked about Dr. Harris was the fact that he worked with me to determine a hairline that would look natural and appropriate for a person my age. Which was really important to me. I will post pics as soon as I get the chance. And keep the group updated. In the meantime, I would highly recommend anyone in Colorado considering a HT to atleast consult with Dr. Harris. I know I noticed a world of difference between his group and the others I met. And truly believe I made the right choice. Hope this helps a little. Dan

Has anyone used him lately? Would be interested in hearing how things went and also the results attained. Dan

HI Guys,, I have been considering Dr. Harris. as well. Wondering if anyone else has had any experiences with him good or bad. Blondedude, any pictures now that it has been several months? Thanks Dan

Hi Denver Growth, Would you mind sharing who did the transplant and what you think. I am in Denver as well as trying to do research. Thanks Dave

Hi, I live in Denver and considering a HT. I have been to HairClub and Bosley. Met with a few clients of each, they said good things and their hair looks great. But they were aranged by the places to talk to me. Anyone have experience with either of these places or other places in the Denver area? Want to avoid nightmares. Thanks for any comments, Dave

Hi All, Looking at possible HT. I'm in Denver. I have been to Hairclub & Bosley locally, but having a hard time finding reviews and obviously want to avoid nightmares. Have met with a few people who have been to each, all gave good reviews on both and looked good, but still nervous. Thanks for any input, Dave
