Thanks Arron, Iv been following your case. Your looking good. well done

Thanks Guys, Rebelvegas your result looks great. Well done. IMO Dr. Feriduni is one of the best. Sean, Im on ? Proscar daily and using Rogaine twice daily for nearly 4 months. I honestly don’t know what way I would like to style my hair. It has been a while sine iv had a hairline. My GF is a hairdresser so I think it might be her decision. J I don’t mind going conservative just incase the crown needs work in the future. My Dad is a NW6 and his brothers are 5 – 6. My uncles on my Mam’s side are bald too, but I don’t know what level. Don’t really see them that much and when I do, they always have a hat on. Iv attached a photo of the area SMG would like to cover using 3000 grafts. Photo is before using meds.

I’m gona make a decision in November. Ill have a better idea then if the meds are working. I’m nearly four months on them and the early signs are good. I have attached before and after photos both with 3 weeks growth. Can you please let me know what u guys think? Also, I’ve added Dr Rahal to my List.

Thanks RC & Sean Panine, Feller and Shapiro all suggested 2500- 3000 grafts and Feriduni 3000-3500. I want to feel 100% confident that the doc I choose is going to provide me with the best possible results. I would only consider making a decision on Price and Location if they were the last things separating two docs. As someone once said: "You never remember the price of a good job and you never forget the price of a bad one".

Thanks Orlhair. I'm sure your final result will be excellent.

Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated. I'd be grateful if I can get feedback on the other Docs too. Dr Panine in particular. IMO he is very talented at creating hairlines and like Dr Shapiro can do amazing things with few Grafts. Orlhair, I’ve been following your case with great interest and was wondering how your scar is healing after the use of Acell wound strips in the closure? Hariri, how would your rate Dr Rahal’s conservative Hairlines? Thanks Again, Keith

This is a great Form and saved me from having surgery with a second rate clinic. Thanks I’ve been doing a lot of research over the last 6 months and plan on getting FUT early next year. Want to make sure meds are working before I jump in. Im 28, NW 4A and realise that there is a chance I may get worse in the Future, so im realistic and don’t think it’s a good idea to go for a lower hairline. I’ve ruled out a lot of top surgeons as I think they are very aggressive with this. I’d be very happy to go conservative. I have narrowed my search down to the Docs below and would be grateful if I could get opinions, Dr Ron Shapiro, Top surgeon and currently my top choice. Matt has helped me a lot Dr Panine, I’ve seen a lot of excellent work from him and I’m surprised that he is not talked about more on forms. Stuart has helped me a lot. Top Man Dr Feriduni, Close to home and a top surgeon. Dr Feller. Top surgeon. Spex has been great I think Ill be in great hands no matter who I choose.

Hi IrishHair, Send your photos to the surgeons you mentioned above and they will give you an idea of how many grafts you need. Below are links to online consultations with some of the top surgeons, http://www.shapiromedical.com/contact/request_a_consultation/ http://www.haircenter.com/bookappointment.html http://www.charlesmedicalgroup.com/index.html http://www.rahalhairtransplant.com/dvdconsultation/schedule-a-consultation/ http://www.truedorin.com/pages/contact http://www.hairdocs.info/seite_engl/contact-hair-clinic-dr-feriduni.htm https://www.hairtransplantsurgery.co.uk/Doctor-Jean-Devroye-surgeon-contact-transplant-hair-replacement.html

Hi Kid32, I know how you feel, but there is no need to be embarrassed. Your doctor will understand. You could get the prescription from your local Doctor and the medication from a chemist in another town. Proscar is very cheap. I recently purchased 4 months supply for 25 euro. The product I find difficult to get in Ireland is 5% Rogaine foam.

Hi Kid, Why dont you just get a prescription from your doctor for proscar? I'm from Ireland and thats what i do.

Thanks for your reply. I taught he might have changed his ways, now that he is the main surgeon at Ziering medical UK. The clinic has had a lot of good press recently because of a HT done on a celebrity. However, this was preformed by Dr Ziering and not DR Katona. I will take your advice and stay well clear of him. I live in Ireland and would prefer to get it done here, but there are only two Doctors to choose from. One of them has had noting but bad reviews and the other is living in La La land with his prices. It looks like I will have to travel to the US or Belgium. Thanks again, Keith

Hi, I’m considering getting the FUT transplant and want to get as much information as I can on different doctors. Has anyone had a recent experience with Dr Katona? I know he now works in the UK with Ziering medical, but I can’t find much information on his work! Thanks, Keith
