Let's be honest. All of us here probably suffer at least a little bit from OCD/BDD.

I fully agree, but I don't think "all of us" should then be disqualified from surgery as corvettester suggests.

An ethical doctor should screen patients for BDD and if they exhibit traits of it, the doctor should not grant them an HT.

We all exhibit traits of it so that's all of us!

A very similar thread was created by Spex many months ago, although he referred to the disorder as OCD (which is closely linked with BDD):

The reality is that some of the posters here are actually not good candidates for hair transplantation due to their BDD. An ethical doctor should screen patients for BDD and if they exhibit traits of it, the doctor should not grant them an HT.

Corvettester

Corvettester, if you're going make this kind of statement, you might as well man up and admit that you also suffer from this disorder, which is fairly obvious to all those who have followed your case. But I wish you well and good luck with HT #2.

(scroll down a little for cloning info)

The near-future cure is cloning. cloning = unlimited donor supply

Beyond that I imagine there will be breakthroughs in preventive treatment, along the lines of an improved-Propecia.

Reece are you on finasteride (propecia)? You could strongly benefit from it given where you are in your progression. Most of the top docs recommend it.

Reece, sorry you're not happy with your hair. The good news is that your hair loss is MINIMAL and 95% of users on this site would be quite envious of your head of hair. Before answering your questions I must STRONGLY suggest that you wait at least a year (or more) before having a HT, if you have one at all. Hair transplantation surgery is a lifelong emotional journey that you shouldn't take lightly. I don't think your hair loss is stealing your youth or cutting your life is short, I think your preoccupation with it is.

Your questions:

1. FUT, the real industry insiders will tell you that FUE has not yet been perfected and is unadvised except for specific situations.

2. ? I don't know.

3. WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trust me!

4. n/a

GOOD LUCK

Not only do you never see a bald president, you never see a:

short president

fat president

unmarried president

grossly ugly president

Let's remember, hair is only ONE of many attributes that correlates with physical attractiveness.

I can't PM him from my account. Does he have a general hrn email?

Troll: You are just like your name states a troll.

Ian/Corv, listen, I actually agree with most of the posters that you shouldn't have been banned simply for having a bias or disliking a certain clinic, and I also agree that you were at one point a great asset to this community. But recently your enthusiasm has turned into a maddening obsession. It may be true that Dr. Feller has some "patient-relations" issues to sort out but you can't keep turning every Feller-related thread into a circus as you have been. However I do believe you should be banned for a particular thread you started, which so shamelessly violated the ethics of this forum that you ought to take responsibility and just hand in your resignation. I'll just leave it at that.

Well I have some good news for all the Corvettester fans, he is alive and well and still posting with his alter-ego, Ian512017155. Yes folks that's him. Don't let his periodic intentional bad spelling and grammar fool you. Corvettester IS Ian512017155. 100%.

(And fyi, I don't mind at all that some people use 2 accounts. After someone has made a genuine account and revealed their identity, it is perfectly understandable that he or she might later want to voice an unpopular opinion and are afraid or embarrassed to do it from their real account. This happens regularly on web forums of all types. My reason for "outing" corvettester/Ian512017155 yesterday was because he had some very harsh words for people who use multiple accounts just as he does. corvettester, your hypocrisy did you in.)

Troll: you're sole purpose on here is to create problems and steer this conversation off the topic. I will make it clear that myself and corvettester are not the same person. The managing publisher of this site can investigate and confirm this as well.

No, my purpose is to call a spade a spade when necessary. And I'll say it once more then put it to bed: corvettester = Ian512017155 = RobertHair = eddiemunster. They are all the same guy.

Here's a thread that you started only to reply to yourself with each alias: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/160733-dr-rahal-dr-feller.html#post2264837

And sadly it appears that the creation of this thread was meant solely to damage Dr. Feller. You created a thread pretending to be a prospective patient, and then criticize Dr. Feller with your other 3 accounts. Very unsportsmanlike. In fact, possibly psychotic.

Hey! Why was my post removed? I believe that corvettester is the same user as "RobertHair," "eddiemunster" and "Ian512017155." It was corvettester who brought up the topic of alias's and I was bothered by his hypocrisy. My post was totally appropriate given the content of this thread. Arrgh...
