It is addictive! I'm looking forward to the results as well. I'll post updates as I notice the new fellas coming forth! -
I joined this forum in 2011. I realized I wanted to do something with my hair and almost considered Bosley. Thank goodness for this site and the research I did! Anyway, I posted my story and pics just to get some thoughts from some of the members here. Several folks had told me to 'lose weight' (which is kind of ironic, because I'm 6 ft 2 and 200 lb.... not THAT big!), get a tan, etc. That really didn't bother me as much. I was upset that most seemed to say I wasn't a candidate from the looks of my photos, how it wouldn't be worth it, etc. Regardless, I went to surgeon (True and Dorin, to be specific) and he told me that I certainly was a candidate. So in Nov 2011, I had my first procedure. I was EXTREMELY pleased with the results. I had my second on Nov 25th of this year. I had 2480 grafts for my first procedure and 2057 for the second. You can view my photos and story on my profile if you want to check it out. Anyway, the point of this thread, is don't let others get you down whether it's online or face to face. If you are that concerned about your hair, see a doctor and get their inputs. I've seen some absolutely amazing results from guys that I would have thought had no hope of restoration, but I was wrong! If for some reason, you are not a candidate, don't let that get you down either. I had told myself if I wasn't going to be a candidate, that would be that, and I would just shave my head. Losing your hair doesn't mean you have to lose who you are. Remember that! Merry early Christmas to all and be safe this season. Jason

Thanks David! I appreciate the kind words. I can't wait to see what the second procedure yields. -
On November 25th 2014, the day before Thanksgiving, I took my second plunge, and had my second hair transplant with Dr. True and Dr. Dorin (Dr. Dorin, to be specific) in New York City! As with the first procedure, I was extremely pleased by the professionalism and the work Dr. Dorin and his staff perform. I have nothing but kudos to give to these folks. Here's the breakdown of the second HT. 2057 Grafts (FUT) 479 singles 1451 doubles 127 triples I've attached just one picture directly from the True and Dorin site. You can tell with just under 2500 grafts, the results were quite impressive. (The before picture is from Nov 25, 2011. The second photo is approximately 13 months later) I decided to go with a second procedure just because I was extremely pleased with the first and I wanted to achieve more density. I do have a lot of photo albums from my immediately before my first procedure back in November 2011, up to now, my second procedure. Please do check out my profile on this site and let me know your thoughts! Rest assured, as the second one starts to progress, I'll be updating this site! Also, here is a video testimonial on YouTube: If anyone is contemplating T&D, I would say go for it! Feel free to message me if you have any questions, comments, or concerns!

Just wanted to give a shout out to Dr. True and Dorin and his expert staff. I am immensely satisfied with my results! Also, a thank you to this site, as it is full of great information and of course, great people. I was able to do much research and comparisons and came to the conclusion that True and Dorin was the place for me to 'take the plunge'. If anyone has any comments or questions, fire away. Cheers!

Thanks for the comments! I have been on propecia and rogaine since Nov 2011. If you view my profile, I created several photo albums. They contain photos from pre-op, to immediate post op, and the most recent as of Jan 7 2013. The most recent one contains the scar, or should I say the lack there of. I am very happy with the results. Feel free to check out my albums under my profile.
