  1. Dr bhatti is currently at the top of my list for a bht with body hair. Hope it turns out well for you
  2. Yes but that doesn't require my head to be cut back open, a longer scar, and another 10 days of migraines and sitting up straight. That being said, I would much rather a revision if the results came out close to as promised.
  3. Makes complete sense but there's a lot of risk between what every doctor claims the revision will look like and what will actually look like.
  4. After my last revision I just dont have high hopes and I don't want he scar any larger. It's at the point now where another cm on either side and id be able to see it in a mirror (if I can't see it I don't think about it) I can consider it though. Care to recommend anyone good for a revision?
  5. Thanks man. Bisanga and umar seem to be at the top of everyone's lists. I've filled out both of their online consult forms
  6. just filled out Umar's online thing. Spending $8 a graft is a bit rough so im hoping those discounts make a difference somehow. I leave my hair pretty short (#3-4) so using bht should be ok. id rather not exhaust my head if possible
  7. copied from my previous thread: Im 31 now but at 24 I had my first procedure with MHr in Tampa. small scar, about 4" and I want to say 1300 grafts? My temples were receding bad and they brought my hairline all the way up making it extremely thin and silly looking (I'm assuming to get me back in the door for another surgery). After a couple years my uncle who's a barber in wi told me about his landlord who had the surgery from dr Reese in mn and he couldn't tell anything was ever done. This got me extremely excited to go and have my first surgery corrected. Dr Reese was a former MHr surgeon who went off on his own to cater to patients a bit better. 2nd surgery went fine but I didn't know my scar would end up just above my ears on either side. I'm not sure about my number on this one but I want to say 2000ish. Great dr, great staff, but now this is twice where I'm told my scar should be 1mm or hand wrinkle size. A couple years later after emailing dr Reese's office I fly up there and they did a scar revision and a couple hundred grafts free of charge! Again great dr and great staff all the way but my scar still looks the same. I believe I'm a nw6? and propecia and overseas generic finastride has slowed it down a bunch but I know it'll all be gone eventually. I shave the sides with a 4 and the top with a 3 (I feel like the shorter it is the less thin it appears). Even with the 4 out back the absence of hair on the scar is visible. I'd just rather shave my head at this point but the scar is terrible and looks like a zipper. With thinking about 10 years down the road I'm not sure what to do at this point. I want to laser every other follicle off my body but if it'll be useful somewhere else I'll wait for one one to chime in. So as of today im looking for a FUE dr to pull from my chest, abs, legs, wherever really to fill in my scar and thinnning areas. Ive searched a bit but maybe someone with personal experience can point me in the right direction. Im in FL so a dr in the area would be ideal but not necessary. thanks guys Pics: before any surgeries scar after last revision yesterday before low cut after shaved with a #1
  8. Are there any pics of of good scars or before and after revisions?
  9. What are the elites charging nowadays? All I'd need would be. Revision with a few donors replanted. I don't want my scar any longer than it is
  10. The revision did get he tri closure technique. I haven't cut my hair that short so I can't say it's exactly the same but it is raised in most spots and anything shorter than a #4 will earn me the " hey what's that scar from" questions. Going on a cruise Monday. When I get back I'll cut it a little shorter to show it a bit more. Dr Reese also talked to me about bringing my frontal corners back a bit (mhr's ideal hairline) via the hole punch thing for single grafts but there was a chance of leaving small red dot/scars. Has there been any improvement on those? I'll take a current picture in about an hour and update it into the original post.

After 2 surgeries, before revision: Before anything: Current: Any suggestions on this will be greatly appreciated.
