  1. I was scared and skeptical about this Doctor.. I can honestly say that she truely is professional and that she will give you the best transplant that she can give you whether that will be more.. or in some cases less. I wanted my hairline , temple points AND my crown worked on.. but I went to other Doctors prior to visiting her to get opinions and quotes as well as professional recommendations.. Dr Jeffery Epstein who is highly reputable quoted me 12000 to do 2200 grafts along my hairline and temples. I was ready to pay this but i did not have the money.. but at 37 years old, i cannot afford to make a mistake on choosing solely on price. I did my research and took a visit down to the Dominican Republic, to speak to the doctor and actually didnt get to see her because i ran out of time.. it was actually my fault. anyway.. I put down the deposit and left.. after I left i felt good about taking ownership to a plan to do something with this doctor. I can honestly say that in March 3rd i flew back and spent 2 weeks in the Dominican Republic.. I met with the doctor.. did the labs.. I took my time.. Spoke with Vanesa Bos.. she is fantastic and speaks excellent english (she is dutch) > Dr Reyes also speaks english very well as does her husband Eldad. I met with Dr Reyes a week before the procedure and she was extremely honest and professional during my eval. I had 2 previous sessions of 1100 and 800 grafts.She recommended that i focus on the hairline and the temple points.. and said that she did not reccomend the crown area due to the tightness and donor area at this time.. I must say... I really felt relief hearing this doctor take a professional approach.. but I was also educated knowing what other well respected surgeons recommended on previous evaluations/ consultations. I ended up getting 2200 grafts and it looks pretty good. i had alot of swelling in the recipient area and i took lots of pictures.. I will upload them .. so far it looks pretty good. I used the graftcyte spray i had from a previous session in 2007. I dont know if that spray has an expiration date but it seemed to work well alleviating the tightness on the recipient area and kept the grafts moist.
  2. i went to her office in january and gave her a deposit.. but i am still researching her too! i have a procedure scheduled on the 12th of march... I just saw the pictures from 2yrcoverup and the scars do not look good! i am scared to say the least.. however i have a friend that is an actor.. Christian Carrabias (latin actor) and he had a procedure done with her and with good results.. so i am unsure
