YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My first post! So I'm in LA, I'm stubborn, not travelin. Come on, you think there aren't kick-a$$ $urgeons here? This city's the capital of superficial. I'm also not doing FUT... FUT THAT. I'm not gonna wear a scar(let) (letter) for ~10% less transection. 80%'s just fine w/ me. Maybe I'll opt to get 11% more grafts to counterbalance. Boom! Results may vary, gotit.
So... :cool: I got two doc's I'm gonna have a consult for... (3 originally but me thinks Dr. Rahal lures you into an LA consult, but in reality you gotta cross the border. What's that all abooot?) So the two still standing... Dr. Ziering (FUE uses ARTAS) and your demigod Umar (FUE w/ his own technique). I have straight/slightly wavy brown hair (Norwood 2, verging on 3, but stable) so, hopefully, I'm good to go on the former doc. BUT, I know only what I've read, and while my reading comprehension is off the charts! this will be my first experience live in front of a HT professional, so I should have some Q's lined up... right? To help me decide, other than the whole 'go w/ your gut' blibbidy. Maybe the punch hole diameter of those bad boy $200K machines? I dunno. PRICE! Anyone negotiate? What if I offer my modeling services as a poster child for b4 and after? What q's do you wish you asked prior to forking over a deposit or whatnot to have helped you make a better/more informed decision??\
Side note... I like Dr. Mohebi and McAndrews (dude looks like a linebacker!), but it seems like at the end of the day, they're going to push FUT b/c that's their bread and buttah. Any experiences to confirm my suspicion??
Thanks!
Dude
