  1. Yes this topic has come up numerous times on this forum, however a quick search shows that the last time this topic was discussed was over a year ago. New surgeons come, old one's go, (and some old ones just get better and better) and so on so I think it's important to constantly have an updated list for those of us who are just starting our search for the perfect HT doc. Looking forward to your responses!
  2. Hi, I am a victim of Dr. Jeffrey Epstein and as such, 5 years ago when he did my HT, he put my hairline about a centimeter too low (also about 80 percent of the grafts died but that's another story). That's not just my opinion, that is the opinion of 2 separate HT docs. Anyway, my original thought was to remove the hairs that Epstein placed at the hairline and replant them further back via FUE, but when I met with Dr. Rose he told me that it would not be feasible to remove the transplanted hairs via FUE and that I would be better off just using a laser to remove the hair at the hairline. I guess I'm wondering if that's the final word on the subject? Do you guys think another doctor might be able to remove the hair at the hairline and re-transplant it via FUE, or is Dr. Rose probably right? It just doesn't make sense to me.....why can docs remove hair from the back of the head via FUE and transplant them, but hair from the hairline can't be moved? Thanks a lot!
  3. I had a procedure with Dr. Epstein about 5 years ago and he did a God aweful job. First of all he put the hairline about a centimeter too low and second, about 80 percent of the grafts DIED. Third, I have a huge scar that is constantly bothering me. I met with Dr. Rose and Dr. Nusbaum and they directed me to a dermatologist who I am having to pay to remove about a centimeter from my hairline with a laser. Can you believe that? So Dr. Epstein basically wasted countless thousands of potential donor hairs so now I assume I am very limited in how many I have left. His procedure used 3000 grafts (FUT) so how many do I have left? I often feel despair about what Epstein did to me and honestly, I only went to him because at the time this site recommended him so I assumed he was one of the best. It's actually painful for me to even write this post. I went in thinking I was getting a new hairline and it has been nothing but a nightmare ever since. Anyway, back to my question..... How many grafts do I have left?
  4. I'm sure this has been mentioned, but if you put couvre or another concealer on your scar, it would completely disappear. You actually are one of those guys that looks good bald if you ask me and the scar looks much worse to you.
