  1. I prefer shorter hair, I always have.. Fue seems to have scarring that is more noticeable for that. Hmm, I'm definitely going to visit this doctor in Chicago as soon as possible.
  2. That's exactly the information I am looking for! Now is that fue or fut? I'm going to have a consultation with him, I've decided after looking at his portfolio and the massive pour of referrals there has to be a reason.
  3. Ok.. That makes much more sense. I don't know why the price was for a huge range of hairs.
  4. I don't know why it's so bad to have an idea what you should be paying for something
  5. Hey guys, I am in sales. One of the top in my company. I know sales. However, when I have picture proof and I've seen two local docs in Indy. Pai had the best results. Since when does the hair on the back of your head fall out? No one in my family has had this before. Either side. I know my future would be high on the Norwood, but I believe preventive measures will help. FUE2579 I am! And I've dug around for their office and haven't really found anything negative. The doc previously delivered babies, been doing HT only for like 20 years etc. I am coming for advice but when you buy a car you never go in blindly. Why is it so hard to gauge what this should cost approx?
  6. Also, I'd like to note that in 20 years time I'm confident something will be available. If not, I've seen transplants in the crown from body hair even, and that is really the only other concern. The doctor and the consultationists were basically in awe about how incredible my donner hair is. I don't know why it is so hard to figure out what you should be paying for this.
  7. Can anyone give me an idea of koniors pricing? Clearly his work has been done many time to folks here
  8. What is their pricing look like? That is huge for me. This was his response to the grafts We talk about hair numbers because we use a blended graft approach which transplants 2-3 times more hair in a single procedure than is typically done. Most places base what the patient is getting on graft numbers because each graft has 1, 2 or 3 hairs per graft. You can transplant about 1600 grafts in a single 5 hour procedure. You can do more more however the growth rates drop significantly because the time of the procedure is to long and tissue can only be out side the body so long. With 1, 2 and 3 haired grafts, called micro and follicular units, you will end up getting about 1.5 hairs per graft actually growing so if you have 1600 grafts you get about 2600 hairs. You may remember PAI uses what's called Multi Unit Hair Grafting. With this approach we use some of the 1,2 and 3 haired grafts but additionally we use grafts called Multi Unit grafts. These grafts can have 2-3 follicles in one graft so if you have a 3 follicle graft, and each follicle had 2 hairs, then you have 6 hairs in a graft. These grafts still look natural because we keep the natural space between each follicle and they have the advantage of giving more cosmetic impact. So with Multi-Unit hair grafting we use a range of different graft types. Let's say we use 1350 grafts with you. Around 700 of them might be Multi unit grafts with an average 5.5 hairs per graft then the remaining grafts would be the 1,2 and 3 haired grafts for a total of around 5000 hairs. With the approach we use you get more density, better growth rates, a natural look and better value because we are able to transplant more hair in one procedure and you don't typically need multiple procedures in the same area. I'm happy to discuss this further with you, or whomever it is that your liaising with, via a ph call if needed. There is also a lot of information on our website and lots of before and after picture examples of the density and coverage we can give in a single procedure
  9. I've already discussed it with my family and have been back in forth with them for about a month and a half. This spot came open because of and illness and they are booked for about 8 weeks. They knew I was looking to do it soon sometime in winter.
  10. Hey guys, I am looking into getting a hair transplant. I know so many people recommend against it at my age, but I think with the combined fact of using rogaine, propecia I can preserve current hair and get my receding hairline corrected. I only went to one doctor, the PAI group in Indianapolis,IN The Hair Restoration and Hair Transplant Experts - PAI Medical Indiana which I really cannot find anything negative about. I spoke with the doctor, saw previous patients in person, etc. I guess because I have awesome donor hair, I believe they said some of the best they've see, I am very qualified.. (they took some scope to my head and showed me how most follicles have 3 or 2 hairs instead of one.. like most people that have one) The doctor said in my lifetime if I need more surgeries I could get probably at least 3 more after this. I am currently at a norwood 3 and they would be basically redoing my hairline and thickening the thinning frontal area. They want to book my apt this month because a spot came open which is going to save me some money... We are looking at a pricing of about $8,000 for 3800-5500 hairs.. the hariline and some of the area about the sideburn would be restored... I am looking to see if this is a decent pricing option for FUT. I know the doctor has had good success, although not listed on this site. I need to get back to them tomorrow. I've attached the hairline drawn on. The reason I feel confident is the fact that they asked to use my pictures on the website and if I would be willing to review. If they were not confident in success of this, then I dont think that would have been a question. Advise would help!
