Wow guys... What a welcome! I start a topic here.. Leave it for 3 days, come back and bam.. 19 replies. I came here looking for peace of mind and thats exactly what I got.. and then some! Thanks you all some much for your advice and reassurance. I will keep you all informed of my progress after my procedure in June. Respect!

Ding! Ding!

Shadow of the EMpire State,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears you are insinuating that there's some kind of dishonest "duel promotion" here with myself and FUE2579, am I right? Well if so, I can assure you, nothing could be further from the truth. Even though my mind was put to a certain amount of ease by FUE2579.. Believe me, I am still scared as Hell about this procedure. Particularly after hearing about the guy who got an infection. Also, the majority of the positive reviews in that link I posted seem extremely conjured and dishonest.

I'm 100% percent legit, and I'm just trying to get some legit Rahal feedback to get things straight in my head.. I want to make sure I've made the right (or wrong??) decision. Any more positive OR negative points would be great.

Ding! Ding!

:confused:

*double post*

I can see why you would be scared. But I only saw 3 bad reviews of which 1 was about not honouring a 61% discount (which is ridiculous). He didn't mention anything about his work or anything. The other one claims Dr. Rahal is terrible and that he messed him his transplant. (no pictures or no link to any thread where he can prove it). He also mentions something about a marketing manager pushing him to make a video? I was NEVER pushed to make any decisions nor was I pushed to make any videos. He says in "good conscience, I can't keep quiet". So in good conscience, why couldn't you post any pics to prove yourself? Makes you wonder....And the third guy claims he messed his head up at age 21 and now he's lost more hair at the age of 26......hair loss is progressive, especially if you are getting a HT at the young age of 21. (Again, no pcitures) And apparently, according to him, Dr. Rahal is no where to be found? LOL....He can be contacted very easily. He also gives you his cell number in case of emergency following your procedure. All the rest of the reviews are great and praise his great work and excellent ethics. Take it from someone who has actually experienced it, you are in great hands buddy. You will see for yourself. When is your procedure anyway?

Nice one, mate. I just needed to hear a voice of reason because all my mates a dissuading me after I told them of that review. Very good of you to practically dissect and debunk pretty much all of those reviews.

Op ain't for another 4 months.. So still a bit of time to go yet.. But yeah, I feel a little more optimistic now:)

Hope your hair continues to grow in nicely.. By the looks of that hairline design you decided on, it's gonna look awesome. Here's hopin mate.

Thanks heaps FUE2579, Your help and reassurance is exactly what I need to hear! And I must say, it looks awesome mate.. Keep it comin'!

Fixed that link there.. So you can see why I got so freaked out.

Hi guys,

Glad I found this place, because I posted this topic on HLT there a few days back but it seems to be a LOTTLE quiet these days (Was a member on there for 10 years!).. I very much hope to make some new friends on here, with whom I can share info and advice with regarding my hairloss

In a nutshell: I'm 35, NW 2.5, booked Rahal, paid deposit...I have chosen him after years of research and until recently, I really had a lot of faith in him with all his amazing before and after photos and the wonderful reception he has received on many a website.

However, just recently, I read these reviews:

Dr. Hussain Rahal - Ottawa, ON - Cosmetic / Plastic Surgeon - 13 doctor reviews | RateMDs.com

Needless to say, one or two of those reviews have me scared to death. This is not the first review I have read which accuses him of "rushing through it". Also, another HT doc I visited not so long ago gave me the exact words: "Dont go to him, thats all I'll say"... I just assumed he was jealous of him at the time and was trying to make a sale. Then I read up on the member who got an infection after a megasession...

Has Rahal lost his touch perhaps? He doesnt seem to be as popular as he once was, or am I wrong?

Please believe me when I say that I am not in any way trolling, I just need some reassurance, given that I'm pretty much locked in now. Any info on this would be so very much obliged.

Thanks in advance, So Long Hair
