well, Turkey has a couple great doctors but also has quite a few clowns so ur question is too vague. I wud chose Erdogan over Rahal tho since Edogan is the best in Turkey hands down no debate. I think u will get better density and it will cost a hell of a lot less. hairline design wud be close imo.

I have used that as well. its very anabolic. it actually causes muscle hyperplasia if injected directly into muscle.

I never noticed any hair growth tho.

its more directed at adding muscle cells. HGH wud be used for cell repair and might very well be beneficial to a HT. I don't see a nexus with IGF1-LR3 and hair follicles growing any better tho.

One has to give credit to docs like Vories who demonstrate flexibility and the integrity to change course when they believe another methodology is superior as well as to offer it at an affordable price point.

lol yea I wud agree with the 40% being laughable. the results just aren't that noticeable. in fact, from the top doctors I just don't see any discernible differences and wen u add in the strip scar its just a no brainer but I'm just not seeing FUT produce and different results from FUE these day.

shiit, I mean doctors are consistently producing 5000-6000 grafts these days FUE. thats no more then were seeing with FUT. that many grafts use to be a mega session only reserved for FUT but thats just not the case these days and not to mention wen u add in BHT u can see over 7000 grafts planted via FUE so the unlimited donor supply of FUE is a clear advantage of FUT if were talking how many grafts u can cram on ur head.

maybe on paper more survive via FUT but no ones looking at paper their looking at ppl's heads and the one thing that ppl notice most is the dreaded strip scar NOT less grafts wen comparing the two.

thanx for the clarification. the work does look pretty good tho considering how thin he was prior.

gotta love Dr. Maras's hairlines. its amazing how natural they look after they have healed. they seem a little too creative at first but in the end they look totally natural.

challenging case. very impressive!

actually FUE is called the Wooodzzz technique if you want to get technical..... don't hear anyone referring to FUE as the Wooodzzz technique these days do ya?

who gives a rats ass wat someone wants to call their new technique. Dr. A calls his technique FUSE. ppl are getting their panties in a knot cause someone wants to introduce a modified technique and give it a name. hence m (Modified) FUE.....

wat u think the entire HT industry is now at risk cause one doctor wants to refer to his technique as a modified version of wat we all know? u act like there is a copyright to the FUE technique or somthn.

heaven forbid a doctor introduces somthn new that might benefit some ppl. this whole argument is so ridiculous! if ur not interested in that technique then don't go there or refer anyone there. pretty simple.

WTF does someone introducing a modified version of an existing technique have to do with integrity? its called progress and advancement. thats a bad thing?

thats like saying a car manufacture can't come up with new or modified headlights. right now we know HID stands for (High intensity discharge) and LED stands for (Light emitting diode). they BOTH both project light and their BOTH found on modern cars.

shud we question the integrity of headlights now cause manufactures are now offering LED's and HID's? so now no manufacture can come up with a new design and call it somthn different? again, they both project light. just like both FUE and mFUE are transplant techniques.

see how absurd this argument is sounding......

yes but how many beard hairs were transplanted? cause 4500 sure didn't come from the beard alone. ur title is terribly misleading.

very natural lookn

nice work. did the donor come from his beard or head?

thats wat ur research has come up with? id say keep researching. there are far better option for far less money. where do u live?

this is another perfect example as to why doctors need to be recommended for the type of transplants they SPECIALIZE in. everyone knows that H&W does great strip work but someone wanting FUE wud simply look at the recommended doctors and ASSume they do that just as well.

that is just simply not the case. I don't doubt over time they could hone their skills with FUE but until then I wud go with someone who SPECIALIZES in FUE.

ur best facial plastic surgeons on the planet do facial plastic surgery ONLY. same goes for the best FUE doctors they only do FUE.

if u want strip H&W is the place to go imo but then u risk the dreaded ear to ear scar on the back of ur head.

imo those that are using ARTAS just don't have the skill to perform it themselves and are relying on a mechanical machine to help with their shortcomings as a skilled doctor.

BUSA, you seem to be on a campaign here....wondering what your agenda is?

"Bhatti isn't even in the same universe as those two".....that is a very strong "verdict". Wondering if you have any data to backup your "consistent Dr. Bhatti bashing". Which "universe" are you talking about.....rather which "universe" do you live in.......most certainly not the same universe as the hundreds of extremely satisfied Dr. Bhatti Patients.

 

Take care,

California

he's great for those on a limited budget but his work just isn't anywhere near as good as those two. thats not an opinion, those are hard FACTS! sorry if that offends you but the OP asked a question and he got an answer.

post a poll and list those three doctor and ask "If u had to chose between these (3) doctors which one wud u chose? and lets see how many ppl chose Bhatti over those two.

and lets be real here. "Hairlines" is NOT Bhatti's specialty. there has been numerous threads created over the last year or two complaining about Bhatti's hairline design. its better now then it was but again comparing Bhatti to those two wen comparing hairlines quality, design and density its not even a debate. and I know ur well aware of that to.

the hairline is probably the most important part of a HT and he just doesn't do it as well as the other two. its a simple fact that has been proven time and time again.

I'm personally baffled at the hostility to this technique. Why not let it mature and judge it on its merits? If the results are good, that is the only thing that matters, if they are not, presumably Feller & Bloxham will discard and move on.

I think ppl are confused here. I don't think their trying to re-invent the wheel here. just giving ppl additional option. how is that a bad thing?:rolleyes:

Are the scars at 3 and 9 o'clock remnants of the strip scar or new from the so called mFUE? Either way a few hundred beard FUEs would have rendered the FUSS scar invisible and avoided a withdrawal from the precious scalp donor bank. I had a much worse linear scar treated with 301 beard grafts a year ago and it is now history, pifft.....gone forever!

great lookn hairline. I agree for the hairline u want singles and there are more singles lower down in donor zone.

Hi eveyone!

 

in the last month i could see some segnificant change!

I just hope it will keep on growing like this

 

what do you guys think?

wow! nice work.

if ur gonna go FUE which is highly recommended over FUT imo I wud keep searching. better choices for far less money.

but if ur ok with a linear scar then id go H&W. they do seem to be the most successful with FUT these days.

Erdogan hands down. not only cheaper but better. hairlines are as good as they get and he crams a shiit load of grafts in there for density. Bisanga is too conservative with hairlines and Bhatti isn't even in the same universe as those two imo.

lmao.... u sound really dumb no offense and so do u hairweare. so because he is a moderator that works with a highly skilled doctor that means he can't post a new technique the doctor has been working on that might help people and reduce scaring?

this is a debate like all new techniques are which is why we have forums to discuss different opinions and techniques and hear what others think.

got any other bright ideas?:rolleyes:

Blake with all due respect you are a moderator you should not be allowed to be plugging this (new) technique there is definately a conflict of interest here and imo there has been with you for some time.

When you say that (your) (new) technique has less ttransection than standard fue on what are you basing this statement? How do you know the transection rates of any drs? You don't. You can't.

I thought you said you were not going to make any wild claims you could not back up.

With (your technique)I would suggest that the chance of transection is greater because it must be that much harder working with the bigger punch and the greater the donor density the more chance there must be of transection surely?

The biggest benefit I see in this approach is to the us clinics were they can utilise techs to a certain degree in the procedure as its basically mini strip.

Show us the recipient areas.Show us the donor shaved down close.Fingers holding back hair on a strip scar does not reveal much then when we see it shaved down for a fue op its a tottally different kettle of fish.

Shows us please erdogans's bisangi's lorenzo's transection rates.You know you cannot so stick to what is fact without putting down proven technique to big up one you are promoting and selling.

Quit as a mod or stop promoting what your selling and stop attacking the proven effectiveness of fue its what more and more people are opting for.

BUSA,

 

We don't have costs fully established yet. However, it will NOT be more expensive than traditional FUE. Plus, it is much more time efficient. Like Dr Lindsey said above, the time of the procedure is closer to strip than traditional FUE. If "time is money," this should be good news.

 

I'm also contemplating whether it would be more reasonable to price the procedure based on session size rather than cost-per-graft. This is how it's done in strip versus FUE, and it may come out more fair and balanced in the end.

FUE or FUT?

don't care for the hairline and u left a huge gap in the temple area. he still looks like he needs another HT to address his hairline.
