  1. Dr. Feller and Dr. Bloxham perform FUE in NY. I watched them do it with my own eyes on the day of my procedure on another patient. I know they don't recommend big surgeries with FUE so don't know if they will do 2,500 grafts for you. I chose to have an FUT after they explained the differences
  2. Congratulations Greek Guy. Looks incredible. Big big difference. Can you put up pictures of your latest procedure? Best of luck in your new growth.
  3. I know Dr Feller cut the blades for my grafts because he told me he was doing that then he showed them to me. Not sure about lateral incisions. He went from the front to the back of my head, not the sides or laterally. He used staples to close the donor. They sound like ratchets. Don't know about the other therapies at all. Dr. Feller didn't discuss them with me at all.
  4. HairJo, I didn't have anyone with me for my hair transplant, want to keep it quiet, but there was another patient in the next room getting FUE from Dr. Feller and his wife was there with him the whole time. She was very nice and was nervous at first but said her husband was having no problem at all when we were talking. When I had lunch I was allowed to watch through the window as the FUE was being done. Dr. Feller saw me and gave me a thumbs up. How did he know I was there with those big magnifiers on? Great guy. Lunch at Feller Medical is very good by the way. Get the chicekn ceasar wrap !!!!! Beldar signing off.
  5. Thank you David, I will post my pictures when I get them from Dr. Feller.
  6. Thank you doctor. You and Dr. Feller were great. I can't believe I actually did it and now my hairs are gong to grow instead of fall away. I will be back for pictures soon.
  7. I am from France. Not really, but I am from New York and I want to thank Dr. Feller and his staff for the great day I had with them. I have to admit that nervous doesn't begin to say how I felt before going in to the office and surgical suite. I parked at the office building (lots of parking) and went upstairs and found that I was walking next to somebody. When I looked up it was Dr Feller. He looked at me and said " Are you my patient today?" and I felt much better right then and there. He unlocked the office and after a short wait he took me into the consult room for pictures at different angles. Then he drew a line on my head and it looked perfect. If only he could give me my hair back from that line I would be so happy. Then more people came into the office until like 10 people came through the door. Dr. Feller said they were all here for me. I didn't realize how many people were needed. Anyway, we went into the back and I was given cookies and water and was told to leave my phone on so I could use it during the day. That surprized me. Then two of the ladies came in and cleaned my head and cut my hair in the back. After that, Dr. Bloxham, who is a very very nice guy, came in and made me feel comfortable and numbed the back of my head. I made him take is time and he did. He kept saying no rush and that he'll go at my pace. Before I knew it was really numb. Weird feeling, or should I say lack of feeling. Then dr feller came in and told some pretty good jokes and started taking the strip. I felt nothing. My phone rang and Dr. feller said it was ok for me to answer so I did. I was surprised by that because he kept taking the strip! Then I heard clicks and dr. bloxham said those were the staples going in. Never thought of myself as a piece of paper, but I guess a first for everything. Then before I knew it it was done. Absolutely no pain at all. Then They laid me down and numbed the front. Won't lie, I didn't like that. But it went very fast. While that was happening dr fellers "army" as he calls it were dividing my grafts. There are rooms of techs dividing my grafts and dr feller kept running around to the rooms checking the quality and giving numbers to dr blake. Very organized. Then the doctor started to make holes or slits in the recipient area from my hairline. I was worried the line was washed away but dr bloxham gave me a mirror and I coudl see it was still there. I couldn't believe I would get my hair line back. But he started to make the slits there but not put the hair in. They do that after the slits are made and it gives the techs time to cut out the grafts. So then two of the staff came in, such nice ladies, and started puting the grafts back in. Painless. Totally painless. I fell asleep. When I woke up Dr. Feller was in front of me admiring his handy work. The hairline was done. He asked if I wanted to see it and handed me a mirror. It was AMAZING, I had a hairline again!!! I could see the little hairs. This went on for a few more hours. 15 minutes for lunch then back at it. By 3pm we were done. Dr. Bloxham injected the back of my head for some reason. I wasn't feeling pain. They put a headband on me and then gave me the most generic grey baseball hat I had ever seen. Gave me instructions and I headed home. I went back to have my staples removed and that went well. Thank you Carla! I can still see my hairline to be as the hairs have been growing since the surgery. There are little scabs at first, but they were gone by my forth shower. I want to say a word about Dr. Feller. He is EXTREMELY intelligent and caring. I have met smart men before, but this guy is over the top. And he is funny too. He read me like a book and made me laugh just when I needed it. HIs staff are also the nicest people. Professional and caring. Everyting I was hoping for. I can't say thank you enough to everyone at Feller Medical. I recommend them to anyone who is a bit nervous about having a procedure but want your hair back. Also, I met a few of Dr. Feller's older patients when I was there and they looked fantastic so I am looking forward to joining "The brotherhood" as Dr. Feller calls it. I will post pictures when the doctor sends them to me and I figure out how to do it on here. Good day everyone.
