To the OP's question. I would absolutely consult with Feller. He doesn't put any time or resources into keeping his website up to date. If you consult with him, he can show you a dozen cases similar to yours he has stored on his computer. I know in my case, it was reassuring to see outcomes of patients that had similar hair loss/characteristics as mine. I'm not saying you shouldn't also consult with some of the fine doctor's that have already been mentioned here, But I think including Feller in your consultation list is appropriate. I've had one procedure with Feller and another with Feller + Bloxham just one month ago......

Yes, I do. Do you mean you're not satisfied with the density or how many hairs/ cm2? I don't think that is going to improve unless you get another HT. I had the same concern. But as I understand it, the hair will continue to thicken and mature up to 2 years post HT. Honestly, I would be over the moon if I had your results. But if you are concerned you should absolutely reach out to your surgeon. But I think you're going to notice a big improvement from month 7 to 12.

Damn dude!! Who was your surgeon? These are impressive results for only 6 months. I think your hair looks fantastic and you should just enjoy it. -Joe

Stig, I would say that is accurate but misleading. Dr. Feller was there for every important milestone during the procedure, including strip removal which I failed to mention earlier. I don't think his presence was required for every one of the 1700 slits made to my head. -Joe

Hey Stig, Thanks for the reply. Dr. Feller and Dr. Bloxham were in constant communication with each other. From the pre-op consultation and planning through to the post-op care instructions and questions session at the end. They were in constant communication throughout the surgery on how well they were executing on the plan we all agreed on. I must admit I dozed off several times during the procedure but Dr. Feller came in at least 5 times that I can remember. It was a very collaborative effort. I also must give a shout out to the staff. I think all of the techs that did the graft implantation this year were there for my first procedure. They are quick, accurate, efficient, and personable as well. Sorry if I sound like a fanboy but my experience at this office has been overwhelmingly positive. -Joe

Long time lurker/ first time poster.... I just wanted to say this site has been an invaluable resource for me in researching and choosing my HT surgeon. Choosing the right surgeon is critical to obtaining an aesthetically pleasing cosmetic HT result. I can't express how grateful I am to this community and it's members for contributing so much valuable information for hair loss sufferers. Hopefully this is my small act at giving back. I had my first HT surgery with Dr. Feller on Jan. 17th 2015. He "installed" 2500 grafts to the frontal third of my scalp. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. It has done wonders for my self-esteem and confidence. Naturally, when it came time for my second HT procedure I didn't even consider going anywhere else. I met with both Feller and Bloxham over the summer of 2015 and discussed the plan to attack my thinning crown. I had my 2nd HT surgery about two weeks ago on Jan 14th, 2016. Dr. Bloxham performed the strip removal and created all the recipient site slits. Having my first procedure with Dr. Feller, I can honestly say I did not feel I was in the hands of a "lesser" surgeon. Dr. Bloxham checks, double-checks, and triple-checks his work. He is meticulous. His bedside manner was great. Perhaps even better than Dr. Feller's. I seem to be particularly sensitive to the pain of the numbing needles and Dr. Bloxham went at my pace frequently asking if I needed breaks. I suppose questions will exist regarding the success of Dr. Bloxham's work until his results have grown out and people post them. I'm not particularly worried. This office has a track record of success and I feel confident that Dr. Feller would not risk his reputation by putting someone in that wasn't ready. I am in no way a representative of Feller and Bloxham. Just a happy client that wanted to pass along my experience..... -Joe
