Also note that strip candidates are much easier to come by than FUE candidates which seem to be more rare. Only the TOP FUE candidates with the right doctor can seem to yield up to 90% growth successfully. An ethical doctor won't perform the surgery if you are not an excellent candidate for FUE. Though Dr. Feller (a very well respected ethical doctor who yields excellent results with both strip and FUE - with the right candidates refering to FUE) that he will ATTEMPT to do the surgery on people he THINKS are candidates, but even then they MAY turn out not to be good candidates and stop the surgery after 45 minutes. I remember this from another thread where I had a detailed debate with Dr. Feller on this. IMO, FUE doesn't seem worth it...HOWEVER, the ones who have had great success with it will disagree with me, and rightfully so in their case. FUE just isn't a surefire thing for everyone where Strip is for most.

Is this true, most people aren't good FUE candidates? What makes someone not a good candidate?

According to the website, 'our charges are based on the use of the operating facility, quantity of surgical supplies utilized, and the number of staff required for your procedure.'

On the website for Dr. Haber, he lists several warning signs that you may be dissatisfied with the results of your surgery. Most of them make sense, but a couple of them threw me.

If your doctor charges by the graft or hair--walk away!

If your doctor claims to be "Board Certified" in Hair Restoration Surgery--walk away!

All the doctors I've researched charge by the graft. Dr. Haber is the only one I know of that doesn't. And I believe most doctors claim some kind of board certification in their credentials.

I'm wondering if Dr. Haber threw these two qualifiers in just to steer business away from every other doctor, and to himself. Or is there something legitimate to what he's saying?
