Hello, i read on the forums from time to time over the past few years and this site has been a tremendous value of resource. I am hoping to get some guidence on picking the best FUE surgeon. I know "best" is a bit subjective and there is likely no one best, but a teir of top surgeons. either way I'd hoping to get some guidence and hopfully this thread can be of good resource for someone else in the future as well. I've had consultations with Dr Lindsay in VA, and Dr Vogel in MD, and an online consult with Hassan & Wong. I was told I have limited donor since my density is not very high so I think its especially important for me to pick wisely in terms of someone who can efficiently extract and implant with high survivability, and someone who is good at creating natural look. Dr Lindsay says he is hesitant to do my hair, even just 500-800 grafts. Its possible he airs on the side of extreme caution, or he just may not be the best FUE guy. It seems like he typically does FUT. Dr Vogel says he is confident in doing 1200-1400 FUE as that is all thats needed right now. He says if i need additional in the future, we'd figure out where to get grafts then. (a little unsure of what that means) Hassan and Wong also said 1200-1400 (virtual consult) Two surgeons I'm considering right now is Dr Vogel in Maryland, and Hassen & Wong in Vancouver. I know both of them have had recognition in the past but curious if they are considered the top tier in North America? Canada actually has travel restrictions at the moment so thats a bit of a challenege. I know some people on here are really passionate about the industry and keep up with who is doing what. Let me know if you have any other opinions worth sharing?

Dr Lindsay in Virginia shared something that I'd consider if you have Asian hair. Asian hair tends to grow out rather than down. Your FUT scar would be more apparent. You'd have to have longer hair to hide the FUT scar.

@Melvin-Moderator Link no longer works. Also curious to see a list of top surgeons. I'd hate to make a new thread as similar topic has probably been covered before.
