  1. That's good you're happy so far. Please keep us posted. I strongly encourage you to get on oral finasteride and oral minoxidil. I haven't seen the best results from Dr. Benham.
  2. This is a giant load of horsesh*t. Dr. Bicer does consistently excellent work and Eugenix has multiple packages depending on a patient's budget.
  3. You should definitely tell your surgeon. I think FUE would be better than FUT if you're prone to keloids. Which surgeon is performing the surgery? You'll need someone who is an expert with this.
  4. Great writeup. Have you thought about switching to dutasteride? How about oral minoxidil? Did Dr. Konior perform stick and place mainly or were the recipient sites made beforehand? His work is impeccable.
  5. I think you need a certain number of posts to gain that functionality. Apparently there were a lot of shills hawking clinics via messages so they've restricted it to deal with that issue.
  6. No one can know if you can get away with not using finasteride. You might as well try it and see how your body reacts. It's better to be safe than sorry.
  7. Interesting. I thought that dutasteride would have a higher risk as well since it inhibits 5-alpha reductase more than finasteride.
  8. Yes, I think so. That's also part of the reason surgeons tell patients not to take blood thinners before the surgery.
  9. Yes, certainly. I'm on 2.5mg daily and have had no side effects.
  10. Are you on oral finasteride? Have you considered oral dutasteride? I think to get full coverage about 2,800 - 3,000 grafts would work well. You need a pick someone who has lots of experience with your type of hair/balding pattern.
  11. Looks very good so far. I like Dr. Wong's work a lot.
  12. I've never heard of him or seen any results. In NYC, I think Dorin and Wesley are the best. My preference would be for Dorin.
  13. 1 month in advance is definitely unusual. Which clinic is this? I agree with others, use a credit card!
  14. I recommend paying with a credit card. You never know if they mess up or scam you. You can open a dispute through your credit card. Better to be safe than sorry, especially in Turkey.
  15. This is an interesting topic. I asked a few surgeons this during my consults and they usually said Dr. Gabel, Dr. Konior, and Dr. Mohebi. This is in no particular order. I also heard Dr. Charles and Dr. Dorin mentioned.
  16. Konior and Gabel and Mohebi and Charles. I don't know much about non-US surgeons.
  17. Wouldn't a surgeon who focuses exclusively on hair transplants have better experience and skills than someone who merely dabbles in it? It's tough, tedious, microsurgery.
