  1. Hi all. Im doing ok except for the donor area pain. Everything went well and I hope to show you some pics as soon as Dr. Feller sends them to me. Oh and yes my days of buzzing my hair all the way down are gone. I only did this because of the fact my hair grow in very sparse. Thanks all.
  2. PB, I think your much better off then me with your hair. If I were to let mine grow in it would really look sparse. I have been buzzing my own head for a couple years now since my hairloss took off and feel its better off like this than having it any longer, that is until my transplant. Oh, and Feller will be spreading the grafts across the top of my head except for the crown which I hope Propecia will handle.
  3. I put my deposit in for my hair transplant today for my procedure with Dr. Feller of Great Neck, NY. Been a long time coming and I can't wait! Here is a photo of the area he will be working on.

  5. If your hair loss has been sustained for a long period of time the hair in the donor area should be safe.
  6. Hey Fabe here is a good read: http://hair-restoration-info.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3466...531077021#2531077021
  7. I am not sure if he is completely against the idea but every patient is different and Feller will look after your best interests in my opinion. Only a personal consultation will give you the info your looking for as I am only going by past stories I have read on this web site. Do a search on Feller and you will be able to see some past posts about him. Also search for "Reverse the Curse" because his story seems to relate to what you want. I just did a search on Feller on past posts about him and noticed that you have been considering him for awhile. Have you had any consultations yet with any HT docs? If not I understand why you have the questions you do. My advice go to your consultation tomorrow with a list of questions you want answered. Next, make an appointment for another consultation. Try True/Dorin in Manhatten. Try some online consultations with docs like Shapiro. All good choices.
  8. Hey Fabe, when I mentioned before about the size of Feller's procedures it was based on my experience with him during my first consultation and also through other peoples experiences mentioned on this web site. There was one guy who posted here that went by the user name "Reverse the Curse" He ended up going elsewhere for his HT because Feller would not do the megasesion he wanted. Again it's a good idea to consult with different docs to find which one you feel most comfortable with. In the end I feel Feller has my best interests in mind and thats why Im going with him. Once you talk with him I am confident you will feel the same.
  9. Hey Fabe I am going for a consult with Feller tomorrow as well. Just to inform you a little bit on Feller, I have gone for a consult with him before and am now ready for a procedure. I found him to be straight foward and professional. He will most likely draw a diagram on your head to show you the area he would work with. Feller seems to prefer sessions that are not extremly large as others docs might do and he expressed to me that he would do about 2000-2500 grafts on the frontal part of my scalp and the top/crown would be done in a later session so don't expect to get everything done in 1 pass. Make sure you ask him how many procedures it would take to meet your goals. There are other docs out there that will do mega-sessions if thats what you want. Go with what makes you comfortable and take in multiple consultations with other docs as well before you commit. Also, Feller recommended to me to get on Propecia so that the later session for the crown area would possibly not requir as much work. Hopes this helps and maybe I will bump into you tomorrow. My appointment is at 11:30.
  10. So ok im a 26 year old guy that has watched my hair dissappear the last couple years. Im very close to going for a transplant procedure. My reasons behind this are simple. I hate the way my receding hair makes me look BUT even though it can be said that you find some balding men attractive I am sure that you wouldn't find them attractive once you found out how they suffer from low self-esteem due to their hairloss. That is the boat most of us guys are in here. For me personally it is very difficult to see guys my own age with killer hair and then see my own baron scalp in the mirror. While it is true that some guys can rock the balding look I don't feel that I am one of them. Being a gym rat I am all about a healthy athletic look and hairloss in my opinion makes me look unhealthy. Its just how me and the other guys feel here for the most part.
  11. I will be emailing you shortly!
  12. I just got my first months supply of Propecia. It cost $60. Now I knew that I was going to have to pay a bit of money for this but $60 a month!! When I made my appointment with my physician she told me she would not perscribe Proscar because it is for enlarged prostates. Now I know many of you here use Proscar to save $$ so my question is how can I get Proscar or can I find Propecia cheaper elsewhere?? Thanks in advance.

  16. Hey Bill please keep us updated! I was wondering about Dr. Katz's work because he is close to where I live and would save me from traveling far. By the way, what are his rates per graft and/or what was the totel cost of your HT?
  17. Anybody have a HT with Dr. Theodore Katz? If so, how did everything turn out?

  19. Can anyone recommend a HT doc in the PA/NJ/NY area? I've consulted a couple places Bosley and this guy: http://www.medhaircenter.com/
