  1. Hi Rick055 and thanks mate.

     

    I think i was a full norwood 6 mate yes, there was a little bit of hair left there but nothing really noticable.

    Yes i take a quater of Proscar every day and will carry on doing so. There is still plenty of hair that i could lose, under neath the crown and also the horse shoe of hair could get smaller.

     

    Here is apic before any sessions

  2. Hi mate.

    I have done a lot of research Stop Hair Loss Now and would like to think that I have contributed to the forum also as well as the other sites. There is allsorts of good info on there and also a great deal of decent posters. I for one have never given a Dr a hard time or any Dr's patients a hard time neither.

     

    I am definitely not starting another slanging match here mate. I just don't understand how people can slag these sites off when they have never even posted on them.

     

    I actually live in Manchester and went for a consultation at Farjo and got told to get on Propecia by the consultant which I had never heard of but to this day I am still taking it. But when I started to do my research on the internet into HT's there was nothing to be seen about Farjo so obviously I didn't go with them.

     

    I have read on here that Farjo are not allowed to post on Stop Hair loss Now don't know why???? But I don't think there is a reason why you shouldn't post your results on other forums including that one to show your results. What im trying to say is that by you posting your pictures on there and other sites alike will get other clinics noticed to people in the UK.

     

    Cheers

  3. I spent over 2 grand on Laser Hair Treatment a few years back and ended uplooking worse after all the treatment. I dont think it had anything to do with the Laser's but because of having to use the Minox two times a day. So it's safe to say i am not a fan.

     

    It would be interesting to see monthly pictures of progress with the Laser Combs.

  4. Im really sorry about bringing this topic up again but I have only just read through it all and I must admit it has gone a bit too far.

     

    But I am sick of seeing Stop Hair Loss Now and PB hair being dragged through the mud these are two great sites for info on top HT's. Some people on here have reel issues with these sites, these people have never even posted there and don't even intend on posting there.

     

    PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ISSUES WITH THESE SITES JUST DON'T LOG ON TO THEM IT'S THAT SIMPLE.

     

    That said I am happy to go on all the forums including this to ask questions and also to help people out in any way I can.

     

    Peace to all....

  5. Rambler dont take the virtual consultation as gospel but as NervousNelly has said H+W are world class in performing HT's.

     

    Send off your pictures to some other top clinics to get a better idea but you will probably find with all the top doc's there wont be too much of a difference in quotes...

  6. I spent over 2 grand on Laser Hair Treatment and if anything it made things worse for me.

     

    Back to Kriss's origonal post and i can only go off experience on this and i would have to say Feller. I have seen some of Dr Feller's FUE patients in person and i have also seen him at work performing FUE. Dr Feller's work speeks for itself....

  7. Yep good topic Eman.

     

    I have had 5600 grafts planted over the entire top of my head and I should'nt have to worry about any of that hair falling out. But the problem is for me as Bill has said is if you lose any more hair ie under the crown or even if the horseshoe of hair gets smaller. I have about 1000 grafts left in the bank and these will be getting kept for a rainy day if this was to happen.

  8. Cheers Bill.

     

    The first set of pictures I took myself the morning after the op with my camera phone so the quality is not the best and the second set Dr Feller took.

     

    The gap of baldness has just been shaved down and is growing stubble back now. The way I comb my hair will actually compliment the old work too as I comb my hair forward it will give an all round thicker appearance

  9. Thanks for the comments guy's !

    Great write up mate.

    Another year of waiting again but it will be well worth it.

    Cheers Chucky. I know it will be easier than last time mate coz i have some hair now so it shouldnt be too bad.

    Could u have gone for for more grafts?

    No Dr Feller took out as much as he could. I have got about 1000 grafts left if i ever needed more work.

    ng2bg, lol, i was wondering the same thing about the background flat screen. looks like stevo really "enjoyed" his stay at the hotel.

    Guy's, guy's it's VH1 that's on th tv in the backround. Britney Spears and Nelly Furtado on the tv hardcore i know icon_wink.gif

  10. Congrats! Was this your first HT? Also, do you have any immed post-op pics? (not a big deal, obv, I just never get tired looking at them lol...)

     

    No this was my 2nd HT i had 3000 grafts with Dr Feller in Januray last year. I was a norwood 6.As soon as i get the immediate post op pics i will put them up.

     

    I see you have just had work done, how's things?

  11. Hi all

    Just got back this morning and everything went great. Dr Feller and his staff were amazing once again. I ended up getting 2600 grafts.

     

    Arrived in NYC 12 noon on the Sat, stayed in the Wellington on Sat night. Done all the city stuff on the Sat and most of the day on Sunday. Got the train from Penn Station to Great Neck at about 5 pm on Sunday and this cost $14 and took about half an hour. I stayed in The Andrew in Great Neck on Sunday and Monday night and had the op on the Monday. The Andrew is a nice hotel as people have already mentioned and Great Neck itself is a very nice place, very quiet. I photo copied a map that someone had put on this site that shows you the directions from the Andrew to Dr Feller's office and took it with me so that I could walk to Feller's from the hotel. Done a dummy run on the Sunday and walked to Dr Feller's on the Monday for the op. (Nice walk)

     

    Got to the doc's office at about 7.20 and the doc turned up at about the same time. I went through with the doc what I was after which was getting my crown filled in and to slightly lower the hairline. I have been pondering on what to do for round 2 for a while now and in the end I figured that I just want the crown filling in and the hairline lowering. I could of gone and got the hole area thickend up but all I have to do with my hair is ad a little topic fibres and it looks great (a lot thicker) so instead of thickening up I decided on lowering the hairline and filling the crown in to give me complete coverage Dr Feller agreed that this was a good plan.

     

    So the op was pretty much the same as everybody explains it. Dr Feller drew in the new hairline and the pattern in which the hairs will go in the crown. One of the techs then shaves the donor area where the strip is going to be taken from. Then off for the injections to numb the donor area (ouch) there not that bad really and then the doc takes out the strip and the techs begin to separate the grafts. I didn't need that much shaving down on the recipient area because my crown was pretty much slap bald and the front was just getting lowered. The doc then does all the incisions for the recipient area which takes time and complete concentration and then it's time for the techs to come in and insert the new grafts. Sounds dead easy but we was there from 7.30 till about 3.30 so it is a long day. My crown didn't bleed so much for the techs but my forehead was really bad for some reason Dr Feller says I have scar tissue on my forehead and this is probably the reason. Ive probably missed bits out from the day but you get the drift.

     

    Dr Feller is not only a great surgeon but a great guy too. I forgot to pick up my painkillers that the doc prescribes and got back to the hotel with no painkillers (bad move). Dr Feller went out of his way to come up to my hotel to drop the painkillers off for me. Thanks for that mate. (and thanks spex for getting the no for me)

     

    All in all everything went well I even went down to Feller Medical on the Tuesday and watched Dr Feller performing an FUE surgery which was very interesting to see how it is done.

     

    So now im a day and a half post op and my recipient area is itching like mad but I cant touch it. I have cleansed it this morning when I got back and I think im going to do it again now to try and stop the itching.

     

    Here's some pics i took the morning after the op at the hotel with my camera phone. Sorry if the quality is poor.

  12. Where is the proof that the Farjo Clinic is on par with the top doc's ? The Farjo Clinic is less than 10 minutes from my house and instead of travelling 10 minutes up the road I am going to be travelling across the Atlantic for my second HT. I have seen plenty of bad work from Farjo online, to put me off ever going there and also met an ex patient in person.

     

    I know there's a poster on here who's work looks good and I know Pat has put some pics up that look good too. But to be persuaded to go there for my HT I would need years of continuously good work shown online and I would need to see a handful of these patients in person too.

     

    Sorry to be so negative but the majority of results I have seen online have not been good.
