Hi guys,
I've been reading the posts on this site for almost a year now and it really helped me decide which doctor to use for my HT so i decided it was time to post and give something back...
I'm currently 38 years old and started losing my hair when i was 30...
Both my hairline and crown area were thinning out so i decided to get a FUT with Dr. Rahal.
I'm located in Toronto, so Ottawa was a short drive for me plus i liked the results of Dr. Rahal's dense hairlines...
When researching HT doctors i looked at 4 facotrs that were improtant to me:
1. Results/Performance
2. Affordability/Cost
3. Location
4. Doctor Ethic
I had also looked into the following doctors:
Dr. Paul Cotterill - Located in Toronto but the results weren't there...
Dr. Hassan & Wong - Performance looks good but I'm located in Toronto so didn't want to fly to Vancouver
Dr. Alvi Armani - Too many unknowns, possbile ethical issue...
I picked Dr. Rahal becuase he fit all 4 of these criteria for me personally...
Dr. Rahal had me intially scheduled for 4000 grafts to give me a dense hairline and cover my crown area...He was able to extract 5044 grafts...He said i had good laxity...
We started at 6:30 AM and 12 hours later, we were done...
Dr. Rahal is very professional and a super nice guy and his team made me feel comfortable and relaxed...
I must have sent Adrian like a hundred emails and he got back to me right away on all of them...
All in all, a very comfortable day...didn't really feel anything and i got to watch 4 movies!
Here are my numbers:
5044 Total Grafts
779 Singles
3088 Doubles
1174 Triples
3 Quads
10,489 Total Hairs
I will post my pics in a weblog shortly...
Thanks Dr. Rahal, Adrian, and team!
That's all for now!
