Living in Ireland myself and from my research on here and other sites it seems there aren't any recommended clinics in this country

Hey thanks Irish, I tried to order (fincar)from unitedpharmacy but they don't ship to Ireland anymore. I'm gonna go and order from 4rx too.. Tnx again Regards

Hi Irish, can I ask from what site did you order from in the end? Many thanks

Dr.Carman, Thanks for that explanation. If I am understanding it correctly then epinephrine is a drug that restricts bleeding and lidocaine is like an anesthetic i.e the drug that numbs the area. I'm fairly certain I've had a dose of lidocaine before or similar, before getting some deep cuts stitched up in A&E. But my concern would be my reaction to the epinephrine. Rapid heartbeat etc... Or am I to understand patients are given the option to take valium or similar to offset this reation? Many thanks.

Could someone tell me if this drug (epinephrine) is used during FUE surgery or only used in strip? Thanks

Bill, Thanks for you're reply. Yes I have done an online consult through this forum to both surgeons mentioned above. I got no reply so after a few days I went directly to their websites and did the same....Still no reply. So, as was advised by TheEmperor, I rang Prohairclinic just before lunchtime today. The receptionist assured me that Bart would contact me a.s.a.p. I guess he was busy today because I haven't received a call back. No problem. Hey, I'm sure I may get a call in a few days but I still do find it a bit annoying that I'm having to wait almost 2 weeks to just to talk to someone. Surely this isn't the norm though ..or is it? Do they think I'm a tyrekicker?? Is it that DHI are better at responding or maybe they're just not very busy? And on the flipside, are the top surgeons just way too busy and not able to reply for a weeks? Maybe you can recommend another surgeon that specialises in FUE? I live in Ireland and travel is not a problem. I dont't want a (very visable) scar as I want to have the option to buzz my hair to 3mm...blade 1. Or is the tricophytic method worth considering if I shave my head to 3mm...very noticeable scar ? I really appreciate any input. Many thanks Kind regards

Ok then fair enough. Point taken. I'll give them a call. Many thanks for the response.

So if they think only "tyrekickers" email why bother having that facility on their website...? Hmm strange way to do buisness these days..especially when calling from outside the country don't you think? Also, find it strange that ppl would "tyrekick" when it comes to surgery! Its not the same as thinking of buying a new LCD TV is it! I am 100% serious and think its very bad form not to be contacted / replied to ! Don't you agree ?

Tnx hatrick, I thought it was strange too. I have emailed dr.feller twice, and have emailed dr.de reys twice. in the last week. I know dr.de reys is not a coalition memeber here but still has recieved good reviews. The only one that has replied is DHI and from what I can tell they are to be avoided at all cost ! In fact they have emailed me back a few times and rang me twice. Now, if only I could get same reaction from the recommended clinics I would be happy !

Hi, this is my first post in here. I found this site about 6 months ago and it's packed full of some great information so thanks to all for that. Anyway, after a lot of consideration I've made up my mind and decided to get a HT. Now the hard part..deciding on a surgeon. I've emailed 3 surgeons in the last 2 weeks and I find it strange I have had only one reply. The reply came from a clinic that is not recommended on here ! No reply from the other two. I emailed a second time...no reply. Hmm, whats up? Are these surgeons so busy they take an age to make contact you? Will I be waiting a very long time to get a recommended surgeon to do a procedure?
