What happens alot in surgery is the new hair replaces the existing hair.
If he wasnt on propecia and the hair was already weak then it was more then likely permanently shocked out.
You would be surprised how many results on here looked like this if the clinic showed a topdown shot.
Dr Meija ,Rassman , and many more is good at avoiding those shots as they dont want the true story told .
I at least give credit to this doc for showing us this shot from above.
Also a doc who once worked with or for another doctor will not guarantee the same type of results.
Its the techs that make or break a surgery.
Sharon Keene also worked with Shapiro and shes fantastic .
I believe Charles works with Epstein now
