This patient mid-20s underwent FUE hair restoration to address hairline recession and frontal erosion. 2723 grafts were extracted and transplanted over two sessions. As with many of our younger patients, we initiated medical therapy as well at the onset of his transplant journey. He has seen stabilization in the top/crown and is enjoying the transplant result in the frontal region. Bio-adjuncts PRP used intraoperatively and liposomal atp spray post-operatively. -
Hey all, I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. I love this site! I've been doing so much research over the last few months on surgeons, procedures, everything. Very excited to say I booked a procedure with True and Dorin in NYC for September 19th. It's only for 1800-2000 grafts but I'm planning on doing a follow up FUT procedure of another 1800-2000 8 months after the first to increase density. He said my lifetime donor supply is only 5500-6000, and I'm between a Norwood 3V to 4 with likely progression to 5/6 over lifetime. Sadly the crown won't be completely covered, but I'm conside -
1400 graft FUE FULL journey
Melvin-Moderator replied to Dangrowthfactor's topic in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
Six months is early, but given the area that was covered, I think it's clear more grafts are necessary for optimal density. I would give it a few more months before consulting with other surgeons. A few on the east coast worth consulting with is Dr. Wesley, Bernstein, True and Dorin, and Bloxham. Although, i'm not sure Bloxham will agree to do FUE.- 103 replies

Thank you for the insight, BeHappy. That logic definitely makes sense to me, part of the reason I decided to go with True and Dorin. I like the idea of being able to reevaluate progress after seeing results of first procedure and then pivot accordingly for second procedure. This is a marathon, not a sprint! Some of my family had concerns if the lower hairline in the first picture I posted was too low or too straight (didn't have enough mature hairline recession built in - wouldn't look natural), but I'm going to trust in the surgeon with experience - I think they're crazy, and might just

Should I consider surgeons outside NYC?
aaron1234 replied to indecision2020's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
A common trope on the forum is don't let location be the determining factor in selecting your HT surgeon. I agree with that 100%. However, you've already had three in-person consults with reputable docs in NYC, so if you really clicked with one of them then go for it! If you're still not sure, get more consults with elites like Shapiro, Konior, H&W, etc. Like @Concord75 said, check out True & Dorin as well. -
Should I consider surgeons outside NYC?
Concord75 replied to indecision2020's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I’m in almost same exact situation as you, decided to go with True and Dorin. I think it’s nice to not have to leave the city for follow up visits, or for second surgery, etc. The other thing that struck me was speaking to patients that told me they traveled here from elsewhere to go to T&D or surgeons you mentioned. It seemed to me that there aren’t that many surgeons that do “mega sessions” (3000 graft+ in one session) in NYC. Also, as I’m sure you know, surgeons here charge consultation fess. If I could go *anywhere*, the other option I was strongly considering was Hass -
True and Dorin aren't known for megasessions. They prefer to do 2 smaller sessions. There are pros and cons to each method. Most men tend to go back for a 2nd session anyway to fill in any spots that they feel may be lacking, so planning for 2 sessions to begin with isn't always different than what ends up happening many time anyway. The idea with planning for 2 sessions is, for example, they can transplant 2000 grafts to the frontal half during the first transplant and then when you come back for another 2000 grafts you can decide if and how much you feel you need to thicken up the front whil -
what is the outgoing price for FUE graft in USA compare to other countries. which clinic do you recommend. i am from connetcut. i got a price of $19 500 for 3000 graft in NY using the robot. I just want to know if is it to expensive ?
Melvin-Moderator replied to rica's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
We have a few options in New York, True and Dorin, Dr. Wesley, Dr. Bloxham, Dr. Ron Shapiro in Minnesota. Check out our recommendations here: https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/surgeon-list/NY/New-York https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/surgeon-list/MN/Minnesota -
Okay, so I've been scouring this forum for results posted by Dr. Wesley's office, and I've noticed that you're pretty skeptical of his abilities. I've looked into doctors in New York including Bloxham, Shaver, Dorin and Wesley. I'm leaning towards Wesley now. I was really apprehensive when I saw his results because I thought the same thing as you seem to think. For NW 2/3 recession, he gets pretty meager coverage for the numbers of grafts he uses. But the specific technique he uses actually has a unique appeal compared to a lot of HT docs, at least to me. His whole thing is not just covering t -
Hi all, I'm a bit out of the loop with who the best surgeons/practices are today. Can anyone make some recommendations for a good Dr. to chat with in the NYC area? I consulted with True & Dorin a few years back, but more just to get a sense of cost/donor area/etc. At that point I wanted to try finasteride before even thinking about an HT, and that was his advice too. I tried it, got terrible sides, can't use it, and now want to have get a couple of updated opinions on what a potential long term plan which 100% excludes fin might look like. Would love to speak to 2, maybe 3, diff

NYC Doctors
Melvin-Moderator replied to BaronVonHairline's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
True and Dorin are great choices, definitely take a look at Dr. Wesley, if you’re interested in FUT Bloxham is a good choice. Take a look at their profiles and see who impresses you. https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/surgeon-list/NY/New-York -
Wow, amazing results! I have a procedure booked with Dr. Dorin for next month and this makes me feel confident in that decision.

I totally agree! I was expecting 2500-3000 grafts minimum for first procedure, and I don't necessarily want to immediately do 2 back to back procedures for obvious convenience purposes, but I'm trusting that Dr. Dorin is an expert. They said that he might be able to get 2200 grafts on surgery day. I think he also wants to be conservative with donor supply. He mentioned my age (33) and the fact that I could lose more hair and said I have above average density/scalp laxity but the donor area is narrow so lifetime 5500-6000 grafts. I also want to be conservative, but at the same time don't

Dr. Dorin performed an utra-refined FUT consisting of 2008 grafts - 644 singles, 1245 doubles, 119 threes.Propecia initiated at the same time as his procedure. This is an auspicious start and atypical but we do see this from time to time. Usually this stage of development can be expected at around the 8 - 10 month mark.

Is a FUT really what you want? That scar ear to ear is no joke. Plenty of FUE docs are out there that are top-tier that may be able to help you. Bloxham seems to do sound work via FUT but FUE is a no go there IMO. I did not have good results at that practice but that was back when it was Feller only. Early 2000's Got a badly stretched scar twice from 2 FUTs at that practice that resulted in a 3rd procedure and a failed attempt of FUE into the scar there as well. "0" growth occurred. Felt completely dismissed by the practice as a previous patient of 3 procedures upon return

Went for an 800 graph transplant on Jan 17th by Dr.Dorin...He performed a 1400 graph transplant in March of 2010.. The 1400 graph one came in nice but I have to tell you once you have this so called hair loss gene it doesnt seem to stop...Took propecia for 3 years straight about 8-9 years ago and if it really did work would I have went for 4 HTs? 2 by Bosley 2 by Dr.Dorin,I am a 48 year old male.. Dont feel like shelling out 65-70 dollars a month on Propecia especially with all the hype about a lower sex drive..Lets face it, we are men and of course as you get older, you do slow down b

Check out our recommendations in the link below, all of our recommendations are thoroughly vetted, and out community votes them in based on their results and ethics. Dr. Bloxham is one of them, but you should take a look at Dr. Wesley, True and Dorin as well.

I wish True and Dorin got more play on this forum. Yes I get people are cost conscience and travel for a hair transplant is common to save $$$....but after consulting at different places and having work done a True and Dorin I was thrilled. They are damn expensive relative to getting travel cosmetic surgery done so I guess this is the problem for many but they are top tier IMO. I'm in talks to have a beard and scalp FUE HT with them in August at the practice to better a rather hopeless situation I have been in. They already successfully resolved a scar issue via FUE that was an absolute -
How did the back graft extraction go? True and Dorin tried a test on my back, but it didn't go well. I think he did about 20 attempts and only got 4 or 5 good grafts. Plus he said it was really tearing the flesh apart and he was afraid to try more for such a low yield if it was going to leave bad scars there. I may eventually have them try again with a different punch tip. I think he used a straight tip rather than a flared one, but I'm not positive. So far I've had a little over 4600 body hair grafts total splitting it almost even between chest and beard. I'd love to be able to get near 10,00

I have had roughly 6000 strip procedure Grafts done by Dr. True of True and Dorin medical. The results have been very good. But as you can see one of the scar area is very large in one place. After visiting with another prominant hair replacement surgeon I was told this is due to a poor knotting teqnique and that I could absolutely add some grafts to the area via a FUE procedure and also some micropigmantation tattooing..when I asked Dr.true if he would do something about it because I felt he was obligated to fix it he said he couldnt and that I should do scalp tatooing at one of his partners -
Hair transpants in New York
Huw replied to Huw's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Thanks lots for taking the time to reply. I will post pictures shortly when I've better light, but essentially it's the entirety of my scalp that's thinning, plus some recession at the front. I'm willing to travel the Eastern Seaboard, of course--I suppose I just imagined it'd surely be possible to find a good person here in NY. I did indeed check the Prescreened Physician listing for NY, which recommends Bernstein, Dorin, True, Wesley and Bloxham, all names I've seen around. If anyone has advice on likely price ranges I'd welcome that also. And apologies if my questions are crazily broad -
Dr. Dorin performed an ultra-refined FUT for this female patient to lower her hairline contour. 1624 grafts allocated to the temporal/corner/frontal peak regions.572 singles, 895 twos and 157 threes. Liposmal atp post-operative application on the grafts and PRP injections done intraoperatively. 12 month result.

What do you mean by doing the extractions? At True & Dorin in NY Dr Dorin does the incisions/ punches/ whatever you call it and here's a tech working with him to pull them out.

Best (!) doctors for FUE ?
Portugal25 replied to Dodocc's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Eugenix is good but not on the same level as the FUE ICONS you contacted. Other icons are Bisanga, Lupanzula, Muresanu, True&Dorin and Ron Shapiro. You should check real patient results from all these doctors before making a decision as you might find you like the hairlines and techique of one over the others.
