Showing results for 'Dr. Jerry Cooley'.

I thought sharing my experience might be helpful to others and to show my progress so far. I am 38 years old and have fine hair. I plan to update monthly for the first year or so. About a year ago I started to think about getting a HT after gradual thinning for several years. I first started Finasteride Oct 2019. I discovered this forum around that time and looked at results and reviews of many of the recommended surgeons. I did not mind traveling or price in terms of limiting my options. I first sent photos to H&W and they said I would be a good candidate for FU -
Surgeons experienced with Asian Hair Transplants
azn_guy replied to gambit's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
note, there are differences, Asian hair might be thicker but there is less of it compared to caucasian hair, so it's important that the doctor is comfortable with that and understands where to place follicles., etc... Private Message me if there are questions you want answered and I can help clarify if you'd like! I have a pretty wide scar which Dr. Cooley tried to revise but it didn't work, so scar revision would be top of my mind for my future HT (in my case, steroids in that area will be super important) -
Have you consulted with any of these surgeons? I definitely suggest submitting consultations and speaking to each doctor. I’d add Dr. Cooley to that list. -
Hi all I’ve had some great consults over the past year and finally made the decision to book a procedure. However the more consults you do, it seems that the decision on which procedure and who to go with starts to become very difficult. I am currently 37 and on Finasteride 1mg EOD and using Minoxidil once per day on the crown. Definitely feel like a NW 6 is what the final end point wants to become. I’ve narrowed down my choices and leaning towards an FUE with Dr. Wong or Shapiro. Any transplant vets that might have gone FUE first and regretted as things progressed? I currently we -
Hey everybody. Hope y’all are doing well in COVID-19 times. So I went ahead and did a hair transplant. Thought I’d post my results as the months go along. I lurked this forum for a while before deciding to get my scalp harvested. I appreciated the honest feedback/recommendations here so I thought I’d make a post so others with similar level of baldness/hair type can get an idea of what to expect with the # of grafts I got. I’ll update as things progress. Details: -31 years old -Had the surgery on 17/08/2020 - Started finasteride 8 months before FUE. See -

Nothing to be sad about man. I’m good. Wish I never did anything to my head, but At least my hairline looks normal again thanks to Dr. Cooley. -
This is the thread I remember. i even commented but the person who works for Dr. Cooley never followed up. That being said I will look into exosomes -
Looks great! I’d be thrilled. Dr. Cooley is one of the three I’m considering. Thanks for the updates!

UNNATURAL HAIRLINE - REPAIR NEEDED
aaron1234 replied to HairNTear's topic in Hair Restoration Results Posted by Patients
Oh yeah, Dr. Shapiro is renowned for his hairlines. Dr. Cooley is great as well, definitely consult with both! -
Dr. Cooley and Shapiro are both excellent choices. I think they would easily be able to refine this result. I will say this, it honestly isn’t that bad, a little too straight. But it would be easy to fix. Feel free to submit consultations using our link below: https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/hair-transplant-surgeons.asp

smp Got my first SMP session last Tuesday
hairthere replied to justgotsmpd's topic in Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)
Denver touched on a very good point here regarding hairline design. A good result means the practitioner should have solid technique, proper, SMP-specific tools and training, but also understand the basic principles of hairline design. If all three aren't in play then you are looking at a poor result. I was not a tattoo artist. My background was actually in publishing and at one point I was even offered the moderator position on this forum. I was just a hair loss sufferer who had a botched hair transplant. I then found this forum and educated myself and went on to have several transplants -
Hi folks, I just wanted to share my recent experience following an FUT procedure with Dr Jerry Cooley yesterday. I apologise if this post is long and detailed but I took a lot of value from all the various posters and wanted to give the same back. Days leading to the procedure I had been speaking to Cooley’s clinic in September and had various conversations with Lollie as well as telephonic conversation with Dr Cooley himself. After speaking to them both I kind of knew that this was the clinic I wanted to go with. I paid a deposit at the end of October for a 4000 FUT procedure. During -
Dr. Cooley really aims to recreate the natural hairline you used to have .. looks absolutely amazing! -
Sorry if this has already been discussed. I am interested in FUT transplants because I have very long hair that I don’t want to shave. The less hair I have to shave the better. What are people’s opinions on the best FUT doctors? I live local to Dr. Cooley and love his work, but I don’t want to choose someone because of location. Also, are there overseas doctors who are skilled at FUT that are a little less expensive? Thanks.

Who are the Best FUT Doctors?
lamar_lamont replied to lamar_lamont's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Just checked out bloxham’s work and I’m amazed. Same price as dr. Cooley, but I have to take into account the flight and stay. My decision just got a bit more difficult lol. -
Dr. Cooley, Panine, Konior, Shapiro in Minnesota to name a few. Feel free to look at our recommendations and set up a free consultation. https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/hair-transplant-surgeons.asp?sr=HRN-MOB

New to this Site. Looking to HT in the next 12 months
True replied to smurf's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Look up Joe Tillman's list of recommended doctors. Dr. Cooley and Dr. Kornier are on Joe Tillman's list. -

@firstFUT Thank you for your write up and continual updates. I've seen many of Cooley patients as of recent post positive write ups and then disappear. I guess it's nice to know their experience was great, however pictures and ongoing progress reports does a lot for the community and prospective customers seeking reassurance when deciding if this Dr. is the right Dr. or to choose another surgeon. -
Hi Y'all, first time post long time lurker. Narrowing down docs is tough. One doc I keep coming back to is Dr. Cooley. He has good results and been in the game for a long time. I've seen solid results, such as Merlin and GrowingHair's transplants but also results that don't add up like the one from a uklad81. I also notice numerous posters speaking highly of him in various posts, but leave out photos or don't continue their updates. Sad, I wish everyone would continue to update their progress if they start but understand life sometimes intervenes. Does Cooley do all the implants, or leave it t

firstFUT replied to babakabo's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Hi, I had surgery with Dr. Cooley 6/10/20 and would highly recommend him. He was a good fit for me for several reasons, but one important reason was that he is personally involved in most of the surgery and his techs are very experienced. His lead tech has been with him for well over 10 years and she and Dr. Cooley work in concert for most of the procedure. A second tech also helped implanting grafts at one point and she has also been with him for well over 10 years. I think if you choose a surgeon who you trust (I also wanted one who had a fairly high level of -

Melvin-Moderator replied to babakabo's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
This whole tech placing the grafts is not even an issue. I don't know why it's coming up now. One poorly-educated member came here and started complaining about techs placing the grafts, when this has been standard practice for some of the worlds best clinics for decades. I suggest you join me tomorrow when I discuss this in detail with Dr. Lindsey, a well respected and highly-esteemed physician. As for Cooley, he's as elite as they come check out @HTREGRETS a guy who came here wishing he never had a hair transplant, and left with some of the best results I've seen on a repair patient. I -

babakabo replied to babakabo's topic in Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews
Thank you, John. I assume Dr Cooley makes the incisions for the grafts and the techs place the grafts? Is he there the entire time? I was looking at at this board's favorites and it seems Dr Konior does quality work, but most report his prices are on a whole other level as well as his wait list. Dr. Bloxham has some nice results too, but Cooley is closest to me as I live in GA. They say don't choose a surgeon based on location, but Cooley may be an exception? Also, I am keeping a close eye on @firstFUT results, hoping they are great! -
Dr. Konior and Nadami definitely superior in extraction of grafts. Diep yields generally favorable results per YT. There are a couple of unsatisfied clients on the forums in recent memory, about 2 or 3. But there are a lot of people happy with Diep on these forums. You should also consider H&W, SMG, Rahal, Cooley, Gabel and etc. I would consult with several doctors and go with the clinic you feel most comfortable with. Also, please find a clinic who have good ethics and look at your future hair loss. Too many clinics are simply wanting to sell you more grafts at the expense of your li -
Check out Dr. Panine in Chicago, he's definitely worth consulting. You can also check out Dr. Cooley in North Carolina, he's just a short plane trip.

Sounds like a bunch of unsubstantiated drivel from Cooley. Does he have independent lab tests to support his claim about different brands of Finasteride? 5mg Proscar cut into quarters is "cheaper," not "better," than 1mg Finasteride. I'm willing to bet Dr. Konior would prescribe the 5mg if you asked him. Also, c'mon, man. If you can afford to get an FUE procedure with Konior, just do that. He's probably the best in the world and that's what he recommended for you.
