Hi All, **This is a cross-post with Hairlosstalk.com, I'm not familiar with either forum so I wasn't sure where would be best to put it** Finally took the plunge about 2 weeks ago after lots of research and a 6 month Covid delay. I had a trouble finding similar cases to mine, so I thought it would be helpful for folks in the future if I made a timeline. This way I can also force myself to keep better track as well. I'll follow this post up with a couple of others, giving a rough timeline and my thoughts on the process at each stage.- Previous Hairline: My family has a history of prom -
Am I a bad hair transplant candidate?
Melvin-Moderator replied to BeadHead's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Dr. Konior is largely referred to as one of the best surgeons in the world. That said, for your case, you’d be better served with a clinic that specializes in megasession FUTs. I would also consult with Dr. Hasson and Wong. Take a look at Dr. Shapiro as well. My advice is submit several consultations with as many as possible. Feel free to submit your pictures via the link below https://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/Consult-a-Physician/hair-transplant-surgeons.asp?sr=HRN-MOB -
Hello Everyone, I have been following threads in here and while they are helpful, I thought to start my own thread and share my HT journey with you guys. Background : I am 30 years old. I do have family history of hair loss from my father side - particularly on front - but not on crown and middle/ top scalp. My hair colour is blonde, check my hair pics below. Research : I have learned about FUT and FUE on the internet and interactions with HT patients. Aside from price and surgical method, the primary difference between FUE and FUT seems to be - there is higher rate of follice -
In fact, looking at your photos, your advanced loss is best suited for Dr. Wong. Also, it’s not uncommon for clinics to overestimate the number of grafts you will require whole consulting with you virtually. The number is likely overstated, and the reasons for that are because they could only determine the amount of grafts you will really need once they analyze your hair characteristics in your donor which is very important. The thickness and the size of your donor will be a great determining factor, so if they overquote you and it turns out you need less grafts, it is easier to have you expec -
Hey crazy to see number of Torontonians popping up on here all of a sudden. If you listen to anything I say, then please make sure you run from dr. Cory Torgerson. He is NOT a hair transplant doctor. He is a general cosmetic surgeon, who invested in an artaras robot and decided to add HTs in his offerings. From a thread I followed he doesn’t perform any of the surgery, he has two techs do the entire thing, and beyond that he doesnt have any real results to show for it. I am not even entirely familiar with the other names you mentioned either. I’ve heard of seager and I’ve seen some d

Hair transplant suggestions and clinics in Toronto
deitel130 replied to n58's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
A lot of the surgeons you have listed in Canada do not exclusively perform hair transplants with the exception of Dr. Gupta, Dr Coterill, Dr. Huber and H&W in Vancouver. That is not to say the others are not good. There is a member who recently posted having excellent results with Dr. Gupta. Hasson and Wong are recommended on this site and you will see a lot of results on the forums from other patients. You will see the same on the European forums (pages and pages of results from H&W patients). The other doctor recommended in Canada is Dr. Rahal but he only performs FUE and if you are -
I received my hair transplant from Dr. Wong at the Hasson and Wong clinic in Vancouver. This is not my first hair transplant. I had an operation done by Dr. Arocha at Arocha Hair Restoration in Houston, Texas for 2,500 grafts. The transplant with Dr. Arocha was done four years prior to the one performed by Dr. Wong. Dr. Wong and the clinic were very professional, but also personal and accommodating. My experience was fantastic from beginning to end and this is the only clinic I ever intend on returning to. I am extremely happy with the results. The scar is smaller and the placement o -
Hair transplant suggestions and clinics in Toronto
deeznuts replied to n58's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
I'm mostly done. My situation is that I'm a Norwood 2 at age 30. My hairline would actually be a lot better if this year wasn't so stressful for me. WFH really messed with my sleep schedule and brought out the worst of the procrastination + catch up habits I have lol. I don't have a ton of hair loss though my hairline is maybe a bit higher than I would like, my temples are fairly recessed and I wanted to try nice hairstyles that expose my hair line. I didn't really look at too many docs because I knew I was looking for top tier results so I'm willing to pay a premium for it. That na -
Thanks for arranging this, Melvin. Here is a question... Many with advanced Norwood, are concerned with maximizing lifetime donor grafts; it is this question on which many are trying to gain clarity. I was wondering if you have a stance on this topic of whether FUE alone could harvest the same amount of grafts in a lifetime versus doing FUT or combining FUT and FUE over the course of more than one surgery? I have heard some surgeons say that with advanced hair loss, in order to harvest the most grafts in a lifetime, it is best to start with FUT and later do FUE. -
2,500 grafts Hasson & Wong - Dr. Wong
deitel130 replied to cake282282's topic in Hair Restoration Results Posted by Patients
This is an amazing result. Your hair looked pretty good before this procedure. Was it just to add more density? Do you have top down pre-op pics? I recently had a procedure from Dr. Wong myself and was really impressed with the entire experience. -

Fantastic results, congrats! No surprise it's from Dr. Wong. -
Hasson & Wong are Asian too... Or at least the Wong in H & W is Asian. From Vancouver which is literally 90% Asian. Though from what I gather, they get their clients from everywhere. Idk if it's just the lighting but I can see your scalp pretty easily. I'm not all that sure your donor has the grafts Dr. Diep is claiming. If I had to guess... I'd say your density is below average there... Though I'm sure someone with more experience can say better Also Dr. Diep saying he's better than H&W? Bold claim to say the least

Hasson and Wong in North America, I’ve heard good things about Dr. Bicer, we have Yaman on our recommendations. In my opinion, you should shoot for FUT first, which would be hasson and wong. If you absolutely cannot get FUT your second best option is Eugenix in my opinion. -
I think the whole DHI has been hyped up to the point of being a selling point. Using forceps has been around for decades. Some of the best clinics use this technique, hasson and wong does for example. But again, dissecting a video, it’s hard to say these techniques are revolutionary. But you don’t have to reinvent the wheel to get good results, which is what I’ve been saying, and even Dr. Zarev said what I said earlier in this thread, which is a good sign. Another surgeon may have played on the “god” status he’s been receiving, instead of being truthful. Glad to see he told the trut

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 -
I had three appointments pushed back for covid, then went to doc in USA. I think you have to quarantine in Canada for two weeks B4 you can get out. Its a bitch. I met with Dr. Wong in person in late 2018, made appointment, then covid hit and screwed up my plans. I would wait for the dang vaccine. The prime minister wont open Canada until then I believe. It sucks but that's the way it is. I would plan your visit for late summer/Fall. You could do virtual consult then get surgery. Until the vaccine is distributed nothing on this planet will be normal. After that it may still be a mess. -
I have just recently had 3500+ grafts via FUT by Dr. Wong. This was my second surgery my first was also about 3500 in the frontal half of scalp about 10 years ago by a different Doctor and i've been on Finasteride for the last decade. My thinning is mostly diffused. I was asked to perform scalp Laxity exercises by Dr. Wong and by doing so I was able to get additional grafts with a second surgery. Here are the details. Got to the clinic early morning, took pics and got changed. Dr. Wong then marked the hairline and area where thinning is. He then shaved the recipient area as he was go

If money were no issue, what would be your current top 5 FUE surgeons in North America? I'm currently between Dr. Konior and Hasson & Wong, but I am looking for 3-5 other doctors that I should contact for a consultation. Preferably, those who are willing and able to go semi-aggressive for an FUE procedure (between 3,000-5,000 grafts for dense hairline and restored crown). -
Hi everyone! I have decided to get my hair transplant at Dr Bisanga’s clinic in Bruxelles because of this forum so I feel like I should start a thread and share the results and progress with you all. I’m 29 years old and started losing my hair when I was 22-23, in my family literally everybody has a head full of hair (and I did too) except my cousin (24) and I. Used to take minoxidil and propecia then stopped cause I was thinking “I’ll eventually get a HT so I’ll restart when I’m again at point 0”, when I stopped taking it I noticed I started losing even more hair. -
2500 FUE Dr. Jerry Wong

Hey hair transplant bros, gals and non-binary friends. Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and cheers! I apologize for taking so damn long to update. Past few months have been very busy. sadly, I am not where I hoped to be at this point re: hair growth. However, I will continue to be patient and remain optimistic. (I am, admittedly, very nervous at this point.) Lots of new hairs popping up, though, and lots of new zits! Weird to be happy about pimples on my head, but that is where we’re at hahaha. Even if I have a poor yield, I gotta say, I am very happy with how dr -
3000 grafts FUE by Dr.Hasson
deitel130 replied to Ben123's topic in Hair Restoration Results Posted by Patients
Dr. Wong mentioned that if Finasteride was working not to take Minoxidil as it causes loss of collagen. I was using both but still debating whether to restart minoxidil post surgery. I used it many years prior to starting Finasteride but found it wasn't working for me. I had recently re-started it again in combination with the Finasteride to see if it would help my crown. I had stopped for surgery. Still debating whether to start or not. But for some it works really well and it would make sense to keep using it especially if they experience sides with Finasteride. -
Hello all, I finally bit the bullet. To give everyone a rundown I’m 39 years old this year. I live out of Austin, TX but I’m from closer to the Houston area. I started thinning when I was 18 and I tried everything to slow down the process, admittedly without a lot of knowledge back then. This was 1998 and I didn’t know much about propecia or minoxidil. I tried shampoos and all kinds of gimmicks. I did try propecia and minoxidil liquid but because I didn’t know enough about it and didn’t see immediate results I just stopped and got on with my life. It all started in my crown and then -
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 -

This Vancouver based patient in his late 20’s approached Hasson and Wong in hopes of restoring density to his hairline. He first began to lose his hair in his mid-20’s characterized by thinning of the temples along with some hairline recession. Upon review of this patient’s case, Dr. Wong determined he would be a good candidate for the procedure and reconstruction of the temple points would also enhance the cosmetic impact of the result. During the course of the one-day FUE procedure, Dr. Wong and his staff successfully transplanted 1300 grafts to restore a slightly lower and much stronger hai -
@H & W Doug this is a great FUE result. You guys have some excellent FUE examples lately with very good yield. Does Dr. Hasson also use implanter pens? I recently saw a video on Youtube where Dr. Wong was talking about the use of implanter pens and how as a result the yield has gone up.
