Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted July 28, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted July 28, 2010 Bhim, While I've never heard of the Cole "Isolation Technique," I tried research this method (right now) and it appears Dr. Cole's website is down.

Senior Member TC17 Posted July 28, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted July 28, 2010 It's just Dr. Cole's name for FUE. I've heard (but I've never seen a result in person to vouch for this) that he uses relatively large punches that leave noticeable scarring in the donor area.

Regular Member pablo Posted July 28, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) I'm 4.5 months post op from 2100 grafts to restore my hairline with Dr Cole and have no noticable scarring whatsoever. I also got 800 free grafts, as I think I underestimated how far the 1300 I agreed to pay for would go. I've got a few pictures and I'm going to carry on documenting my progress, so in a month or two i'll post them Edited July 28, 2010 by pablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Sparky Posted July 28, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted July 28, 2010 Dr Cole uses a 1mm punch which I think is too big, but he does do very good hairlines.

BTW, i am glad that you are happy with your experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member pablo Posted August 3, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted August 3, 2010 Thanks man, I'm happy so far anyway coming upto 5 months. With all FUE there will be some scarring but its disguised alot better.I'm sure if I wet shaved my head you could see some evidence. I've had it shaved back and sides down to a number 2 and there was zero evidence of scarring.My hair isn't the thickest either. I'm shaving it down to a 1 tomorrow so I'll see how that turns out.
