Senior Member Speegs Posted May 23, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 23, 2009 I'd like to see any additional patient photos other than those he has provided, seems to be impressive hairline work done by the guy and probably the most reasonable graft price for his practice in all of the USA. I would like to hear from those here that have been patients of his and see what he did for them. Hair loss patient and transplant veteran. Once a Norwood 3A. Received 2,700 grafts with coalition doctor on 8/13/2010 Received 2,380 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 9/30/2011 Received 1,820 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 7/28/2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HairDew Posted May 23, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 23, 2009 I consider Dr. Alexander as one of the best in the business. Have you searched forums? Here are few links with results that I found in about 1 min . http://hair-restoration-info.c...66060861/m/972102571 http://hair-restoration-info.c...21087683/m/474102941 http://hair-restoration-info.c...1087683/m/6171050573 http://hair-restoration-info.c...1087683/m/8501098582 http://hair-restoration-info.c...951087382#5951087382 But if you search (use advanced search and select only forums for Patiens results and Doctors Presented results) and you will find tons of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member pink Posted May 25, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted May 25, 2009 hi, even i am thinking of considering this doctor. How good is he on Asian / Indian? One concern is that i haven't seen much of 3000+ g by this doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member osidekid Posted May 27, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 Hi Speegs, My experience with Dr. A was the best and has been life-changing for me. My results are amazing and friends that knew I got it done have actually forgotten at times that I did the procedure, and their comment is that it is so natural that they have just gotten use to the change. I will try to update my blog and post soon with some new pics. Best, osidekid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member flyby Posted May 27, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 Hi Skeegs, I'm right there with osidekid. Went to Dr. A and I'm extremely happy with the results. Just spent 3 days poolside in Vegas and didn't put a hat on once :-). I've never told a soul I've had something done and no one's ever even asked (or stared at my head :-) so that speaks volumes itself about how natural the hairline looks. Here's a link to some photos I posted in patient results. Best of luck to you and I would definitely highly recommend Dr. A!

Senior Member TC17 Posted May 27, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 What does Dr. Alexander charge per graft and does he require shaving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member osidekid Posted May 27, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 tc17 per graft. from my understanding, shaving not required, but makes it easier for the doctor to shave. so I told him to shave away. best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Speegs Posted May 27, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 Originally posted by TC17:What does Dr. Alexander charge per graft and does he require shaving? 4 dollars so he's definitely the best priced of the American based surgeons that do good hairlines and megasessions. I'm unclear if he compensates with a travel stipend however, getting 2500 grafts from him would be 10,000. The same amount would be 11,000 with Hasson and Wong altohugh they do pay for air travel and two nights hotel stay. Rahal is slightly cheaper (maybe 10,000 for 3,000 grafts) than Alexander but so dang far and I don;t know about travel discounts,i personally prefer Alexander's moderate aggressiveness as opposed to full fledged aggressiveness. I think Alexander's hairlines look the most age appropriate but still are aggressive enough to make a dramatic cosmetic difference without over doing it. If I go with an American doctor it will in all likelihood be Alexander. Hair loss patient and transplant veteran. Once a Norwood 3A.

Senior Member flyby Posted May 27, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 Onside. Your results look awesome. I saw your pictures before but didn't tie the two together. Looks like Dr. A only slightly shaved some of your recipient area and it looks like you had a pretty easy recovery time. TC17, from what I recall I believe Dr. A is something like $4 graft. I didn't get shaved down and had like 2700 grafts for my firts HT with Dr. A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member TC17 Posted May 27, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 So it is $4 per graft regardless of session size? I know a lot of the doctors reduce after 2,000 or so grafts. Rahal's prices are in Canadian dollars though, so when you factor in the exchange rate you actually get a nice little discount if coming from the US, in addition to a 10% (up to $1,000) travel discount. If Dr. Rahal didn't require shaving I'm 99% sure I would visit him, but I can't shave the head down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member phxind Posted May 27, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 27, 2009 Speegs, I had my procedure with Dr. A two months ago. No results to report as of now but he has proved himself over and over again in these forums. His charges are $4/graft. And he didn't require shaving in my case (I didn't have any hair in the transplanted area anyway!) I can answer any questions for you, if needed. ------------------------------------------------------------ My Hair Loss Website - Hair Transplant with Dr. Alexander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Hair of the dog Posted May 28, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted May 28, 2009 Hi Just to add my endorsement of Dr Alexander. I went with him in November last year, so about 6 months now and I am thrilled with my results so far. Like others, I would say my my scar is virtually undectable. I had existing hair but Dr Alexander was happy to work on me without shaving, I had 2600 grafts in the frontal 1/3. I travelled from the UK and Dr Alexander gave me some compenation for my flight and also paid for my hotel. I was back at work after 2 weeks and only my wife knows about my transplant. No one, family or friends has ever suspected a thing. IMO he is a first class surgeon and his results speak for themselves. Hope this helps.

Senior Member Atomic Posted May 28, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted May 28, 2009 I have seen Rahals hairlines & they do not appear natural like Dr. Alexanders. Also, Dr, Alexander's surgery produces minimal if any scarring. No shaving necessary because he only doe's one patient per day & he takes his time. Pink, Being Asian you will need to be concerned about the scar showing through. With Dr. Alexander's fairly conservative approach there is less chance of scarring than if you had a mega session of 3000 grafts plus. Just my opinion.

Regular Member pink Posted May 29, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted May 29, 2009 Atomic thanks, I will need more than 3000 i guess. May be m a NW 5 or a 6 and I am a diffused thinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
