Senior Member Cant decide Posted November 17, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 17, 2010 Here are my opinions. Please dont anyone attack me if they disagree Feller: Good overall balance. I cant say one thing stands out over another. One of the best at FUE. Bernstein: Knows the science of HT better than almost anyone. Very natural hairlines but is extermely conservative as far as how many grafts he plants in one session. True and Dorin: Great thin scars and good hairlines. In my opinion, if you need over 4500 grfats, I would think none of these guys would be optimal for you. They all have certainly done procedures over 4500 but that is not the rotuine for them. If you need under 3500, than any of these guys would be a good choice. Good luck.

Senior Member paris_caine Posted November 17, 2010 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 17, 2010 if i wanted more than 4500, who would u recommed in new york? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Cant decide Posted November 17, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 17, 2010 Honestly, if I were doing a session over 4500 (Which I have done), I would go to Hasson and Wong or Rahal period. Others may have a different opinion on it. Thats not to say that the surgeons in NY cant do it, but I dont see it as their strength. Also remember that most people cant get 4500 or more in one pass anyway due to density/laxity but these docs are better than most at extracting the highest number possible in one sitting. It may not just come down to surgeon skill but also some docs just dont feel such large sessions are the best route or they are not set up for it. Why do you feel you need to stay in NY anyway. I am from CT and drove to Ottawa for my consultation and procedure to get what I wanted. I was told by one recommended surgeon in the US that I would be lucky to get 3500 in one sitting. Dr. Rahal pulled 5200 and could of gotton more but I made him stop at 5200 due to financial reasons By the way, my scar 5 weeks post op is healing very well with no issues.

Senior Member Thehairupthere Posted November 17, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 17, 2010 Doctors in the United States are perfectly capable of producing 4500 grafts or higher. The reason why there may not be many cases, is because it's a very large size case and most people do not need that many in one shot. There also could be limitations like skin elasticity and overall trauma to the scalp if too much is done. This could lead to a thicker scar as well as increased shock loss. Once again doctors in the U.S and in New York are more than capable of having 4500 grafts or more, it's just that the majority of the population do not need that much done in one go. I am a consultant for Dr. True and Dr. Dorin. These opinions are my own. Dr. Robert True and Dr. Robert Dorin are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member omy Posted November 19, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 19, 2010 Try to schedule a few in person consults if possible . If in Manhattan you could see Drs True and Dorin plus Bernstien . Dr.Feller is close to them as well . I can say that True and Dorin are very skilled and are worth a visit .
