Phillym16 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Hello all .... I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving. I recently had a transplant at Bosley in Philadelphia and I must say, after reading many of the reviews on this site I'm a little worried on how this is going to turn out. Has anyone here had a procedure completed with Bosley and had good results? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Rachmunas4life Posted November 27, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 27, 2010 So far it looks like very clean work to my eyes and I've been on this forum for over 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jg1656 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I would also like to here any feedback on him. Signed up for surgery Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted November 30, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 30, 2010 Jg, You seem a bit concerned about your upcoming procedure. If you're having any doubts, I highly recommend temporarily postponing, and performing some research on these forums. I think many community members will tell you that rushing into a hair transplant procedure can create some undesired consequences. Have you reviewed our recommended hair transplant physicians? We recommend some excellent physicians in the PA, NJ, NY area. Edit: I'm a bit confused; did you already undergo surgery with this physician, or are you booked for surgery this upcoming Friday?

jg1656 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Thank you, I am supposed to go this Friday. I have not undergone any surgery yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillym16 Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hey Future...Sorry for the confusion but it looks like JG selected the same Icon as me. I had surgery with Dr. Cornwell about 2 weeks ago now. Does anyone have any additional information on him? I would think that all MD's utilize the same basic technique when performing a transplant. Are there any early signs/issues I should be looking for that would lead me to believe that mine was not done correctly? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted December 7, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 7, 2010 Philly and Jg, I apologize! Apparently, you both have the same avatar (icon) and I thought you were the same poster; my mistake. Jg, Again, if you still don't feel 100% confident, informed, and ready for the procedure, it could be a good idea to take a step back, spend a good amount of time asking questions and searching our forums, and possibly consult with a few other hair restoration physicians before committing to a procedure. Please, let me know if you have any additional questions. Philly, Although the hair transplant procedure is fairly standardized, each surgeon definitely adds his or her own 'style' to the procedure, and no two doctors operate in an identical fashion. At this point in time, it would probably a bit difficult to tell how the procedure itself went, but you could definitely inspect the implanted area to make sure the density is acceptable and also follow all the post-operative instructions carefully (to maximize the result). Additionally, you may want to consider adding photographs to your social profile or a hair loss weblog and allowing the community to review the images and give you helpful feed back. I hope this helps; let me know if there is anything I can do to assist.

jg1656 Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Hey I was just curious if there was any updates to how your surgery with DR Cornwell has turned out now that it has been a couple of months. Thanks so much for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shooter13 Posted December 2, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted December 2, 2011 So Phillym16, how were your results from Dr. Cornwell? Were you satisfied? I just had my procedure with him last Friday. He seemed to know what he was doing, and has a pretty good track record, medically speaking, and over 4 years of hair transplant experience under his belt.

LadyM Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Bosley in Philly is having a promo. Have to complete the procedure by end Feb. I feel a bit rushed to make a decision. Now that a few weeks have passed, how do you feel about your results and your experience at Bosley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aman84 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Hey Phillym16 would you reccomend Dr. Cornwell? I'm planning to have a procedure with him as well. How long has it been since you had it and are you satisfied with the results. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member shooter13 Posted January 20, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted January 20, 2012 LadyM, I personally have had a great experience with Bosley as i have had multiple procedures with them. Bosley gets some negative remarks a lot on these forums, and rightfully so in some instances, but me personally, I am happy. Yes, you are going to a "chain" instead of a smaller, localized office, and their doctors may switch locations and not specifically be at your particular office for 25 years, but they are reputable, highly experienced doctors. As for My results, I'm not yet 2 months post-procedure so its too soon to see growth, but for some reason my head is in better shape now than any of my prior procedures. I can only hope and expect excellent results again. And as for Dr. Cornwell, he seems to be a very smart dude with experience and credentials to back it up, and who was able to answer all of my questions pre and post-op. he also has a great "bedside manner." Good luck, I am confident you are in good hands, and if they are offering a promo, jump at it, as Bosley is DEFINITELY one of the more expensive options out there today. But how else are they going to pay for those Saturday morning infomercials??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyM Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Shooter13. Thanks so much for the feed back. I'm so happy for you and I'm sure your results will be great. I went to Bosley 6 years ago and the price was so out of reach. Six years later they offer me a price that is well within reach. Just felt a bit rushed. And I never meet any doctors. In fact, I thought I'd have the procedure in Parsippany Nj. Anyway, I'll see a local doc tonight to have something to compare to. So far, I like the small office feel, but well see...

Regular Member shooter13 Posted January 20, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted January 20, 2012 Definitely seek a consultation with whoever you choose and make sure you ask any and all questions that you can think of. That way you can make the best informed decision possible. Best of luck to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
