Regular Member RockZ Posted January 27, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted January 27, 2011 Well folks, after quite a bit of research, deliberation and correspondence, I decided to take the plunge today and confirmed myself for a FUE surgery in May at SMG with Dr. Ron Shapiro for work on my hairline (1200 - 1800 grafts). I'll go into my reasoning in further detail at a late time perhaps. All in all, I am simultaneously relieved, excited, and fairly nervous. I took a few weeks off of work (corporate office setting) which in and of itself was somewhat difficult so hopefully that gives me ample recovery time otherwise I'm just going to have to be a bada** and power through it! I also am scheduled to observe a FUE case next month as well at the office. The members and administrators and this entire forum in general have been extraordinarily helpful. I am certainly very grateful this invaluable resource is out here. I'll keep everyone posted very closely with my progress as well.

Senior Member HARIRI Posted January 28, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted January 28, 2011 You are in a super safe hands. FUE isnt new with SMG, they have been practicing it long time.Especially you choosed to do it with the best surgeon there, Dr Ron Shapiro. Many may be against the thought of having FUE, but if you have good donor, good money, good hair and not so thinning and very consious a lot how would you look like if your head is shaved, then FUE is the answer. Good luck and congrats for the good decision you made.
