Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted November 28, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 28, 2011 Excellent work Dr Charles..does this patient have any plans for crown work? Its looks like in his third picture he is starting to have some loss there as well. Newhairplease!!

Senior Member Spanker Posted November 28, 2011 Senior Member Posted November 28, 2011 I would have expected it to be much more dense for 2 sessions and over 3000 grafts. Sorry to say. I think we can get into a bad habbit of praising all work because we like the doctor. If we say everything is excellent, how is a newbie going to know the difference between average and excellent?

Spanker I think the work is excellent..I think a lot of grafts went to the temple points so from what I can tell between the temple points and the hairline, I would call it a success..LikeI said though, looks like the patients crown is starting to thin a bit though.

Regular Member eddiemunster Posted November 28, 2011 Regular Member Posted November 28, 2011 agree with Spanker. While the work looks refined, I would expect more out of 3300 grafts in the frontal third.
Regular Member Dr. Glenn Charles Posted November 29, 2011 Author Regular Member Posted November 29, 2011 I agree with both of you. These results are good, but I have had better and was also hoping it would of had more density. I think it is important for the doctors to show all types of results. Patients who are considering hair transplantation should know there is a range of results. I do not think it is a good idea to only show those cases that are unbelievable. It may lead to false expectations. Dr. Glenn Charles is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians
Regular Member eddiemunster Posted November 29, 2011 Regular Member Posted November 29, 2011 that's a great response, Dr. Charles - it's honest, reasonable and, in my opinion, it will resonate well with the community. It's unfortunate that some doctors feel the need to respond aggressively to any critiques.
