Regular Member ihatebosely21 Posted January 4, 2012 Regular Member Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) hello, Today at 7am 1/4/2012 i will be getting a 1600 FUT done by Dr. Rahal, he will fix my hairline and hopefully make Bosely scar less noticeable by closing it off with the Tricho procedure. He stated that i may need future hairtranplants as i am only 21 yrs old. I made the mistake of choosing bosely and i Strongly recommend that NO ONE EVER CHOOSES Bosely for a hair transplant. Dr. Rahal cannot promise me that the scar will be better or worse since it is not of his doing, he has made me fully aware of this. I will post pictures up as soon as my procedure is over. I wish i would have seen this forum earlier, i was just young and desperate to get back my hairline and Bosely Lied to me...Hopefully Dr. Rahal can correct this Edited January 4, 2012 by ihatebosely21
Senior Member StaggerLee123 Posted January 4, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 4, 2012 Good luck dude you are in very competent hands with Dr. Rahal. I had two procedures done with sub par clinics so I kind of know how you feel. It is key to have a long term plan as you are a young guy and I'm glad Rahal has discussed this with you. Best of luck, you are in for an improvement for sure.
Senior Member orlhair1 Posted January 4, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 4, 2012 Good luck........you are in great hands with Dr. Rahal. Sorry you had to experience Bosley, but thanks for posting about it so others might avoid making the same mistake. Keep us posted.

Senior Member HARIRI Posted January 4, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 4, 2012 Oh man, you are another repair patient. Welcome to the club. I repaired my hairline with 2500 grafts by Dr. Rahal which I ended with a 53% density. That crap old doc knocked almost all of my hairs that I managed to keep. Although im happy i was repaired but so sad of the 2000 grafts i never benifit from or maybe benefited 25% of it because of the bad transplant and the 1cm wide scar at the back. Dr. Rahal is great, he really knows a lot about repairs and know well how to draw a future strategy. I just wonder, do you need 1600 grafts only or thats whats available from your donor? Because it seems a quite low number.

Regular Member ihatebosely21 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Regular Member Posted January 6, 2012 i will put the pictures of the day before surgery once mike from dr rahal sends them to me
Regular Member ihatebosely21 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Regular Member Posted January 16, 2012 here are my pictures the day before my pocedure these are the results of Bosely in boston with Dr calder a year and 3 weeks later and 6,500 total in 9,451 paid after interest and this is what Bosely gave for results.. Really sad and embarrassing Don't ever make the mistake i did and trust Bosley or any other corporate hair chain company in doing your hair they don't care about you all they care about is their bank account. Bosley never admitted they did a bad job, they just ignored that and kept saying you just need another procedure, also a few months after the procedure they sent me a procedure offering me a job, i dont want a job that ruins people's lives.
Regular Member ihatebosely21 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Regular Member Posted January 16, 2012 a total of 2089 grafts with Dr. Rahal By FUT with Tricho closure 8,000 Canadian dollars total
Senior Member mattj Posted January 16, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 16, 2012 It looks like your scar will be greatly improved, and your hairline will be very dense. Your hair characteristics are very favourable. Thanks for the updates. I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.

Senior Member StaggerLee123 Posted January 16, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 16, 2012 You are in much better shape than most repair patients. You will end up with one scar in back instead of multi scars stacked and I bet you are going to be very happy after all is said and done. Congrats again I'm glad Rahal sorted you out.

Regular Member ihatebosely21 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Regular Member Posted January 19, 2012 i just got my sutures removed, tell me if you can find the scar ..looks good hard to see, Dr. Rahal does marvelous work, he fixed Bosely scar and made one that is not visible with the tricho procedure but this is only two weeks after the procedure ..now im using Rogaine
Senior Member StaggerLee123 Posted January 19, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 19, 2012 Congrats, that's amazing. Your hair must grow fast as it looks like it grew a lot in 2 weeks..
Senior Member TakingThePlunge Posted January 19, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 19, 2012 ihatebosely21, That is truly unreal! Your scar is invisible only two weeks post-op AND it's a repair case.

Senior Member chrisdav Posted January 19, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 19, 2012 I think you will have a good result with Dr Rahal. He is one of the very best but keep us all informed of your progress ihatebosely21. 2 poor unsatisfactory hair transplants performed in the UK. Based on vast research and meeting patients, I travelled to see Dr Feller in New York to get repaired.
Senior Member SugarHighs Posted January 19, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 19, 2012 Looking good, killer. Super happy for you, and hope for great growth up front too.
