Senior Member Bucksred Posted January 12, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 12, 2012 Hi, After reading forms like this I decided to not go ahead with my procedure in the UK. Im going to Washington in March and using Dr W. Lindsey. Yes I'm nervous I have a widows peek hairline and have hated it for years and the it's estimated 1200 to 1500 is the likely number to be used. I'm worried about the scar left at the back, but also excited as well. At this point in time I'm glad I researched further and looked at forums like this.
Senior Member Ukresponder Posted January 12, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 12, 2012 Hi Bucksred, Totally normal feelings, I shat myself about 3 times before I got my first strip session done! Once its over its pure relief but you got to wait it out around month 3-4 you start sprouting at a quick rate. Your in safe hands with Dr Lindsey he's a plastic surgeon as well and he will give you a great scar if you know what I mean. Take confidence in the fact you did the right thing avoided the uk and chose a top surgeon. look forward to yor results uk R :)2250 Strip Dr Feller :)1900 Strip Dr Feller ----------------------------------- 2 Great HT's & Experiences -----------------------------------
Senior Member irishsailor Posted January 12, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 12, 2012 Congrats with going with Dr lindsay, he's posts alot of his work on here and it's impressive. Like UKResponder said he is a plastic surgeon as well, i think you will be hard pushed to find another doc that could match the scar he will give you Best of luck with your procedure Hair Transplant Dr Feller Oct 2011 Hair Transplant Dr Lorenzo June 2014

The first is 1 year out from 3500, the second is 1 month out from 3900. I'll see you in March. Dr. Lindsey McLean VA William H.

Senior Member Bucksred Posted January 13, 2012 Author Senior Member Posted January 13, 2012 Flawless, fantastic work (roll on March). I'm glad I researched the forum's on here, look forward to coming to America and meeting you. Spex speaks very highly of you.
Senior Member chrisdav Posted January 13, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 13, 2012 That is fantastic Dr Lindsey, who needs fue with scarring like that 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 MrJobi Posted January 14, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 14, 2012 After four procedures, I can tell you it is the BEST decision I ever made. Post op is a "pain in the butt", but then it is only a matter of time until your hairloss becomes a thing of the past. It is a GREAT feeling! Good luck!!

Senior Member Bucksred Posted January 21, 2012 Author Senior Member Posted January 21, 2012 Thanks again for all the replies, it's amazing how much interest people have in HT. I can only say thanks again for those who have helped me and have been through some tough times, but find time to help others, point them in the right direction, I'm convinced lots of blokes study this forum but don't register so your doing a great job.
