Regular Member makem32 Posted April 20, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Hey guys just want to get some opinions of if given the following two opitons what guys would go I am looking at surgery at the end of this year/start of next year. I am coming up 33 my loss is fairly stable and been on propecia for 6 months. My 2 main choices are Dr Rahal via strip or Dr Feriduin via FUE I am been quoted around 2000 to re-enforce my hairline and temple recession. Any opinions welcome. Thanks Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Jotronic Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Did either talk to you about temple point reconstruction as it looks like your temple points are eroded, at least your left side does anyway. Since most men recede more on the right side I can assume that the right side is just as receded if not worse. The Truth is in The Results Dr. Victor Hasson and Dr. Jerry Wong are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Makem, Have you consulted with either surgeon? In many instances, certain patients are better candidates for FUT (compared to FUE), and this is probably something to "figure out" before scheduling any sort of procedure. Having said that, you've selected two of the most talented hair restoration physicians practicing today, and I don't think you could go wrong either way. For a 2,000 graft procedure, my gut reaction is to recommend FUT, but Dr. Feriduni is such a talented FUE practitioner that an excellent 2,000 graft transformation (via FUE) is a very realistic possibility. Altogether, I would probably try to consult with several physicians (including Rahal and Feriduni) and obtain a strong grasp on what your physiology will allow and which procedure will best suit your needs. Please let me know if you need any assistance!

Senior Member chrisdav Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Consult with them both, and a few others as well. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member RCWest Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 If you want density, Dr. Rahal is hard to beat. Dr. Feriduni is great also, but Dr. Rahal seems to be able to pack them closer. Plus most of his patients seem to grow faster and earlier for some reason. Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?

Senior Member HARIRI Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Dr. Rahal to me is way superior than Feriduni. He is better also in FUE. He has an impressive way dense of dense packing grafts to create better illusion. Good luck in your choice.

Senior Member NEWHAIRPLEASE Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 I also have to echo the above post in favor of Dr Rabal. Also, just like Jo said I would certainly get those temple points addressed. Newhairplease!!

Senior Member Dutch Posted April 20, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted April 20, 2012 Both top surgeons. Go to Dr. Feriduni for a consultation since its easy to get to him & contact Dr. Rahal's office for an online consultation. I'm definitely considering both for the future for FUE http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=2329 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
