Senior Member Shampoo Posted January 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hi I am looking for a DR who enjoys challenging cases and wants to transform a Norwood 6 to as much hair as possible In my opinion Drs. Hasson/Wong, Dr. Rahal, and Dr. Feller are up to any challenge involving the most difficult cases. Dr. Dow Stough - 1000 Grafts - 1996 Dr. Jerry Wong - 4352 Grafts - August 2012 Dr. Jerry Wong - 2708 Grafts - May 2016 Remember a hair transplant turns back the clock, but it doesn't stop the clock.

Senior Member Cant decide Posted January 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Baldtom-I know that you have consulted with a few docs. What is the consensus on your overall donor supply?I believe I read hat its limited. In my opinion, if it is less than 4500, I would not move forward with a HT. I was a NW 5/6 and my first procedure of 5229 grafts gave me a massive improvment but I still need to o back and hit the crown.Luckily, I hae plenty of grafts left. My Hairloss Web Site - Procedure #1: 5229 Grafts with Dr. Rahal Oct, 2010 Procedure #2: 2642 Grafts with Dr. Rahal Aug, 2013 7871 Grafts http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=2452 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Spanker Posted January 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2013 Do you have any more photos? From the back? Hasson and Wong is probably who I would consider if I were in your shoes. You need a doc that regularly does gigga-sessions.

Regular Member BoomerSooner Posted January 31, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted January 31, 2013 H&W has the best reputation for doing those massive sessions like that. Either one of the two doctors would be willing to take such a challenge and you couldnt go wrong with either.

Senior Member GreatPelo Posted March 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted March 9, 2013 First....you need to be clear of what your goals are....then see if you have enough donor to achieve those goals. Fore example, if you want Elvis Hair...you'll never achieve it. If you want coverage..but still with a thin look...might be doable. I'd get at least 3 opinions from respectable HT surgeons and balance the information obtained to make a smart decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
