This doc is very critical of FUE: FUT vs FUE Will be interesting to hear Dr Bhatti's thoughts on the claims made in his presentation to the ISHS.

Senior Member lorenzo Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 Who really cares? Is it really the end of the world that a moderator was also working for Dr Feller? If it's such a big deal, then why don't we take a close look at the U.S. Presidential candidates. They can't run unless they have enough money. Where do they get the money? Donations from persons and Companies of interest. But yeah, they don't have any conflict of interest at all. Wake up people, that's a bigger problem than Dr Blake being a moderator whilst working with Feller. I fully agree that why I feel it was inappropriate to use it as ammo. Low blow in my opinion.

Its funny too that Gunther goes back in forth, one minute he's insulted by Dr. Feller's comments regarding learning disabilities, the next minute he's agreeing with him its very odd. Dr. Feller has yet to apologize to you or Dr.Bhatti for wrongfully calling you his representative, he forgets that I was the one he was speaking too when he said it, the context in which he said it completely led me to believe that you were being paid, he didn't correct me, he didn't call you a patient, I've brought it up several times in this thread and he hasn't addressed it once, he was very vociferous when Dr. Bhatti brought it up because he wasn't speaking to him when he said it, it's funny now that I bring it up not a peep. I fully agree that why I feel it was inappropriate to use it as ammo. Low blow in my opinion. Low blow, you know whats a low blow, calling a surgeons happy patient a paid representative and undermining the patient and the surgeons integrity, then being caught and having the audacity to ask for an apology from the other surgeon, that's a low blow.

Senior Member Sethticles Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 Ive never said this but it was Dr Feller himself that convinced me back in 2010 that FUE was the new GOLD standard, the idea of not having a strip scar was my ticket out of this depression. a very close mate of mine had FUT done and it failed, failed horribly, changed his life for the worse forever, he still has a the scar, he pulled me aside and made sure id promise never to have what he had done to me, but then i read more posts about this (what i thought was the brand new thing) and thanks Dr Feller for your wisdom back then, if any of you have read my blog then you'd know i struggled to save money, took me a long time, then Dr Bhatti came along and not only did I save money i scored one of the best in the world at FUE, so I thank both Dr Feller & Dr Bhatti. 5 years later FUE has grown and grown in popularity and is i think the #1 in the world now.

Senior Member mav23100gunther Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 I just find it odd that one minute you're deeply offended by Dr. Feller's comments and the next minute you're defending him. Why is it odd? Why do we have to either have to be with or against somebody? I'm just trying to be objective. At one point you also defended Dr Feller when you said you never found the "learning disability" comment offensive. Like I said previously, I'm a nobody, but am just trying to make my own informed decision. I am not on Dr Feller's side, but just as I can criticize him when I think he is wrong, I will defend him when I feel he is being treated unfairly (not that he needs that).

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted August 29, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2015 Here is a video of Dr. Villnow I completely agree with his assessment, its what i've been saying all along. The advantages of FUT is your able to harvest more grafts at one time, where as with FUE you will have to do several sessions, this to me is the truth, it's what i've seen with dozens of patients and myself as well, the difference in yield in my opinion is not significant, there is no proof to substantiate my claims or Dr. Fellers claims and that's the truth, his percentages are his opinion. So what it boils down too as a patient is personal preference, if you wear your hair short than you'll probably want to choose FUE, if you don't wear your hair short and don't care about a scar then choose FUT. All of this vilifying FUE has been uncalled for, not to mention accusing forum members of being representatives of their physicians. Seth I've got a similar situation to yours I've even mentioned my friend in this thread, he got a strip surgery back in 06 by a well known physician in Toronto, while he did achieve good growth, he now has become terrified of getting haircuts, he literally stopped going to the barber, because every time he went to the barber he was always asked about his huge scar, he's had people ask if he's had brain surgery, to a metal plate in his head, this has caused him to be so self conscious, as hair loss sufferers we are already self conscious about our hair loss, so I can't imagine going from being self conscious about my hair loss to being self conscious about my scar, to me its exchanging problems instead of getting rid of one. Now with an FUE I never worry if people are looking at my donor area or if they know I got a procedure, a wise man once said you cant put a price on peace of mind.

Senior Member Sethticles Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 HTsoon, i've often thought the same, FUT fixes one problem and opens the doors for more problems, Dr Feller said this himself back 2003 (i thought 2009) , FUE, will have less post op considerations, i thank him for his wisdom. When i saw this my interpretation was, FUE has no brain surgery scar, like my best mate, as i said, this was my ticket out of the depression, June 2013 - 3000 FUE Dr Bhatti Oct 2013 - 1000 FUE Dr Bhatti Oct 2015 - 785 FUE Dr Bhatti Dr. Bhatti's Recommendation Profile on the Hair Transplant Network My story and photos can be seen here http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/Sethticles/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member BaldingBogger Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 Dr Feller, I have no idea what happened with this behind the scenes but the below thread is one of the examples I was referencing that you termed another lie (still confused where any lies came from as they were direct quotes). As a prospective patient it was a bit alarming but to be frank & fair I have no idea what went on behind the scenes other than what was posted. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/163670-dr-feller-proposing-sue-me-my-comments-htn-my-response.html Dr feller threatened me with legal action EARLIER in this thread !! It's how this man operates. Ludicrous. I have seen those previous unhappy cases from his clinic and saw how they were handled. And he expects us to believe with his personality he is only here for the patients bests interests to Inform them the pitfalls of FUE. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Eurofue Posted August 29, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 After reding this thread in the last 24 hours this is the impression I now get from Dr Feller "FUE is brutal, nothing has changed in the last 14 years to overcome the 3 detrimental forces of torsion traction and compression only FUT can overcome these detrimental forces! Anyone else that says they can via FUE are liars! Only when these 3 detrimental forces are overcome in some way can FUE be viable, if only there was a way but sorry there isn't, the 3 detrimental forces are far to great for FUE as the technology hasn't changed since it first started, the procedure is exactly the same as it was when I made the first video "aren't I great" if only someone could create something to overcome the 3 detrimental forces of FUE they would be an instant millionaire! OH wait what's that Dr Bloxham why on earth have you kept this from me, we were supposed to be partners I've just spent every minute of the last few weeks slating FUE on this thread entitled "FUT is more popular than FUE" as there are 3 detrimental forces that need to be overcome you see!!! And now you have invented such a device that gives FUT level yield from a modified FUE punch without the 3 detrimental forces that are encountered and can't be overcome by the standard FUE procedure! Oh wow this is exiting if only I knew earlier I may have been able to do some work for the last few weeks the queue in the reception is massive with people waiting to have their head sliced open at the back. Let's hope my hand is not as shaky on the video that I posted earlier as people will be leaving looking like pumpkins at Halloween hehehehehehehehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member newbie33 Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 Chaps, do you think any of you are too emotionally invested in one procedure or another to be objective any more? Is this why it's all boiled down to rather silly character attacks? I said it way back when in this thread, and it's not changed - this entire debate has made me less likely to have a HT of any sort. And maybe that is a good thing.

Senior Member Britanium Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 mav23100gunther - if you was referring to me its johnboy71 not johnboy75 :-) BUT I'm not a supporter of just one procedure - I'm a fan of ALL the different methods. What I said was in my case I got all stripped out first on FUT and then got maxd out on FUE. So I will be looking at BHT next (beard) despite the expected low yield - I fully understand that. Choice is always good - as long as people are educated in the pros and cons of each procedure then great. FUT has left me with a scar but I have since had it revised and its no longer a issue for me. However my FUE has also left me with noticeable scars and theres nothing I can do to camouflage that IF shaved down (which I never do) And I actually had good yield for both FUT and FUE. So yes I have both types of scars on the back of my head - do I care? no as I never have it short and both scars are covered by my normal hair length. I'm just happy to get my hair back everywhere else! 13000 grafts taken approx. in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted August 29, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 29, 2015 Newbie - please don't let this thread put you off having a hair transplant. Both procedures have their pros and cons. Now your educated on both you can decide which suits you better. There are so many decent Drs out there doing some fantastic work ! we see the results on this forum all the time. And yes we see the occasional poor results also. Decent Drs will stand by there results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
