First off stabilize the loss.

 

I have a personal bias for Gabel because he did me right, but Konior would be on the short list too.

Hair loss patient and transplant veteran. Once a Norwood 3A.

Received 2,700 grafts with coalition doctor on 8/13/2010

Received 2,380 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 9/30/2011

Received 1,820 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 7/28/2016

If I’m a NW 4-5, I go FUT cuz I gotta lot of ground to cover. And if it’s FUT, I’ll go with Dr. Rahal.

 

Mind you my only experience is with Rahal. Full disclosure. I’m biased.

3185 FUT with Dr. Rahal on 2/17/16

It's not as cut and dry and pick one. Each will specialize in one or two things: hairlines, crown, temples. Then to throw confusion in the mix you need to look at the procedure. They will specialize in one or two things: fue, strip. Then you need to drill down more: what punch do they use, machine. and why?

 

lots to look at.

 

the only sure thing is to avoid ARTAS and neograft at all cost. The pros will not touch either with the 10 foot pole. Basically means they are an amature.

FUT - H&W or Hattingen for bigger cases, Rahal for smaller Cases

FUE - Erdogan for bigger cases, Couto or Feriduni for mid size, Heitmann or Kaan for small cases

 

Konoir somehow was not on my radar. Have to check him out.

Arocha and Lorenzo for diffuse thinning have my Attention too.

 

Puuh, it is complicated...

Never heard of Konoir before now too. I can't seem to find many recent reviews by him, but I do agree everything I see is good.

If you are an active member of this site and have been researching hair restoration and still haven't heard of Dr. Raymond Konior you haven't done enough research really.

 

Though I will admit he is heavily booked and quite expensive these days (especially for FUE) which may limit the amount of recent posts.

But don't be afraid to use the search button, as he and a few select others come up on most people's top 5 surgeon lists.

 

He cured me and cured me for life.
