Bill - Seemiller Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Balboa, I've already moved your post to the "Hair Transplant Experiences and Surgeon Reviews" section of the forum where it belongs. Please don't delete it and then re-create it in the wrong section. I will be moving this thread again after you have a chance to read my message :-) Thanks, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill - Seemiller Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 No worries Balboa. I figured you and I were just operating at the same time here :-) If you are considering hair transplantation in the UK or Europe, I'd strongly consider consulting with: Dr. Bessam Farjo and Dr. Nilofer Farjo who often operate together on their patients Dr. Feriduni Dr. Devroye Dr. Kulahci You can find several examples of their work by browsing their profiles, our patient websites, and on our forum. There's certainly nothing wrong with traveling to get a quality hair transplant. But in my opinion, these physicians are doing excellent work in Europe and certainly worth considering.

Senior Member Balboa Posted October 26, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 does feller do transplants in the uk? and also Bill who is your No1 choice if you had to say thanks Dr A.

Bill - Seemiller Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Balboa, Dr. Feller does not do hair transplants in the UK. You'd have to travel to New York if you're interested in having surgery with him. However, if you're interested, you can always talk to and possibly meet with Spex who works for Dr. Feller. There are a lot of excellent physicians worth considering and the choice is very personal. If you read through my hair restoration story, you'll see who I chose and why. However, you will ultimately have to decide who you're most impressed with by looking through photos, videos, meeting patients in person (if possible), and consulting with physicians. I think the 4 I mentioned above would be an excellent place to start. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Balboa Posted October 26, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 looking at those docs profiles and results think ill have to definatly look into more detail about Feriduni i likd the results pics the hairlines are very good kind of what i wanted in the firstplace but like i said i will look and look and look some more when it comes to choosing a doc now after my first bad experiance can i ask you out of those names you gave me who you think is the best or would you say there equal?

Senior Member thanatopsis_awry Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 I'd also add in Dr. DevRoye to your list of European docs. Ultimately, Balb, since this is such a make or break surgery for you, I'd hate to see you make a decision with geography being a *primary* factor, *regardless* of who you choose. I would consult with a variety of clinics -- some close, some not so close -- and at the end let geography play a determining factor that you can weigh against your individual impressions of the docs in question. Since you have done FUE, and given your circumstance as Bspot has mentioned, you should look into some who are pro-active in both FUE and strip, IMHO. Feriduni, DevRoye, Feller, Shapiro, e.g. ----------- *A Follicles Dying Wish To Clinics* 1 top-down, 1 portrait, 1 side-shot, 1 hairline....4 photos. No flash.

Senior Member the B spot Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 You should look at Dr. Bisanga as well. He does both methods, does not push one over the other.

Senior Member mattj Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 Dr Bisanga does some very good FUE work, and I've recently seen some cases from a Dr Keser in Turkey (OK, not Europe but close) which are excellent. However, I haven't heard enough about that doctor yet to really vouch for him, and I'm not sure what his standing is on this website. I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.

Senior Member Balboa Posted October 26, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 its a tricky one as i need someone who is very well known for there repair work also. i need a very good all round doc i suppose i dont mind travelng if its going to make a world of diffrence it would just be nice to be able to go home after surgary rather than being stuck in a hotel room im so impressed with hasson and wong but then again im still undecided on fue and strip. the aramni clinic has realy put me against FUE but maybe other docs can do it proply LOL @ B spot for the rocky comment Dr A.

Senior Member Sparky Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 I've literally just had hair removed from the hairline with Dr Bisanga and although all of my scabs havent gone yet, I'm confident that there will be zero visible scarring. Where the scabs have fallen off I cant see any scarring or white dot marks.

Bill - Seemiller Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Balboa, Though there are a handful of clinics out there doing quality FUE work, do know that most reputable physicians still agree that FUE is less consistent than strip as a whole. Despite what some have said, some patients simply aren't candidates (too much hair loss and not enough donor, donor hair is too fragile to survive the additional forces placed on the follicle during extraction, etc.). The only real advantage to FUE is that you aren't leve with a linear scar in the back and sides of your scalp afterwards. However, many strip scars are so minimal that they're concealed very well even with short hair. I'm not trying to persuade you one way or the other, just trying to give you some more information to think about. All the Best, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Sparky Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 By the way I'm in the UK. Took me 2 hours to get to Brussels from St Pancras/Kings Cross, then 30 mins to walk to the clinic, I'm going back in Feb next year to finish off.

Senior Member thanatopsis_awry Posted October 26, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 Spark, do you think you'll document your result(s) w/ Bisanga? I've always been extremely impressed with that clinic, particularly their aggressive FUE work, and think it's a shame that they haven't involved themselves in this forum, and as a result there are few if any Bisanga patients who post. Anyways, I think Balboa is in an interesting but not necessarily terrible spot -- and I'd just reiterate that I'd consult with a *variety* of world-class clinics, preferably ones who are pro-active in both strip and FUE, get their prognoses, compare and contrast them, and *then* allow travel to come into play. Feller, SMG, Hasson+Wong, DevRoye, Bisanga I think would be an excellent 5 to consult with. I don't think Balb's distrust in FUE is unfounded, and since he needs maximum reliability and effect this go-around, it's a tough call. ----------- *A Follicles Dying Wish To Clinics* 1 top-down, 1 portrait, 1 side-shot, 1 hairline....4 photos.

Senior Member Balboa Posted October 26, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted October 26, 2009 thanks for the posts guys becuase of my scaring lumps to the recipiant site will this hinder the growth of more grafts going into that area? also with one of the top docs will i risk shedding some of my exsisting transplanted grafts when going into that area again as i dont want to risk loosing the transplanted grafts i have as Scorpion is having issues he had a 3000 strip with armani and then had 2 lots of fue to the front and the last fue session made allot of his strip and previous fue grafts fall out and its not coming back at a fast rate atall i no it was aramni but what could armani have done wrong when he put those extra grafts into the previously transplanted site? thanks Dr A.

Regular Member LondonTraveller Posted November 1, 2009 Regular Member Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hello there. My understanding is that the best doctors in Europe including the UK are: 1. Dr Bisanga 2. Dr Devroye and possibly Drs Farjo/Feriduni. (Incidentally, I had a procedure with the first two, but this is pure coincidence...)_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Sparky Posted November 1, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted November 1, 2009 Thana, I will definatly be documenting my my entire repair, as I'm sure I will get a good result. I'm going back to Dr Bisanga again in mid Nov to get some addtional grafts removed from the hairline, some that have regrown from the last removal (angles so bad its hard to know exactly how to insert the fue tool), some that may have been in resting phase. Then I plan to go back in Feb next year to finish off for good. I mean that, I wont have anymore Ht surgery after my hairline gets redefined next Feb. I've managed to not lose anymore hair since 2002 and if I do start to thin in the future, I dont care, at least I've had my scar filled so I can go considerably shorter. HT was a mistake but I'm trying to move on and get a satisfactory result. At least I'll have a sweet hairline to frame my face.

Senior Member Balboa Posted November 1, 2009 Author Senior Member Share Posted November 1, 2009 i do think the hairline i the most imprortant of all, like you said if it frames your face well it makes you better looking, i could live with a bald crown aslong as the hairline and top were filled well Dr A.
