Senior Member ahmeda87 Posted March 6, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted March 6, 2019 Help me Decide my FUE - Hasson & Wong Or Dr Feriduni ? - I am based in the UK but don't mind travelling. I have been quoted between 2800-3500 FUE - Both are pretty much the same price for the treatment. My decision is down to who can give me the best result and lowest transection rate. About me 32 years old: on the big 3 + Vits for 10 years, it has slowed down my hair loss dramatically. Never got sides from finasteride.Please help. See pic's of my hair loss.

Raphael84 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 @ahmeda87 Two great clinics mate. You have narrowed it down well. May I ask why and how you have narrowed it down to these two clinics? What have each clinic said to you? Without knowing exactly their recommendations, I believe that when it comes down to choice between physicians such as these, it becomes very much a personal choice. Who else did you consider and why have you ruled them out? I would be intrigued to know.

Who else did you consider and why have you ruled them out? I would be intrigued to know. Firstly Money... It is not really an issue so I want the best value for the best results. I was considering Dr Koray ASMED but he is doing 5-7 HT's a day which is worry. Dr Feriduni - Pro's : Reputation, 1-2 ops a day max, results with my type of MPB, local as I am in the UK Con's : he can do up to 3500 FUE in a day but I heard the limit is 2500 FUE per day so worried that doing it all in one day might cause shock loss? also graft survival is between 85-95%. Wong : Pro's : Met him in London, super humble guy and very informative. 3000 grafts over two days. 95% graft survival rate, Reputation, 1-2 ops a day max, results with my type of MPB Con's : slightly more expensive, Long journey from the UK, they are new to the FUE game but getting good results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphael84 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Its fantastic that you are doing your research and due diligence mate. I personally believe you do right to avoid ASMED if you are uncomfortable with aspects of their clinic and as I said, you have two fantastic physicians. Well done and keep us updated!

Regular Member Poseidon Posted March 10, 2019 Regular Member Share Posted March 10, 2019 How can a doctor do that many transplants in one day? That means they are not doing the work, and having their assistants doing most of it, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member home1212 Posted March 10, 2019 Senior Member Share Posted March 10, 2019 I was going to go with Dr. Wong in 2014 before H&W was doing FUE - instead went with Rahal who was already doing FUE at that time. You undoubtedly chose an excellent surgeon - good luck on your journey, should be exciting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member HairLossMentor Posted March 11, 2019 Regular Member Share Posted March 11, 2019 Quote How can a doctor do that many transplants in one day? You can't and control quality. Go with a doctor who does one (maybe two) cases a day. I say two because you can have one case in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Same team. Just 1/2 day. Problem with a lot of Turkish doctors is they are focused on volume. They have 8+ rooms and need a massive volume of patients to feed the "machine." While you might get a good doctor... in the end it's a business and money talks. It's more profitable to focus on volume and delegate to technicians...then perform 1-2 cases a day at a premium price. If you asked to be the only cases, you would get a polite but firm, "no." Lets face it, most of the Turkish docs USP is "we're cheaper." Problem is that's not sustainable. The competition will go cheaper. Take Korea. The USP there is cost. And most (even the busiest clinics) struggle to make any profit. A few of the Turkish docs have caught on and increased their price...the good ones anyway. But for the others, they are playing the short-game. And patients will pay the price.

Senior Member ahmeda87 Posted March 12, 2019 Author Senior Member Share Posted March 12, 2019 Hey Thanks for all the replies. Appreciate it. So I just saw Dr Farjo and he is a super nice guy and very informative. More importantly he quoted me 2000 grafts because for me donor management is very important. The Med's have held me on well but I know I will need another two FUE's in the future at least. Everyone in my family is is NW6/5 on both sides of the family. If I can hold a good head of hair till 50 then happy to go bald after that I think I am now over researching...... Farjo is literally a 30 second walk from my office. Dr Wong is also amazing but is it worth the travel from the Manchester, UK . Also I am considering Dr Lupenzula Anyway.... I want to make a decision very soon and this over researching is confusing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the day, as you've mentioned cost isn't a major factor for you, I'd suggest travel shouldn't be either if it means going to someone who you feel will give you the best chance of a great result. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
