Regular Member x.moonprincess.xo Posted April 19, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hey all, I had a hairline lowering surgery back in 2017, then in 2018 i got a hair transplant to help cover my scarring which ended in a failed transplant. I went with Dr Arocha Bernardino. I live in Texas and thought he was the best in the area, but my results were horrible. I had the worst swelling ever to where i couldnt see. I havent seen swelling on anyone else like the way i swelled, the hair growth was poor, very uneven, to low and pluggy. Also with a wide scar on the back of my head. I have the option to go back for a free repair but i don't think i'll risk that. Ive been lasering off the old hair hairs since august of 2020 and i should be almost finished. So now i'm left with a scar im trying to cover & creating a new natural looking hairline with lowering it as little as possible... I'm deciding on Shaprio & Dr Nadimi they both seem to have great results and feed back from patients.... Any help would be great! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted April 19, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 19, 2021 Dr. Nadimi is a great surgeon, as is Dr. Shapiro. Dr. Shapiro has a lot more experience. I don’t think anyone would say otherwise. That said, I’ve seen excellent results from both surgeons, and both are definitely worth consulting with. In regards to your case with Arocha. He’s also a very good doctor. can you please send me your name and date of surgery. I would like to reach out to him regarding your case.

Senior Member Britanium Posted April 19, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted April 19, 2021 Both good choices. You will find more results from Shapiro as he has many more years of experience. Is it just those 2 that on on your short list ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member x.moonprincess.xo Posted April 19, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted April 19, 2021 I was considering Dr Dorin, Shaprio, Scott Boden, Konior/ Nadimi.... But i think i'm going to pick between Shapiro/Nadimi they seem to have alot of great consistent results on here... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted April 19, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted April 19, 2021 Great choices. I'd add @Dr. Vladimir Panine as well. He's been putting out phenomenal work for 25+ years and is board certified in dermatology and did his surgery training at Stanford. I believe his consults are free too and he's doing virtual consults. Sorry to hear about your poor experience.

Senior Member HairRun Posted April 19, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted April 19, 2021 Nadimi is not on the coalition (yet?) but seems to be an up and comer who has been very impressive, studying under Konior who is is mentioned on this forum for attention to detail, and doing more of the work that is usually performed by the technicians. I am guessing Nadimi is also working under the same school of philosophy. Seems very worth doing at least a consolation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
