Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted May 18, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 18, 2021 I've never heard of that surgeon. One bite, everyone knows the rules....sorry, I just had to haha 2 My advice does not constitute a patient-physician relationship nor as medical advice and all medical questions/concerns should be addressed to your medical provider.

Regular Member TrialAcc Posted May 19, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) I picked up on this myself after realizing what hair transplants were 2-3 years ago. I remember seeing Dave in random youtube videos and he has a pretty noticeable crown bald spot that disappeared after he got mega rich and starting partying with models. Then I saw he openly admitted it. To be fair, I don't know why anyone in their late 30s~ with mild hairloss wouldn't look into a transplant with today's results. These guys are ideal candidates and it's a very good option. It's the NW5+ guys that still need some assistance from science.

I think he also did a procedure for Brian "White Mamba" Scalabrine. He won't do yours. His partner, Lopresti, will. 2. I've never felt so sure a doctor didn't care about meeting with me than my meeting with Lopresti. That doesn't mean he's a bad doctor or hair surgeon! But bedside manner is important to me, so this wasn't it. 3. Their book of before/after pictures are seriously and depressingly underwhelming. 4. They do not charge by graft. They charge a flat fee of $13,000, whether you are doing 750 grafts or 2000. No thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member 1978matt Posted May 19, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2021 I had a quick look and his results seem to lack the density of others. Nothing terrible but certainly not in the top 20. 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue the opposite, Norwood 5+ guys don’t need meds after getting an HT as much as a Norwood 2-3. They got nothing to lose and everything to gain, no pun intended.

If it’s a flat fee, wheres the incentive to do more work? You could expect the bare minimum. That business model works at hair mills, but not at patient-centered clinics.

I’d believe he’s done other treatments though like dutasteride, prp and microneedling. Surgeons have been offering that for years. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Yeah but think about what could happen if you could regrow even 25% of your original density through a new treatment or could get even 50% more grafts through a hair multiplication or cloning. Your illusion of density would become the real thing. Early NW guys at later ages without aggressive hairloss don't need to get gain anything back that their grafts can't already get them, they can get good-to-great density from 1 dense pack procedure. I wasn't talking about existing science, I meant future treatments like cloning to help higher NW guys get full heads of hair again.
