Regular Member Stuart_j Posted May 13, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hi guys! I used this forum a lot when I was researching where to go for my hair transplant and it was really helpful, so I thought it might be worth posting my results/experience in case they could help someone else. I had a hair transplant with Dr Gabel in December of 2020. I'd previously had an unsuccessful transplant in 2009, so was a little wary and really did my research this time around. As I already had a scar from my first procedure, it made more sense to go the FUT route for me, although FUE was an option too. We ended up doing 1900 grafts and I started seeing some results around 3-4 months after the procedure. Here are a few pics of me before the procedure and pictures of my hair now. I used the same bathroom with the same lighting for a fair comparison (except the pictures with the line on my forehead - they were taken just before the procedure). I honestly couldn't be happier with the results and with my experience with Dr Gabel. He responded to emails with any questions after the procedure and did all the work himself and didn't pass it off to a technician and I found him to be a really kind man. For anyone out there on this forum looking for the right doctor like I was 2 years ago, if Dr Gabel is on your list of options I couldn't recommend him more! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Ryan Daniel Posted May 14, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 14, 2022 I love it man. It looks like you had nothing done, which is the goal If you want my advice, don't let the sides get longer than the top. Tighten the sides with a number 4 guard and you will rock it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
