ThinnedHair Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Hi , I plan to do a FUT transplant soon and don't know who to choose. I am interested in the Dr Cooley group but I am told 6-12 months to get the transplant done, I thought that was a crazy amount of time to wait? I also recently learned about Dr Marko of Advanced Hair Transplants. I didn't know if he was good ? I tried looking at reviews for both places but most reviews look fake, like self written. I have seen in this forum board people liking Dr Cooley so wanted to see if anyone had experience with either of these 2 and recommendations ? Also, I don't expect to get this transplant done tomorrow but I can't wait 6-12 months to do it. That's half a year to a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally know someone who was able to have surgery only 6 DAYS after speaking with Hasson & Wong. That was due to someone else cancelling last minute, and super ridiculously lucky. But point being you never know. Edited May 25, 2022 by HappyMan2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member hotrod999 Posted May 29, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted May 29, 2022 Dr. Cooley all day. I’m booked for an FUT with him in December, scheduled it in February and that was the earliest date at the time. I did ask to be put on a cancellation list so it might happen sooner (I haven’t heard anything from them yet) but you can always ask to be put on the list too. Waiting really shouldn’t be a concern especially with an elite surgeon like Cooley. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Hairy Henderson Posted May 29, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 29, 2022 Any reason why Cooley hasn’t switched over to FUE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
