FUE with Dr. Gabel… Second Round


Recommended Posts

  • Regular Member

     Just got back home after having second FUE procedure with Dr Gabel in Portland. This procedure was just as good as the first one I had several years ago and I could not have had a better experience. Dr. Gabel has a beautiful facility in Tigard and his staff is awesome. I had 1577 grafts inserted into my frontal area, mid-scalp and crown to thicken up the top.

     The front was originally done in 2018 and it turned out really nice, but after examining me, Dr Gabel wanted to do a small touch up to fill in a few areas that he felt would strengthen the overall procedure; so he included that in this procedure as well. Not only is Dr Gabel and excellent clinician but he is ethical and caring as well. He was always listening to me and my wife and only suggested work that was in my best interests. I was really well cared for and had a great experience and I couldn’t be more pleased. 
 

That’s it for now, pics don’t want to load in the right orientation for some reason but I’ll load them anyway!

Hey all, here are a couple of pic’s 5 weeks after Initial surgery on January 2nd. Everything is going well so far, been shedding for a few weeks but it seems to be settling down now.

All soreness is gone and it’s back to my busy life again…

Best to all,

Mark

Hi Melvin, for some reason I cannot get the picture to post right side up… no matter how I try to format them so please excuse the orientation.

Anyhow, this is exactly two months post surgery, all is going well and I’m hoping for a great final outcome down the road.

Best of luck to all!

Haven't seen a Gabel result here in a while, though I've liked his past results. Following this thread - happy growing man.

Dr. Gabel is absolutely one of the best. Thanks for sharing your review. He’s one of the best we have in the US.

Here is 3 months post FUE with Dr Gabel, so far things seem to be going fine. Scalp is starting to itch and tingle a bit. Here’s to hoping growth will start to accelerate!

sorry about the upside down pics… they will not load correctly no matter what I do!i

Hi Gatsby, 

The last set of photos is actually 3 months out. I’m excited for the growth to take off!

Take care…

 

Great work! May I ask how much Dr Gabel cost was per graft?

Hi Chris

Dr Gabel has moved away from per graft pricing. If you consult with him send pics etc he will give you his cost.

Looking good so far. I re-uploaded your pics to make them face the correct way.

Here is a couple of pictures 4 mos. From the day of surgery. So far everything is going ok. It’s hard to see the new grafts sprouting because there is still a fair amount of native hair in the areas Dr Gabel worked in. I expect the growth to accelerate from this point forward! Patience is the key!

Best to all, IMG_2975.thumb.jpeg.398294025ff83fe07e9a2136bc0c734e.jpeg
