Default Mr Confused

Hi Spex
I visited u a few years ago 4 a bit of advice.The last few years I stopped caring about my hair but its only recently Im gettin down about it.1 minute I think I want another procedure & the next is 2 shave my head,then the thought of my scar puts a stop 2 that thought.I think maybe FUE on my scar might help.I also think wat if I have another procedure & then again in a few years I need another & so on.If I do decide 2 go thru it again I then get confused with Dr to use.Obviously I know Dr feller is the 1 u would recommend.but could u just recommend say 5 other top doctors just so i know who is good.obviously dr feller being in new york is probably the easiest.I heard dr rahal is good too.is that true?.shame I didnt take advantage on the $2 to the £ a few years ago but I guess thats not the reason to go ahead with it when I have to be 100% sure Im doin the right thing.does dr feller use sutures or staples & what is the reason he uses what he does.thanks spex,hope 2 hear from u

Any help from anyone would be appreciated

Question

So did you have your first hair transplant with Dr. Feller? You can go to www.iahrs.org to find the best hair transplant surgeons, but why would you not go back to your original doctor if you plan on having another procedure?

Hi Winston, thanks for the reply

I have had 3 previous procedures....the first 2 were way back about 13-14 years ago with Dr Rogers here in the UK when he worked for Wellesbourne, and my last one was probably 5 years ago or so with Farjo in Manchester....I have heard its best to travel to the US or Canada so thats whats been on my mind lately. Just out of interest how come Dr Berstein charges $6 a graft yet Dr Feller/Dr Rahal charge around $4.....just wondered

Yes your right. FUT surgery. Some doctors on the IAHRS site charge $4/graft while others charge $6-7/graft..Why is that??
