I may be nuts, but this seems like kind of a big deal, yet there are only a few of us commenting on this thread. Maybe we're all just suckers lol.

I know. It almost sounds too good to be true. It seems to be legit though. That being said no need to rush into things. If this procedure has a good reputation in 3 or 4 years I might consider going down this route. Wait and see.

For 1300 Grafts pretty solid and it resembles somehow Gho.

Man i dont know why, maybe i am an optimist but right now i have the feeling that patients get more and more educated

Just for comparison to the Gho's images. Here are my results.

For less than 2000 grafts, your results seem fair. So you are still not sure if your hair regenerated? H&w do sessions with high graft counts, which is why you see big transformations. You won't see that with less than 2000.

thanks jeffro this is helpful... there are a lot of people complaining about the results on Gho's website and they really do look comparable if not the same as your FUE result

No problem. Yeah, the first time I went to his site I thought to myself "these aren't any better than my transplant". But if the donor really is regenerating like he claims, then its amazing.

If its real, I think it would be interesting to see it in the hands of a more artistically skilled surgeon and possibly combined with the benefits of Acell.

he's booked through next march at three different clinics he doesnt give a shit about our forum

There is no need to be condescending. I emailed his clinic and made
him aware of the interest on the forum. It would be great if he occasionally
checked in to answer a few questions. The same way that doctors Zering, Cooley and Cole do.

Has anyone bothered to make Dr. Gho aware of all the dialog going on here.
I am sure it would help a great deal if he joined the forum and occasionally checked in so he could answer questions the same way that Dr. Cole and others do.
If not the doctor himself maybe a representative like what CIT Girl, Mattij or Janna do for us. Just a thought.

With regards to the results on Gho's site. I had 1300 FUE a couple years ago and my results look pretty similar to the HST images. They don't look like a master transplant from H&W, but in my opinion, they look on par with results from normal surgeons at that amount of grafts. (I consider H&W abnormal, in a good way, because the results they post are phenomenal).

[NeedHairASAP]

I have a few problems with Gho:

1. Other surgeons are not going to offer this stem cell thingy because he has a patent on it (probably).

2. There are a lot of disputes about the quality of hair that is transplanted. If you take part of the follicle, don't expect an entire new one to grow there. It's going to be much thinner hair. The only thing oyu can do is have a real hair transplant at a real surgeon (like Feriduni or Hasson & Wong) and make sure oyu have enough hair at the front, and in the worst case scenario go to Gho to transplant the crown a little bit, just enough to hide it with toppik or something...this is maybe a bit somber but I don't see any other option at the moment.

3. Gho almost never does the operations himself. He has nurses and other employees who do it.

4. None of the results that are shown on the website are results that you can expect with a technique that is claimed (by Gho) to be revolutionary.

5. I just saw Wesley Sneijder on TV the other day...his hair doesn't look as thick as in the beginning...maybe it has to do with the fact that he's not taking any meds to halt further hair loss.

Again, these are just my opinions/feelings/speculations...

1. thats not true... botox has a patent but many doctors use it because of the high demand for it.... gas stations don't have the rights to snickers candy bars but they still sell them... its all about demand so everyone start emailing surgeons and asking if they offer HST!

2.
a.I think that these disputes were ended... i'll have to find a source for this though.
b. yes that is an option if hasson and wong dont find enough demand for HST

Edit# 1: here is the source to back my statement above... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20388024

Edit #2: I just realized the above source is from a study done by gho... so i guess you can yell conspiracy if you wanted to... I think there is an article that also back Gho's findings above that was done by some italian scientists I'll have to get back to you guys on it..


3. this is true, especially as there are three clinics across europe... I would rather have a technician who does it everyday and leave the research and development to gho anyway.... if we can demand HST from other doctors than maybe you can have feller or hasson and wong do HST on you.. imagine that.. its all about demand

4. You mean that there should be better before after results from a technique that makes such claims?
this is true, the results on the website aren't great but ...
a.when you have to wait a year in between treatments

b. the maximum number of grafts per session pegged under 1,900 (and between 2006-2009 only 600 grafts per session)

c. the cost of a full restoration being 60k-100k (depending on when you started)

d. its only been available since 2005 or 2006

so......(600+600+600+600+1800+1800=6000 grafts) so in the best case scenario... if a patient started getting treated in 2005... and stayed on PERFECT schedule of session up until this very day the best we could have is a 6,000 graft patient.



5. thats fair. just remember he recieved only 1700 FUE and he was a pretty diffuse nw3 (maybe nw4 or 5) with thin hair to begin with and a shaved head

Needhair your arguments seem so familiar :-)

Anyway i have to correct you her, 12.000 Grafts aka 5 years, just calculate one year for the unexpected.

Anyway i am really lokking forward to when Gho offers 3000 Graft sessions, I really wanna see how other surgeons react then.

The most funny thing would be a flatrate, where he harvest the whole possible donor area or so, this would be effin funny.
