    Haha, yeah it's my fault, I didn't word my question very well.

    That's really what I'm wondering about most though, because if the donor area was large and dispersed like it has been in the photos that I've seen posted of his patients before then I can easily see the skeptics just saying what they always have about it being too difficult to monitor donor regrowth, impossible to prove blah blah blah like they always have before.

    If c5000 was willing to ask Gho if his donor area could be more compact than usual or close to the scar he has then it might be easier to monitor, it would be interesting to hear Gho's reaction to that request as well to see how confident he were in proving his technique. Of course that's asking a lot of c5000 though so it would be his decision. I'm just throwing the idea out there but obviously he needs to do what he feels comfortable with.

    Just made me wonder when he mentioneed Gho gave a guarantee of x% regrowth, if you went back to him and tried to claim that your regeneration wasn't as high as he promised, exactly how would he prove otherwise, or would you have the right to challenge his claim in anyway.

    These are just questions I've thought of in the past so thought they might have some relevance being asked/mentioned here, but like i said, c5000 the most important thing is you get a good hair transplant your happy with, everything I'm mentioning comes second to that so if you ignore the questions I've mentioned then no problem, focus on the important stuff. Still thought I'd ask about it though haha

        he doesnt do large session because he thinks its traumatic for the donor area so I doubt he'd be for a small donor area

          Hi All.

          I emailed Dr Gho yesterday at 11am UK time, it's now 4pm the following day and I've not received a reply yet, fingers crossed he'll get back to me.

          I wrote:

          "Hi Dr. Gho.

          I'm writing regarding the consultation I had with you in London on Wednesday.

          I am really excited about the work that you do, and I am almost 100% sure that I want to go ahead with it.

          I do have a couple of questions though.

          You mentioned that you guarantee donor regrowth of 80-90%, could you tell me a little more about this guarantee? Is it verified with photos or some other method? Also, what happens if 80-90% donor regrowth doesn't happen?

          For me, the cost of £7,700 is a lot of money, but I will save to find that money as I really think that this is the procedure for me, what I'm wondering is: If I sign up for the procedure, and then have a change of heart, am I still liable to have to pay the £7,700 or is there a minumum amount of notice I can give if I want to cancel?

          I really don't think I would change my mind, but just want to know what would happen if I did. What would happen for example if I wanted to book the procedure for November/December 2012, but in August I had a change of heart and wanted to cancel?

          Thank you so much for your time."


          Should I be worried that he hasn't replied?

            Ha I wouldn't be too worried yet.... He probably has a lot more on his plate then an email from a prospective patient who sounds like hell bail

              So its been about 2 weeks since I filled out the consultation form on Gho's site, but I haven't heard anything back from them.... makes me a little skeptical. For those of you that have made contact, did you have to call first?

                What did you email him? I sent them a quick short email and didnt get a reply about a month ago - in hindsight I probably came across as somebody without money and probably not really likely to get a HT... so I don't blame them for not emailing me back.

                I'm going to follow up with something significant next week.

                  I think its hard to get in touch with them, as they are currently booked out for the next 6 months and more. It doesnt seem to me that they are desperately looking for clients. Apart of that, they didnt come back to me neither when i filled out the contact form, so a while back I just called and signed up for their treatment. In the contract that i signed they dont mention the guarantee for donor regrowth.

                    imo no financial guarantee can make up for the scarring if the donor does not regrow. However I really hope that Gho actually does what he says he does. Good luck with your procedure man!

                      Ahhhh uninformed again.

                      Do you think traditional hair transplants create scars?

                      You are not by any chance one of SpanishDudes friends right? Because you remain on the scar equals no regrowth thing

                      I dont know where a lot of baldies have been the last months or so, because even Dr Cole mentioned that he saw regrowth on a small scale but thats not important, i mean what do we baldies need almost infinite donor for right?

                      FUT and Propecia is da Shizzle Bro

                      Donor regeneration and no medication is so lame and unspectacular

                          An arm and a leg. But if it really works it is SO WORTH IT. Check their rates on their site -hasci.

                            I have no idea what you are talking about hahaha, I am starting to think that you can't interpret sentences well... as far as Gho is concerned I am actually on your side - yes I love the idea of regrowth, minimal invasive procedure. I love innovation in this industry.

                            I am just saying that in my opinion financial guarantees won't do much if you do get botched.

                            Please learn2read.

                              i just think that the way gho reproduces hair is more natural (and probably safer) than the mutant hair regrowth that replicel, histogen, etc. will be offering.


                              for the record, I'm all for replicel, histogen, etc. I just think Gho's sounds safer
