    That's the result of choosing the best surgeon,
    Hey Hal,

    it's been a little while since this post, but I'm interested to know how the procedure has held up to date?

    What surgeon / practice did you go to?

    Who were on your short list?

    Considering a procedure, but don't want to blow the cash if it's all just going to fall out.

    And of course, want to get the best doctor.

    PM if more comfortable.

    Just to add since this thread is active again: It would be interesting to see how this breaks down by age and norwood class.

    I would BET that older males tended to be more satisfied and higher norwoods were also more satisfied.

    Norwood 5s and 6s who have been bald for a while are usually THRILLED to see some hair and have their face framed.

    Older males have no expectation of looking 18 again and tend to me more realistic.

    The most upset people I see are young males who are NW2-3 trying to turn back the clock too far.

    Based on my experience with a lot of repair patients reaching out to me, the numbers are probably more. Most folks do not want to post in a thread. Some sign gag orders and some gag orders are broken by the doctor or clinic. Even then, they just reach out to folks going through issues privately. Very unfortunate, but this really does happen.
