    Default Gho age restrictions?

    Does Gho refuse to operate on younger patients? what ages are you guys that have had the procedure done? sanook, gc, c5000...

    and did any of you guys have any scaring at all on your head from the procedure? I want to be able to still shave my head if I'd like to down the road

    as far as i know GC had 3000 hst grafts and he is able to shave it with clippers without guard, no white dots detected..

    but are there any visible 'gaps' between hairs, there should be about 450 of these gaps(15% of 3000)

    I'm wondering if there would be scarring if it was shaved with a razor..in case in the future I wanted to just shave my head and be bald

    That's exactly why I did the analysis. I've also linked the original, unedited pictures gc took.

    I've personally never seen any visible scarring from an HST patient online, but feel free to look through gc's pictures or any of the other's patients who had posted photos of their donor.

    I'm sure Gho told me he doesn't advise operating on anyone under 25 because you don't know how their hairloss will develop.

    Yes, but with his technique he should even be able to treat a nw7 correct? and what is the point of waiting until you are bald to do it instead of doing it progressively?

    I'm 29, 30 this year. I started with Hasci when I was 28.

    There is a patient who is 8 years old, who was in an accident of some sort, can't remember the specifics.

    Not used a razor, but I have it down to a zero atm. I might shave it with a blade just to see what it looks like in a couple of weeks. More out of curiosity!
