    Hey James!

    Intrigued as to why you recommend Erdogon and Dogonay? Have you had experience with them??

    Thanks

    In my initial post of this topic I mentioned that there is a lot of bias info online and on these forums who are people part of associations or promoting specific surgeons. I asked @Jamesst11 why you recommended erdogan in turkey? I ran a search on the forum for his name and it seems that no results come up however just a lot of posts containing YOUR user name where you have mentioned to a lot of people to go with this surgeon as he is your "favourite" This smells fishy to me .. . Are you on here to promoted specific surgeons and bias yourself? OR??? i am intrigued as to why you went quiet and dint answer my question....

    haha... I understand. First off, I live in Michigan, US so I have never even spoken to erdogon or dogonay. I have never had a consult with them. I have had one HT with BOSLEY and got pretty butchered. In all my very thorough research, I come across surgeons that have what seem like consistently good results and happy patients. I also might talk about Shapiro, H&W, etc... I say erdogon or dogonay, simple because I one day will get a big transplant, and one of them is who I will chose. I mean, Look at swooping's results... flawless.

    What were your expectations versus reality in regards to hair pieces? I think it's likely that your experience there will be similar to what a lot of guys experience is with hair transplants:

    1. You're feeling desperate about hair loss.
    2. You find out about a possible solution - surely it must work, if guys are doing it.
    3. You go that route, and afterwards you discover the limitations and drawbacks.
    4. Repeat.

    Learn about the limitations and drawbacks before committing to surgery. Just like hairpieces are not a good option for everybody, neither are hair transplants.

    Hi
    I'm a long time reader of these forums and researcher of everything hair loss from medication's to surgery. And of course surgeons. Im talking ten years research. I firmly believe the best two surgeons are in Belgium ...dr bijan feriduni and dr bisinga. These two have constantly produced good results also dr edward ball in the UK is worth a look. My choice would be dr feriduni.

Hair transplants have been around for long enough now that one would like to think they are standard practice and fairly advanced however it seems to me that the longer time goes on the more mistakes happen?

    When reading online as we all know it is very difficult to find non-biased information. You google "best hair transplant surgeons in UK" or whatever and all those results you see are paid Adwords so thats no good. . I think surgeons can pay to be part of these associations right? I even just read a post on here from a guy, Alan who had his HT with an IAHRS surgeon and its THE most horrific story I have read so far! What does that tell us?

    I guess what I am trying to say is that it's so difficult to find through research these days WHERE is even reliable to go for a good HT. Then on top of that there is so much information out there saying that even if you DO find a good surgeon and pay them a sizeable chunk of money for your HT. . EVEN THEN your not guaranteed to get a great result, even then it can cause your hair to fall out or give you constant redness of scalp, or the grafts could not take. . You can be £10k ++ out of pocket to look worse than you did before?!!

    If anybody can show me a surgeon based mainly in the UK or Europe but can also be inter national who has achieved consistently good results with no hiccups and horror stories CONSISTENTLY for a long period of time then PLEASE let me know!

    Some cases you wont fine such stories online. There is a lot of private talks. Just be careful and plan this out accordingly. A proper surgical protocol is in your favor if you decide FUE or FUT but it is critical you analyze to see if meds stabilize the loss first.

    Please think this through and make sure you go with a surgeon that is willing and able to deliver for you safely.

    You do not want things to go wrong and imo if you do get surgery take baby steps and not risk everything at once. Ask good questions and make sure the doc is by you side. Best wishes

    You must understand the progressive nature of hair loss before you commit to medical therapy and surgery. Check out Belgium for FUE and FUT too. Best wishes.
