Decision Time for FUT 36 yrs newbie

Well I would definitely agree with those pics posted, strip is completely insane. I wonder if that is in the brochure?

To the OP. I would listen to topcat and nobody else. Shit, I would not even listen to doctors.

Be very careful OP. There is no going back once you're ****ed you're ****ed.

I have to say agree with the boys here. It is a disgrace that FUT is still being offered and called "the gold standard" when there are far better treatments out there.

Avoid it at all costs OP. Get a FUE by Woods or Cole or HST by Gho but do not touch FUT.

FUT is the equivalent of a coat hanger abortion

What you have to understand is that not one of the posters who hijack every hair transplant thread to push the Gho agenda has any actual proof that Gho can regenerate hair follicles. Not all but many of these posters are uniformed trolls who poison this and other hair loss forums. These are the people you do not want to listen to. Topcat actually does have a lot of experience and much of what he says makes sense, but not everything he says is accurate either.
In your case I think recommending FUE is reasonable and depending on your donor and your goals FUT with a top surgeon can work out very well and of course you can always just do nothing. You’ll learn quickly to stay clear of the extremists on the hair loss sites and to do your own homework. Meet with patients who have had both FUE and FUT who are in a similar situation as you and take your time. There are lots of agendas on these sites but the smart people can read through the BS.

I've been losing my hair for about 10 years. I'm NW 7a as told by Dr. Pineda who got good reviews on this site by a few people.

I'm about 1 month away from doing FUT and getting cold feet.

I have only one concern and that is scarring. I'm concerned that I will never be able to shave my head again due to a large scar at the back of my head after the procedure. This is important if I'm not happy with the results as I figured I could always go back to shaving my head.

I'm told that I look good with a shaved head but don't believe a word of it. Not a single word...

I have a good amount of donor hair just not in the places I want them to be which is what Dr. Pineda should be able to take care of. Incidentally the doctor mentioned he'd try to maximize the number of FUTs in one session.

Please respond if you'd needed to or were able to go back to shaving your head.. Also curious if anyone was unhappy with their results and wished they hadn't done FUT procedure.

Pics included

It's true that I didn't have a transplant.

I would listen to topcat out of all the people in this forum and nobody else. Hes been on the chair a few times and knows all about this business.

Find his alias and send him a message.

God, it would be such a shame if you had FUT and then we find out Gho works as advertised. But there's nothing we can do about it right now .
