I just came back from my consultation at Apanelli Hair clinic about an hour ago. I noticed that the presentation was not as slick and as high tech as Bosley's, but I felt it was a shade more sincere, with fewer gimmicks.
Funny thing is that the consultant was actually honest and humble enough to admit that Dr. Mollura from Bosley "does good work". I knew I wasn't hallucinating!
Also, Dr. Frank's prices are in line with Bosely's: about $4,800 for 1,200 grafts using FUT, or $9,600 for 1,200 grafts using FUE.
I'm going to get FUE, as I don't like the idea of having a chunk of flesh carved out of my head.

Sorry for the delay, but I decided to not get a transplant for the time being. I have been using Hair So Real, and so far, so good.

I might add that I had 2 choices with Anapelli:
(1) do the strip method for $5,000
(2) do FUE for $10,000
The first option was too brutal; the second was too expensive. So, I decided to stick to Hair So Real. I did the math, and it would take me many decades before I spend 10k on this product.

That's very good of you to come back and update us. I also use a hair concealer for the time being, I use Toppik. But I admit that option is looking dimmer as I lose my hair. It's not looking so good anymore on places where I have a little bit of hair.
$5k FUT for how many grafts?

I think he said about 1,300 to 1,500.

Toppik works best when there is still a fair amount of native or transplanted hair within the area that it is being applied. The charged protein fibers need something to "cling to" as the fibers superficially increase shaft diameter.
As the amount of exisitng hair decreases, so does the illusionary effects from Toppik. There are other concealers that color the scalp surface.
