Comments on: What Is The True Cost of Hair Transplants? http://www.hairtransplantmentor.com/hair-transplant-cost/what-is-the-true-cost-of-hair-restoration/ Hair Loss Information; Hair Transplants Mon, 19 Dec 2011 11:20:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: jotronic http://www.hairtransplantmentor.com/hair-transplant-cost/what-is-the-true-cost-of-hair-restoration/comment-page-1/#comment-255 jotronic Fri, 03 Sep 2010 22:31:40 +0000 http://hairtransplantmentor.com/uncategorized/what-is-the-true-cost-of-hair-restoration/#comment-255 I appreciate your comments and thanks for chiming in. You know, I put this blog over eight years ago to show ALL of the possibilities with a successful hair transplant, not to mention what it is like to have one from beginning to end. I have multiple hair styles to show what is and what is not possible. I know my hair looks better in some instances than others. But yeah, I think it looks better in person. I'm happy with it and the first real of thumb with photos is that they never, no matter how good, represent exactly what you'll see in person. That goes for me and for any patient of any clinic, period. I appreciate your comments and thanks for chiming in.

And I guess these days with HT and the skill of some Doctors you cannot go wrong. The only time anyone does go wrong is choosing a cheap Doctor who uses old techniques or if a person loses more native hair after a transplant and expectations are not met Can I ask... I see a number of before and after photos. Some look amazing and some are average. Do you believe that pictures really allow people to scrutinise and nit pick whereas the hair looks alot better in real life. I hear alot about guys who have met you and say that you should see his hair in real life! Thanks so much Hi there

It's really tough to say what kind of improvement one will see above and beyond a specified recommendation. When we make a recommendation it is based on what we think is possible if the patient were to have surgery on the same day of said recommendation. The amount of hair above this recommendation that can be taken with three months of exercises depends on the make up of your scalp tissue. Those with thicker scalps tend to need more time to loosen up whereas those with thinner scalps can make the donor area more loose in less time. The physiology of any patient determines how loose the patient can make their donor area assuming the scalp exercises are performed as instructed. So, in summary, I don't exactly know. It can range from an increase of 500 grafts to 2000 grafts but of course because we don't know exactly what we'll get sans scalp exercises we cannot accurately gauge how much benefit the patient received in the end. We do know they work however as tight patients have returned with loose scalps after even a few weeks of exercises. Hi Dave,

If the doctors estimated 4500 grafts what percentage over that estimate might one expect if the laxity exercises were followed? will the laxity exercises you demonstrate really help if started 3 months prior to your very first procedure?

Five years on I'm still enjoying the difference that my procedures have meant for me and I still appreciate the comments by my readers. In my case, Mike in our Seattle office told me that my donor area was a 3 out of 10. This was because I had two stacked donor scars in my donor area but my density was not the best either. In fact, it was average at best but my hair is considered to be on the fine side so more grafts were needed in my case to get the same result of someone with hairs that are thicker in diameter. My saving grace has always been what Dr. Wong has called my "mutant laxity" in that my laxity was way above average even after having two previous procedures. That is why my case, especially back in the day, was considered to be so unusually good. Regarding the email issue, thank you for pointing it out. I'll work on it as soon as I can.

I really like your story because it was a great success and I feel we have many of the same hair characteristics. I've had Dr. Wong review my case via photos. Question re: your density. Were you above, average, or below average on the density scale? Do you know what your donor hair density was? Thanks... Ron PS Your jotronic@hairtransplantmentor.com email address isn't working. I sent an email earlier and it bounced back to me. FYI. Hi Joe,

The cost would be $18375 USD (taxes included). Hasson & Wong subtracts $400 for travel and pay for two nights lodging at a local hotel. I'm not sure what the conversion would be for pounds, but you can check at http://www.xe.com for accurate currency conversion. If you have any more detailed questions, please contact the clinic directly. Ask for me ;-). I look forward to speaking with you. Thanks for writing. Hi there.
