  • Posted to 3rd Bosley Procedure Coming Up Soon - Raleigh, NC and Philadelphia, PA on 4 May 2011

    I have long and ugly scar which would be visible if I used number2 clippers and maybe with a number 3. I think you're wise to think carefully about.
    I think that, for most men, unless you're prepared to have 3 procedures totally 6000 grafts at a cost of 25k over a 3-4 year period, you're probably best not bothering.
    You may have less expectations than I did and be happy with less grafts but the only really happy patients that I've met are the ones who've had a large number of grafts...

    It's Dr Cornwell at the Bosley in Philly. Refuse to pay anymore than $4.50 a graft, meds are about $120 and don't bother with the $400 dollar "healing kit and shampoo". They used to give it away free and it makes no difference and all you really get is a good shampoo!
    Its a really long day in the chair so get someone to drive you home after.
    I use Propecia and Rogaine (generic version from Walmart) which has slowed down the hair loss but who knows....
    Its a good idea to get it done while you've still got some left up top...after my first my scalp had no cover but after the second I had enough hair not to look so bad at all.
    Good luck!!!
