You read a lot of negative comments and bad experiences about Bosley that dates back many years ago.

The Facts:

The Patient:
The biggest complaint at Bosley is handling patient’s expectations…it’s not medical.
“M&M” posting on 12/8/07, 8:25pm is a good example of this. M&M states: “…many of the top doctors on (clone my hair site) can actually transplant more that 2-3 times that number (meaning 2-3 times more than 2000+ grafts per procedure) in one session, making repeat sessions optional not necessary.”

1. If that is true how many hairs are in each graft? Typically a graft has approximately 2.5 hairs each. Are you getting one hair grafts? Don’t over-crowd grafts. Some might not grow. How long would it take to do a 4000-6000 graft procedure? (Two days? Just kidding).

2. When a doctor states that a second procedure “is optional not necessary” he/she is opening a can of worms. (From an expectation point of view).

Most patients want more hair. If they think that only one procedure will do it and don’t get the desired density, that second procedure he/she hadn’t planned for (especially financially) is a problem. Bosley’s written material that is given to all patients during their consultations states that “the great majority of our patients want to have at least two procedures to a given area.”

When looking at the doctor’s personal photo book find a patient who has the same results that you want and then ask your doctor can he/she deliver it.
