im 29

Not taking medications at all. Like I said im not really loosing that much hair, I just want to fix my receding hairline and bring down the front about 1cm.

Feller and Shapiro are in the US? Im looking for someone near Toronto if possible. If I cannot find anyone in Toronto my next choice would be to drive to Ottawa and see Rahal.

John,

If you are that concerned about traveling "which is foolish now adays considering most docs reimburse for travel" BTW im not calling you foolish" than consider Dr. Rahal. He's got an excellent reputation and he's pretty close to you. Definatly stay the night of the procedure. 2 reasons 1 because even though you arent doing anything it is very taxing on your body, and 2 you can go back the next day for follow up and they can show and do your 1st wash. 2 birds 1 stone!

I spoke with Dr. Rahals assistant today and they were very helpfull. I sent pictures and were doing a consultation over the phone after Dr. Rahal takes a look. His assistant Adrian advised I would only need around 1600 graphs when I compared a photo to a patient on his web site. They also said I will get 10% off the surgery for travel expenses which is awsome. Maybee ill drive down the night before the operation stay at a hotel, he said the prodedure would take place at 7:30am and i would probably be out by 3 or 4pm. Then sleep at the hotel and go for a post op in the morning.

Ill keep you guys posted. Thanks for the help !

So I take it you chose your doc. I hope this is your decision and your not folding to pressure. Remember you have to feel it in your gut! This forum is not here to push certain doc's only to watch out for our own and share our experiences. If Dr. Rahal is the one you choose than I would say congratulations and good luck, but w/ him you wont need luck

John,

Dr. Rahal is an excellent choice. I hope you'll create a hair loss weblog to chart and document your progress with pictures.

Keep us posted!

Best wishes,
