hello

first, I make clear that noone, neither me, cannot doubt about the astonishing effects of hair transplantation

but also I believe many clinics really are misleading and report exaggerated results

in the above photos:
http://www.hairaid.com/photo/photo/item90065.html
it is obvious that the person in the second/"results" photo has longer hair (as the hair at the sides show), so they are comparing different hair lenghts! and this is very misleading!

also at this webpage:
http://www.hairaid.com/photo/photo/item90060.html
the person in the first photo has his front hair combed up, and in the second combed at the side which covers his hairline! again they are comparing differently combed hair! (this time the hair lenght seems about the same) this is very misleading as well!

and you can notice, that clinics websites are full of such pre/after photos

the same goes for some regrowth medications/lotions etc

why do they do this? I mean where is honesty? or they just don't realize it?

With the differing hair lengths, I think it's just a case of how the patient happens to have their hair at the time when they go along for the photographs. Most doctors are unlikely to insist that they have the hair cut then and there to provide for a more accurate photo comparison.

The second example is best viewed from the top to see the change. Both cases are quite modest in terms of what was achieved.

If the hairline isnt shown on before and after pics, I dont even consider that Dr to work on me. I agree that the diff in hair lenghts is misleading to.

Only way to be sure is to meet patients in person.

Bauman is a corporate pimp. I wouldn't even use him as target practice... He reminds me of a pencil with a rubber at the end.
