Consultant Josh Engoren


Just wanted to update everybody and show where I started in 1999 and where I am now in 2016.  I speak to a lot of people who don't realize I am a patient of Dr. Bolton.  
Not only has Dr. Bolton had the procedure but I have too.  I think it is important to know that the people who are working with you,  to restore your hair, have done this themselves.  We know what it was like to lose hair and get it back.

53 years of age

The above link is of my healing/growth process after surgery with Dr. Brett Bolton


The link above will give you my entire patient history 

I believe our website is one of the most complete and transparent websites in hair restoration.  We have over 300 videos, 400 testimonials and we show everything, leave out nothing.  Hold any other practice to our standard.   Can they demonstrate the consistency and quality of work for a lot of their patients?  How many examples do they show?  How is the quality of the video/photographs?  I believe not too many places can demonstrate that they are getting the quality of results you see here.  I welcome feedback from anyone and if you would like to email or call me please do.

For our potential overseas patients I invite you to instant message me.

Thank you.

UPDATE - JACK


THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PATIENTS AND RESULTS.  JACK, KNOWS WHAT HE WANTS AND HE IS WILLING TO FOLLOW THE GAME PLAN TO ACHIEVE IT.  HE WANTED A LOWER HAIR LINE THEN WHAT ANY DOCTOR COULD DO.  HE SAW DR. BOLTON'S WORK AND HE KNEW DR. BOLTON WAS HIS BEST CHANCE.  MISSION ACCOMPLISHED AND CONGRATS!

PRIOR TO JACK'S FIRST PROCEDURE




AFTER JACK'S THIRD PROCEDURE

BASICALLY, WE JUST LOWERED THE HAIR LINE EACH PROCEDURE UNTIL WE SATISFIED WHAT JACK WAS LOOKING TO ACHIEVE.

CASE HISTORY OF FUE PATIENT (REPAIR)


BELOW YOU SEE DR. BOLTON'S SUTURE LINE AFTER SUTURE REMOVAL. DR. BOLTON WILL LEAVE YOU WITH ONE SCAR AND YIELD ANYWHERE FROM 6,000 - 14,000 DEPENDING ON THE PATIENT'S NEED.  IF YOU BLOW THIS PICTURE UP YOU WILL SEE THERE ARE FUE SCARS THROUGH THE ENTIRE DONOR AREA AND EVEN OUTSIDE THE DONOR AREA WHERE THE HAIRS CAN FALL OUT AGAIN AS THEY ARE NOT IMMUNE TO HAIR LOSS.  DR. BOLTON ONLY TAKES HAIR FROM THE SAFE ZONE.



BELOW IS THE SAME PATIENT WHO HAD A FUE (SCARLESS?) PROCEDURE.  FUE IS MARKETED AS A SCARLESS PROCEDURE.  IT IS NOT.  IT IS MORE SCARRING AND DEPLETES THE DONOR AT AN ACCELERATED RATE.  HIS ENTIRE DONOR AREA AND OUTSIDE THE DONOR AREA HAS THE CYLINDRICAL SCARS.  THIS IS JUST A SMALL AREA EXPOSED FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES.

Dr. Bolton photos stolen again!


Dr. Brett Bolton is probably the most copyrighted infringed hair doctor in the world.  It is shameful that doctors with zero and ability and talent can just steal his work and represent it as their own.  It is a difficult process to enforce and protect Dr. Bolton's work especially when it is overseas.  It is a backhanded compliment that of all the doctors in the world to choose photos or videos from, these bottom feeders chose Dr. Bolton.  Hopefully, we can have these doctors make restitution like some of the doctors and corporations in the U.S. have been made to do.

UPDATE!

             
                                                    
I am now 35 days post op and I can testify that waiting for my new permanent hair to grow is absolutely the most challenging part of the recovery.

I would say that 95% of the transplanted hairs that I had after the first couple of weeks all fell out over the next couple of weeks.  I have a few really thick long ones in the very front of the new hairline that just refuse to fall out --- I think they've decided they are here for the long haul.

I really won't see the new hair start to grow in permanently for another 60-90 days, and it will still be another 11 months or more before all the hairs have their fullness and thickness.

I've been on Propecia now for a couple of weeks.  No side effects yet

I'll be starting 2% minoxidil this week

Here are a few pics I sent to Josh
  • The grafted area is still a bit pink, like a have a sun burn.  In my research, i was prepared that this was perfectly normal.  In fact, depending on your skin type, the redness can last for 3-4 months.  I am as pasty white Irish pale as it gets, and I burn easily in the sun.  I have a sensitive skin.  I fully expect that my skin type is the type that will experience the redness for up to that period of time.
  • the second picture is the back of my head where the suture line is.  I am trying to lift up as much hair with a comb as I can,  As you can see, the suture line is already impossible to detect.  It's a very thin pink/red line that you have to get up right next to, and separate the hairs to see it.
So far, everything is exactly the way Dr. Bolton and Josh said it would be.

Thanks again to everyone at GHT.

I'll be back for more updates soon!

Hey Josh, great to hear from you!

hope things are going well.

Most of the knowledge I've gained is really from you and Dr. Bolton.  

I looked everywhere online and talked on the phone with a few patient advisers at other other places.  But nobody was transparent.  It was clear to me that to get the answers from those companies, I was going to have to do all the leg work, spend a lot of time and probably take a lot of risks, and maybe have to spend a lot of money.  As a consumer, that is absurd.  We live in the digital age, where all the answers should be one click away and easy to find on a company's website.  If a company doesn't have those things, then I assume that they are either hiding something, or incompetent.   Either way, its a warning sign that something is amiss.

I really was about to give up and wait for better technology or industry improvement, and then I found Great Hair Transplants.  And it had everything I really needed to educate myself.  

And despite all the pictures and videos and testimonies... the real selling point was that you guys aren't scared to show exactly how the process is done.  From the consultation, to the harvesting, to the grafting.  Even the granular details like the 30 sq cm strip of skin tissue, showing the bulb, explaining what transection of a hair is, showing why multiple follicular unit graphs are necessary for results, despite accepted industry "standards", showing the suture lines.  Those are the things that I was trying to find for years, and didn't find, until I found your site.

On a side note, I think its kind of funny that two of the more open patients on the internet are XXXX and LXXXXX - both of whom endorse other doctors, and yet, both of whom learned everything they know from Great Hair Transplants and even had their first (and most important) procedure with you guys, using Dr. Bolton's technique.  Something we can talk about over a beer one day I guess.

Talk to ya soon

FUE TURKEY



We receive many requests from people like this gentleman below who want to know what we recommend for them.  We tell them that they are a challenging case because of the amount of hair they have lost relative to what we can give them back in one procedure.  We are honest and straightforward.  We do not tell people what they want to hear.  This gentleman was told he would get coverage from front to back with an FUE procedure.  FUE is a disaster for a patient with this hair loss.  FUE is a low yield, high damage to the donor area procedure.  He needs hair.  A lot of hair.  Nobody moves more hair then Dr. Bolton.  He regularly moves 10,000 - 15,000 hairs in less then 6 hours from start to finish.  This gentleman got approximately 3,000 hairs and his donor is severely compromised because it now has 3,000 scars over the entire donor area and beyond.

Unfortunately, most people have an expensive learning experience their first procedure.  You can't cover an entire area this large with FUE unless you spread it thin.  It is not a scarless surgery.  You can save money in Turkey but does that look like it was worth the travel and expense?

FUE is marketed very well by the companies that sell the machines that perform FUE.  Unfortunately, their claims are bogus.
