They offer a range of services, including surgical hair transplants using techniques like FUE and FUT, as well as non-surgical options such as prescription treatments, laser therapy, and scalp micropigmentation. Bosley aims to provide personalized solutions, with experienced physicians dedicated to natural-looking results and helping clients regain their confidence. They also offer consultations, both in-person and virtual, to discuss individual hair loss concerns and develop tailored treatment plans.
The company has a portfolio of client testimonials and before-and-after results that highlight the transformative effects of their procedures. Many clients express satisfaction with their experience, noting the professionalism of the staff, the comfort during procedures, and the significant boost in self-confidence and overall well-being. For instance, some individuals have described their results as life-changing and express regret only for not pursuing treatment sooner.
However, there are also reports from some individuals who were not satisfied with their results, citing issues such as uneven growth, the appearance of the transplanted hair, or hair thinning occurring a few years post-treatment. Some reviews mention high costs associated with the procedures and express concerns about the experience level of the staff involved in certain aspects of the process.
Procedures Offered
FUE
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area using a small circular punch tool. The harvested follicles are then carefully implanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp. This method leaves tiny, nearly invisible scars rather than a linear scar, resulting in faster healing and the ability to wear shorter hairstyles. Because of this, FUE is the most popular hair transplant technique today.
FUT
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), also known as the "strip method," involves surgically removing a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area, typically the back of the head. The strip is then carefully dissected under a microscope to separate individual hair follicles, which are implanted into the recipient areas. While this technique leaves a linear scar that requires longer hair to conceal, it allows surgeons to harvest a large number of high-quality grafts in a single session, making it cost-effective for patients needing extensive coverage.
