Many patients report positive experiences, highlighting the professionalism of the staff, the clarity of information provided, and the confidence they gained after their procedures. Testimonials often mention feeling comfortable throughout the process and being pleased with the natural-looking results.
However, some client reviews express dissatisfaction with the outcomes, citing issues such as uneven growth, the need for corrective procedures, and high costs. A few individuals have reported that their results did not meet expectations or that they experienced complications. Despite these mixed reviews, Bosley remains a prominent name in hair restoration, with a significant history of performing procedures and a broad network of locations across the United States.
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.
