Hi man, sorry for the late response,
it would be awesome to talk to you
is it possible to send a private message in this forum?
Hello folks, I'm new here. I'm going to Korea in the next two weeks at Dr. Song's clinic (JOGAK). I will update you about all the details after undergoing the surgery! I am so excited and looking forward to it. Greetings from Belgium
For anyone who wants to know, this is how im looking 2 months after my surgery at LPS in LA with Dr. Hsu. Fully healed, no pain, everything feels great and normal like my own head that was always there. Getting haircut now is easy and don’t have to style my hair in a way to cover the flatness because its gone. Scar is not visible through my hair at all. Maybe only under harsh light close up, but it doesn’t show. Feeling very confident, and this issue is no longer on my mind. Figured Id stop by here and leave an update for everyone.
Looking forward to seeing your results. You an I have been lurking on this form for quite a while and i'm happy that at least one of us finally pulled the trigger. if you don't mind me asking, what made you go with LPS, is it convince of them being based in US? I'm in two minds between travelling from UK to either LPS or Dr. Song. I'm leaning towards Dr. Song because of his experience with this surgery having done like 15,000 or so, but LPS being in an English speaking country would be great too but i feel like they don't have as much experience seeing as tp how they do other procedures, whereas as Dr, Song primarily does this. You seem like someone who does their research thoroughly before committing, so i was just curious why you opted for them over Dr. Song. I'm not too worried about the pricing of LPS, just want the best work done.
Congrats bro. You've helped me and i'm sure many others by telling us your journey. Hopefully you keep posting updates in the future to see how it holds up.
Got another haircut today 2 months post op.
I am VERY pleased with the results of Dr HSU at LPS in LA. This might be my final post on here, as the problem is resolved for me. Lastly, I wish to tell anyone who is currently in this thread, or to anyone who may stumble upon it; there is a resolution and a fix to this defect. If you have doubts, dont think too much or you will talk yourself out of it. Im glad I had this procedure, I can put this nightmare to an end and live the rest of my life happier with my new appearance!

Wow looks like my reply to you got deleted. My reason for not going to Korea is because my country is still on the suspended list and it would be incredibly difficult for me to get a visa as I am already currently really busy. I've heard about people enrolling in classes in Korea so they can have an excuse to issue a visa and then dropping out later, that would already cost me the same if I go to LA. Plus there's no definite date when visa-free flights will be available again and I have to tie my hair up every day soon which would make it really hard to hide the flatness.
Sadly price increased and just like someone else in this forum, I was also quoted $9500.
Yes, You are right. The pricing of LPS is higher but they seem to very reputable surgery and it wouldn't be an issue paying that little extra. However, in my case its their experience with this particular surgery that i have doubts over. Plus the fact i have to spend at least 2 weeks in LA (from uk) make the hotel and AirBnb any here close to the surgery way overpriced like (2.5K). Will you be facing the same issue with the hotel?
I did a lot of research to compare the total prices aswell (Seoul, Jogak vs LA, LPS). Besides LPS ist 2-3k$ more it looks for me like LA Hotels/Airbnb are WAY MORE expensive too. Cant find anything affordable except these rooms with several beds where I've read a lot of bad things about. As much as I want to get this surgery done soon (in May, LPS already agreed with the surgery date etc), I think its better to not rush this whole procedure. I trust Dr. Hsu to achieve a good result, but I doubt that the outcome could be better than Dr Song performing it. And Jogak would be like 2-3k$ cheaper overall. I wont get boostered/get a 3rd vaccination, so I still would have to do that stupid quarantine in Seoul which ruins my plans atm. Looks like I need to stay patient. Happy for everyone going for it in the next weeks regardless at which clinic - excited for their results!
I have 2 free weeks in august so I took that as a chance to finally get it done. And yeah hotel and airbnbs are incredibly expensive if you want privacy so I'll just suck it up and stay in a private room.
Just another question regarding the scar: has anyone ever seen a picture of a scar (balded / very short hair) and can post it here please? Or maybe one of your own if you already had the surgery?
Just want to make sure it does not look too big/noticeable when you dont have hair. Could not find any yet. Many thanks!

Is there anyone else who had their head surgery done at LPS? I was planning to have it done with Dr. song in Korea and after seeing the results of donewithit2021, I am leaning more towards LPS. Greatly appreciate it if anyone can share their results. Thanks in advance.
