Dr Gho Patient Diary
Hey Dr R.
i jave a question about your opinion on Gho. Recently there has been a very well documented case from a patient, with obvious donor regneration.
Link: Hairsite
I think that this is the real deal because this patient has no incentives to lie and he provides close up donor pictures.
He was also said by other clinics that he has only around 2500 available grafts. Gho extracted already 1400 and the next time this patient is gonna get 1400 additional Grafts extracted.
Also this patient has scarring alopecia.
Oh, I can’t wait to see some of the vitriol that is sent my way for this one. These pictures are confusing and do not tell the full story of what was done. I am sorry, but what is presented here does not move me to believe anything had occurred other than a nicely done FUE with healing. When I watched Dr. Gho do his thing (on video) at the Amsterdam ISHRS meeting, I thought he was performing a partial FUE, leaving some of the hairs behind.
He obviously has supporters (I received basically the same email half a dozen times), but this doesn’t change my opinion as previously stated.
Dr. Rassman I am also skeptical of HST I would be interested to know if any of your colleagues who attended the presentation in Amsterdam had any opinions on Dr. Gho’s procedure regarding it’s efficacy.
Dear Dr. Rassman,
please explain why this is “confusing”. The regrowth is quite evident.. why are you still not convinced?
Regards
If you can tell me which photos you want I’m sure I can do it. I am the patient involved here and to be frank I would love for other doctors to see that this works and to take up Dr Gho’s offer. I have no incentive at all, but when you know something to be true and others are doubting it (which is fair enough let me add), then it gives you determination to make others see the truth.
Perhaps it isn’t as black and white as that, but let’s just imagine for 1 minute that what Gho is saying is true (which I know for sure). Surely you would want to get involved in this if donor regeneration is min 80% with no donor splitting and the recipient is growing lets say 90-99%, if that is the case surely you’d be interested, am I right?
If I am, let’s go, tell me what you want to see and I’m fairly sure I can show you.
If you see what you want to see, will that make any difference? From what I understand Gho is charging $50USD, seems cheap if you ask me. If you were the first doctor in USA to take this up, then you wouldn’t be able to cope with demand and probably charge what you want.
$50,000USD I meant to put.
FUE = FUE = FUE. The best place for documenting unusual/atypical/successful approaches is the scientific literature, not pictures on blogs (the best example of this is Dr Umar, who has published several outstanding peer-reviewed scientific papers on body hair transplant in leading journals, which has added credence to this previously criticized technique).
If you want to call FUE with donor regrowth = FUE, then that is fine with me, but regaular FUE vs FUE with donor regrowth has got to be a good thing right?
@BiotechMD:
Mind you, Gho has published several peer-reviewed scientific papers.
Dr Rassman,
with all due respect. You simply discredit these images by saying they are “confusing”. Please explain in more detail why you feel these images are confusing?

Thank you for correction of my prior comment. I am a big fan of letting data speak for itself. Some of Dr Gho’s peer-reviewed scientific articles can be found at:
