IAHRS is nothing more then a club surgeons pay into to be a part of. If you pay them enough money they will say you are IAHRS approved, its meaningless.

IAHRS is not a well respected organization, same with ISHRS, pay as you go kind of hair transplant club, most in the club don't even know how to do fue even though they claim they do.

As to why people are critical of Dr. Armani, I think it's because he is one of the only doctors i nthe world that offers larger Fue sessions, and with Fue being newer and not many clinics can do it right it makes him a target.

Whenever someone is either A- at the top of the mountaitn and B - does something different they will be attacked, and Dr. Armani is both.

You cannot argue with his results though,

Some people are critical of his hairlines saying they are aggressive, and some are probably jealous because they cannot duplicate the hairlines he is creating.

I believe I know the explanation already.

If you are concerned, worried, nervous, or have legitimate comments that perhaps are not rosy enough it is better if you don't post n the forum.

If on the other hand you have positive comments, praises and fantastic pictures this is your forum. Post away.


Am I wrong?


Come on guys, I thought were could interact in this forum freely....oh well.

Ciad was asked to recreate his post so the discussion could continue. The original thread was lost during a system archive.

Dal1999, if you do not like the way the forum is moderated you do not have to participate.

so only a few posts were lost during the archiving process right? So the posts were "lost" as you said before or "moderated" out of the thread? I am confused.


I want to participate, why would I register, post and even share my pictures with members if I didn't want to participate? I just didn't know there was a "particular" way to participate.

I am a patient and paid big bucks to have the procedure done... it is in my best interest to stay in the forum and also in the interest of existing and future members that want to share their experiences or are considering having it done.

I will explain this again, this is not the same thread. Ciad was asked to recreate the post yesterday so the topic can be discussed. This is a new post created by Ciad yesterday.

Some of it has to do with strip clinics not wanting FUE (a better technology) to take over the industry and making their practice obsolete. So they try and down play what Dr. Armani has already been doing for a few years now, producing real nice results with large FUE sessions.

I remember when Hasson and Wong first started doing 3,000 - 4,000 graft procedures with strip, everyone said it couldnt be done. They proved everyone wrong by consistantly doing it well. After a whille 3,000 - 4,000 grafts procedures became the norm. But Hasson and Wong took alot of heat when they first started claiming they could do it, why??? Because it was pushing the limits.

The same thing happened when Armani started doing larger FUE sessions 3 or 4 years back, people said it couldn't be done, but now he has been proving that it can. Now other clinics are starting to adapt to it to keep up with him, Feller, Cole etc....

Anytime you do something different or push the envelope you are going to be criticized to a point.

It was kind of funny to see Doctors at first like Dr. Feller claim that large Fue sessions weren't going to work, he was totally against it.

Then a year later he goes and invents a FUE tool that he sells claiming "his tool" makes it so anyone can do FUE, that his tool makes it simple!  Hhhhmmmmmm

Dan and Pats both had a great point. Jealousy for one. Dr. Armani sets the standard in both excellence and professionalism when it comes to transplantation. And of course, like Pats said, his advancement in the FUE technology. He made a great point by stating that his mastered work over FUE is downplayed by many due to the fact that his results could make the strip procedure obsolete. I can personally tell you that after having a mediocre strip surgery with another surgeon in Southern California, Dr. Armani sets the standard in excellence when it comes to transplants. My experience with FUE, both during the procedure, as well as waiting for my grafts to come in were nothing short of amazing. When I need more work done, I know where to go. It's a no brainer for me. When you're on the top, everyone wants to bring you down.

Dr.Armani wouldn't have strip discontinued in his clinic if he wasn't so confident about FUE.He would have had more good business if he offered FUSS as more patients would still opt it as it was cheaper comparatively.

Westside, I agree with you 100%.
I would also like to add that when I first started doing my research I read some of the same negative comments as well. I was fortunate to look beyond the comments and research all the top clinics. I decided on Armani, and I am Thankful for the positive impact it has had on my life.



It's been three years since I had my HT and I still "GOT MY SWAGGER"

I think it has to do with people being haters.  When people are jealous they begin to say bad things.  The good ones are always scrutinized in almost every business.
