Josh Crose was very friendly and professional. I had a hair transplant done with him early 2022, and while I’m not quite at my peak results, the improvement is and… read more has been massive. It will only get better as well. It’s a significant improvement over my NW2/NW3 baseline. I had about 1600 FUE grafts done manually with a 0.9mm WAW (the best way from what I gather in the hair transplant industry atm) , starting early in the day around 7 in the morning and finishing around 4 in the afternoon. I was given a mild sedative, so I was in a slight daze throughout the whole thing as well as going in and out of sleep. Not painful but there were small pinches, remedied with additional numbing. Everything relating to the procedure itself was done well. Crose did the extractions and incisions for the insertions himself (which is law, a doctor has to do that). Great care was taken for the donor area, no overharvesting of grafts, all extraction punches healed quickly within a week. Hairline design was age and ethnically appropriate (flat hairlines will look terrible on many guys, should have some curvature). It should look good now and in decades from now. Single hair grafts for make up the hairline, multi hair grafts for density. Everything was done top notch and just as well as any other top clinic in America. Shout out to the technicians who helped count the grafts and insert the grafts after Crose’s incisions, they were professional and excellent at what they do, technicians are important piece too. PRP is also included apart of the transplant, which was the hardest part of the whole procedure as I don’t like blood being drawn. All in all, definitely worthwhile checking Crose out, not too far away from the Bay Area either, so I think he should be considered for anyone based in Northern California. Sidenote on some things: You may see a lot of services are offered on the website, which could be seen as a red flag. Ideally hair transplant clinics should focus only on hair transplants, I agree completely. He runs the clinic with his wife, who performs most if not nearly all of those beauty cosmetic procedures, like fillers, botox, skincare, etc… I do know that by this point in time, Crose has been doing hair transplants for years, and has tons of transplants under his belt, so while he’s a “newer” doctor in this space, he is plenty experienced and knows what will look like what years after the procedure. He wasn’t a plastic surgeon who decided to do nose jobs on Mondays then hair transplants on Tuesdays. Attached is a pic of my 9 month checkup. Final results will of course be even better, but it allows you to get an idea of the improvement.
