Get Pictures of Before and After, Bosley Patients
When it comes to cosmetic procedures people want to see before and after pictures before they make their decision. This article provides great links to multiple Bosley galleries.
The Bosley Medical group has performed more hair transplant procedures than any other medical group in the world. Bosley patients have had permanent hair restoration in all 50 states and more than 67 foreign countries.
Bosley has also pioneered every major advancement in the hair transplantation field for the past 30 years.
Bosley provides permanent hair restoration for both men and women as well as eyebrow restoration, enhancement and touch-up.
Though hair transplantion is the only permanent solution to hair loss there are other solutions for very early stage hair loss. The Bosley LaserComb is one of only a few FDA approved or accepted treatments for hair loss and the single medical device.

Given Bosley has performed more hair transplant procedures than any other medical group, there are many patient testimonials, before and after pictures and interactives that illustrate restored hairlines that are virtually undetectable and completely natural looking.
Natural looking hairlines have fewer, finer hairs toward the front of the head with thicker and larger groupings of hairs toward the back. These groupings of hairs are called follicular units and can range from 1-4 hairs. Groupings grow randomly and in multiple directions.
Naturalness is created by Bosley physicians carefully selecting follicular units from the donor area (sides and back of the head). The units are then skillfully and artistically placed in multiple directions with finer hairs toward the front and thicker hairs toward the back to create a natural and virtually undetectable hairline.
Classifications of hair loss in men and women are different but the treatment is similar. In men the Norwood Scale is used while the Ludwig Scale is used for women. The Bosley Patient Gallery features men and women with varying classes of initial hair loss and their results after permanent hair restoration.
This gallery is interactive with videos and email access to some Bosley patients. Visit the Bosley Celebrity Corner to view celebrities that had permanent hair restoration and their results afterward.
The first step toward learning more about hair loss and available solutions is to order a free DVD and Guide Book or to schedule a free, private consultation with a Bosley Senior Counselor at one of 70 locations throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
Remember to check the Norwood scale to see what class of hair loss you have. The before and after picture gallery will help.
Stimulus Refi information for Burbank, Glendale, Pasadena
February 20, 2009
The new stimulus package is offering a variety of incentives and helpful initiatives to stop the slide in home prices while allowing people to refinance their mortgages.
The most up-to-date stimulus and loan modification information for Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena:
1. Loans will become more affordable by providing access to lower cost refinancing to homeowners that are responsible and suffering from a sharp decline in home values
*This new plan can allow 4-5 million homeowners to refinance. These new incentives are helped by mortgage rates lower than they’ve been since the Depression.
Currently, most people are unable to refinance because 20% equity in the home is required. Very few people have this today. The administration will be assisting homeowners who took out conforming loans that are guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
Refinancing with a much lower rate can reduce payments significantly.
2. Greater stability will be created for 3-4 million homeowners who are currently considered “at risk”
*Many responsible homeowners have seen their mortgage payments rise significantly, quickly becoming unaffordable. With the new stimulus help, those who agree to make reasonable monthly payments will be able to stay in their homes. There are qualifying guidelines.
The new stimulus plan does not assist speculators or those who simply wanted to flip homes for profit.
The plan helps to stop the slide in home prices by preventing foreclosures and the damage that occurs to the entire neighborhood.
Contrary to some reports, the loan modifications are available to households where foreclosure is imminent but they have not yet missed a payment.
The plan calls for clear and consistent loan modification guidelines. Banks receiving Federal assistance are required to implement loan modification programs consistent with the guidance of the Treasury.
3. Low interest rates will continue as the Fed continues to purchase mortgage backed securities, building further confidence in Fannie and Freddie
**Difficulty has been reported in gaining assistance for loan modifications. Long waits, hang-ups, endless faxing of paperwork that leads nowhere. For immediate loan modification assitance use the phone number and form below.

Before and After Pictures and Videos, Bosley Medical
Bosley offers a variety of before and after photos and videos for those with male and female pattern hair loss. This article describes the Bosley procedure in detail but also includes a complete video documentary of a Bosley patient’s experience with permanent hair restoration.

“It took the youth right out from underneath me and made me feel like a much older man.” By the age of 32, Torrance had already been losing his hair for nearly ten years.
”If I truly assess my whole life the only thing that is really missing in the equation is my hair”. Torrance is an avid athlete who plays in a football league, does yoga and also lifts weights at the gym. Not to mention, Torrance played professional basketball in Vienna, Austria, modeled and even did TV shows and commercials.
Torrance tried many solutions to hair loss and eventually opted for a permanent hair restoration solution from Bosley.
Bosley hair transplantation is a remarkably simple outpatient procedure that can be divided into 5 general steps:
1. The Procedure Plan-This is where specific goals and a plan for the procedure are confirmed between doctor and patient.
2. Anesthesia and Removal of the Donor Hair-A local anaesthetic is used at the sides and back of the head, where the donor strip is removed. The donor area is then sutured, leaving a very fine, thin scar that is easily concealed by remaining hair.
3. Follicular unit separation-The skilled surgical staff begins dividing the follicular units, which contain groupings of 1-4 hairs.
4. Preparing the recipient sites-While the surgical staff continues to separate the follicular units, local anesthesia is given in the recipient area where the grafts will be placed. These recipient sites are created by hand with specific depth, angle and location. It is this skill and artistry that creates a perfectly natural looking hairline.
5. Graft Placement-Placement of grafts is done one at a time, with smaller groupings of 1-2 hairs toward the front and larger groupings of 3-4 hairs in the top and back.
More information on Bosley permanent hair restoration is available by calling 1-800-985-6405, by requesting a free DVD and information kit or by scheduling a free, private consulation with a Bosley Senior Counselor.
Featured below is a slide show documentary of Bosley patient, Torrance, who is now 32 and began losing his hair about 10 years ago.
Search engine placement has changed drastically since our case study with Google in 2004. The problem with the vast majority of marketing is that it is not only too expensive but it also doesn't work. Our methods are radically different, an avant-garde approach that not only brings business to our vendors but also eliminates the confusion of on-line search results.
