• First, I tried Rogaine, no significant result and I don't like the feel it makes after spraying it on my head. So, I stop trying.
• I visited a Chinese traditional medicine doctor in Oakland, California whom published a hair-loss ad on a Chinese newspaper. The result was minimal. It was at best stopping the hair loss, not very effective in hair re-growth. It cost almost $100 for every 2 two weeks.
• I tried a program I heard from an AM radio news station. If you ever listen to an AM radio news station, you will hear variety of hair re-growth advertisements by different companies one time or the other. I decided to give it a try. After shelling out about $250, I received a bottle of Rogaine, some so called DHT blocking shampoo and some vitamin pills. Well, as it turned out, not very effective, my hair just kept falling out.
• After that I tried another similar program, it consisted of special shampoo and conditioner as well as vitamin pills. I don't remember which company makes the product, just vaguely remember it is located in a city north of the Golden Gate Bridge. I actually persisted with this program several months spending over $100 a month, and in the end, I was disappointed just like the previous treatments I tried.
• I saw another ad in a Chinese newspaper selling a hair re-growth tonic promising a quick and inexpensive solution. For about $50 a bottle, I got a nice hair brush too, but as you guess it: just another complete waste of money.
• After that, I found a traditional Chinese recipe for hair loss treatment. I went to Chinatown in San Francisco and bought the required ingredients in a Chinese herbs store and bought a big bottle of Brandy wine at CostCo. Following the instruction, I poured some Brandy into a glass jar and mix it with the herbs. Let it sat for a week or two and starting rubbing my head with the tonic twice a day. I did this for more than a year. The result? more hair loss. But it at least made my hair looked stronger instead of limpsy.  

Learning for the previous experience, I know that most of the advertisements out there are useless. I decided to take a look at what Bosley Medical and Hair Club have to offer for hair loss since I remembered I saw their infomercials many times on TV. I didn't look to them because I thought they were very expensive. But I was desperate, so I made an appointment with both companies.

However, they both turned out not very suitable to me. The advisor at Bolsey Medical was very nice.  He explained how hair transplantation works and how much it cost to have the procedures done. I knew it right there that this option is out of my reach even if I want to do it. The treatment works by taking strands of your hair in the back of your head (which usually is not affected by hair loss) and transplant them to the bald area. They will sew up the scalp where strands of hair were taken for transplantation so that it is not visible. The consultation is free as well as the gift shampoo kit which consisted of a bottle of Rogaine, shampoo, conditioner and a nice comb. I believe their treatment works for somebody, but not in my case, at least not now.

Next I had an appointment with Hair Club. When I arrived at their office, they made me wait outside the lobby. I found a big, thick binder filled with testimonials of people who are satisfied with Hair Club's solution to their hair loss problems. After flipping through several pages, I got very excited about what they can do for me. After about 15 minutes wait, a consultant came out and led me to another room to watch a short video about Hair Club. At least 20 minutes later after I finished watching the video, the consultant return and took me to her office. There she took a picture of my head and told me about their treatment program. I don't remember the exact cost, but it was close to $2,000 to have the procedure done and about $75 once a month maintenance fee. Basically they will make a special wig which matches the color of my hair.

They claim their technique will make the hair piece looked very alike of your own hair. I was debating whether I should go ahead with their treatment since I believe this is the only way to go and it's cheaper than hair transplantation. I asked if they can let me see a real client and they agreed. So I return the next day and met with a guy they said just had the first maintenance done after the first treatment. I was surprise the guy was pretty young, I think he should be in his early 20s. He showed me his head and I really couldn't tell that he was bald and the hair looked very natural. I was convinced I should use their treatment but I was still not comfortable with the cost. So, I told the consultant that I need some time to think over it. When I got home I sent her an email asking if they could reduce the periodic maintenance cost, but I never gotten an answer back from her. Now when I think of it, I feel very fortunate that she did not budge on my demand.

While I was still debating whether or not I should go with the Hair Club solution, I saw a hair re-growth ad on a Chinese newspaper. I had seen the ad many times among other hair loss treatment ads before, but I thought it was just another bogus claim to take people's money. However, this time, I was too desperate and the ad claimed to refund the money if there was no result after three months into the treatment and the consultation is free. So, I decided to find out what this program was all about. That was in late August 2003.

The company was located in San Francisco and I had moved to Elk Grove, CA which is about 1 and half hour drive. I decided to give them a call to get more information. A lady (Linda) picked up the phone and I told her my situation. I have to say she is very knowledgeable on the hair loss subject. Following her suggestion I took a few pictures of my head using my digital camera and emailed them to her. She told me I should definitely give her treatment a try. For the amount of money I was willing to spend I could get back some real hair instead of a wig and besides there is a money back guarantee in writing if there is no result after three months, so I decided to give it a try.

I drove to San Francisco and visited Linda for the free consultation. To make a long story short, after starting the treatment in Late August 2003, what happened in the following several months is nothing short of amazing. I started to notice more hair on my head the 2nd month into the treatment. On the new year's day January 1st, 2004, a couple, whom are our very closed friends came to visit us. They live in San Francisco and want to see our new home which my wife and I bought in July 2003. After some chic-chatting and shopping at the Arden Fair mall, the wife of the couple said to me that there was something different about me but didn't quite know what it was. I gave her a hint: "Look at my head...". She and her husband were amazed. They finally remembered I was pretty bald not that long ago.

After see the exciting result of the treatment I decide to share this with sohosos.com visitors who might also suffer hair loss problems. And Linda is very receptive to my suggestion. I like to share my experience because I am sick and tired of the bogus claims out there which take your hard earned money without producing any significant results. Of course, results can be different on different people since everybody's hair loss case can be different. Even for me, the top of the head is the hardest to grow back, but there is significant improvement for me.

OK, I know you are anxious to know which company I am referring to. The name is Bioscor International (USA). Linda Liu works in the San Francisco branch in California, United States. She just had her branch's website completed. Go to her website now to find out what her company is all about and what she and Bioscor International can do for you. They also have treatment for skin problems. Bioscor has been in the business for more than 10 years. Bioscor International has offices across the world. Linda said many famous movie stars and singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan have benefited from her treatment.

Some of you might have already known about Bioscor and may be a client yourself as well. I did some research on the Internet about Bioscor. There are some pretty subjective opinions out there regarding Bioscor, but as in my case, it really works! At least for now. Not sure if I will keep the hair from falling again though. Linda said the key is maintenance. If you decide to visit her office for a free consultation, I encourage you to  make a request to see my (Kenny Lee) pictures taken before and after the treatment. You are also welcome to contact me to discuss about my hair re-growth treatment and how you can benefit too.

"But what about the cost?" You might ask. If you think the treatment is expensive, considering the money you might have thrown away with other useless treatments, and with Linda's three-month money back guarantee, it is definitely worth a try.
