Long Hair Center has conducted the most intricate astroturfing operation on this subreddit. They are never recommended, but for those who still consider them despite our warnings: A whole ring of accounts providing convincing posts and post histories have been caught. Avoid this unethical clinic.
They really put a lot of effort into it, and likely hired a internet marketing/astroturfing company.
Many accounts with multiple years long post histories with post in other subreddits.
Long written out posts which are pretty convincing. Not using the same dumb hyperbolic language that is a dead giveaway, even including some very mild and minor critiques.
I removed a network of them, but who knows how many more are out there.
Ethics absolutely matters. There are many and multiple areas where ethical considerations can hurt a patient even with a skilled surgeon. Do they purchase the right medium for grafts, or just use saline. Do they take their time with the punchouts to minimize transection, or do they have technicians go faster, increasing the transection rate to 5,10,15,20,25, etc percent, destroying your priceless limited grafts because it's no cost to them and they get to save money on hourly technician wages. I can write a much longer post on this as I have in the past.
More details.
Mills are never recommended but I see people on this subreddit consider them all the time. Well, if it helps in your decision, this particular mill, like Vera clinic and Blue Magic Group, and others, post fake reviews.
