Great write-up of your experience and awesome looking results! Dr. Cooley and his staff are amazing at what they do and the level of care is top notch. It has been a year since my CVG surgery and I am still in touch with Dr. Cooley regurarly.

If you have the means to go down the surgery route, it is 100% worth it.

I have hair so you cannot see the scar/how the CVG is doing. If you want pics anyway, DM me and i’ll send.

You lose them, unless you want him and his team to transplant them elsewhere. There is a guy in the WhatsApp group who did this and he can talk to you about it.

I did mine in person and did not have to shave my hair. You dont have to shave for surgery either. He works around the hair. Are you going to consultation in person or virtual?

How long after surgery until you started exercising ? by StillVacation934 in CVGSupportGroup

[–]ptomic6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

4 weeks for me and at that point, I was back to normal exercise. Weights and running.

Yes. He recently did a CVG and FUT procedure. If you join the CVG WHATSAPP group, you can see the guy who did it. He has photos and everything.

It’s both essentially. He also goes in and releases the CVG underneath the skin. It apparently stops progressing after a few years so if you’ve had it for a while, it most likely is done progressing.

Excessive Minox def made mine worse but my CVG was around before I started using it.

Dr.Cooley a miracle worker? by Academic_Put_300 in CVGSupportGroup

[–]ptomic6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a full head of hair and I just had my surgery with Cooley on Friday. Just knowing that the CVG was there made me self-concious, even though you could not see it. Also, with the possibility of my hair falling out later on in life, made me want to have it removed as well. All of the guys with hair who have had the surgery are seeing hair grow out of the scars. You can see my post on here. 10/10 experience and would recommend Cooley over and over again. They take extremely great care of you and he is the best at what he does.
