You assume to know everything that goes in the background, and you’re saying no way this is possible, unless the intent in malicious.
» Er…no. The other reputable clinics do this routinely. When the patient

» apples to apples comparison. This is easy, and s.o.p., for so many
» reputable clinics. It is far from wishful thinking.
Err… no. A lot of time after pics are from patients. They don’t wear the hair the exact way as before HT. This was more in respone to hannging who keeps complaining, the hair was short before but long after HT.

Well what silly is you pretending to know everthing. Reputable HT clinics are not in all cities. A lot of times people try to get a pre-op assessment during their business or personal travels. I tried to schedule one such appointment in the last minute, I couldn’t meet with Doctor, but just met with counsular. Since it was after their typical hour of pre-op assessment the photographer was not there, and I DID NOT get shots taken. The protocols followed by Clinics are not universal, it’s just what fits their needs.

Figure of speech, that means people are different. Some plan well in advance, so do it in the last second, some are smart, some get $cammed, some are privat, some are open book… what not.

Anyone with camera can take photos, sometimes you just do with what you’ve got at the time.
» None of these explanations add up.
If you don’t want to give the benefit of doubt, and call the intention as malicous, nothing will add up. However, I have seen many other Armani pics, and I don’t remember many with wet before pics. I’m more than willing to look at this as a honest mistake, however you’re not.

My girlfriend is a dental assistant, when they’re understaffed, she been asked to do many dental prep work for which she has not had complete training. But you know everything!

Err… no. You’re just assuming he made up the number. An exprienced poster can always put a good ball park number on the posts, but you’re just saying he is making it up, and trying to make him look bad. He is a known entity here, but you’re unknown. You can question people, but do it in polite way, if you come here and post assuming the worst, you’ll have no respect here! You have none my mine, not that it matters.
