I was told that I haven’t lost enough hair to fill in the highlighted areas where I’ve been balding (see outline of my thinning). Do I need to loose more hair to become a better candidate? I consulted two clinics about the number of grafts for my hairline. One said 2000 the other said 2500-2800. […]

I have written extensively on SMP, and it has its limitations: (1) there are significant variables results due to the operator’s skills, (2) variable results due to inks used, (3) fades and changes over time, especially when exposed to sun. SMP works great when used with a hair transplant, as the SMP background impact makes […]
This man will have to take a second pass at the transplant, this time with a better surgeon. 2000 grafts should have filled his frontal hairline reasonably well. Also, note that the hairs are pointing to the sides, like the spokes of a wheel. This is a common mistake made by surgeons that seem to […]
The clinics told me that your transplanted hairs are not sensitive to DHT, but I hear everyone here many people saying that these hairs can also fall out, is this correct? Transplanted hairs from the donor area are protected against DHT and balding; however, your native hair is not and if you have any miniautirzed […]
It changed my life! I hear comments like yours all of the time. Men often spend too much of their time worrying about their hair. Once a good hair transplant takes hold, me a freed up and forget their balding because it is a nightmare of the past.
If these all become necrotic, then this man has a problem as there will be scars in these “Black” places, some of which I pointed to with a white arrow, but there are many other black areas as well.
I have now been able to remove all the scabs. I hope you didn’t pick them off. Picking at scabs too early can cause a loss of the graft. Picking also causes folliculitis. Proper washing of the recipient area is the solution to obtain a clean look after a hair transplant.
If you have money for transplants, is there a reason you would still have a balding head or fully bald? Hulk Hogan’s son, for example, could easily afford a transplant but never did and eventually went bald. I also know a lot of balding rich people, even younger ones. This is a great question. Some […]
Is it worth giving up minoxidil before a hair transplant to ensure all new hair isn’t minoxidil-dependent? I only want to have a transplant once in my life, I’d like to avoid going back in a few years once my min-dependent hair has faded. Hair grown with minoxidil requires that you stay on it. I tell […]
A 30-year-old man contacted me for surgery. As usual, I had him purchase a hand microscope and a micrometer. We went on Zoom, where he took control of his hand microscope. First, we used the micrometer. He measured his donor hairs (about 20 of them), and they ranged from 30 microns to 91 microns, averaging […]
Most failed hair transplants are technically created by a team of people working on you without a good quality control process in place. That reflects the surgeon, who is Master of the Ship and responsible for what his team should be doing. I have found many surgeons who don’t understand the nuances of the hair […]
The new law in Turkay is that if you perform hair transplantation and are not a licensed doctor (plastic surgeon, dermatologist, or medical esthetic certified doctor (you will be sentenced to 1-3 years of imprisonment, and all health institutions that provide space to them or rent operating rooms to them will pay a penalty of […]
You are heading to a Full Norwood Class 7 pattern of balding and, therefore, must plan accordingly because you, I am sure, are expecting to live a long time and will always want to look normal and hairy. I have transplanted many men like you, but first, I want to determine your donor supply and […]
I’m tensed. So, please help me out . I had a HT 5 months back. I have been on finasteride 1 mg even before HT(for 8 months). Also, started minoxidil after 3 months of HT. I’m noticing hairball when it should have been stopped. My growth has been less. I still can see the gap […]
Can you please expand on what you mean by saying hair transplants accelerate balding, especially in younger men? Thank you Younger men often don’t see their final pattern, but it is often there if they look through a hand microscope and see a lot of miniaturization present. A hair transplant causes many of these miniaturized […]
