Do Celebrities Have Access to Hair Loss Cures?

Dear Doc.

Once again a question about Matthew Mcconaughey’s hair. I know people have different views on his regrowth. If he’s using a hair piece or have had a transplant. He’s claiming to use Regenix. He must be paid by them. Because if Regenix can cure hair loss like that, the company would be one of the richest companies in the world. Must be fake. I’ve seen the pictures and there’s no doubt he have done something with his hair! He said it himself at Letterman; I was balding. So something has happened.

Do the rich and famous have a secret club of doctors who can make them grow hair again??!! I have never seen such regrowth at a “normal” person. Or do they just have the money to have endless hair transplants. What is your opinion on all the famous people getting regrowth as never seen before? Transplants? Hair piece or what?

I would easy pay 50.000$ to see such a regrowth!

Best regards

No matter how much money you have, you cannot have endless hair transplant surgeries, because your hair will run out and eventually develop scarring one way or the other. Take a look at Donald Trump, for example, as it is widely believed that he had the old hair plug type surgeries from many years past. If that’s the case, he’s likely run out of donor hair and is now stuck with his trademark comb-forward/swirl/whatever hair style.

I’ve performed surgery on many celebrities and some of the richest people in the world, but I cannot give them endless amount of hair. The secret club sounds like it could be great fun, but alas, it isn’t the case.

With respect to celebrities (particularly those in movies or on TV), they are probably rich enough to afford top-of-the-line wigs and makeup artists to look good in public… but up close and personal, right out of the shower in the privacy of their own home, we will never know. A wig can look fantastic, but they can also be high maintenance and expensive. Some do opt to go the surgical route, of course. For celebrities that rely on looking good in front of the camera though, money is no object.

As for actor Matthew McConaughey’s mysterious hair growth years ago, he claimed it was Regenix, but I find it hard to believe. If I had to guess, I’d say hair transplant or wig. It’s been a few years since we’ve written about him, but here are some past posts:
