Everyone is different. A 2.3 density suggests you have more hair in the donor area than many people, and with coarse hair you may be able to cover an extensive pattern. But for those with fine hair, it may not be enough to cover a class 6 or 7 balding pattern. I have many patients […]

That seems like awfully too many hair transplant surgeries. Added to that, if you are still considering having more surgeries it sends a huge red flag. I read your requests and it seems a bit too drastic, but also note that I do not know your history or even know your ultimate expectations (as 8 […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Doctor Uses Robotic Arm To Perform Hair Transplant This new technology will make follicular unit extraction (FUE) more popular and easier for most doctors, but it will not likely drive the cost of a hair transplant down as the robotic Artas® system is quite expensive for the […]
Here’s a direct link to the patient you’re referencing (the description says the patient is 20 years old and the after photo was taken 9 months post) — here. The before picture does show significant frontal balding worthy of a hair transplant under the right circumstances. The maturity of the patient and his ability to […]
Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP) may be a good option, but only for certain hair colors and people with specific goals that can be met with this solution. Everyone is different and the goals for some people who will accept the SMP solution may not satisfy others. You must always consider the progressive nature of hair loss […]
Based on pictures alone, Prince William would likely be a great candidate for a hair transplant. We have treated many men with even more hair loss than he shows. Here’s an open letter to the royal: Dear Prince William, It would be an honor if you would consider having NHI establish a Master Plan for […]
The training of a hair transplant technician is done only by doctors who are looking for new people and are willing to take on a trainee. Most people come from a medical assistant school and most states certify MAs, although the doctor can do the training in specific cases. You need to contact a hair […]
Controversy surrounding Propecia’s side effects are nothing more than circumstantial and hearsay. I realize most of you reading BaldingBlog are smart or savvy enough to use the Internet to conduct your research and form opinions. What some people seem to be missing though is that the Internet is not the source of medical information for […]
A quick fix is never the answer, and at such a young age a hair transplant can accelerate more hair loss. You should see a hair transplant doctor to get his/her opinion. I’m certainly not suggesting you have the surgery right now, but your doctor should come up with a Master Plan for treating your […]
There’s been rumors circulating for years in the gossip rags that Nicolas Cage had a hair transplant, but until he comes out and says one way or the other, it’s just speculation. I honestly don’t know when his loss started, how it progressed, or what his goals are/were. Actors will commonly have high end hairpieces/wigs […]
There are talks and unsupported reports that ACell can speed up the hair transplant healing process and help the REGULAR transplanted hair follicles to grow better/faster. This has yet to be proven satisfactorily, as far as I know. If you want to pay the extra cost of the ACell to be incorporated in a hair […]
I believe there is confusion with respect to the NHI surgical fees. That pricing applies to traditional strip surgeries performed by us in our Los Angeles office. The standard fee is $6 per graft up to 2500 grafts. Anything beyond 2500 grafts would be charged at $2.50 starting with the 2501st graft. So graft #1-2500 […]
Many of my patients have hairline transplants. Actually, the great majority of my patients that have hair transplants have hairline changes! I always caution the young men (under 25 years old) that many hairline changes occur with maturation of the hairline, which is often mistaken for early hair loss. The most important thing we need […]
How long were you on Propecia prior to the surgery? Have you considered that you have continued to lose your native (non-transplanted) hair and now are left with just the transplanted hair? It would sort of be a one-to-one trade off. Unfortunately, you will continue to lose more of your native hair even with Propecia. […]
As long as you and your doctor have realistic goals in mind, and you have the donor hair available to do it, anytime would be a viable time if you are serious about a hair transplant. Please see our hundreds of before and after pictures for some examples (there are Norwood 6 cases in there) […]
