I’m 28 and have been on fin for just over 2 years. My hairloss was very slow and minor so it’s kept it completely stable. I do however feel my hair whorl is more prominent than it should be though and have been looking into micropigmentation as apparently it’s very good for something incredibly minor […]
I’ve heard of new “DPI” hair transplants that are supposed to look even more natural. Does anybody have any opinions? I heard the biggest advantage is the density you can achieve with a low graft count. I just want to reconstruct my temples (I am 25 and they are just starting to go). If I […]
An FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) is a surgical procedure and as such it should always be looked at it that way. Fortunately, when I initially described and published this technique in 2002, I called it a ‘minimally invasive hair transplant’ because it did not take on the risks of the then standard Strip Surgery (FUT) […]
Here is a picture of the donor area of a man who asked me: How much donor hair do I have? He asks: You have talked about the Donor Bank in your writings, so I would like to know how many grafts are in my Donor Bank and what will be my lifetime supply of […]
A young man, about 30, went to 5 different doctors, and each performed a hair transplant. He changed doctors because the surgery failed each time, so he thought he would find a better doctor. He has well over 7,000 grafts after six surgeries. The last and final surgery brought him to a doctor who performed […]
Thank you for the baldingblog. The answers you’ve give over the years are a very valuable resource for patients before, during and after hair transplants. It’s now 9 weeks after my FUE. My recipient area is very red and incision marks are all visible. The color and texture of the recipient area improved until the […]
Here’s a snippet from that article — “Hipster beards are no longer confined to the streets of Brooklyn, N.Y. — they have made their way into the mainstream as actors, politicians, athletes and other men are sporting their own scruff. That’s giving some follicularly challenged men enough serious beard envy to seek a facial hair […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest — Whose stem cells are they anyway? It seems like nearly every day I am asked, “When will we have stem cells to grow our hair?” The author of the above editorial published in New Scientist earlier this month wonders about regulating our own cells. Unfortunately, the FDA […]
I’ve answered a related question years ago — Transgender Male-to-Female Taking Dutasteride. As you aren’t my patient, I am unable to give you specific dosing advice on how to use the various drugs which have an anti-androgen effect. This treatment for balding may not work at all if you triggered the hair loss when you […]
I really can not answer your question properly. First, I have not examined you so I can not confirm what you are reporting. Second, if you are losing your donor hair, then you probably have some condition that is not genetic patterned balding. Do you have diffuse unpatterned alopecia (DUPA)? It’s not usual to have […]
If you are one of our patients, you should come in for a visit when you are in the US, or send me a photograph and then we can speak over the phone. Yes, there are treatments for very red scars that persist for long periods of time such as topical steroids. Their chronic use, […]
Maybe you are missing the point. We (at least here at NHI) do not recommend hair transplants to patients who are at risk for significant shock loss, but some hair loss will occur that is inevitable with or without any medication. There will also be some form of nerve damage with surgery (both strip and […]
We can hope that this will happen. Knowledge is increasing logarithmically, so whatever breakthroughs we have seen in the past 10 years should be 10 times that number. There is work going on in cloning and the financial rewards are certainly there to make the required breakthrough. This means to me that something will happen […]
Nothing is that simple. Hair transplants (while permanent) are not the only answer. Did you know that you can have irreversible acceleration of the genetic hair loss from hair transplants? This is especially true if you are rapidly and actively thinning and if you are in your early 20s. Another reason is that everybody’s goals […]
