Many celebrities have had hair transplant strip surgeries hidden under their long hair and from the photos I’ve seen circulating around the Internet it does seem like a hair transplant scar. I wonder if he knows it can be camouflaged with SMP? If not, someone should show him this post.

I am going to assume that you have fine hair. As you did not send pictures with this email, I went into our picture file and found two people who had fine hair and a single large session, one younger man has a single 3226 graft procedure with us and the second older man had […]
Dr. Rassman: Tattoo inks have been described as “remarkably nonreactive histologically”. However, cases of allergic reactions to tattoo inks, particularly certain colors, have been medically documented. This is sometimes due to the presence of nickel in an ink pigment, which triggers a common metal allergy which is fairly rare. Women may be more sensitive to […]
This patient would not allow me to show his pictures, but I will tell you in general what his “freaky” hair looked like. He had four scalp reductions (removal of bald scalp from the crown of the head) which left a scar down the middle of his head, and he had 4 partly failed transplants […]
Hair transplant doctors do not perform Scalp MicroPigmentation. They usually hire local cosmetic tattoo or tattoo specialist to work for them. As far as I know, only Dr. Pak performs SMP personally using our developed pigment and technique. Several prominent hair transplant doctors have come to have SMP on themselves by Dr. Pak which we […]
Diet can cause hair loss and if you lost too much weight too fast (this is what is sounds like). Extremes and stress on your body could be a cause of your hair loss. Caloric restriction in conjunction with a balanced diet is the way to lose weight and not lose your hair (assuming that […]
I do not know how to help you. You clearly had male pattern balding that was not complete and the chemotherapy stressed your fine, miniaturized hairs and finished the balding process in them. One of our patients had used the ‘Cold Cap’ when the took Chemotherapy and lost less than half of the hair. Few […]
This is a review of a hair transplant result performed at New Hair Institute by Dr. Jae Pak. This is a patient in his 60’s who looked 70’s before he had a hair transplant. His grey hair actually helped with the overall result. Grey hair on fair skin helps disguise the thinning by the low […]
The FDA regulates laser devices and the inks used to remove tattoos. Some Lasers have been cleared for use in tattoo removal. The FDA has cleared several types of lasers as light-based, prescription devices for tattoo removal. A Massachusetts company recently received FDA clearance to market its laser workstation for the removal of tattoos and […]
This question covers a lot of territory: 1- If there is generalized thinning over the entire head and you are a male and the thinning is in the side and back of your head as well, you might have a condition called Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA). This condition is not good news, and these patients […]
I often get similar questions asked about finasteride and minoxidil use with DUPA. They do not usually work. Hair transplants might work if the balding area is relatively small (like a Class 3 balding pattern). Using FUE, one can select the good hairs from the donor area and use them in the small recipient area. […]
Thank you for writing to us. When you call hair balding pattern a Class 6, I suspect you are talking about thinning, not complete balding. Women almost never develop complete balding. Depending on the degree of thinning, the one approach to a thinning pattern is Scalp Micropigmentation. Generally hair transplants for women are not productive […]
Scalp Micropigment is a permanent concealer similar to the temporary concealer like Toppik or Dermmatch. SMP goes on the scalp but Toppik and Dermmatch also goes on both the scalp and on the hair. Toppik and Dermmatch will make you hair “feel” thicker. SMP will not. But the overall coverage and cosmetic value will be […]
If you are looking at NHI for a consultation, then please call (800) NEW-HAIR or email hairdoc@newhair.com to set up a consultation. Or check out this POST Otherwise scar revision surgery and FUE transplants to the donor area scar is one of many options. Both of these may not work. Scar revisions often only reduce […]
Here is an example of what we did for someone who was missing a patch of hair on the temple. It is known as triangle alopecia. While we generally can treat this with hair transplant surgery, this patient wanted a non-surgical approach using the SMP Scalp MicroPigment technique. He knows that he will need to […]
