I think that the technology has been pushed as far as it can go as we mimic just what nature does. The problems in the community are mainly related to the surgical team, and a few issues with physician education. Too many doctors are doing this with inexperienced teams of assistants, so the practical problem […]

How clever… this guy appears to be trying to sell a “narrative” on eBay, because otherwise it is a violation of that site’s policy to sell info on how to get cheaper drugs. Here’s the information that this joker is likely trying to sell… and I won’t charge you anything for it. In fact, I’ve […]
Hair transplants are not just available to “rich guys”, but as you are a teenager with an interesting view on things, perhaps you consider anyone with a better-than-minimum wage job to be “rich”. Remember that hair transplantation is a completely elective procedure and not for everyone. If you buy a hair system and do the […]
This week I met with two patients who reported having large transplant sessions, both with extremely disappointing tales I want to share. Patient 1: The first patient reported two surgical sessions totaling 4800 grafts both done in Los Angeles. He had a very low hair density and a moderately tight scalp based upon what I […]
Hair transplant pricing follow the rules of supply and demand. There are discounters who sell it for less and many of these discounters will not provide the same quality. Quality is defined by the percentage of grafts that really grow and the art of the distribution of the hair. Price ranges from follicular unit transplants […]
What makes you think doctors do not lower hairlines? Doctors generally recommend a neutral hairline appropriate for one’s age. It generally should be in the mature hairline position. Often, younger men will request a hairline that may be too low or lower than what is considered “normal” and certainly more like their 12 year old […]
This week I saw a man who claimed that he had 3000 grafts (he said his doctors told him that his grafts had about 9,000 hairs) placed on his head about a year ago. I could not see much hair from the hair transplant and because of his dark skin and diffuse hair loss, it […]
You copied and pasted that text from a site created by a group called “MPB Research” — and their “About” page says, “Some of the most effective hair loss treatments are not available in the U.S. without a doctor’s prescription. At M.P.B. Research you can find out how to legally obtain these treatments without a […]
The medical field is not clear about the cause of folliculitis decalvans. It is thought to be an autoimmune disease that presents like an infection of the hair follicles, but it does not respond to traditional treatment. The disease can be aggressive and destroy many hair follicles and badly scar the scalp. Hair transplants into […]
I don’t have decent answers to either of your questions, unfortunately… because these aren’t things I have access to. To answer why Propecia is so expensive, you’d have to defer to the company that manufactures it and owns the patents on the drug, Merck. You could speculate all day why drug prices are what they […]
Please read through the information I’ve supplied in the very lengthy post called The Truth About Cheap Hair Transplants to get tips on how to select a doctor. You should put price into the formula only after all other criteria have been met. Then, of course, it is a free enterprise society and the prices […]
If everything goes as planned, you should expect 95+% of the transplanted follicular units (grafts) to grow. I am not sure if you are asking me what the cost per graft is for us at NHI or what the average rate is. Prices do vary per doctor or clinic. There are many variables to consider […]
I’ve received a few emails over the past year and a half about this BX 3.4 helmet, and as I wrote before, there is no science that I can see behind claims that electromagnetic waves can have a positive impact on hair regrowth. I was just reading on their website that this helmet requires a […]
This is certainly a big news story this week, but for those that haven’t followed it, please read the following links: CNN – Autopsy planned for Kanye West’s mom Wired – American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery President Discusses Kanye West’s Mom’s Death What is there to say that the above references did not already say?

It sounds like you have a couple of things going on. The chemical burn might be secondary to genetic male pattern baldness. To get the diagnosis of genetic balding, you should get your hair mapped out for miniaturization and consider taking Propecia (finasteride 1mg) if indicated by your doctor. I really can’t tell you if […]
