A year ago, I got my synthetic hair implant in another country clinic, since they really persuaded me to try out their biofiber synthetic hair implant made from Italy. Now I started having inflammation and redness and itching, I visited a dermatologists who recommended that I get these removed immediately. I have seen such patients and their […]

The patient in the top view is 4 days after ~1850 graft FUE procedure. Clearly the transplants are barely detectable at this time. Even immediately after the surgery, there was no pink color to his scalp even just one day after the surgery because his skin was ruddy in color. The second patient (C) is 18 […]
I have been asked lately to show more pictures after the surgery so that prospective patients can understand what they may look like. Each patient is different because of hair and skin color. The lower the contrast, the less detectable it is, the grater the contrast the more detectable the ‘beard look’ of new hair […]
The pictures below reflect a very beautiful top model who had a hairline transplant in the past that she did not like. The previous hair transplant surgeon did not understand the differences between male hairlines and female hairlines, nor the need to put very fine hairs in the leading edge of the hairline. This surgery […]
We have become aware from the hair transplant community that the use of a specially designed tape, when placed at the mid-forehead, prevent swelling from going below the tape and given enough time, for those who wear the tape, to absorb the edema from the surgery through the scalp directly. Note the swelling above the […]
We do not have any heavy metals or any type of metals in our pigments. Our pigments are purely organic and as a result you don’t have to worry about an MRI which can pull on the pigments and cause redness and pain or have your body react to substances it can not absorb. Many […]
I am posting this only because I receive similar emails daily from patients all around the world after they have their hair transplant surgery. I want to emphasize I am honored to be sought out for my opinions on hair transplant issues. However, I also want to make it clear that BaldingBlog (or the Internet) is not […]
The simple fact is I cannot diagnose your condition. If you think you were wrongly diagnosed, see another doctor. Genetic Male Pattern Balding is not a difficult diagnosis to make. Having a small microscope to look at your scalp helps for a miniaturization study but this is not always necessary. Propecia does not work for […]
Please call your surgeon! I do not know what you have. Hot flushes, redness, severe itching on face and neck sounds like some allergic reaction or an infection.
My father (age 60) is pretty bald (Class 6 balding pattern) but he still had hair on the top of his head. I am also a Class 6 (age 40) person but more balding than my father as my scalp is clean of any hair on the top. I went to a hair transplant doctor […]
Many patients ask how their hair will look like after surgery. In general you can get redness and scabs for about one to two weeks depending on how well you wash your hair. This particular patient healed well and there is no significant redness of scabbing after 10 days! More interesting is the fact he […]
Another patient with SMP to the old hair transplant scar. While the scar itself is not the worst we’ve seen, it defiantly shows when the hair is cropped very short. You can see the SMP results after the 2nd SMP procedure. Note the slight redness since the photo was taken immediately after the SMP.
This patient was a victim of a bad surgery and old plug scars. He didn’t have enough hairs to cover the plugs or enough transplanted hairs to cover the top. He was out of options other than wearing hats or a hair piece. SMP helped him with creating a hair line and hiding most of […]
As part of the informed consent for any surgical procedure, even a hair transplant, patients must fully understand the risks to life that confront them. I am aware of two deaths from hair transplant surgery, probably the result of doctors inexperienced with the use of medications such a Xylocaine (Lidocaine). One of those cases involved […]
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 […]
