https://www.barrons.com/news/hair-transplant-fad-turns-deadly-in-inda-01669949408 Cleanliness is close to Godliness. I can’t comment too much about this tragic report; however, the surgery was apparently performed by a non-physician team, possibly without respect for the cleanliness required of a surgical procedure. These Hair Transplant Black Markets, have reduced prices to induce naïve men to think that they are getting a […]

Have you seen any of patients who ended up getting COVID after their transplants. What was their results like ? I have not seen anyone who developed Covid after a hair transplant but I would suspect that nothing would happen to the transplant, if that is your concern
Hey Dr. Can microneedling cause scarring that prevents a successful hair transplant in the long term?? The needling’s don’t go deep enough to cause damage below the skin provided that you keep them 1.5 or 1.., nothing longer, The hair follicle goes down between 5-7mm
Have your patients reported to you that their life improved was improved from getting a hair transplant (E.g. Confidence, more time etc)? I’m thinking about getting it done and I’m really worried about the first day travelling home. Almost all of my hair transplant patient regret not doing it earlier. The average age for a hair […]
If you have a hair transplant do you need to take Fin still? Or are the donor hairs usually resistant to hair loss? You should keep in mind that male patterned hair loss is progressive and finasteride does two things when having a hair transplant: (1) it protects against shock loss from the transplant (the […]
I want to know what I would look like after surgery (typical look). For instance, what impact will the surgery have on my appearance at various intervals after the surgery, especially since we are talking about grafts to the front that everyone will see when I meet them. I am also concerned that if I […]
I am not comfortable at microneeding the recipient area of a hair transplant because the skin is sensitive to such conditions as folliculitis.
This patient paid $500 for his hair transplant. Not a bargain with this complication. There was no doctor present and only technicians doing the anesthesia and the surgery. When this heals, there will be a scar in the middle of his head.
Hey Dr. Rassman, so was just wondering on some advice , i’m considering getting a transplant as i’ve thinned fairly in the back and towards the front how ever have somewhat density there so i’m considering getting a transplant to give back some thickened and a hairline ! However like most people i’m worried about […]
Let’s say one day science was able to allow HTs from deceased people. On their drivers license is a little icon of a hair follicle meaning they would donate their hair after they died. NO! hair transplants from another person requires antirejection drugs that could kill you
I read a lot about people having 2-3 HTs in their lifetime but always just assumed they had more than 1 because they weren’t on fin. Is this a safe assumption? I want to eventually have an FUE because I just don’t like my natural temporal points (fin and min havent fixed them yet, and […]
You can get a hair transplant without medications; however, if you are under 30 and/or had recent hair loss, then shock loss is a high risk without taking oral finasteride prior to the surgery. Early hair loss is the problem. Anyone whose hair loss is recent, will usually have miniaturization that is extensive. It is […]
Finasteride does two things when you are having a hair transplant: 1- It prevents shock loss (loss of the hair you would have lost in the coming two years which is accelerated) 2- It stabilizes the progressive nature of genetic balding So yes, giving up these benefits is not uncommon and you can have a […]
Is hair transplant useless if finasteride doesn’t work on your normal hair? Hair transplants are taken from the back and sides of the head. These hairs (we call in the donor zone) are permanent hairs that never fall out, so when they are moved to the balding area they take their genes with them. Finasteride […]
I know you suggest finasteride after hair transplant to prevent shock loss. How long would you use finsateride after a hair transplant to prevent shock loss? I generally like the man to be on finasteride at least 1-2 weeks before the transplant and until the transplanted hair has grown out. That applies to men under […]
