It is highly unusual for transplanted hair (taken from the correct donor area) to fall out. In the few instances I have seen it, every time I have observiced ‘permanent hair’ falling out for some reason, the hair returned. This was never in response to another surgery (e.g spinal surgery), but rather usually a response […]

One of the manifestations (or presentations) of female genetic hair loss is that some women have hair that sheds easily with stress and then comes back. You will have to wait this out.
When the scalp is too tight, the only option to extract hair is by using the FUE technique. I have done some patients with FUE as the last option with good results, but it is very difficult to evaluate you without at least some photos (personal consultation is always best). Since you’ve indicated that you […]
The before-and-after photos show his wonderful results. I performed his transplant just under two years ago. He recently sent me photos and said the front and crown were nicely filled in. Of course, he uses some styling to cover a reduced density in the crown and could easily fix this with more grafts or SMP […]
One of my former patients, still on finasteride and wanting a refill, sent me this photo of his present appearance. Blonde men do better, getting the appearance of fullness. The contrast in color between skin and hair is narrow, creating more fullness with less hair. Blonde hair also reflects light, adding to the cosmetic effect. […]
This man had a hair transplant a few weeks before these bald spots appeared on his head. More and more of them appeared. To make the diagnosis, a biopsy needs to be done. It is likely a scarring alopecia, but it could be a variety of scalp/hair diseases triggered by the hair transplant. I have […]
I have a hair transplant programmed in 2 months. My doctor told me to avoid all kind of exercise for 2 weeks prior and 4 weeks post-transplant. I will ask him for more details about it, I mean, can’t I do a few sets of really low weights just to maintain the muscle? or is […]
I always like to ask, what roles do you play during the operation and what do you like to delegate to the technicians. There is a lot of variety in how this is approached. Who does the incisions, extractions, and graft placement? For a hair transplant, this is who does what: 1- Design of the recipient […]
There is no doubt that this man, now in his mid-50s, looks younger than his balding before state. I did his surgery 20 years ago and it is always a pleasure seeing my older patient. He maintains his hair situation from progressing by taking finasteride which he has been taking since 2002. He has no […]
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 can’t tolerate finasteride or even topical finasteride. So I got a hair transplant and now found that I lost a lot of hair from shock loss within the past month. You were in a difficult place and I appreciate the problem. The price of shock loss vs the price of loss of your sex […]
I have some criticisms: (1) the crusting should have been washed off immediately after the surgery so that you are normal looking, and (2) the harvest was extended beyond the permanent zone of the donor area, something that should not be done.
Had my HT on 19th December 2019. I am 25 years old. 2100 Grafts FUE. Would love to know your opinions on this. If you and your doctor had taken off all of the crusting on day one, you would not have to walk around looking like that or wear a hat. Here is what you […]
I just scheduled an FUT procedure that is estimated for about 2500–3000 grafts in my crown, with any extra going to the corners of my hairline. About 18 days after the procedure, I have a two-week-long unavoidable work obligation where I will need to interact with clients in-person. (Aside from this obligation, I can work […]
It was washed after 7 days. Immediately after surgery. I developed some boils over my head. The clinic says that they do high density hair transplant. They have said that I require 3 sesssions and 8000 grafts to cover my entire scalp. Now only 1st session is completed. They don’t recommend minoxidil and finasteride, it […]
