QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Does any surgeon know of a few qualified foreign hair transplant surgeons that he/she would feel comfortable in referring me to?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
There is a saying in Arabic my dad used to like: The expensive is cheap! In other words, you get what you pay for. Of course this is not always true, but if the so called expensive item or service is of top quality then it is true.

What you must realise is that a significant and quality hair transplant can take a whole day and involve a large team of highly trained professionals. That is what produces the results you see. In the countries you mentioned there are regulations, standards and accountability. Most of the doctors you found expensive also invest heavily in travelling and taking time out of their practice to continually educate themselves and their staff in the latest techniques and ideas.

Cheap surgery is exactly that. Either the staff and the doctor are not getting paid enough, or they have to cut corners so they can do more 'cheap' surgery on that day. Do you want to be treated under those circumstances?

Finally, if cheap surgery results in a complication or an unnatural result, you will regret it for a very long time if not the rest of your life and of course it will cost you a lot more money!

Eyebrow transplant question - Will donor site grow back?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
A hair transplant involves physically moving hair roots from one location to another. they are not at the original location any more
However, this does not mean you will notice any bald patches because of the way we perform a hair transplant.
With strip or FUT we remove the hairs and the skin, shrinking the area to a very thin linear scar. With FUE we scatter the harvest site over a large area to make very hard to notice the missing hairs

10 Days Post Op Hairtransplant and Still Scabbing?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
This is not unusual and all may resolve in a few days time. Perhaps you have not been cleaning the area thoroughly. Please follow up and visit your doctor as they may be able to wash it off
Perfectly fine to sleep on all your scalp at this point

Can a woman with severe hair loss get a hair transplant?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Yes omen can be good candidates for hair transplant surgery provided you actually have female pattern hair loss or traction alopecia for example. Other medical conditions causing the loss need to be ruled out as well as other scarring diseases like lichen planopilaris or frontal fibrosing alopecia
Importantly expectations need to be established and sufficient donor hair available compared the amount of hair loss you have

Is it possible to have a FUE Hair transplant on crown area with African Hair at 26 years of age? (photos)

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
It is physically possible of course, but I would highly recommend against it generally and in your case particularly.

Doing the crown now will consume a lot of donor hair in an area that will definitely lose my hair in an outwardly concentric manner. this has the potential to leave you with 'reverse' monk look of hair island and a ring of baldness!

Yes you can chase it with more transplants but by the time you finish you may not have much left to deal with the front

Does a Person's Skin Color Affect the Noticeability of hair transplant Scars?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Yes, generally speaking the best results are when there is the least amount of colour contrast between the hair and the skin
In other words, the most demanding hair transplant is likely to be in pale white skin and very dark coarse hair

Hair Falling off 4 Years After Hair Transplantation (FUE) Procedure

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
I believe all hair deteriorates in quality with time and as you age. In most cases this does not become cosmetically evident until much later in life but on occasion it may happen earlier. So even if everything is done correctly, it is possible that say 10, 20 or 30 years later, the transplant may not quite be the same quality it once was
Your scalp needs to be examined throughout to see if the same is happening to your donor area where the original hair transplant came from.
There is a study I have been part of that shows that apart from male pattern baldness, the hair can also genetically deteriorate due to the ageing process

Won't a hair transplant look unnatural after natural existing hair balds further in the future?

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Yes there is that danger, if not adequate planning goes into the design of your hair transplant. An excellent, conscientious and experienced surgeon will assess your potential future hair loss and take all this into account so that your future pattern is as natural as possible even without further hair transplant surgery
If you believe the potential for future hair loss is high, you should consider medications

Getting hair transplant while hair is thinning ? (photos)

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
You look like a great candidate for a hair transplant now or later. 
If you do it now, then it might be a bit less noticeable while its maturing. On the other hand, your thin hairs might be in danger of shock loss
Your decision needs to be made balancing how much you desire to have more hair now vs valuing the hairs you currently have
If in doubt you may be best advised to start Minoxidil, propecia or low level laser for a few months and re visit the subject of hair transplant

Which Hair Transplant Surgery Treatment is Good and Why? (photo)

Asked By:AnonymousANSWERS (1)
Unfortunately it sounds like you have fallen victim to clever marketing. DHI is not a technique. It is a chain of clinics that claim to be a method. You are essentially comparing the same thing.

To compare FUE vs the other 'famous' method FUT or strip, see the link I have provided

Excellent Service - Manchester UK

On Wednesday 27/5/15 I had my transplant with Dr Williams and Dr Farjo in Manchester . As a business man myself for the last 28yrs. I was very impressed with the professionalism of the set up and the whole team of staff. As I entered the operating room I was surprised to see 6 other members of staff waiting , I commented on this and asked if they were all there for my operation. They explained the reason was that once my hair was taken out the quicker they are separated ready for the graft the greater percentage of success. In total 8 people worked around 8 hours on my operation it was a long day but the staff were amazing and the final result is looking excellent. From the advice of Mick my first contact and finishing touches from Dr Williams what a great guy and can highly recommend this company.

Possibly the worst clinic, extreme bad result that fail to give me hair

Quite possibly the worst clinic. I was left with an extreme bad result. Quick to take money, but fail to give me hair. This is a warning to anyone who is considering this clinic. Do not be fooled by a flash clinic its all smoke a mirrors. You will be left wondering why you never took this advice.

Nightmare

I made a big mistake dealing with Farjo. Hair clinics in the UK are diabolical. Even though I read this time and time again...I didn't listen. I would strongly advise anyone in the UK to fly to the US. I wasted my time and money.
