My Son’s Hair is Still Growing – It Turns out the Two Were Never Connected!

People often said that my son, who has a full head of hair, had taken my hair. I would laugh, but I was beginning to think the same thing. As his hair grew longer, mine fell out, and soon enough, I started looking like more of his great uncle than father. Maybe I am exaggerating a bit, but it felt that way. My wife eventually got tired of all my whining, and she booked me an online appointment with Heva despite my protests. I am glad she did because a part of me had biases against hair transplants, and I did not want to be that guy getting one. But on speaking to the team and seeing how professionally they handled hair transplants, I realized that this was more of a medical procedure than purely cosmetic, and I was finally on board.
We did a combination FUE hair transplant and a PRP hair treatment to deal with the thinning on the top of my head. Despite all the thinning, I still had a good donor area, and the surgeon was able to extract and transplant 4,200 grafts. He also did the PRP treatment before and after the implantation, which he said would maximize the survival of the grafts and minimize shock loss. I am now 18 months post-op, and while I do not have a teenager’s hairline, I have excellent coverage. I do PRP sessions every 6 months, and that helps a lot with supporting my hair health. Oh, and my son’s hair is still growing – it turns out the two were never connected!
