My Second Innings - A Hair Raising Experience - India, IN

Loss of Hair or even a Bald look suits some like Yul Bryner or our own Anupam Kher. For most like me, it does not suit at all. At 61, with 75 % of the hair from the front and top region of the scalp disappeared within a short span of 3 years , I had the choice of either accepting this changed look or to take a look at the new technology widely advertised in daily newspapers. Hair tonics and herbal treatment failed in my case. Hair Transplant, promised that natural look appropriate to my age.

I had my doubts whether at my age the transplant would be sucessful. Infact, my first visit to a well known tricologist clinic was discouraging for same reasons. A casual discussion on this treatment with our Company's medical officer, led to the introduction of Dr. Sameer Karkhanis. In my very first meeting with him, he confidently declared that the transplanted hair will definitely grow and one sitting would be enough to cover the necessary frontal look. I took the plunge and have never regretted it. The actual growth is noticeable only after 3 months. By the 5th month, the new hair blends perfectly with the old. This treatment although not cheap is definitely gratifying and brings in the change for the better. That feel good look and feeling, in our second innings makes it worth it. Strongly recommended to all Balding Brethren ..... regardless of their age.
