Booked a hair transplant for September - anybody done one? Allow turkey - don’t like the idea of being that far away if something goes wrong.

Just watch?

Turn 30 in a few months. Been steadily getting thinner on top for the last 3/4 years and I tried the 0 all over during Covid and I don’t like it. Found a good clinic here in NYC, which is run by the doctor who co authored one of the first research papers on the FUE technique.
I know that it’s a bit of an embarrassing subject but I’m pleased to be able to do something about it.
Just wondered whether anybody here has been through the procedure and could share any advice

Not that I'm a staunch defender of hair transplants but there are some you don't really think about that have an effect on the way you view that person - Jurgen Klopp and Damon Albarn are two that come to mind. Not sure I'd get one though.

I know two guys that have had transplants. One of them paid £££’s and got it done on Harley street and it looks amazing. Other guy got it done in Europe somewhere on the cheap and its dreadful, he looked better before he had it done.
I don’t think it’s embarrassing at all. I’d probably have one if I was turning into a baldy.

My hairline is receding a bit in the corners. It's otherwise really thick, so just a bit annoying really. I probably need to keep it a bit shorter and avoid the Bobby Charlton look.

Quite a few people, I have coarse curly hair so, people who have had decent ones are Andros Townsend, Lewis Hamilton (who denies it), Jamie Fox, Tyga, Tory Lanez. Yep, Elon’s is very good. A load of celebs have had them.

Maybe they’re not for everyone, but the technology they use is quite advanced now and I’m happy to give it a shot if it gives me hair for another 10 years.

It is quite expensive out here, but I’d rather know I’m getting a decent doctor and be a 20 minute cab ride away from the clinic if I ever need to go back for follow ups.

Don’t know anything about it but good luck to you! Keep us updated

That’s a piece deffo

Are you left with a scar at the back of your head where they take it from?
