As some of you may know, I got a hair transplant 2 months ago. I am curious about those who have Alopecia. I came here for support on my hair loss and know you all support male pattern baldness. I know that hair transplants don't work for you all but if it did, would you consider getting one?

Thanks,

Julian White

Thanks for the comments guys!

Mike, I understand where you are coming from. Guess I haven't gotten used to my baldness.

Cat, Why wont they give you a hair transplant? Is it because they say you are not a good candidate for one? I know with my transplant they took my hair follicles from the back of my head to transplant in my crown area.

Hair transplantation is a surgical technique that moves individual hair follicles from a part of the body called the donor site to bald or balding part of the body known as the recipient site. It is primarily used to treat male pattern baldness. In this condition, grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding are transplanted to bald scalp. It is also used to restore , eyelashes, eyelashes, beard hair, chest hair, and pubic hair and to fill in scars caused by accidents or surgery such as face-lifts and previous hair transplants.
