Hair transplantation can be a wonderful option for those who make good candidates for the procedure. With today’s state of the art techniques, surgical hair restoration can be life changing. Unfortunately, for some men and women, hair transplantation is simply not a reasonable option, and undergoing surgery after being assessed as a poor candidate can be devastating.
For those hair transplant physicians and patients who choose to take the risk knowing full well that there is a strong possibility that things might not work out, take a step back and consider the possible consequences.
Again, for the right candidate a hair transplant can be an incredible life altering experience, but for the wrong candidate living life as hair loss sufferer will take on a whole new meaning.
See one man’s story:
“That surgery ruined my life. I mean I lost an inch of my clavicle in Iraq and its nothing compared to how psychologically devastating this has been.”
“I saw commercials for hair transplants and jumped at the opportunity. WORST decision of my whole life!!! I must say that the doctor pretty much did everything to steer me in another direction. He was very moral about the whole thing. It was only after months of persistence on my part that he relented and performed the graft. It was ok at first. I kept using the toppik and now I had a little more of my own hair to work with, but I did have to keep my hair much longer b/c the scar was a million times worse than I thought it would be.”
