While it’s great to see the mainstream media cover hair loss in a serious manner, much of what we see online, in print or on television can be misleading to those who don’t take the time to do their due diligence. The take away here is to understand the limitations of the mainstream media when it comes to covering health issues, and to always check with the American Hair Loss Association when considering any Product service to treat your hair loss.
For decades surgical hair restoration has been a very specialized field. In order to perform truly state-of-the-art hair transplantation it takes a great deal of experience and an extremely well trained staff of assistants. With the advent of these so-called automated devices, industry is selling complete novices on the notion that incorporating hair transplantation into any cosmetic surgery practice is now possible with a simple turnkey solution.
Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman give their perspective on the future of surgical hair restoration and provide their views on the direction of the field and how it effects prospective hair transplant patients.
Remember, even with the latest and greatest technology, the end result of any hair transplant is dependent on the skill and experience of the hair transplant surgeon and their staff. Do your homework and always check with The American Hair Loss Association or the IAHRS before considering consulting with any hair transplant clinic.
Let’s face it, there has always been double standards when it comes to men and women, but the unspoken pressure men have to look our best is something that is seldom talked about. For men, “measuring up” in our society has become far more complicated than it once was.
Spencer Kobren discusses this unspoken double standard and how society, mostly women judge men simply for wanting to be the best they can be.
