Doctors who give THIS must information freely and allows people to make their own decision to move forwards and pay gives me a good feeling!

great video very informative. thank you Dr and patient for sharing his example with us

It's very important to have information like this available for everybody. Thank you for helping others make informed choices.

Thank you for going clearly into the science of this type of hair loss. There can be lots of information on the internet that can be misleading and cause panic when you are losing hair. The more clear we can be, the better. Thanks!

I went to the “Bosely Group” up in Seattle in 1990. I had a hairline just like that guy. To their credit they told me “You are no longer in High School, you are a 27 year old young man with an appropriate hairline for your age. Frankly, I don’t even know why you are here”. Unbeknownst to me, my hairline had already stabilized and it and remained the same until today. I’m now 58.

Great content glad you can help that poor pt

Great video Dr Bloxham... I'm normally not one to comment on anyone's video even if I love it but you brought up so many great points in this video that I unfortunately had to learn the hard way ... and if I could pay you only 1 compliment, I would say that after watching this entire video... If your talent and ability as a transplant physician was only half that of the code of ethics and ethical behavior that you project and convey throughout your video, I have a feeling that would still be more than plenty to put these other doctors to shame... I respect you keeping the video focused on educating and what to be cautious of in the most professional manner as I'm sure that just for the very fact that you had to make this video, I'm sure there are plenty of companies/doctors that you would just love to cut into and tear apart for casting a negative shadow over the field of medicine that you have dedicated yourself to and made your livelihood... I'm sure anyone else who has actually gone to a few consultations will agree with me when I say that it was extremely refreshing to sit through this video but also stings a little at the same time as anyone who has done a few consults and then ultimately had the procedure and paid $10,000 - $15,000+ looks back and realizes that most of or all the doctors that they saw had a code of ethics that would fall somewhere between a Lemon Lot Used Car Salesman and a self-righteous, glorified, overcharging tattoo artist ... Only instead, they have a doctorate in Medicine instead... I've never heard more doctors tell people only what the patient wants to hear in my life... sprinkled in with only a few carefully and extremely well-worded reality checks throughout the entire process... my personal favorite was being told that 8,000 grafts would be just a little short of what I wanted and that I would be back to the little bit that I lost if I went the next step up to 13-1400 grafts so of course I did it and then it wasn't until my post surgery visit that they told me that I will probably need to do 1 more round of that same procedure to be where I wanted to be... I was so livid... they seemed so reputable at first and then they pulled a complete 180 on me... Maybe you won't bad mouth any doctors or companies but I will... I had my procedure done at Bosley in 2012 ... I always had insanely thick hair but I noticed my hairline falling back just a little bit ( about 1/3rd to 1/2 the amount of the guy in your video ) ... I was more convinced that it had to do with stress as it started to happen just after coming home for good after serving in Iraq as a Special Operations Marine Scout Sniper... (not the stress of my experiences there, but coming home and adjusting to civilian life after having such a high profile job and no comparable opportunities here at home on top of other personal relationships ending) ... I looked into a few options and Bosley seemed to be the best at the time... I can definitely also say that I was a bit blinded by the fact that this wasn't done at Bosley, Anywhere USA ... I had my consult and procedure done in NYC at the Bosley Office in Manhattan and my transplant surgeon was Dr. Alpeter who just happened to be one of the Doctors who spoke the most in the Bosley TV commercials that were airing at the time (Besides Dr. Bosley himself) ... I was even given the option to schedule my Procedure with Dr. Bosley himself since it was Manhattan but having him do it would have made my same $11/12,000 dollar procedure that I paid be a medical bill of $30,000 just for him to do it (which was never going to happen)... I def had a false sense of security as I thought to myself " well, I'm sure I'm in good hands as I made sense of it in my head that of all their doctors, I'm sure they would choose one of their most capable ones to represent their brand and company on TV"... I should have walked out when he wouldn't listen to any of my input at all... I showed him a picture of me that was only 2 years old and showed him that my hairline had moved back maybe about 1/4" or so... it definitely wasn't even at 1/2" back... I always had an extremely straight hairline and it receded straight back so it wasn't like a "V" like the guy in the video... there was only extremely minor thinning by my temple but not noticeable... the only reason why I even notice that my hair moved back is because I still had a few baby hairs where the line used to be and my hairline was perfectly framed and exactly where my forehead starts to curve up to my skull ... I had lost a line there that was basically as thick as my pointer finger... it was the only reason that I came there and he kept arguing with me that it would look too juvenile and he would keep saying to me " you think you want that now but you have no idea what kind of hair style you will be wanting 10 or 15 years from now... I looked at him and said " do you not see the tattoos on my arms? They don't come off... I can sit here and tell you right now that how I wear my hair is never going to change.... I'm a U.S. Marine Doc... I fade my hair by my ears and the back of my neck and keep it 3-4 inches on top... thats the way its going to stay until they drop my casket in the ground and hand someone an American Flag... so can you please do what I'm asking for the $12,000 that I'm paying you and put my hair back to the way I've been used to wearing it for the last 13 years.... He finally halfway gives up and says " I come as close as possible... He completely disregarded me, he put in multiple strands in spots around my hairline like you were talking about... and my hair has been straight as an arrow my entire life... before those 2 years of heavy stress my hairline was flawless... not only did he not bring my line to exactly where I instructed, but he sparsely filled it out and you can tell it's weaker up front now ... when I said "that doesn't look like enough hair up front, he said " well, you had a spot on the top of your head that was a little smaller than a Quarter ($0.25) and it was right on your part so we thickened that up... I said " I never part my hair so why would you do that when all I wanted was the front fixed with 1400 graphs within a 5 inch x 0.25/0.40 inch area... and then if I wasn't angry enough for some guy doing whatever he felt like after being paid 11/12,000 bucks, the most aggravating was yet to come but I wouldn't know until my hair grew in... as I said, my hair was always straight and curved up and down towards my face my entire life... they must not have been careful or paying close attention when placing the donor strands because they placed the follicles with the hair curving to the side on the one side of my hairline so now (thank God it's not a big one but it's enough to make my blood boil) ... if it wasn't bad enough, they basically installed a tiny Cowlick up by my hairline so now everytime the hair grows out, I have to go through my hair with a fine tooth comb and separate the straight strands of my hair from the small patch of sideways curving hair and then I have to take a sharp pair of scissors and cut that small patch of hair down to the base of my scalp .. Honestly, if I could sue them for my money back I would.... and if I tried and they said no BUT they offered to fix what they fucked up for free, I don't think I would allow them to touch my head again... and it took years of rubbing Moderma Scar Cream into the side and back of my head to get the scar they left when they butchered my scalp to fade enough where it no longer looks like I had my skull cracked open in 2 places ... it would have been so much unnecessary trauma avoided had I found you as my doctor instead of walking into Bosley's Butcher Shop ... I would never suggest anyone go there... modern day snake oil salesman with scalpels and only want your money ... it was my first great lesson in business though... " Just because someone can afford to advertise the business on a grand scale on TV doesn't mean they're good... doesn't mean they're the best... it just means they have enough capital to pedal their garbage to the masses"... ...The industry needs more doctors like you... if you ever need a guinea pig to film and market yourself fixing the Big Dogs mistake, let me know Dr. B ... hahaha

Great video!

Thanks a lot for these valuable informations.

Amazing video! Thank you.

I had a consultation with Dr. Feller and ultimately decided not to have a hair transplant. He was definitely the best transplant surgeon I consulted with.

I had a repair procedure with Dr Bloxham in 2019 and I’m extremely happy with the results. Great density and hairline artistry.

Dr. Blake Bolxham is a great resource for acutal unbiased info. I have Alopecia Areata plus MPB (NW6), and after consultation he explained very candidly that I was not a candidate, while others did. After researching Hair Transplant patients with AA and seeing what could happen, I am SO THANKFUL I consulted with Dr. Blake. If you're watching you're in good treatment.

Excellent video for explanation not to have a mistake. on hair transplant thank you for all the adevices that you give in this video

Speed it up to 1.25 playback speed

Fantastic information thank you

Good points!

Learned so much. Felt like I was in medical school. How I wish i lived closer. Any suggestions on what doctor or doctors perform this process as good as you here in California?

Definitely coming to you when I decide to do this surgery.

So it’s a year later, would love to see how you fixed it

thanks for this video. im slightly older than the patient but my hair loss is almost exactly the same. im on the verge of arranging consultations and getting more nervous the more I hear and see about things going wrong. thanks again for the video my advice for anyone close to booking a HT just keep getting as much info as you can

Very informative video! I wished I watched it before doing my HT. So far my hairline looks fine I don't see many multi hair grafts in the front.

Thank you!

Dr Blake, Thank you taking your time for helping all of us in the hair loss situation. I learned a lot and wanted to know can it really be determined in a person what the underlying cause of hair loss is in that one patient, before it comes to a transplant. I tried Rogain some years ago and it did NOTHING. Does PRP, or other procedures work and do you do any type for people with different types of hair loss? I feel that my hair loss is mainly stress caused by an accident in 2007 being told at the local hospital that I could go back to work and then finding out I had a meniscus roll in the right knee and the tendons torn loose in my hand and today in 2021 I still need more surgery. Then my attorney never took action so my W.C.case has set for years now. Way too much stress that no one should ever have. Do you think I am right? Thank you again for doing this video !!!

This is very helpful, thank you. I have a consultation tomorrow and will most likely be having an FUT in November if all checks out.

I think the fue graft roots were damaged by doc

What is your usual wait time for a surgery after consultation?

Fantastic video. May I ask how many forefront rows of single grafts would make for a natural looking hairline before the multi's?

As well as the multis a big issue not mentioned Its the pitting and the difference in skin texture thicker and then the slightly sunken holes where the area was worked on , i take it that happens when to much tissue around the graft when inserted ? But then also ive have see the reverse in pimple pitting , like follicles coming out of a milk spots , is it a depth issue on the later ?

The guy went to the gas station for sushi. If you are under 25 get on medication ( finasteride/minoxidil ) get a laser cap, derma roll, do what you can to delay surgery for as long as you can. Save your money and research extensively for the right clinic when the time comes. Hair loss is progressive and it’s a life long fight. If you must have surgery in your twenties do FUT. This informative doctor is right about donor supply and management. At such a young age exhaust your FUT before going FUE. Thank you Feller and Bloxham for this video.

I would love to get in plan like that

What are your thoughts on hair of Istanbul? This video makes me concerned about their potential quality..

Whats your opinion on diffused thinners?? I've been to really good clinics that do both fut and fue and they all recommend fue?

Still looks natural enough to me with the 2/hair grafts. I would worry more about obsessing with this attention to details and the money willing to pay for such corrections, than the problem itself.

I'm a female with hair so thick that it causes me headaches. lol. I have no idea why i am watching this or how I came across it. but it is extremely interesting and now I find myself watching all ur videos and researching hair transplants. hehe. very informative and very very interesting. I might show my dad this though. he is 75 and has an 8ball (bald spot) on his head. hehe. and is also really thin. but he doesn't care cuz my mom loves him either way. but still, he might wanna watch this. :) good luck to all the men who are watching this and researching this. I pray that u get the hair u want. :) but with or without hair, u r good and handsome man. just remember that! :)

I mean everything has levels, and these guys are clearly up there. I just dont have 30k to spend on FUE unfortunately. Thankfully you can get a good job done in Turkey for 3. 🙏🏾 🇹🇷

So are you saying these issues are less likely with dhi method?

Hello, I was wondering how the consultation is. How realistic can you get over photos etc, since I live in Europe. Q2: Is there possible to pull out the neck hair and place them the other way, since I also have a cowlick neckline that is very irritating.

With all that buildup, I felt you would tell the viewer exactly how you were gonna fix it. Was it going to be a tiny little session of switch a roo? Excise a single hair for multi -hair or what? Or a small strip session an just place a little more in front. Please tell the us! Thanks!

This is exactly like my case, where I had my first FUT with a clinic in Florida where they used large multi-hair grafts.

how much do you charge Dr Blake for a proper FUE transplant procedure ? Thanks

Many years ago , hair transplant procedures were done with rounded hair punch and the end result look like tuffs of dolls hair because of the rounded appearance of the grafts ' When turf is transplanted to grow a garden lawn , the turf is cut into squares and not rounded shapes , In the past , it would have been better if the punches cut square shape for implants because squares shapes are easy for the edges to meet up and to look more natural . I think there is too much over reaction in this video because the hair grafts have grown which is the most important thing as hair density is very important for the final results. Once the hair grows longer and depending if the hair is combed backwards or forward would also make a difference to the final result . By looking at this video , the patients might only need to have some refinement surgery to the edges of the transplant but overall he is lucky he has got so much density from the transplant and he has not had a failure where the grafts have failed to grow at all .

Does commitment to DHT blockers change recommended hairline design?

Reflex HyperAndrogenety. Dr. Can you please talk about this. Is it common? Can Finasteride cause it? Im ok with a " normal shed ". But a hardcore shed that can accelerate your hair loss its too much for me. Im thinking in jumping on Finasteride but im really apreensive because of this.

My transplant looks a lot lol this one. A shit ton of multis in the hairline, black dots, and a lack of density, I’m at 6.5 months I I still see growth, so it may improve on that a bit, and it is not as low and the design of the hairline is very good, it looks straight but is subtly irregular both in overall shape and in microirregularities, so it’s not too bad, as well as my hair being very fine, the multies are not as coarse and pluggy looking. But if it turns out not dense enough I’m definitely going for a repair aiming to soften the hairline and packing more overall, and I think it’s gonna be perfectly fine.

My hairline is almost the same as this gentleman.. just not quite as bad any suggestions or estimates

It would’ve been great if examples of these “sudden hair transplant clinics” were given and to differentiate the true professionals, like yourself, from the ones your client unfortunately encountered.

Does it mean if somebody needs 4 000 grafts, he would go at least for 3 surgeries?

I have the same problem, hairline is dark and thick, and the other natural hair now are is thin, look very weird

I trust Doctor Bloxham!

How can they be sure they are only implanting one hair grafts in the front of the hairline if they aren't using microscopes?

How far back in the hairline can a clinic begin using multiples?

Hello, do you work on females with traction alopecia? I’m not yet 30 and right braids have taken out my edges. I’d also like hairline lowering.

Hi, I have a quick question am on day 7 post HT op, and I was wondering does slight bleeding with scabs falling mean a dislodgment of graft?

thank you very much for the video. When I chose a hair transplant clinic (in Turkey), I tried to avoid clinics that did an aggressive front line (which looks like a zigzag). And of course the front line is very important for the patient. I was offered to make the line 1 centimeter lower, but I asked to make it higher, and the doctor agreed. It is very important to discuss the front line with your doctor. Thanks!

Hi sir my problem also like this pls help me i want only remove Transplant hair its possible

Doc, I've managed to get pretty much 100% survival rates with FUE with 2 top surgeons in Spain. This conception of only 90% yield on FUE is a little outdated to me. I even got full growth on BHT (did two different 100 graft BHT tests) when some surgeons claim on 50% will take. With today's protocols, storing solutions (ATP) and extraction tools there is no reason for FUE to yield over 95% on the right hands on a virgin scalp with no scar tissue and proper blood supply. We have hundreds of cases on the Spanish forum by these surgeons where it looks like complete regrowth. I am not stating it will be the case with every patient but it is the norm with their work among us forum users.

#DOStrong Love it. Great information. Thanks

ive seen some pictures that are sooo gross, each graft looks either like raised skin, bump or maggot sooooo gross... usually a dark skin patient. i did an fue, but mine looks just like a bad shaving,(small pimple like with hair which is the blood scab. no raised skin or anything. i did not do any homework before jumping in the decision. i just went to the only clinic that was near where i live....

Does having darker hair and darker skin truly help with perceived density I'm naturally tan with dark black thick hair. Hoping I'm a good doner when I can afford this

14:36 why would you advise a strip (fut) to be more agressive with it ?

Results?

FYI the link in your description does not work, you need to remove the "www."

I got 3,300 in front and 700 in crown will need more hairplants later im 38 hope I've enough donor hair left for top

Good stuff to fall asleep to.

As long as there are reputable clinics in Turkey doing it for 1/10 of the price, this will continue to happen. If only there were a guide for reputable, overseas clinics. People cannot afford $30K

The difference is so huge in density that i dont understand why todo this. It looks like new hair are much much thiner. It looks really bad.

Damn that doctor looks good. His Hairline, jawline and face with his eyebrows. Lucky guy. Either early fin or not bothered by androgenetic hairloss at all

Hello Dr , im going to have a hair transplant in two days . Im 42 years old , i still have enough hair for a 42 year old guy but the corners of the front line got bold and the crown of my haid is thinning . You think it's safe for that age ? Shall i do it ? And what about the existing hair i have will they ever shed in the future at that age of mine ? Im very reluctant , afraid and anxious .

Is 1800 grafts even enough for that amount of space? I can imagine it looking quite thin by 12 months. :)

Doctor bloxham, my donor is maxed out after 6 ht, I need 3k beard hair transplant to the head. What would this cost in your clinic. Thank you

Hi! I have a hair transplant. After how much time is it good to have the second transplant? Thanks

Why the need for recurring transplant? If you always have growing donor hair on sides and that's what's being transplanted on top

what Place did he go to to get his Transplant done?? That Dr. should get his money back? What say you?

Why dont we clone hair folliicles ? or grow them -we grow skin for burns.

Im definitely going to see you in a year my fue transplant for my hairline!

What's your thoughts on simfort?

Hi Doctor. I have couple of questions, which I didn't get clear answers from the doctor here after having my hair transplantation done 2 weeks back. His answers were a bit general and not clear for me: * I work in the construction, and I have to use helmet, spend few hours in the site, in a very hot and humid weather. Please advise me what to do. * when can I go back to work out in the gym, and is it possible to continue with protien shakes? * when is it best to start with biotin supplement. I will appreciate your reply. Thank you in advance.

I am 32 mixed race and I have a ball of hair .. but I am not happy about my hairline .. where do I go to fix it ? I live in Italy and turkey is 2/3 hours away ✈️...

Do also deal with African American hair because I live in south africa and the seem reluctant because of the nature of the hair

Resultados Please

I think that the guy in question looked so much better with his buzz-cut which if he had kept would have saved him a lot of angst and a lot of money - anyone else agree?

What do you think of Vera clinic in Turkey?

Doc and guys, do you think masturbation has anything to do with hair loss?

Hi sir i m done Transplant one year before 2000graft but i don't like my hair line so i want remove that hair its possible sir pls help me i want only remove

Hi ...how much do u charge for fue?for early 30s male...I want to know the price difference between here and Turkey

Damn kinda nervous now. I just did a transplant and there multi's on my hairline. I don't expect a perfect hairline, but I also don't want it as botched as this lol

Hey doctor, how can i consult with you?

I understand that Donor graphs are limited. How many graphs does the average person have in the donor area?

How do I got a estimate from you

Hey.... tank you for the reaction.... you great.. Can I send you pic of my hair transplant and know what you think?? Please 🙏. Even if not great reaction man.

So you did that’s 70s show and still went and became a doctor? 🤯

The hairline is the hardest thing for hair doctors to get right. If it doesn't look natural, it's a dead giveaway that you had a transplant.

Has Dr Feller had a transplant himself? Just wondering.

Way so much grafts? In this age it's just not necessarily.

how much do one of these things cost? Also does anyone know what would cause a healthy 28 year old to have a itchy scalp and rapid hair loss?

"Chest game." 🥸🤌

excellent advice given here, FUT strip is still the gold standard and young patients should have it to start with, I had two FUTs over a period of 5 years and by the time I came to having a third and final touch in I had plenty hair to harvest for an FUE, and crucially my grafts were prepped under a microscope, that is very important because if your grafts are not prepped under a microscope you hair will end up looking like the dreaded dolls hair plugs, like a 1970s pluggy transplant, and you don't want that at all!!

We can put a drone on Mars, but we still can't clone a follicle? Seriously? SERIOUSLY?! Seems to me that a good compromise is FUE + scalp micro pigmentation. And as with scalp micro pigmentation, it's all in the artist and you're left to fend for yourself to figure out which ones are bad, good, better, and best. Good luck with that. That being said, this guy sounds like he really knows what he's talking about, although he looks straight out of med school. Show us that hairline, Blake. Is it natural or aftermarket? :D

This doctor looks like Topher Grace,are they related? I love that 70’s show❤️
