Wow
We need a cure
Will probably never happen as hair isnt alive and the cure is a hair transplant unfortunately
Maybe AI can finally fix it
I think it's likely to happen just like Viagra did, but it could also be something that is done using gene therapy and stem cells. Transplanting cloned hair may also become an option. Like @Guus115 said, science may soon get a "magic boost" from AI research. There's certainly a lot of money to be made from the cure and there are also researchers who want the cure for themselves, so it's not like no one is trying...
They found a vaccine for the 2019 coro.. and they can't find a cure for hair loss? I have doubts.
@@iDTecKtBut the follicles are alive. I don't think any cure will be a normal pill you could take, though. More likely it would require some kind of genetic alterations that can make your existing follicles resistant to DHT. Not sure if it would work on someone who already has a significant degree of hair loss.
Maybe the solution for people with lots of hair loss will be mass cloning of the existing DHT-resistant hairs around the sides with a big transplant, as you mentioned.
Aged 53yrs old I have to admit that I would still love to get my hair back! As a youngster I had a very thick mop of brown curls but in my final (very stressfull) year at university aged 21 the thinning began apace. And within another couple of years I was properly bald.
The way it rocked my confidence as a young man is something that has stuck with me to a degree, even as I have realised that one has to accept things and move on. So yes, I never underestimate the impact this can have.
You're a good looking man there Bill, never underestimate a winning smile. People notice that far more than hair.
@@natashaa43 Ha! Thanks for that😽
@@billarmstrong5568rofl, how’s that for kind words bolstering someone’s day lol
But wow man, I read that once someone accepts baldness, they’re the most content.. and I do know how a couple of males who are totally bald at the age of 30 and they don’t care at all.
But yeah I’m suprised to hear that people can still not let go after 30 years.

I had a hair transplant at 66, i live in Bangkok. At first when i went to the hair clinic rhe doctor said there was not enough hair to do a tranaplant. He gave me minoxidol spray & tablets plus Finasteride. After 8 of doing this he asked me to come back. He said i now had thicker hair and he could do a transplant on my crown area and some of my front. My hair was thinning but not complete hair loss. My hair surgeon gave me realistic expectations.I'm very pleased with the result.
8 months? I'm at 8 months of fin+dut and I'm still going through a constant shed with not much major regrowth yet
@@reykennedy5716 Some people get efficacy differently than others; meaning not everyone would get the same efficacy from drugs/supplements.
@@reykennedy5716fin+dut seems overkill, are there any studies on using it in combo?
@@reykennedy5716that's right! Crazy that after 8 months that hair improved with the meds... Iam 4 month on Fin now...
I am 37, female, UK. I've had thinning hair on top for the last 10 / 11 years. I think due to medication I've been on, but also my genes are not great on the hair-side of things. 3 years ago I shaved my head and loved it.
1 week ago I shaved it again and love it ❤️
I think anyone can rock the shaved/bald head look. It is just confidence. I feel much better not seeing my thinning hair. This way you can't tell it's thinning and in poor condition. Power on to everyone 💪🏻🌟😎
I know this one young women who alopechia and she's hot. so it's not all about hair
Shaving head looks neat and fresh . People with hair still maintain with hair cuts .
Look into L. Reuteri Yogurt and Kefir. Nobody really talks about how anti biotic and medications ruin the microbiome and the ability to absorb essential nutrients for hair and body. Dr. William Davis explains the benefits of the yogurt.
Thanks to the guidance of Dr.Linkov, ive got my hair transplant appointment with a good surgeon in may. Im already feeling so much more confident
What keeps me personally from having a procedure is that I know I'd have to be on constant medical therapy afterwards. I worry about the side effects - both the ones we already know, and the ones we might realize later. It doesn't feel right to do medical therapy for the rest of my life strictly for cosmetic reasons.
It isn't right; fixing cancer and paralysis will be worth potential risks, but fooling nature for vanity and accepting unknown risks are not. Just the fact that I see a lot of shaved heads with line (or two or more) in the back, of pock marks all over (FUE?) tells me they don't always work, then they put you on drugs...suck it up, work on other thinks.
I think we also need to discuss the side effects of oral Finasteride. I was on this drug in my middle to late 20’s for hair loss and the side effects were significant (mostly sexual side effects). It took almost an entire year for the most major side effect to return to normal after ceasing this medication. Minoxidil, how ever, had very little side effects.
As much as Finasteride is meant to work and help, I would never take it again and I think it’s important to let people know that it affects your hormone levels and can come with significantly undesirable side effects.
how about topical finasteride? Have you tried it?
Absolutely correct ! Oral Finasteride is big NOOO ! I faced the same drug side effects !
All though i haven't tried topical Finasteride
Me too
@@KNDCHV I have tried topical from KEEPS for two month and had the side effect people talking about. I stopped now and side effects are gone. I am using growplex minoxidil and it has natural DHT blocker. I also use Nutrafol men. Has been only two months, but no side effects, or should I say good side effects like opposite of sexual side effects, if you know what I mean. Do your research on these two product if interested.
sometimes i feel like the only person who has no sides and all the benefits of fin. wish everyone had good luck with it
It’s wild how much impact a man’s hair can have on his self esteem, thank you for your time Doc 👍🏻
Thank you for your honest and informative videos!
I really appreciate your teaching ✨
Great video. I fall into this category and I have to say this video gives me hope. I never thought it was possible.
What a terrific video, Doc!!!
as always very good and useful information
Love this DR he’s so honest.. if I had the money he would be my first choice.. I really hate my hair loss. I feel so low it’s affected my whole life.
Fly to istanbul i was there two times and last time just one month ago 1,6-1,8k for the whole process including hotel stay for 3 days and all the transportstion. But you need to buy the Flight
@@volkani9008are you on finasteride?
@@volkani9008 What clinic did you use if you don't mind us asking?
Thank you Dr. Linkov. Your videos made me feel ok and accepting my bald look for the time being. I cancelled my scheduled transplant prossedure last year. Maybe in the future if hair cloning will advance might i start thinking about it again.
Can you discuss what are ideal ferritin levels to promote hair growth? And maybe also a segment about estrogen dominance and possible hair issues ?
Great video as always ❤
Thanks! Please subscribe!
Nowadays, you can get really impressive coverage when you combine scalp + BEARD (or even chest) grafts. Of course, your beard hair needs to be a good MATCH.
Also, it really depends on the donor - some patients have a great donor (and can also use the extended donor area). There are videos of doctors doing over 10 000 gratfs…
Some patients have a very weak donor… then even 6-7000 grafts is a stretch 😅 HT is a case-specific procedure…
What are you thoughts on hair stem cell transplant? It would've been awesome if you touched on that in the video as well.
Thx for explaining.
I just did my 2nd set of a 3 session prp hair injections! I recommend it if your outside of the U.S. its cheaper and more affordable to do than what they charge back home. It did work with thickening my hair. My last session was 4 months ago and my barber had asked if i was using something..so that was a positive comment to hear!
I was a norwood 7 but had small white hairs all over the top. I started medical therapy 3 months ago, i'm now a norwood 4 and there's alot of white mini hairs left. I lost all my hair by 18 and 23 now. I have more hair now then I did at 17.
No issues with sides and what mg and how often are you taking it?
@@hmdwn I started to have constant fatigue recently but I'm not sure if its my office job or the medication but I'm taking oral finasteride and minoxidil. 1.1mg and 3mg daily. I think my results are different from what most people will get since I had extreme hair loss. I didn't reced it just got super thin. I still have a perfect hairline It is still really thin but getting thicker. I'm not entirely sure it was androgenic. Minoxidil and diet might be the only thing doing anything. I was completely balded in less than a year after first noticing thin hair from 17-18.
But also, you're young. All of your loss is recent. Every case of complete returns and the best recoveries is always from 20-25 year olds. You were very aggressive, but you still can halt and slow and reverse it. Be careful of minoxidil long term and stick with finasteride or dutasteride at least 24 months to get a full view of what it will do for you. Also, the hairs you're mentioning are called vellus hairs.
Sounds like something else besides male pattern balding.
@@xypholddid you shed at all in the beginning of treatment?
Excellent Ty!
I'm not sure this will be the channel to ever cover this since you specialize in a specific surgery/technique/technically, but I'm eager to hear when we're able to actually grow and replace or reactivate hair follicles vs grafting them from one spot to another.
With a patient who has Norwood 6 or 7, as a Doctor, I would just forego any work on the crown and focus on giving as much density to the front and mid scalp.
Great video very honest and alot of helpful information
I was a fully bald in August of 2023. I had a full head of hair in 2020, by the end of 2020, I was fully bald. No idea how it happend so quickly (I was slowly thinning, but nothing to crazy). I stayed bald until August 2023 when my head shaver broke (I should mention im a medical student and started med school in 2021, took about 6 months off when my son was born and returned in 2022). It is now end of march 2024 (7 months since being fully bald), I can can firlmy say that derma rolling and medical managment (minoxidil, finasteride, biotin) helped me in getting my hair back. But what helped even more, and when I started to see way more results was once I started sleeping more, eating cleaner, not skipping meals, putting on sun screen, covering my head from heavy sun when reasonably possible. I have a really loving family and I will say this helps. And my wife is an angel, who has supported me in every way (bald, broke, with hair, busy, sleepless and all the other things associated with being a med student dad). So really guys, Dr. Gary knows what he is saying, follow his advice.
Hey Gary! Could you make a video about the chance of cloning the hair follicle, I read that it was something that people are working on currently and I think it’d be the permanent solution. Cheers
Dr Linkov, what do you think about harvesting beard grafts not just from the neck but also from the face? Literally extracting someone's beard follicles on the chin and the cheeks. I heard some doctors consider it to be a good additional source of grafts as the healing process on the face is very robust and leaves almost no FUE scars after extraction.
Hey Doc! Can you please do a video about Redensyl for hair growth? Thank you!
When are your products out!!?
As usual, Dr is to the point with a realistic and feasible transplant plan for Norwood 6/7. The baldies of the world thank you for clearing things up!!! 🤟
🙏
Any great suggestions for men of African descent with thick, curly, “nappy” type of hair? age 37. Thanks Doc 🫡
That was probably the Best Presentation I have ever heard. Experience can make all the difference. I had no idea so many grafts were used and must be awesome not to have to really deal with any of that. Some look Great the way they are, but the knowledge of all of this makes you so valuable in your field. What an asset you can be to others. Thanks for this excellent information. It must be such an emotional experience, but oh how comforting too when caring for someone else. Great Job !
Very informative video
thank you so much for your videos! Do you know a connection between focal dystonia and hair loss? pretty much every man I know with dystonia has some kind of hair loss. would be interested, if there is a connection and how to treat it in that case. Kind Regards
Hi Dr Gary, I'm a big fan and dig your channel. If a person uses minoxidil for a number of years then stops will the persons hairloss catch up to a point where it would have been if they had not used minoxidil. Basically if they stop the medication will their hair fall out to a point where it should have been without this medication or will it return to the same point as it was when they initially began the treatment?
Please make a video about Fibrosing Frontal Alopecia in women.
How about a video on hair transplant options for women?
What about prp and red light therapy on the scalp before resorting to finasteride/medications and surgery?
If I was a Norwood 6-7 I’d definitely continue medical therapy. I’d want my existing hair to be as strong and as stable as possible. A lot people might not be a great candidate initially but after a year of medical therapy, the calibre of donor hair may increase thus improving their overall candidacy for hair restoration surgery. There’s a good few NW6-7s RUclipsrs that are reliant on meds to maintain their transplant results
Bicalutamide + high dose estradiol can get you back from Norwood 6 to Norwood 1, while retaining the libido (bicalutamide alone wont be enough).
I'm going to check to see if you've done a vid on Rogaine for Women. I have a couple patches that just won't grow back from Chemo. Would like to hear what you think of Rogaine for Women and would it be likely to work or fail because the hair loss is chemo induced. Love your videos. BTW I'll be 70 in May.
Hi Doctor Gary, I would love to hear your opinion on stem cell treatment and ozone therapy for hair loss.
I’ve known many people to get these grafts and I’ve never seen one work long term and they always end up with the smiley face on the back of their head
Could you talk about verteporfin and it's uses in hair transplant? There's Dr. Bloxham from NY and Dr. Barghouthi who seem to have had promising results with regrowth of hair in the harvested donor region. It would be really interesting if you talked about that.
Dr. Gary any thoughts on stem cells for hair regrowth? Spring rejuvenation are making interesting claims
Holy cow a popular MD actually talking about benefits of FUT
Has there been any results from the Japanese hair follicle cloning trials ?
I think that went nowhere I heard some time ago, like the method just didn't work well enough
I asked chatgpt when follicle cloning would be possible and it said only in around 2030 - 2035. We'd have to wait a decade unfortunately
Nicely elaborated 🤗
@Doctor Gary Linkov are your shipments only limited to the US?
Slightly off-topic (but not really) - could you please make an analysis on the *French President Emmanuel Macron's potential hair transplant/ hair transformation* ? I've recently seen a picture of his wearing a mop of hair on the top of his head like a toupee (not toupee-shaming!) and was wondering if he did something or he just changed his hairdresser. His hair "profile" definitely changed from what I've seen before.
That's his real hair. I know a guy with French ancestry and he looks a lot like Macron and has the same hairline.
Is there anything that can be done for alopecia?
Could you please inform me of the anticipated availability of topical finasteride and minoxidil spray ?
What is your opinion on Scalp hair laser removal Dr. Linkov? Is it safe?
Hey doc, I may not have many donor hairs on my head, but I do have lots of hair elsewhere. Please use all the hairs in my armpits and nether regions to complete my look 😆
If you used all the hairs from your nether region wouldn't you end up looking like a dickhead?
If you're running light on donor grafts on the scalp would using body hair (like chest and legs) as donor grafts be a viable option?
Can you cover Dutasteride Mesotherapy and to compared to other methods and ranking by efficacy and side effects?
Are you able to do an updated video on oral medications and hair loss, particularly newer medications or changes to our understanding of side effects such as finasteride used to be linked to prostate cancer side effect and is now no longer.
It 😂actually a medication for prostate cancer
@marloncoley1810 It's not but thank you for that.
Hey Doc, what about body hair? Can we not use chest, beard, pubes for the crown?
Another great video Gary thank you. I'm working with my hair replacement. l about 6 or 7 years that's the picture of me in the profile. However over the last 6 months. However the last 6 months I've been taking breaks from wearing it and wearing a hat except when I want to go out and put the hair on. I've been doing derma stamping every two weeks. Oral 2.5 mgand topical minoxidil 5% proscar 1.25 mg. Its working. Im 50
you are so chill man
Dr. Linkov - Can you do a video going over essential oils and give your tips / opinions on the use of them for someone trying to avoid chemicals/meds? I really love all of your content and it has helped me so much so thank you!!!
forget it.. most of it is useless.. often even harsh on your scalp. there are no "good" studies, showing effects.
One surgeon said for the mid area he’d use beard hair; I don’t mind. The swirl is unknown, started dutasteride so will see. The problem is 3k grafts front, 3k mid, and 2k unknown in crown waiting for dutasteride and topical minoxidil to see what returns.
What about the hair cloning option? Any idea when that will be a general option?
Since you charge $30,000 for 4000 grafts... this is way out of the access for 99% of the people who need it.
Solve in Chicago charges $4.50 per graft. I used them a year ago and I'd rate my transplant an A+ for my receding hairline and a B for the crown.
for 4 k u can go to turkey and be treated like an absolute king
You can come to India and do it for 1000 dollars
@@mewmannamwem6087 they're all hair factories tho, in and out no aftercare, if you lose hair behind it or get a infection or the regrowth is bad they wont do anything to help you.
Go to turkey
Dr. Linkov, have you ever used Verteporfin in any of your hair transplant procedures?
Dr Zarev says is work but he doesn't use it (don't know why)
Can I use Topical Solution of Olive Oil with Fluocinolone Acetonide on my Transplated Area after 23 Days of Surgery
Hi Dr Gary what about PRP? Does it really work to grow back your hair?
I don’t mind natural ways to help hair loss but soon as you bring up surgery. You lost me😂 If i loose my hair or start thinning. Im just gonna embrace it. Life is what you make of it
What if you have small head and very thick donor area? Is it possible to have enough of a donor area to cover top of head?
Hi Dr Gary, I have an interesting question, that I have not seen a lot of info about.
So a few questions;
1.) hair harvested from the donor areas seem to be predominantly in the middle of the back. What about the Hairs at the bottom adjoining the neck, can they be used?
2.) you mentioned that on average, patients generally can use 6000-7000 grafts from the donor areas, does that apply for all races? I noticed for Asians the lower hairline at the back that I mentioned above, is far lower below the ear lobe than that of a Caucasians (eg, the hairline stops 1.5 inches below the ear where on a Caucasian, the hairline stops around/at the earlobe) I’m not sure whether that is the feature of having a less prominent/protruding occipital bone that makes the back of their head appear more flat, hence lowering that back hairline as a result… or simply they have more hairs at the back.. if this the case, they would technically have more hairs available to harvest than that of a Caucasian?
Thanks
I've tetsed Minoxidil for over 6 months and sadly it didn't worked
Now i'm testing Rosemary Oil and i'm still using my dermaroller 1-2x a week

Sorry that’s not gonna work bro, minoxidil didn’t work because of your sulfate. Take 3 Months stemoxydine and then directly after take topical minoxidil again and continue with the stemoxydine 1-2 times a week
@@wasgehtsiedasan6464 danke für deinen Tipp
Ich werde es probieren
Es ist wirklich deprimierend, wenn sich nach einem halben Jahr praktisch nichts getan hat.
Ich schneide meine Haare 1x im Monat auf 5mm runter und mache Fotos.. Aber selbst meine liebste konnte nicht sagen, welches das erste oder das aktuelle Bild ist.
Ich habe sogar extra eine spezielle Emulsion verwendet ohne Alkohol, da ich ansonsten eine extrem juckende und schuppige Kopfhaut bekomme.
Das Zeug kostet über 50€ je 100ml und auf Dauer wurde mir das zu teuer.
Aber ich gebe dem ganzen noch eine Chance 👍
Einen Dermaroller verwende ich übrigens auch 1-2x die Woche
@@TheChrisplayer94 ja kann ich verstehen aber emulsionen sind gut für die Kopfhaut aber nicht gut für die gains die penetrieren die haut nicht so gut wie Alkohol oder PG. schau ob du es nicht doch verträgst. Und was nimmst du sonst noch? Minoxidil ohne anti androgen oder dht blocker bringt nichts.
@@wasgehtsiedasan6464Natürlich kann Minoxidil auch ohne DHT blocker wirken...Minoxidil + Dermastamp, Rosmarin Öl & supplements sind ebenfalls wichtig.

does hair transplantation leave scars on the area where the hair was taken out? thanks
Dr. Linkov, Is Lev Pranov someone who had a hair transplant years ago? The pattern of his hair looks so odd. Is that what happens as people age? I wonder if meds would have helped him.
For those of us who in that position we all got very back in the 90's when Patric Stewart and Bruce Willis and Michael Jordan and The Rock all came on the scene.
Ive been using finasteride and minoxidil for 1.5 years now and it really hasnt done anything for me😢
Minoxidil doesn't work at all for about 20-25% of the population. I'm one of them.
Same
Same here, your not alone. Ive been using it for a yr and no obvious benefit.
Oral or topical Minoxidil ?
Try microneedling!
Do finasteride have effect on female hair loss?
I‘m suffering from male pattern hair loss for about half of my life.
I tried oral spironolactone, Cyproterone acetate+ Cyproterone compound for a long time until I faced Uterine fibroids. Now my Endocrinologist prescribed finasteride 5 mg.
If you have hair grafts, and DHT is a problem, the hair will be lost again, won't it? When does that happen? How is the hair kept?
I wanted to take finasteride for hair loss a few years ago, but my doctor advised me against it. He said that although it is approved, it is still a process that you set in motion in your body, because this is still an interference in the hormonal balance.
Your doctor misinformed you.
Either your doctor is an incompetent doctor, or you lied about a doctor saying that to you.
I just have had my hair and beard transplant one week ago.
After the transplant i issued a correction of assymetry and it will be done in half of month from now.
I am concerned about a movie I recently watched "Beard Transplant Failures! 3 Tips to Avoid it!"
All grafys were taken from the back and the side of the scalp. None were taken from neck or chest.
After watching that youtube video I am concerned that the beard with double and triple hair follicles might cause bumpyness of skin and unnatural look.
I do not know yet how it will look and whether it is true what was mentioned in that video.
But if it would be true, then during the scheduled correction I would request to take the hair transplanted to the beard as grafts (at least the double and triple hair follicles) to be re-used in correction of the symmetry on the head part of the transplant.
I have a question for you:
How much truth is in that video?
Can hair transplanted to the beard be reused again as a source? If yes, then should I hurry, or opposite: should I wait till hair falls out and regrows before it can be re-harvested?
(that way I would avoid overdepletion of the donor area and avoid the problems mentioned in the quoted video, plus that would leave space to put in the beard the chest and neck-beard hair instead).
A reaction video or a response to my comment would be greatly appreciated, as only 2 weeks remain now till the symmetry correction.
Thank you for your videos. You are doing a great job and increasing awareness.
Hey doctor, what about if you have retrograde alopecia?
You need Dutasteride, Finasteride might not be strong enough to stop and regrow hair in the long run. Search the video: How to stop hair loss from diffuse thinning (dupa) and retrograde alopecia by Haircafe
Can you make a video on thinning eyebrows? 🙏 Im curious if finasteride/dutasteride would work on thin eyebrows applied topically on someone with androgenic alopecia. Thanks for great content, long time viewer ✨
apply Minoxidil directly to the eyebrows. It takes awhile but it does work.
@@JasonS-eo7sh Thanks for the tip! 🙏
minoxidil can be extremely effective for this, my eyebrows doubled in thickness. If you take oral minoxidil it will even thicken the eyelashes
@@Nathan47223 Yay! Thanks!
Just one question. How many grafts could you get from body hair in average plz?
Is there a way to know if you are going to be a Norwood 6 or 7 before it happens?
There's a small spot on the right side of my hairline that had receded a bit. Makes my hairline look about 5 degrees slanted. Do you think I should just transplant my beard hair to there instead? I never really want my neck hairs anyway. Tired of shaving there.
Won't FUE surgery also not allow shaving the head ?
Sorry one more question. What about that neck hair below where I cut the hairline. Is that a good donor area? Because that hair is useless to me.
Also wasn't there movement towards stem cell hair growth to produce more grafts in a Petrie dish?
I did a hair transplant 27 days ago. I disnt experience any shock loss yet. Wondering of it s still possible to fall out or keeps growing.
I hope we can organize to make full accessible body modification (being able to look how ever you want) a goal for world scientist
Honestly I lost my hair a while ago, and it sucks. But at the end of the day for those people who are determined to get their hair back, it seems as though the ones who achieve success are the ones who commit to sticking to several different things that they do for an extended period of time and are very committed to. But as for me? I'm not interested in jumping through hoops to get my hair back. Even if they were to come out with a pill I take every day to get my hair back I wouldn't do it. If some day they ever come out with something that was a more permanent solution, I'd consider it. But otherwise I'm just not that bothered with it, and I get the feeling most men in the long run wouldn't stick to anything long term.
What are your thoughts on using the sides as a donor area? I've done 2 transplants and am happy with the results but want to improve density on top, though the donor area feels getting thinner so I don't want to use it for a third time
How many grafts have u used already
@@abc2cratec about 3600/4000 grafts. Donor area still looks really good, but I would now want to opt for the sides
What about shaping the hairline from the neck by taking all of the hair for grafts from back of the upper neck instead of just taking hair evenly from the donor area? Often that area gets trimmed at the barber anyway. And can hair taken from somewhere else from the body transform to the kind of hair that grows in the head or does it stay coarse and short? Also is it ppssible to get hair grafts from some one else or does body reject them like organ transplants?
It rejects it...
Has there been any advancement in cloning hair follicles that would help overcome having to harvest so much hair?
Yes, a Japanese physician can perform then either now or real soon. The cost is crazy high though.
I dont mistake it has been done approx 1 year ago.. (don't remembre on wich study it was but think it was posted on Reddit) and it was 50/50
Hey Doctor. Why have I been losing hair in the DHT resistant areas and hair is missing, shorter, or thinner where it hasn’t been growing as much lately.
So... if a person just filled in the entire head with a few thousand grafts, could you just then fill it in with fibers? I'm guessing that would probably really make a huge difference.
I'm happy that I have what I have. I'm about a norwood 3. I really want a transplant to give me my hair line back. I have a good 2 fingers from that top wrinkle on my forehead. I'd rather it be 1 finger (well.. really I'd love 0 fingers but still)
For now Fin/Min are helping me keep what I have. I do hope to be able to get FUE though.
I actually started going bald in my senior year of high-school. I'm 37 and not completely bald on the top of my head.
If you’re only having 1700 grafts for the frontal region would you favour FUT or FUE?
