I have a funny story about hair transplant which happened 25 years ago. Basically a person I know went to turkey for hair transplant which they didn’t use natural hair rather Synthetic for the transplant. So that guy that got the transplants goes out after his head healed and went to a bar got drunk and got in fight in the BAR and when the police arrested and proceeded and they gave him jail time sentence, and in prison they shaved the heads of all the convicts so there won’t be a lice problem , and the guy was screaming and cussing in English trying to tell them the hair doesn’t grow back however the damage was done so till this day his baldness looks very weird😅😅morel of the story is don’t get the synthetic type of hair only use nature Hair Follicles and after you get it stay home and don’t get into a bar fight in turkey. 😅🤣😂
I had mine done, but after 4 months nothing had grown, after 6 concerningly still nothing much, then 7, 8, 9 months it finally started to come back in clumps. I'm nearly 10 months post op and it's looking like this guy's after 4. I'm happy with it and I know it's still coming through, but it took a lot longer than most others have said theirs took. March 20th 2022 done and now I'm happy and it's barely noticable.
Where you using Minoxidil? My husband had a transplant and didn’t use it. His took longer to come in than projected too. It only speeds up the process and doesn’t effect the final outcome. However, it does preserve the natural hair you have left.
I had mine done too, but it's the hair on my second head.. called pubes.. back in 2019 I got it. Skip time now in 2023 February it's really majestic the legth is like my own beard too, so I'm happy with that. I tried shaving it to a heart shape to see if it grows back, well yeah it did grow back in like 7-5 minutes. max lenght. Ikr I was like omg that was fast. ridiculously fast man. so yeah. No regret at all getting a hair transplant in thailand (+happy ending). Oh yea the price was 6k usd (4k for happy ending tax)
I was in that clinic in May!!! They saw me on short notice (I live in a neighbouring country) and I had so many questions and was in the middle of a hair freakout. A clinic where I live had recommended 2000 grafts without ever even checking my head. This clinic brought me to the doctor and took time to check my scalp and hairline and discuss my history of hair loss. They then advised that they won't do a hair transplant because I had diffuse thinning and I had not tried finasteride or minoxidil, so I should try that for a year first as a hair transplant is likely not necessary. They then took 360 pictures record of my hair and let me know to keep in contact over the coming months. Total cost for consultation - ZERO. I asked if I have to buy the finasteride and minoxidil from them, they advised there was no need because it is cheaper from pharmacies. So they made ZERO money from it but the advice they gave was absolutely gold. 7 months later, my hair is 90% full from the medical therapy. I have some loss at my temples and hairline, and I know for sure if I decide to do the hairline in future, it'll be going to them. Amazing to see a clinic legitimately care and put what is best for the patient above profit. Amazing. I also showed them your channel when I was there , so I think they are subscribers now 😎
@@recuerdos2457 Thailand has a dual pricing system - one for Thais & another for foreigners (even non-whites). It's the price for being a tourist there. I'm SE Asian & I paid foreigner price for entrance fees too (temple, zoo, national park, etc).
Sonny does tend to make dramatic statements for the entertainment factor... I respect him for his honesty about his insecurities and what he has done to cope, such as his weight loss journey and his hair implants. Good on you for being human in front of the camera.❤️
Anyone notice Dr. Linkov’s facial hair growth specifically the eyebrows, upper lip, and even some eyelashes. I wonder what you’re doing differently, definitely a lot of growth compared to a year ago or perhaps even the last 6months. Pretty cool to see. 👏😄
Sonny is the man and I had to stop by to make sure that you were doing him right. I have been watching him for years and have similar hair, so I was shocked to learn he had that done, but it has worked out great for him.....for a guy who wears a bandana all the time lol.
well, it is not really much about looking young forever....being bold doesnt make anyone ultimately old. The issue is that some heads look great bald, even better than with hair....and some heads looks just bad.
@Jonathan Birch You going with too much science and emotions in it. Some man are lucky, some not, some man look great bald, some dont. Some can “not care” no matter what, some have a job where good looks help etc etc
Great content, Dr! It's great to see your success with your channel continue to grow. Thanks for the informative and patient way you teach us in these videos. 😊❤
@drgarylinkov overall, did Sonny make a good clinic choice? Just looking around to get a transplant done this year. Thank you so much for all your videos. You are so informative and genuinely care about everyone's experience
I had a DHI hair transplant in Thailand for around that price and it was a really good experience. The only painful moment was the PFP when they take your blood plasma and then insert it into your scalp. 6 months of oral minoxidil, finasteride and hair vitamins was around $100. I also had lots of strict post-procedures like limiting exercise, alcohol, any sort of weight loss etc, but I didn’t stick to those after 2 weeks.
@@BlackDeath12345You only feel in when the anaesthesia wears off. But the operation itself you feel no pain. Honestly i was worried because it take ages to grow but then when your body accepts it , it grows normally.
Again so much thank you for your videos as they are very informative and as you know, it is a sensitive topic and rather than trying to create sales you are honestly giving your opinion which is fantastic. Please keep doing what you are doing as you are helping a lot of people regardless if they are directly your patient or not.
I just love how mellow and "Zen" you are Doc! Your voice is low and kinda soothing! I love watching your videos, not just your reaction shots but for learning stuff about your field and others. You do a great job! Thanks!
it’s normally hard for me to stay focus and watch a video straight through but this surprisingly caught my attention ! i enjoyed the contrast of your calm demeanor & his comedic style
I'm enjoying your commentary, and I like your facial expressions. You've got an honest, kind of whimsical look about you. My good friend is a plastic surgeon, and I've learned a lot from him over the last 12 years.
I had major shock loss (entire top of head bald) my first year after my hair transplant. I was probably a Norwood 2…Went to a very well regarded, internationally known surgeon…Good, fairly undetectable, long lasting result (still looks good ten years later) ultimately, in reality though, it was a lot to roll with.
Your own hair regrowth is amazing!! I lost most of my eyebrows and eyelashes for some reason. I have been using Latisse on my eyelashes and off-label on my brows. I am mostly happy with the results. I wish you continued success with regaining your hair, Dr. Gary.
It has been over a year since I had seen my grandson who is 18 years old. I visited him because I wanted to see him off before he joined the army. To my surprise he had already buzz cut his hair, but what was shocking was that he is already severely balding! It is the type that the temples have balded almost halfway to the center of his scalp. If he is like this now what will it be like in 10 years? I am broken hearted for him since he had such beautiful thick blonde curly hair. Doctor, could you please do a video about what can be done for patients who are experiencing large hair loss while in their teens?
@Mamon saleh I am so sorry to hear that. Normally teens don't have to concern themselves with this problem. Have you tried topical Minoxodil? I have been using it for several years because as we women age most of us can have some significant hair thinning and loss. For me I can still have shedding but it always grows back at least. I seriously think it has kept me from having bald spots. I wish you the best. There are things that can be done.
@@Mamon_Saleh No, I don't think that would make it worse. The only problem is if you stopped before you gave it enough time to work for you. It is not fast. I would say you need to use it religiously for 3-6 months to see if it is helping. You might go even longer, we all are different in how we respond to medicines.
Always remember, the likelyhood that people will post the video of a failed hair transplant is lower than that of a sucessful one. This may lead to a skewed picture in favor of the hair transplant industry. This does not mean that getting a hairtransplant is a bad idea, just that there may be a lot of dirt under the rug, so be vary of bad clinics.
I'm assuming he got it over there is because he also lives over seas. He's married and lives over there with his wife. He has a house where his channel team works there too
As a guy who started thinning in my early twenties and by my thirties said "fuckit" and started shaving my head, I enjoy watching these types of videos now and then. It all comes down to VANITY...how comfortable are YOU with how you look as opposed to how you think others look at you. I thought about 'hair treatments' for years and in the meantime wore a baseball cap. Maybe just shave that sh*t, get some sun your melon (a bald head with a tan goes a long way), save money on barber trips and shampoo/conditioner, maybe grow a goatee? Worked for me.
Some people head/jaw shape don’t suit the bald look, or their build, skinny guys with gaunt faces don’t tend to suit it. Which is me screwed if my mpb moves beyond mild temple area before I manage to bulk up more.
Mine is a funnier story. When I was 15, a buddy told me he could cut my hair. I was skeptical but said ok. He screwed up and shaved a path through my hair, so I had to shave my head completely. I noticed how much better it was after that(free haircuts, wake up ready to go, more aerodynamic lol)… anyways, years later it starts thinning out and people think I shaved my head because of that instead of a screwed up haircut 25 years ago lol
@@ptracey5998 That's your personal opinion, not a factual statement. ALSO...if you read my comment, I said it's about being comfortable with yourself...NOT what other people think. 'Vanity' is exactly that, worrying about how others see you. "12 or so years ago"...yeah and prior to that, guys did what (in MY opinion) looks even worse...perpetually wear a baseball cap OR did the 'horseshoe' mullet. Just shave it. To even make the comment you did I can safely assume that you are either female or are not experiencing hair loss and therefore aren't even qualified to weigh in an opinion.
Most women prefer bald to hair plugs and all that jazz. I don't know one single woman who wouldn't run when they see the fake hair. And yes, we spot it from miles, doesn't look natural at all.
to be fair he used to be pretty fat and then lost all the weight, so the general overall sagging skin on the face/body probably adds to him looking more aged in your eyes id guess?
I have to ask Dr. L. Have you personally had any plastic surgery? Because you are perfectly beautiful, and not many people are perfect like this? I hope I'm not offending you by asking this? 😊
Sonny’s RUclips show is awesome! I had watched the episode covering his hair transplant, but his channel is about reviewing food from around the world.
What many people don't realize about hair transplants is that it's not a "one and done" procedure; hair behind the transplanted ones will continue to thin and recede thereby necessitating subsequent transplants.
I always say embrace your baldness. We also have a guy in our town that had a hair transplant. He is basically the joke of the town. Everyone just sees him as a very insecure guy that can't accept who he is. People will notice if you try to hide your baldness.
Thank you for pointing out that wasn’t a widows peak. I point stuff like that out and I get shouted at n told I’m wrong, even though I’m a hairdresser n I definitely know what a widows peak is and a cows lick.

And don't you think it's possible that that bandanna could be possibly pulling your hair out, like when a woman wears a full cap wig too often it causes breakage and bald spots
Im at a norwood 2 or 3 and I've been in this range for quite a few years now. When my hairline recedes too far, I will just shave my head and get it over. No expensive hair surgery or medicines to keep what hair I have.
Lol, maybe. He's basically been around the world at this point, based in Vietnam. At least whatever effort he's not been putting into his skin has gone into his body! He's made quite the transformation
Reminder that medical therapies matter-- ashwaganda is an OTC adaptogen that can help get your neurotransmitters back into balance. . . and since a lot of men start losing T as they age, this also means that it tends to boost T, and in turn confidence.

I had pretty bad balding at 22 already, went fully bald with 24 and never looked back. Most of the guys getting hair transplants would probably also look pretty good, if not better, with a shaved head instead. No more worries and no cost.
@@cy9nvs which is why any attractive or wealthy man does it. I'm also balding, so I get the coping, but you gotta let go of the delusion that it's a choice when you don't have the money or technology hasn't progressed enough. It doesn't look good, and I commend any guy who can avoid it
4:03 "if we're working on the eyebrows..." have people had hair transplanted from the back of their heads to their eyebrows? Letting that grow an inch would look freaky.
Why do People only talk about Thai Turkey Mexico hair transplant ? In India where I'm going to get it done its only india 10 a hair means 12 cents per hair as lowest which means only $250 to $350 which is way less then what I was quoted here in US $20,000
I just accepted that I am going bald and just shaved early on. No one noticed that I lost even more hair and I am usually known as the "bald guy over there". I am fine with that. I dont need to spend hours trying to fix my remaining hair to make it look full, I dont need to pay the barber one more cent. I dont need to take hormones that have all sorts of negative effects, dont need special shampoos or whatever. I just use the same stuff I clean my hands with when I want to clean my shiny bald head and I have no problems with flakey skin ever since I shaved my head. And if some girl doesnt want to date me because I am bald then I probably dodged a bullet anyways (hint, most guys go bald eventually). So, I think that hair or a lack thereof, never was the problem. If you get a transplant you just hide the symptoms but you will never be able to accept who you actually are.
Same I'm super poor, so i just shave my head but I also don't worship ran through women so if you want women then waste money on looks, if you don't care about ran through come dumpsters then it's not necessary
Thanks for this video! I had 2,276 grafts for frontotemporal recession done at the same clinic a few days ago for just over 2000 USD. Heard about your channel from another patient in the lobby who mentioned this video, definitely subscribing. Dr. Patty and her assistants took great care of me, and fed me some really delicious chicken fried rice after the procedure (which I ate while they rubbed antibiotics on my head). I'm non-binary and they were super welcoming and understanding of my hair goals. They even had a third gender option on the intake form which is pretty rare in Thailand. I went with Hairtran after talking to a trans woman who had great results from the same clinic. Really happy with the hairline they designed for me, nice round shape and natural-looking irregularities. Now the long recovery and growing out process begins. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone, happy to answer any questions folks have.
so, you talking about being non binary, and friends who is trans woman....that basically means that you both went there to treat male pattern baldness. I love how nature doesnt care about made up genders :D
Hi, thanks for your input. I live in Phuket and I'm interested in this clinic for my Hair Transplant. Can you please tell me what was done by the doctor and what was done by the assistant during the entire procedure (hairline design, extraction from the donor area, implants in the receiving area, etc ...) ? Is there a formula where everything is done by the doctor herself ? How many consultations have you had before the procedure ? Thanks in advance for your help. How long did you book the surgery in advance (how long did you wait between the consultation and the surgery ?) ?
@@eicisback I have finished surgery at that clinic just recently. First of all, the never ending question “ surgeon or technicians”, doesn’t matter. They are very well trained, many times better than the doctor. So do not focus on who is doing what. If you choose good clinic, they do things good. Period. It is irrelevant who does what. When you go for a blood tests, nurse will take your blood probably less painfully than a doctor if u know what I mean. What is important tho is, that the planning and consultation is done with the doctor and that the doctor is still around during the procedure. Here, both my first visits were about talking what to expect what can go wrong etc… drawing the hairline, all done by the doctor here. When u come for the surgery day, the doctor draws everything on your head again, but already like precisely, not just a line where the hair will be, but that pre-op line. Having two meetings in person instead of coming just for the day of surgery probably doesnt make a difference, saves some time I guess, maybe a bit more comfortable for everyone. This clinic is informing you about everything perfectly, they dont leave any topic untouched…the surgery, no pain at all , at least for me, and overall super satisfied with them. Very professional. Time from the consultation to the surgery, depends only on free slots. U can decide on Monday and have surgery on Tuesday if they have time. Unless you are taking some medication that would need to be first worn off. As Sonny made a quite some marketing for them, and then this account did similar, when they reviewed it, you can probably expect them to be super busy with much longer waiting times. I was waiting like 3 weeks or so, but I talked to them right after I saw the Sonny’s video, so I was still early. Now there would be probably much longer waiting time. I have asked and they said they have huge influx currently. Maybe the price will increase with time too, if the influx will keep coming?
Please talk about the giant zits that occur as a result of having a transpant. Had I known about this prior, I would've avoided having it done really. Also, please talk about the different sizes of needles they use, because the one they used on me, left noticable large pore holes where each hair was placed. I've been wearing a baseball hat for the past 20 years ever since. And they used too much numbing agent, I have about 50-70% feeling. And they placed my hairline much lower than my original normal hairline was, even though they had a photo of it. I got stomach flu from bad orange juice that tasted off, they provided at lunch break. I bet people want to know all about these types of humbling concerns within this democracy.
@@anonymousanonymous4690 are you suggesting that zits dont appear that take chunks of noticable meat away? Or the size of the needles would somehow be smaller so they wont leave a stab wound that remains visible? Or the purple tint your scalp has for years after?
@@mararoxa2275 Why would i know it was off prior to drinking it if i was expecting it to be ok in the first place? I took a drink, and then noticed it was off, rather than to do the smell test. It complicated things, as i was on a empty stomach and seemed to have a stomach flu side effect. The food they offered for the lunch turned out to be some type of gamey meat flavored stew type of substance. Had I been aware of that prior to arrival, would've made sure to bring something that didn't seem like soylent green past the best before date.
Another great video, you got yourself a new subscriber tonight! I'd love to see your opinion on if Margot Robbie has had cosmetic surgery. There is a lot of controversy on what/if she has had anything done.
If you have to take finasteride after the transplant, I feel like it would be a good idea to take it for a few months beforehand. That drug does not suit everybody, and if you find you can't take it long-term, you don't want to have to deal with having an immortal fringe as well as being bald.
I remember watching some news station in the early 2000's and they said they had a cure for hair loss and said it would take about 10yrs to be available. it's been more than 10 yrs
Love your presentation Dr Linkov, have you thought about making vids regarding the history of plastic surgery? Early prothetics going all the way back to medieval times, the huge leap after WW1, when millions of soldiers/civilians suffered from disfiguring wounds brought upon by artillery and shrapnel
One of the points you mentioned about therapy after the procedure, is there a comparison video between different options and what is the most safest and valued??
I have no hair. Was born with no hair. Never had it. Don't miss what I've never had. If I want hair it's in boxes upstairs coloured and styled 😂 I couldn't do this. And there's no guarantee with monilethrix anyway. Thanks for this one 💕
No exercise for 2-3 weeks?!!! What about if someone does regular cardio, that's more than enough time to lose significant gains in cardiovascular endurance and bone density. What about lifting weights/ calisthenics? 🤔
@@johny5400 Yep it's true, rather surprising I know. I don't have the studies to hand, but I remember reading them and being really surprised. Obviously here the word 'significant' means statistically significant/ there's a measured change. It doesn't necessarily mean 'a lot' and it doesn't mean you can't make those gains back in as many weeks.
a few years ago the grafts were harvested by making a fairly substantial incision in the back of the scalp, extracting that skin strip, and sewing it up…is there a better non invasive way of harvesting the grafts, or is it pretty much the same. I have had a couple of transplants, and the graft placement were tedious and time consuming but never a problem, however the incision, sutures, drainage and recovery. from sourcing the. grafts was invasive, painful later on, and leaves scars on the back of the scalp
He mentioned this in the video. It sounds like you had the FUT method. Where a strip of scalp is taken from the donor area, and the follicles are extracted, then implanted into the recipient area. With the FUE method, the follicles are extracted from the donor area, then implanted into the recipient area. There is no cutting or suturing involved. Just taking the follicles from one area, and putting them somewhere else. I'm sure, with that, the recovery time is less painful (if any) and shorter.
Thanks for making these informational videos, Dr. Linkov. I just wanted to get your thoughts on if the market for hair transplant has significantly shifted overseas because of the difference in cost. If so, could you shed some light on some ways American practitioners are retaining patients to get their procedures in the states?
Dr I need help! I'm loosing obsene amount of hair after a salon based chemical straightening. The chemical wasn't washed out properly of my head and my scalp health deteriorarted initially. Also, my hair were damaged. I've lost more than 60 percent hair in 6 months all over scalp and still shedding isn't subsiding. I can see regrowth. I'm taking treatment from the very beginning. I've taken hair fact and other prescribed vitamins. The hairloss was extremely severe. Is there a chance that my follicles got damaged as there was no burn! Please suggest the right line of treatment. I was suggested minoxidil but didn't use as it started as talogen effluvium and i thought that id have to rely on it lifetime. So, I took homeopathy treatment. However, it turned to fphl so, I'm really looking forward to more practical allopathy treatments. Please suggest Minoxidil, gfc? How to go about it?
What can be some of the side effects of the medical therapy or whatever medication you have to take after the procedure? And usually how long do you have to take it for?
The difference in energy between these two guys is hilarious 😂

I underwent hair transplantation twice . The surgeon did a great job and I’ve never been happier with the results.
Who did you go too?
Thanks for sharing that fact... Why'd you need 2 procedures? Also, the person below, asked, "Who did you go too?"
@@millions2nette Because more than 2500+ grafts require more sessions.
I'm going bald and I'm pushing 40. I'm fine with it. Never planned on trying to look young forever. Good luck fellas.
well, it is not really much about looking young forever....being bold doesnt make anyone ultimately old. The issue is that some heads look great bald, even better than with hair....and some heads looks just bad.
99% of people don’t care, you are bald when you are old - there are probably bigger things to worry about
@@edpayne2990 I dont really think that 70yrs + are going often for hair transplants;)
That's the spirit. I'm 40 and Bic it.
@Jonathan Birch You going with too much science and emotions in it.
Some man are lucky, some not, some man look great bald, some dont. Some can “not care” no matter what, some have a job where good looks help etc etc
Great content, Dr! It's great to see your success with your channel continue to grow. Thanks for the informative and patient way you teach us in these videos. 😊❤
Thank you!
@@drgarylinkov find another career mate non one takes you seriously come on man you have no hair
@drgarylinkov overall, did Sonny make a good clinic choice? Just looking around to get a transplant done this year. Thank you so much for all your videos. You are so informative and genuinely care about everyone's experience
your voice is so soothing 🤗 cheers from France!
Dr Gary literally looks like an angel
I had a DHI hair transplant in Thailand for around that price and it was a really good experience. The only painful moment was the PFP when they take your blood plasma and then insert it into your scalp. 6 months of oral minoxidil, finasteride and hair vitamins was around $100. I also had lots of strict post-procedures like limiting exercise, alcohol, any sort of weight loss etc, but I didn’t stick to those after 2 weeks.
is that a quick process? it can't be worse then dental work..
@@BlackDeath12345You only feel in when the anaesthesia wears off. But the operation itself you feel no pain.
Honestly i was worried because it take ages to grow but then when your body accepts it , it grows normally.
Which clinic did you go for the treatment?
@@David-xz7tz It was BHC - Bangkok Hair Clinic. They do a lot of transplants on foreign patients and hair types, so no worries there.
@@ChimpRiothey! I’m looking into that clinic. How were the results? Was it an FUE transplant?
Thanks
Again so much thank you for your videos as they are very informative and as you know, it is a sensitive topic and rather than trying to create sales you are honestly giving your opinion which is fantastic. Please keep doing what you are doing as you are helping a lot of people regardless if they are directly your patient or not.
That’s our goal!
I just love how mellow and "Zen" you are Doc! Your voice is low and kinda soothing! I love watching your videos, not just your reaction shots but for learning stuff about your field and others. You do a great job! Thanks!
Dr. looks and sounds like a kind person.
it’s normally hard for me to stay focus and watch a video straight through but this surprisingly caught my attention ! i enjoyed the contrast of your calm demeanor & his comedic style
I'm enjoying your commentary, and I like your facial expressions. You've got an honest, kind of whimsical look about you. My good friend is a plastic surgeon, and I've learned a lot from him over the last 12 years.
I had major shock loss (entire top of head bald) my first year after my hair transplant. I was probably a Norwood 2…Went to a very well regarded, internationally known surgeon…Good, fairly undetectable, long lasting result (still looks good ten years later) ultimately, in reality though, it was a lot to roll with.
What does it mean when you say it was a lot to roll with?
A lot to deal with. Frankly, traumatizing.
Can you give me where and the name of the doctor that did your hair transplant.
@@AM-np3hf Are you AM Hoops?
Your own hair regrowth is amazing!! I lost most of my eyebrows and eyelashes for some reason. I have been using Latisse on my eyelashes and off-label on my brows. I am mostly happy with the results. I wish you continued success with regaining your hair, Dr. Gary.
Castor oil works great for lashes, lengthening and thickening. Cheap, no side effects.
It has been over a year since I had seen my grandson who is 18 years old. I visited him because I wanted to see him off before he joined the army. To my surprise he had already buzz cut his hair, but what was shocking was that he is already severely balding! It is the type that the temples have balded almost halfway to the center of his scalp. If he is like this now what will it be like in 10 years? I am broken hearted for him since he had such beautiful thick blonde curly hair. Doctor, could you please do a video about what can be done for patients who are experiencing large hair loss while in their teens?
I'm the same. I'm having a heart attack when i look in the mirror
@Mamon saleh I am so sorry to hear that. Normally teens don't have to concern themselves with this problem. Have you tried topical Minoxodil? I have been using it for several years because as we women age most of us can have some significant hair thinning and loss. For me I can still have shedding but it always grows back at least. I seriously think it has kept me from having bald spots. I wish you the best. There are things that can be done.
@@cellgrrl i tried monoxidel then stopped. Did that make it even worse?
@@Mamon_Saleh No, I don't think that would make it worse. The only problem is if you stopped before you gave it enough time to work for you. It is not fast. I would say you need to use it religiously for 3-6 months to see if it is helping. You might go even longer, we all are different in how we respond to medicines.
@@cellgrrl i only used it for 2 months then stopped. Did i did a mistake by this cuz my hair got worse after that
Never expected to see Sonny here!
Sonny is awesome!
You sound tired in this video Dr Gary. Hopefully you’re getting enough sleep chief, don’t burn out 👍

@@kerrian4564 thank you
@@kitty_s23456 😂😂😂😂 oh,, that lordship thing!!!
Always remember, the likelyhood that people will post the video of a failed hair transplant is lower than that of a sucessful one.
This may lead to a skewed picture in favor of the hair transplant industry.
This does not mean that getting a hairtransplant is a bad idea, just that there may be a lot of dirt under the rug, so be vary of bad clinics.
Gary you're so calm and informative, i feel like i should watch your content whenever i'm feeling anxious hah
I'm assuming he got it over there is because he also lives over seas. He's married and lives over there with his wife. He has a house where his channel team works there too
Marriage makes people age faster
he lives in vietnam, so, nextdoor....when it comes to Vietnam itself, you dont want any procedure there lol
Lets not sugar coat anything here, the price probably played a huge role as well.
@@direct2397 No, he done it there because the flight is one hour from his home.

I freaking love The Best Ever Food Review Show!!
Gary! You have eyebrows, eyelashes and stubble!! 😄 When did it return? Love your videos ☺️
As a guy who started thinning in my early twenties and by my thirties said "fuckit" and started shaving my head, I enjoy watching these types of videos now and then. It all comes down to VANITY...how comfortable are YOU with how you look as opposed to how you think others look at you. I thought about 'hair treatments' for years and in the meantime wore a baseball cap. Maybe just shave that sh*t, get some sun your melon (a bald head with a tan goes a long way), save money on barber trips and shampoo/conditioner, maybe grow a goatee? Worked for me.
Some people head/jaw shape don’t suit the bald look, or their build, skinny guys with gaunt faces don’t tend to suit it. Which is me screwed if my mpb moves beyond mild temple area before I manage to bulk up more.
Mine is a funnier story. When I was 15, a buddy told me he could cut my hair. I was skeptical but said ok. He screwed up and shaved a path through my hair, so I had to shave my head completely. I noticed how much better it was after that(free haircuts, wake up ready to go, more aerodynamic lol)… anyways, years later it starts thinning out and people think I shaved my head because of that instead of a screwed up haircut 25 years ago lol
A bald head doesnt look that good. It wasn't that common to shave it either until around 12 or so years ago.
@@ptracey5998 That's your personal opinion, not a factual statement. ALSO...if you read my comment, I said it's about being comfortable with yourself...NOT what other people think. 'Vanity' is exactly that, worrying about how others see you. "12 or so years ago"...yeah and prior to that, guys did what (in MY opinion) looks even worse...perpetually wear a baseball cap OR did the 'horseshoe' mullet. Just shave it. To even make the comment you did I can safely assume that you are either female or are not experiencing hair loss and therefore aren't even qualified to weigh in an opinion.
Most women prefer bald to hair plugs and all that jazz. I don't know one single woman who wouldn't run when they see the fake hair. And yes, we spot it from miles, doesn't look natural at all.
My God! That dude is 37? I always thought he was over 50 years old.
to be fair he used to be pretty fat and then lost all the weight, so the general overall sagging skin on the face/body probably adds to him looking more aged in your eyes id guess?
@@nagariboshiwolf Could be...
Doesn't look like he took care of his skin when he younger.
I just said the same thing! I said around 47 though. He really needs to stay out of the sun!
Nooo, 50 is too much but in his 40s yes.
I love this guy so glad your covering his story 😊
Wow... mind blowing. Very informative. I have learned through your channel about surgeries to the body that I could not have ever imagined.
Agreed.
I have to ask Dr. L. Have you personally had any plastic surgery? Because you are perfectly beautiful, and not many people are perfect like this? I hope I'm not offending you by asking this? 😊
I’m not in need of a hair transplant, but I enjoy the channel and all the information that’s provided, so I never miss a video. Thank you!
Sonny’s RUclips show is awesome! I had watched the episode covering his hair transplant, but his channel is about reviewing food from around the world.
The advantage of no alcohol for 2 months = no stupid choices, including in the healing process
Wow..both my favourite RUclipsrs💜
They did a great job, I think Thai ppl have the image to me of detail oriented patient and artistic, all are good quality for this job
He looks fine to me . Also love his food review channel ❤
Yea I wouldn’t bother if I was him
What many people don't realize about hair transplants is that it's not a "one and done" procedure; hair behind the transplanted ones will continue to thin and recede thereby necessitating subsequent transplants.
I always say embrace your baldness. We also have a guy in our town that had a hair transplant. He is basically the joke of the town. Everyone just sees him as a very insecure guy that can't accept who he is. People will notice if you try to hide your baldness.
I love Sonny tho, my dad and I loved watching him during pandemic before I moved away for work. Miss you, dad!
It always blows me away people do this to themselves! If you don't like my face well that's definitely your problem not mine!

Hair transplant is not exactly cutting edge tech, it's not like only western countries can do it. The problem with going overseas is the aftercare.
And don't you think it's possible that that bandanna could be possibly pulling your hair out, like when a woman wears a full cap wig too often it causes breakage and bald spots
Im at a norwood 2 or 3 and I've been in this range for quite a few years now. When my hairline recedes too far, I will just shave my head and get it over. No expensive hair surgery or medicines to keep what hair I have.
2:41 hes only 37? I guess he skipped sunscreen wherever he went, thats rough
Lol, maybe. He's basically been around the world at this point, based in Vietnam. At least whatever effort he's not been putting into his skin has gone into his body! He's made quite the transformation
Looks normal to me. How is a 37 year old supposed to look? Please don't base your answer on celebrities.

Reminder that medical therapies matter-- ashwaganda is an OTC adaptogen that can help get your neurotransmitters back into balance. . . and since a lot of men start losing T as they age, this also means that it tends to boost T, and in turn confidence. And while we're speaking on vitamins that many people lack-- b1, b1, b1, b1, b1.
So all in all, Sonny did a good job of vlogging and explaining the process.

Normal price for hair transplants in Thailand is around $1500-$1700 only. $3000 is too high.
I had pretty bad balding at 22 already, went fully bald with 24 and never looked back.
Most of the guys getting hair transplants would probably also look pretty good, if not better, with a shaved head instead. No more worries and no cost.

4:03 "if we're working on the eyebrows..." have people had hair transplanted from the back of their heads to their eyebrows? Letting that grow an inch would look freaky.
Why do People only talk about Thai Turkey Mexico hair transplant ? In India where I'm going to get it done its only india 10 a hair means 12 cents per hair as lowest which means only $250 to $350 which is way less then what I was quoted here in US $20,000
Thank you for your videos! Always so interesting to see through another persons eyes
I just accepted that I am going bald and just shaved early on. No one noticed that I lost even more hair and I am usually known as the "bald guy over there".
I am fine with that. I dont need to spend hours trying to fix my remaining hair to make it look full, I dont need to pay the barber one more cent.
I dont need to take hormones that have all sorts of negative effects, dont need special shampoos or whatever.
I just use the same stuff I clean my hands with when I want to clean my shiny bald head and I have no problems with flakey skin ever since I shaved my head.
And if some girl doesnt want to date me because I am bald then I probably dodged a bullet anyways (hint, most guys go bald eventually).
So, I think that hair or a lack thereof, never was the problem.
If you get a transplant you just hide the symptoms but you will never be able to accept who you actually are.
Same I'm super poor, so i just shave my head but I also don't worship ran through women so if you want women then waste money on looks, if you don't care about ran through come dumpsters then it's not necessary
Daamn shots fireeed. I died when he called out Akon’s hairlineeee. The shade henny, the shaadeee
Thanks for this video! I had 2,276 grafts for frontotemporal recession done at the same clinic a few days ago for just over 2000 USD. Heard about your channel from another patient in the lobby who mentioned this video, definitely subscribing. Dr. Patty and her assistants took great care of me, and fed me some really delicious chicken fried rice after the procedure (which I ate while they rubbed antibiotics on my head). I'm non-binary and they were super welcoming and understanding of my hair goals. They even had a third gender option on the intake form which is pretty rare in Thailand. I went with Hairtran after talking to a trans woman who had great results from the same clinic. Really happy with the hairline they designed for me, nice round shape and natural-looking irregularities. Now the long recovery and growing out process begins. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone, happy to answer any questions folks have.
What’s the name of the clinic?
@@MANDINGO74 Hairtran Clinic, Bangkok Thailand. 👌
so, you talking about being non binary, and friends who is trans woman....that basically means that you both went there to treat male pattern baldness. I love how nature doesnt care about made up genders :D
Hi, thanks for your input.
I live in Phuket and I'm interested in this clinic for my Hair Transplant.
Can you please tell me what was done by the doctor and what was done by the assistant during the entire procedure (hairline design, extraction from the donor area, implants in the receiving area, etc ...) ? Is there a formula where everything is done by the doctor herself ?
How many consultations have you had before the procedure ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
How long did you book the surgery in advance (how long did you wait between the consultation and the surgery ?) ?
@@eicisback I have finished surgery at that clinic just recently.
First of all, the never ending question “ surgeon or technicians”, doesn’t matter. They are very well trained, many times better than the doctor. So do not focus on who is doing what. If you choose good clinic, they do things good. Period.
It is irrelevant who does what. When you go for a blood tests, nurse will take your blood probably less painfully than a doctor if u know what I mean.
What is important tho is, that the planning and consultation is done with the doctor and that the doctor is still around during the procedure.
Here, both my first visits were about talking what to expect what can go wrong etc… drawing the hairline, all done by the doctor here. When u come for the surgery day, the doctor draws everything on your head again, but already like precisely, not just a line where the hair will be, but that pre-op line. Having two meetings in person instead of coming just for the day of surgery probably doesnt make a difference, saves some time I guess, maybe a bit more comfortable for everyone.
This clinic is informing you about everything perfectly, they dont leave any topic untouched…the surgery, no pain at all , at least for me, and overall super satisfied with them. Very professional.
Time from the consultation to the surgery, depends only on free slots. U can decide on Monday and have surgery on Tuesday if they have time. Unless you are taking some medication that would need to be first worn off.
As Sonny made a quite some marketing for them, and then this account did similar, when they reviewed it, you can probably expect them to be super busy with much longer waiting times. I was waiting like 3 weeks or so, but I talked to them right after I saw the Sonny’s video, so I was still early. Now there would be probably much longer waiting time. I have asked and they said they have huge influx currently. Maybe the price will increase with time too, if the influx will keep coming?
Please talk about the giant zits that occur as a result of having a transpant. Had I known about this prior, I would've avoided having it done really.
Also, please talk about the different sizes of needles they use, because the one they used on me, left noticable large pore holes where each hair was placed.
I've been wearing a baseball hat for the past 20 years ever since. And they used too much numbing agent, I have about 50-70% feeling. And they placed my hairline much lower than my original normal hairline was, even though they had a photo of it. I got stomach flu from bad orange juice that tasted off, they provided at lunch break.
I bet people want to know all about these types of humbling concerns within this democracy.
You had the procedure too early you were a Guinea pig. It’s almost perfect now
@@anonymousanonymous4690 are you suggesting that zits dont appear that take chunks of noticable meat away? Or the size of the needles would somehow be smaller so they wont leave a stab wound that remains visible? Or the purple tint your scalp has for years after?
Sounds like a botched job.
Y would u drink the orange juice knowing it was off
@@mararoxa2275 Why would i know it was off prior to drinking it if i was expecting it to be ok in the first place?
I took a drink, and then noticed it was off, rather than to do the smell test.
It complicated things, as i was on a empty stomach and seemed to have a stomach flu side effect. The food they offered for the lunch turned out to be some type of gamey meat flavored stew type of substance.
Had I been aware of that prior to arrival, would've made sure to bring something that didn't seem like soylent green past the best before date.
The bandana is awesome. Bring back that look please.
He showed off his hairline on joe Rohan podcast and said he only wore the headband for sweat a couple years ago lol 😂
You better be carful how you come at Sonny lol, he’s a gift to good review shows everywhere!

Anyone ever told you that you sound like Jeff Goldblum?? You have such a pleasant voice and cadence to your speech.
The surgeon narrating the video has a natural high 🤣
I'd go for Dr Gary's look ... bald & big nose .. dude looks bad ass cool.
Another great video, you got yourself a new subscriber tonight! I'd love to see your opinion on if Margot Robbie has had cosmetic surgery. There is a lot of controversy on what/if she has had anything done.
If you have to take finasteride after the transplant, I feel like it would be a good idea to take it for a few months beforehand. That drug does not suit everybody, and if you find you can't take it long-term, you don't want to have to deal with having an immortal fringe as well as being bald.
There are some great hair systems out there,they look so natural
Hey its Sonny! Love his content! And of course yours too, doc!
As much as I watch Sunny, I had no idea he got transplants.
I remember watching some news station in the early 2000's and they said they had a cure for hair loss and said it would take about 10yrs to be available. it's been more than 10 yrs
20 years later you still havn't figured news stations will lie to you ?
Why isn't general anesthesia used for this?
Most men in my country get their transplants in turkia. Costs around 3000 thousands.. and the results are good.
what's a good spot
Love your presentation Dr Linkov, have you thought about making vids regarding the history of plastic surgery? Early prothetics going all the way back to medieval times, the huge leap after WW1, when millions of soldiers/civilians suffered from disfiguring wounds brought upon by artillery and shrapnel
One of the points you mentioned about therapy after the procedure, is there a comparison video between different options and what is the most safest and valued??
I have no hair. Was born with no hair. Never had it. Don't miss what I've never had. If I want hair it's in boxes upstairs coloured and styled 😂 I couldn't do this. And there's no guarantee with monilethrix anyway. Thanks for this one 💕
As a fully bald man, I just don't understand. To each is own :)
No exercise for 2-3 weeks?!!! What about if someone does regular cardio, that's more than enough time to lose significant gains in cardiovascular endurance and bone density. What about lifting weights/ calisthenics? 🤔
Lol it's OK to take a couple weeks off you don't lose much gains. Plus whatever you do lose comes right back. Muscle memory.
Maybe don't use performance enhancing drugs when working out.
3 weeks of no cardio is enough time to lose significant gains and bone density? lol
@@johny5400 Yep it's true, rather surprising I know. I don't have the studies to hand, but I remember reading them and being really surprised. Obviously here the word 'significant' means statistically significant/ there's a measured change. It doesn't necessarily mean 'a lot' and it doesn't mean you can't make those gains back in as many weeks.
@@Bobby-mq9ys Those gains are back after on week u start again. Unless u are training for marathon, u dont even know something changed
as a female with androgenic alopecia.. i will forever be jealous of the fact that you guys have better surgical options :( .. looks great, though!
a few years ago the grafts were harvested by making a fairly substantial incision in the back of the scalp, extracting that skin strip, and sewing it up…is there a better non invasive way of harvesting the grafts, or is it pretty much the same. I have had a couple of transplants, and the graft placement were tedious and time consuming but never a problem, however the incision, sutures, drainage and recovery. from sourcing the. grafts was invasive, painful later on, and leaves scars on the back of the scalp
He mentioned this in the video. It sounds like you had the FUT method. Where a strip of scalp is taken from the donor area, and the follicles are extracted, then implanted into the recipient area. With the FUE method, the follicles are extracted from the donor area, then implanted into the recipient area. There is no cutting or suturing involved. Just taking the follicles from one area, and putting them somewhere else. I'm sure, with that, the recovery time is less painful (if any) and shorter.
Thanks for making these informational videos, Dr. Linkov. I just wanted to get your thoughts on if the market for hair transplant has significantly shifted overseas because of the difference in cost. If so, could you shed some light on some ways American practitioners are retaining patients to get their procedures in the states?
Dr I need help! I'm loosing obsene amount of hair after a salon based chemical straightening. The chemical wasn't washed out properly of my head and my scalp health deteriorarted initially. Also, my hair were damaged. I've lost more than 60 percent hair in 6 months all over scalp and still shedding isn't subsiding. I can see regrowth. I'm taking treatment from the very beginning. I've taken hair fact and other prescribed vitamins. The hairloss was extremely severe. Is there a chance that my follicles got damaged as there was no burn! Please suggest the right line of treatment. I was suggested minoxidil but didn't use as it started as talogen effluvium and i thought that id have to rely on it lifetime. So, I took homeopathy treatment. However, it turned to fphl so, I'm really looking forward to more practical allopathy treatments. Please suggest
Minoxidil, gfc? How to go about it?
Chemicals for hair straightening. But placebo sugar pills instead of safety proven minoxidil. Great!
Consult a dermatologist and do what they say, I don't think he can legally give you medical advice in the comments of a RUclips video
What can be some of the side effects of the medical therapy or whatever medication you have to take after the procedure? And usually how long do you have to take it for?
Woah ngl, Dr. Gary with eyebrows totally surprised me.
