Thanks for taking the time to watch my video, Dr Linkov. Really do appreciate it. It was such a great opportunity to offer one of my audience this incredible experience. I’ve hit ‘subscribe’. Love what you’re doing. 🙏🏼
@@drgarylinkov hi- I am a 50 year old male I lost my temples and some of the hairline in my 20ties and since age 32 it has stabilized. I actually have pictures and I look the same hair wise. Always razor it to 9mm 5/30/22 I did HT with 3000 grafts and happy so far from the results (4.5 months) My question is- since my head is now full, should I start taking finasteride and or minoxidil or just stay completely medication free like I have always been. Thank you so much Doc!
Dr. Gary love your channel. You’re humor is great & your explanations are clear, broken down for everyday ppl to understand the pros, cons & understanding the symmetry of the face etc
Funniest thing happened today, my client started talking about hair transplants and mentioned your name. It was funny to find out that we both watch your content, also bizzare because we are both in sweden and none of us are or have lived in america. Sometimes feels like a small world. Also I see your eyebrows and lashes are growing with the new medication, exciting to see the progress.
I liked the video before I finished watching it simply because I truly support your channel and how much helpful information you put out! Thank you for your work. And yes a hair transplant competition would be amazing!
As a nurse I keep telling people/Pts, your initial healing might be 6 weeks, but full healing takes 1-2 years. Be patient and kind to yourself. I need to keep reminding myself too because I feel amazing and then I push myself and my bodh goes NOPE!
I like the way you dissect the facts and bust the myths around this topic... And you know what, I also love seeing your eyebrows and mustache hair is coming back!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
videos have been invaluable, hopefully my transplant is successful, it was done over 2 days, and I’m at day 3 post surgery, very little swelling, 5 to 6k grafts 😊
Love your Videos. Currently a med student. You've inspire me to work to becoming a plastic surgeon. Still a long long journey still ahead. Love your outlook and perspectives on the field.
I’d love if you did a competition. Ive seen this video in the past and hoped you would be interested in doing something similar. I’m not sure if I’d be the best candidate but I’ve always appreciated your honesty. Regardless, I’d love to apply if you end up having a competition.
I’ve got a hairline like his although my hair is a lot thicker, it’s been like this since I was 17 and I’m 25, was on medications after I arrived at university at 19 but by the time I was 21 I completely stoped (not because of sides) I restarted again at 24 because I was considering a transplant to fill the front but am still at a point where is have bigger priorities such as saving for a house deposit, I decided just to stick with treatments this time because I want to maintain what I have. I’ll maybe fill in the sides at a later date or maybe not I’ll see how I feel about it! Yeah that would be interesting to watch, giving your subscribers transplants I think people will definitely tune in!
As someone who is older and gone through it my only advice is that once you have the surgery and it grows in Please stay on medication. You will after a year see great results and might relax your medication my advice is stay on them because if you don't you will loose that look it happens slowly but by the time you notice the damage has been done...Your own the right path stay on meds and if you do decide to have surgery as least it won't be for a lot of $$$
@@Kenny-bj2zq I'm glad I tried medications early on and know that I respond well to them, rather than wait until I'm a NW4-5 and frantically jump on them only to discover I experience side effects because then you'd be in a bad situation with fewer options as finasteride is the best thing we have for prevention so far unfortunately
Being a doctor currently working in istanbul - turkey, I believe not many people are guided to the right hospitals and doctors for treatment, because of which the patients have to pay extra and return multiple times for either repair or for being treated again. As im experienced very in this field, i offer free guidance about the actual costs and where to get the treatments so you get a legitimate treatment in turkey. Good day
Can we have a vid on how lifestyle and overall health can affect patterned hair loss? And outcome of a hair transplant? Thinking diet and exercise, smoking/drinking, sleep/stress etc
Hello Dr Gary, just discovered your channel and it has some great info as I'm looking at getting a transplant. From consults I've had they've said I'll need two transplants. What is a realistic amount of grafts I can expect from the second session compared to the first?
First of all thank you for all your Videos, I appreciate them very much! And I know this is an older Video but its your most recent hair transplant review. So I thought I would ask two questions here that might interest more people: What do you think about Sauna ~ 14 days after hair transplant or later? And do you think it is as beneficial as it is for the rest of the body or does it put stress on the skin and the follicles? Also do you think using aloe vera gel or specifiy scar creams for the donor area and maybe even for the recipient area might be beneficial, maybe even massages for the donor area? Hope you see this and thanks in advance for an answer :) Also as a suggestion: Why not make a FAQ Video or put a FAQ on your Website for everyone interested?
Had an interesting numbing experience. My tech used a vibration device near the injection site during the injection process to distract from the experience. It worked well. I would recommend this for others. It really puts the patient at ease.
To be completely honest, my hair is in a similar state to this gentleman who got the hair transplant and I am on medical therapy for about 10 months now. I do very much look forward to getting a hair transplant too strengthen the hairline in a couple years
I would love to see one of these review videos evaluating hair transplants for females! it just seems like not many people think women have insecurities about their hairlines and/or they areen't getting these procedures done. I have been wanting to get a hair transplant consult for a long time and would love some insight on it!
Dr Gary is it possible to use nape hair (hair closet to back neck) as a donor area instead of the mid back of the head? Cause I know people who have a lot of hair and a taper on the back and would rather have that donor since it’s more convenient
Hey, Gary! Love your reviews, I enjoy seeing insight to the way things should be and the different methods. I would love to have a chat with you sometime soon if at all possible. I have an upcoming procedure that I would really benefit from having your input, thanks!
Dr. Gary, thank you for another great video! My only question, if i were to get a hair transplant, would i have to take some form of Rogaine the rest of my life? Thank you.
Depends how old you are and how stable your hair loss is. If you're youngish and the hair loss is progressing still then you'd want to be taking Finasteride pretty much the rest of your life and perhaps Rogaine as well
Hello Dr Linkov, can you please make a video about the marketing and selling of the non-fda approved topical solution of finisteride and minoxidil that companies are selling such as hims
A question for Dr. Linkov: Thank you for these informative videos. You mention often how medical therapy is important to keep the original hairs that are in the vicinity of the transplanted hairs so they don’t later fall out, leaving only transplanted hairs, which isn’t a great look. I’m getting ready for a transplant and asked the clinic about this, also expressing my concerns that I’ve tried Minoxidil in the past and didn’t have any success with it. They told me that I shouldn’t worry about my original hairs later falling out because when they do the transplant, they treat my scalp as if I have no hair at all. I would be very happy to hear your impressions of their response and that approach to a transplant.
What do you mean by medical therapy Dr? I'm new to the channel, can you direct me to a vid i'm assuming you did talking about the best medical therapy or something?
Great video as usual Dr Gary. One thing I always notice about the hairline of people that have had a hair transplant is the density is not as thick as the hair behind it, and so it is obvious to me and I guess many others that a transplant has been had. How many more transplant procedures would it take to fix that, so that the density is as thick as the hair of a person that hasn't had a transplant and isn't receding?
@@drgarylinkov Thanks for the quick reply. So, 3 hair transplants in total? And after those, would it be almost impossible to spot if the person has had a hair transplant? I'm looking to fix my hairline and this is my main concern, that it would be easy for people to detect I've had one done/not fully matching the rest of the hair behind it.
I saw a dermatologist and he said I shouldn't go on propecia bc I was too young and it wasn't drastic enough. But why should I wait till I've lost a considerable amount of hair??
cause you don't want to have a hair transplant then recede around the non transplanted area. That's why you need your hairline to be "mature" before getting a HT
Transplanted hair won’t fade away again due to age or any hormonal changes? As laser removed hair can come back if you have drastic hormonal Change like pregnancy
Depends on the doc and location. The ones in california seem like they are higher tier. And many bosley docs are in recognized by hair association, awards etc. thing is you need to dig deep and look for clues. You need to read past complaints because all top clinics get slammed by angry people who had bad genetics and habits and thus poor recovery. I would be weary of the smaller market docs (even bosley in smaller cities?). And just maybe fly to the best doc you can. Dr Gary did a review of a bosley procedure in bev hills and seemed to generally comment that protocols were normal like his own. Within reason of things he didnt make sound major.
At age 46 looking to do hairtransplant for receding front hairline. I am a norwood 2 /3, strong crown and dense hair. Do i even need finasteride and or monoxil for maintaining a new hair transplant ? Or I can do without at this age?
Dr. please help. I am 16 years old and I am losing hair fast, I eat lot of protein and have recently started washing my hair with egg and using only distilled water to wash my hair. Please let me know how I can stop from going bald.
Quick question.. I'm an African American who just received a fue transplant. How soon can I was my grafs to rid the scabs? And I stay in Wisconsin, how soon can I wear a winter hat(wool or cotton)? Please help
Have you partnered up with doing the micro-tattooing with patients to hide FUE/FUT sites to cover scarring and blend it? There is actually a place in NYC that specializes in that kind of tattooing and you should have a pond location in your clinic.
SMP Scalp Micro Pigmentation. I did it for my FUT Scar but you can also plant grafts into the scar but you should wait at least 1year for it to heal and your 1st surgery to mature so you know where to focus on the 2nd transplant. I had 1fut and 2 fue so I have knowledge and experienced both transplants
Hmm at the risk of sounding creepy, I’ve noticed that you’re growing some stubble and eyebrow hair @DrGaryLinkov. Is there an update on your condition? :D
New video yay! Fun fact, my brother (who's 21 now) has been applying minoxidil since he was 19, and my cat was an overgroomer so I wondered, is there a minoxidil-type thing for animals? Google told me minoxidil is extremely toxic to cats.... I didn't mean minoxidil exactly, but thanks Google for making me seem evil. (And no, my cat had to take pred to stop being itchy and overgrooming lol)

Can you go in after the first transplant has healed and increase density without risk of overwhelming the sites blood supply?
Would you allow people to take morphine 30 minutes before the injections when it does not interfere with the other medications?
