Do you take a strip of skin from the back of the head to use its hair as donor to other parts of the head that needs hair transplant? Thanks

[samlammd]

@jakemullick yes, that is correct. :)

[upinflamezzz]

What are some options besides cutting into my head? Are they any good?

[samlammd]

@upinflamezzz you can always try propecia and rogaine to regrow some hair and to slow down the process. these work principally well in someone with earlier stages of hair loss.

@vaheedh How tight do you shave your hair for it to start looking better and growing better?

[samlammd]

@Ddstairclimber i do not do body harvesting. the grafts are far inferior to scalp hair. i would have to see you to determine your donor capacity but typically even the baldest man has enough hair to do from limited to significant transplantation.

[Ddstairclimber]

@samlammd I am afraid I might not have enough hair in the donor areas, even if I do I would like to increase the density by transplanting from the beard, and otehr body parts, would that look at least somewhat ok?? what is your opinion? and what could be the cost

[samlammd]

@Aspergianstar2OO9 thanks!

free info from experience -- i have an obsession in playing with my hair - and it's really clear that im loosing my hair - the only way for me to get off my obsession so i dont end up losin my hair- is to shave my hair - i've been shaving my hair for years now and noticed my hair growing back - i can clearly see shaving my head encourages hair growth - after 5yrs my hair is almost back now - so dont be tricked just shave your head constantly, eat healthy and it'll grow back on its own. see ya!
