Hey LeBron – What are You Trying to Comb?
It is not an insult to LeBron James to say he does not really have a full head of hair. There has been much speculation in the past about his hairline and whether or not the NBA superstar has undergone a hair transplant. The conversation about his hairline was renewed earlier this month when the Lakers superstar performed an odd action with his hair after a recent game.
LeBron James – NBA Fans React to Him Brushing His Hair
A recent postgame video of LeBron James caught the attention of the public when the video showed James brushing his hair during an interview after a recent game. The reason the video was so popular is that there are many sports fans who think James had gone bald in the past and had a hair transplant or that he should just go bald and not worry about trying to maintain his hair. While LeBron does have some hair on his head, a few of his fans feel there is not enough on his scalp to worry about leaving on his head.
Some of the online reactions included one fan saying LeBron’s scalp was going to start bleeding from the brushing while another person said he had hair like James and then went bald. This same person also suggested that James should go for the bald look as well. There were even some fans who were curious why James had not made the decision to go bald or to use part of his considerable wealth to get a hair transplant.
While LeBron can certainly afford a hair transplant, he has not admitted to the public whether or not he has undergone the surgery. Former NBA player Charles Barkley has also urged James to simply shave his head, but LeBron has not followed that advice.
LeBron James – Continuing Speculation About His Hairline
One of the most interesting things about LeBron James is that the conversation about his appearance goes far beyond his athletic skill and performance on the court. The changing look of his hairline has become an ongoing subject of speculation and gossip.
The speculation about a possible LeBron James hair transplant goes beyond NBA fans. The topic is one that is discussed by the general public, celebrity gossip websites, those who have undergone hair restoration surgery, and possible hair transplant patients who are considering having the procedure.
One of the reasons that some members of the public, and even some hair transplant specialists, believe he had a surgical procedure to restore his hair is because of what appears to be visible scars on the head of the basketball superstar.
In addition, the continuing curiosity about his hairline also includes people who are convinced he had a hair transplant thanks to photos of LeBron in his younger years and then a receding hairline in the past decade. They compare the photos of a younger LeBron James to more modern photos that have a fuller hairline and these online detectives are convinced they have found the solution to the puzzle about the appearance of his hair.
One aspect of the discussion about his hairline that is often overlooked is the fact that there is more to LeBron James than his hairline. Between his achievements on the court and his appearances in movies, there is certainly more to the man than his physical appearance.
However, if LeBron James did have a hair transplant, is there a technique that is available that would help him to hide the fact that he had a Los Angeles hair transplant surgery?
LeBron James – Celebrity Hair Transplant (the Procedure)
As mentioned earlier in this article, LeBron James has never admitted one way or another if he has undergone any type of surgical hair restoration procedure. Since he is constantly in the public eye, he would likely want to take the necessary steps to make sure the public was not aware of any changes made to his hairline.
LeBron might be an ideal candidate for Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi which is an innovative and popular hair restoration surgery designed for patients who want to keep their hair transplant as anonymous as possible.
The procedure is a type of non-shaven FUE hair transplant that involves a minimal amount of downtime after the surgery as well as having hardly any level of detectably by the average person.
In most cases, there is no need to shave or trim either the donor area or recipient area which means a patient has the ability to leave the office wearing the same hairstyle they were wearing when they arrived at the office. The results do not include any visible scars and the hair grafts will be evenly distributed in the donor area.
One of the main reasons this procedure would be ideal for a widely recognized person like LeBron James is that the results are discreet in appearance as opposed to the typical appearance of the scalp after a hair transplant. Plus, patients are able to resume their regular routine after the surgery which means the average person will not suspect any type of change to the hairline.
While no one except for James (and his family) likely know whether or not he has undergone a hair transplant, if he wants to have one in the future, doctors keep the personal names of their patients confidential, so we won’t tell anyone LeBron came to see us!
Breaking News – Fox News Anchor Wearing “a Rug?”
Bret Baier is a well-known face to the viewers of Fox News. Baier has been with the network in various capacities since 1998 and he is currently the chief political correspondent for Fox News as well as the host of “Special Report with Bret Baier.” As with any other news reporter, his appearance is studied on a daily basis and viewers of the news channel are not afraid to share their opinions or speculation about his current look. Baier was recently accused by one viewer of wearing “a rug” on his head in place of having natural hair.
Fox News Anchor – Question About the Appearance of His Hair
In a recent thread on X/Twitter where radio host Hugh Hewitt was praising Baier’s graphic novel for young adults, “The History Club,” one tweet appeared that accused the television personality of wearing “a rug” on his scalp. Instead of being rude with his answer or even just ignoring the tweet, Baier replied by explaining that his nicely sculpted hair is “all me” as well as the result of a gel he wears to tame his curls and “to get it to lay down.” In addition, he thanked the X/Twitter accuser for being a fan.
Baier did not go into any further details about the brand of gel he uses to make his curls stay in place. However, it does create a sense of curiosity of how curly his hair would look without this wonder gel.
Fox News Anchor – Past Gossip About the Look of His Hair
The general perception of news anchors is that they are expected to look their best at all times when they are on the air. Bret Baier normally wears a suit and tie and certainly looks the part of a news anchor with his clothing style. One part of his appearance that he often experiments with is his hair as he has worn a variety of hairstyles over the years. The fifty-three-year-old news anchor has been the subject of a good amount of gossip about his hairline and some of that gossip has been centered around the idea that he might wear “a rug” AKA a toupee on his head. There are other viewers who feel his hair has an unnatural look that might be the result of a toupee or a hair transplant.
There has been speculation about his hairline online and the comments about his hair include the following post on X/Twitter:
“Hello Brett Baier. I’d appreciate it if you could resolve a disagreement between my wife and me. She claims you have a toupee on your head. I believe it is actual hair. Thanks!”
The response from the news anchor included the news that his hair is actually his natural hair along with his natural hair color and not a hairpiece. Since he responded with this information, it can be assumed that he does wear any type of toupee. Having said that, this is not guaranteed because there are some people who are not comfortable with the idea of talking about their appearance and this includes the possibility that a person might not have a natural head of hair. A person simply might not want to admit to anyone that they are wearing a toupee on their head when they are on television.
Due to the use of gel on his head and the desire to look his best at all times in front of his audience, his hair might not look natural to others due to the lights in the studio and the high-resolution cameras that are used during a news broadcast.
Fox News Anchor – Not the Only Gossip About His Appearance
In addition to the gossip about his hair, there has been other speculation about cosmetic changes to his appearance. One example is the speculation that he had Botox injections that also changed the look of his eyebrows. One viewer tweeted, “I don’t know what happened to Bret Baier’s eyebrows; looks like some plastic surgery went awry. He’s starting to look more like Leonard Nimoy’s Spock every day.”
Another person tweeted to Baier and told him to “lay off the plastic surgery” as the person who tweeted said the Fox News anchor looked “too pulled back.” Baier replied by answering, “Never had any plastic surgery. But thanks for watching.”
Even with all of the denials issued by Baier about his hairline, it is still his word against the word of his viewers. It is up to the individual person or viewer to decide if they believe the Fox News anchor about his hair being natural in appearance. While there is no reason to not believe him, there is also the idea that he does not want his viewers to know if he does not have a natural head of hair. In other words, the truth about the hair of this Fox news anchor might never be known by the public.
Tom Hanks – What Happened with His Hair Transplant?
There are times in Hollywood when a person who seems to have a perfect life is in the public eye. Tom Hanks falls into that category as he has been the perfect actor to play certain roles in movies and he seems perfectly nice to his fans and fellow actors. However, we are ready to blow apart that perfect image with the shocking news about an imperfection in his appearance. If Tom Hanks starred in a horror movie based on his life, the title would be:
What’s Went Wrong with Tom Hanks’ Hair Transplant?
Tom Hanks – Why Did He Have a Hair Transplant?
If you watch the appearance of Tom Hanks in his various movies over the years, you will see the hair of Tom Hanks evolve from curly locks to closely cropped to its current look. One aspect of his hairstyle that is not noticeable these days is his case of male patterned hair loss.
The actor has been experiencing the condition for several years and, at some point in his career, he decided to take action and have a hair transplant. While his new post-transplant hairline is appropriate for his age thanks to its mature look, there is still something that is a bit “off” about its appearance. Look closely at the image below.
Did you see it? If not, I’ll explain the problem that is hiding in plain sight in the next section.
Tom Hanks – What’s Wrong with His Hair?
Let’s start the examination of his hairline by discussing temporal points. While science fiction movies love to use the concept of temporal points to describe a set of events that have been observed to occur at various points in time, the temporal points we are discussing are an essential element in the creation of a hairline that looks natural in appearance.
When a board-certified and experienced hair transplant surgeon creates a plan to design a hairline, the doctor pays close attention to the proportions of the face of the patient. This is sometimes referred to as “the rule of thirds” which is supposed to help identify if the face of a person is proportional. For example, the distance from the tip of the nose to the chin should be similar to the distance between the tip of the nose to the eyebrows. The same distance should also be found in the area that goes from the eyebrows to the hairline of a person.
This rule shows the distance between facial features that someone should have in order for the face to be vertically proportional. When performing a hair transplant, there might be a need to increase the distance that goes from the eyebrows to the hairline in order to create the appearance of a mature hairline.
Hair restoration specialists are quite skilled in treating the vertical proportions of the face. Unfortunately, there are some surgeons who are not as skilled or experienced when addressing the horizontal proportions of the face.
Tom Hanks – Are His Horizontal Proportions Off in the Face?
Just like the previous section of this article, the discussion about horizontal proportions starts with the temporal points. A successful framing of the face using hair means the perimeter of the front hairline is used to create a certain style to the hair. In addition, framing the face during a hair transplant should help the face by making sure it is horizontally balanced through the recreation of the temporal points.
It is not an exaggeration to say the temporal points are a critical component in maintaining the balance of the face as well as giving the face a more youthful appearance. There are also some cases where people who do not lose any hair on the top of the head can still look older due to a receding of the temporal points. If the temporal points are restored, the face will look younger.
Now, you have a better idea of what to look for in the picture of Tom Hanks in this article.
An easy way to spot a hair transplant is to take a look at the temporal points. The surgeon might not have created temporal points appropriate to the proportion of the face of the patient. While the hairline might look good (We’re looking at you Mr. Hollywood Superstar Tom Hanks), there is still something that seems amiss with the hairline.
While Tom Hanks has admitted to having a hair transplant earlier in his career, it is not publicly known who performed the surgery and what their skill level was in restoring the temporal points. When examining the hairline of Tom Hanks, it does seem that the surgeon might have been limited in his knowledge or skills in creating a natural look to the hairline. There is also a possibility the doctor did not have a clear understanding of the horizontal proportions of the face.
If you are now worried about the proportions of your face and a hair transplant, do not stress yourself out! The creation of temporal points that are natural in appearance is easy to achieve thanks to the advanced technology available at Parsa Mohebi Hair Restoration. The combination of state-of-the-art equipment and the artistic eyes of our team ensures no one will stare at your head for a long time because they just can’t determine with is wrong with your hair.
Ashley Tisdale Hair Loss – Actress Speaks Out About Alopecia
Ashley Tisdale has been in the public eye since her days as part of the “High School Musical” franchise. She has also recently raised her profile by speaking out about her hair loss journey. Celebrities are not always willing to discuss any hair loss they are experiencing as they often like to maintain the illusion that their appearance is always “camera ready” and free of any flaws or imperfections, Let’s take a look at the story behind Ashley Tisdale’s hair loss including the reason for the condition.
Ashley Tisdale – Reveals Her Hair Loss Diagnosis
In a recent post on Instagram, the actress revealed that she had been diagnosed with a condition that is known as alopecia. In the post, Tisdale said, “Alopecia and hair loss are fairly common, but a lot of people feel embarrassed to talk about these issues. That’s why I want to talk about it openly – because it’s nothing to be ashamed of.”
Tisdale is not the only female celebrity who has been open with the public regarding hair loss. Some recent examples include model Ashley Graham discussing postpartum hair loss as well as Jada Pinkett-Smith and Viola Davis sharing their own stories of dealing with alopecia.
The thirty-seven-year-old Tisdale shared that her alopecia diagnosis was made by a dermatologist after she started to notice a bald spot that had appeared at the front of her head when she was in her early twenties. Tisdale also explained that her condition might have been caused (in part) by “stress overload.”
Please note that stress itself might not be the cause for hair loss in a patient. Stress can certainly accelerate a hair loss condition, but it might not be the actual cause for the loss of hair on the scalp (unless the patient is diagnosed with Telogen Effluvium where sudden stress can lead to hair loss).
Alopecia Areata – What is it?
In general, alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition where the body perceives bacteria and viruses in the body to be foreign objects. While the immune system makes white blood cells and antibodies to protect the body against bacteria and viruses, an autoimmune disease means the immune system of a person mistakes certain parts of the body as foreign objects.
When a person is experiencing alopecia areata, they will begin to see a patchy and balding appearance in the areas of the scalp that are lacking hair. These patchy areas are usually round in appearance and are often the size of a coin. During alopecia areata, the white blood cells of the patient gather around the hair follicles on the scalp that are viewed as being foreign by the body (which can result in the hair falling out and creating bald patches).
Thankfully, the hair follicles that are impacted by alopecia areata are capable of producing a normal growth of hair again if, and when, the autoimmune condition of the patient subsides. For example, Tisdale has mentioned that her hair grew back after the hair loss diagnosis was made by her doctor.
Alopecia Areata – What are the Available Treatment Options?
Patients who are experiencing hair loss due to alopecia have a number of treatment options available to them.
One of the first treatment options is also one of the simplest ones to follow as the treatment plan is…No treatment at all! Alopecia areata is considered to be a self-limiting condition which means the effects of the condition can be reversed without the need for any treatment on the part of the doctor.
Patients can also use minoxidil (Rogaine) and topical steroids to address the issue of hair loss. These solutions and creams can be rubbed on the scalp of the person with the condition as they have been shown to promote hair regrowth in some patients.
If the two treatments above do not seem to be working to reverse the effects of alopecia areata, the doctor might need to perform a series of steroid injections that can speed up the recovery process or treat any lesions that are present and proving resistant to other treatments.
There are also times when alopecia can expand beyond patchy areas and cover a larger section of the scalp. In addition, there are occasions when the hair loss turns out to be permanent which means a balding patch remains in place on the scalp. This is not the time to try and have a hair transplant as the disease might still be active and any transplanted hair might be lost due to the same condition or mechanism that made the original hair loss happen on the scalp.
Once the doctor treating the condition determines that the disease is no longer active on the scalp (thanks to an extended period of inactivity), a “test” hair transplant might be an option to transplant a limited number of hair grafts into the balding area on the scalp. If the “test” is successful, the doctor can make the decision about whether or not a “regular” hair transplant can be performed to address the total amount of hair loss.
How Did Harry Get That Hair – Prince Harry Hair Transplant Speculation
Price Harry, AKA the Duke of Sussex, has been in the news recently thanks to the release of his memoir, “Spare.” The book is filled with revelations and details about his family as well as his time in the military. Even with all of the stories about his life as a member of the Royal Family, one of the main items that the public is discussing from his interviews is the appearance of his hairline. Many television viewers feel his hair is noticeably thicker and fuller than in years past. Some fans of the Royal Family even feel that Prince Harry had a hair transplant.
We discussed the changing appearance of Prince Harry’s hairline a few years ago. Now, it is time to see if there have been any additional changes to the evolution of his hairline. Does Harry have more hair on his head? Has there been a change to Harry’s hairline? Let’s find out!
Prince Harry – Hair Transplant Speculation
The thirty-eight-year-old Duke of Sussex is aware of the fact that his hair has changed as he continues to age. He also wrote about the hair loss of his brother by commenting that the amount of baldness on the scalp of his brother was “alarming” and more advanced than his own hair loss.
A hair specialist from the United Kingdom, as well as the founder of Sky Clinic, Jay Dharamshi, was recently interviewed about the appearance of Prince Harry’s hair. According to Dharamshi, “Prince Harry’s hair does appear to look fuller and thicker than it had previously. This could be due to him undergoing a surgical hair transplant or he could have had a non-surgical hair restoration treatment. In my opinion, Harry has likely had a non-surgical treatment, which made his hair appear more restored and fuller.”
Keep in mind if Harry did have a non-surgical hair restoration treatment, the results might not be permanent (if he used a treatment such as minoxidil). If Harry decided to have a hair transplant, the results would be permanent in providing a fuller and more youthful look to the hairline.
Prince Harry – Possible Reasons for Hair Loss
When it comes to the possible reasons for his hair loss, Dharamshi said that male pattern hair loss is a quite common type of balding that can be the result of both hereditary and hormonal conditions. “It usually starts with thinning hair on the hairline and on top and front of the head. Androgenic alopecia is a familial condition.
When asked why Prince William seems to be losing his hair at a faster rate, he said, “Even though siblings are born with the same genetics, we all come with unique DNA, which means that all siblings will not necessarily be affected by hair loss. Baldness genes can often skip a generation, or you can be a carrier without showing any signs of baldness, so yes, it is very common for one brother to lose hair while another doesn’t.”
Hair Loss and Celebrities – How They Deal with It
Celebrities are often in an odd position when it comes to thinning and balding hair on the scalp. They are in the public eye on a regular basis and a good portion of the public is used to seeing their favorite stars with a youthful and refreshed look. It can be a shock for them to see a celebrity looking “less than Hollywood” by having a condition such as hair loss that can make them look older than their actual age.
Some celebrities are actually quite open about their hair loss and do not make any attempt to hide the fact that they have a thinning or balding scalp. In addition, there are celebrities who undergo hair transplants and share the news with the world. Once recent example is Joe Buck who visited our office last year to have hair restoration surgery. The decision of some celebrities to share their hair restoration journey is often very refreshing as they are showing their fans that there is nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to wanting to make a change to the appearance of their hairline.
This is not always the case as some people are simply not comfortable enough with the fact that they need a hair transplant to share it with the public. It is certainly not known at the moment if Prince Harry had any type of hair transplant procedure and, if so, what led him to make the decision to make a change in the appearance of his hairline. The Royal Family is well-known for trying to keep the private lives of their members out of the public eye. The memoir released by Prince Harry is a rare instance of a member of the inner circle of the Royal Family exposing any kind of “inside gossip” about the members of the best-known family in England.
Until there comes a time that Prince Harry decides to share more information about the changing appearance of his hairline, celebrity watchers will simply have to continue to speculate about the changes in the look of the Duke of Sussex.
Akon – Singer Shares Why He Had a Hair Transplant
There are some celebrities who have a hair transplant and will not admit to undergoing a procedure. On the other hand, there are other celebrities who will admit to it after the procedure or when they are asked about their hairline by their fans or the media. One celebrity who recently admitted to having a hair transplant is the singer and record producer, Akon. Take a look below to learn more about his reasons for deciding to have a hair transplant as well as the reaction of the public to the procedure.
Akon Discusses His Hair Transplant
In a recent interview with Bootleg Kev, Akon admitted to having “a procedure” designed to restore the appearance of his hairline. He also revealed that the surgical procedure only cost him $7500. The 49-year-old singer told Bootleg Kev, “In the beginning, my whole front was loose. It was real thin.” Kev also asked Akon if the procedure was painful and he replied, “Nah, no.” He did refer to the numbing process as “no joke” but he does appear to be happy with the final results. He said, “It looks amazing” while Kev said Tory Lanez, a rapper and singer, should have visited the same doctor. Akon replied with, “I told him. I said, ‘Tory should’ve came to my man.’ Like, bro, you know.”
Akon – Social Media Memes About His Hair
Akon has also acknowledged the change in his appearance by responding to the multiple memes that have appeared in the wake of his new hairline. Thankfully, he appears to be a good sport about all of the jokes being made about his new look.
Some of the comments on Twitter about his hair include:
- “Akon got the frontal sitting too low”
- “They gave akon the panoramic hairline”
Akon is one of a growing number of male celebrities who decided to have a hair transplant to combat their hair loss. Even though he joked about telling Tory Lanez to visit the same doctor, Lanez has been open about having a hair transplant to address his hair loss (but he has not talked about going to the same doctor as Akon). When asked about his reasons for having hair restoration surgery, Lanez said, “If you look back at my old pictures, my only issue was [that] my corners were back here. I fixed my corners and I let the rest of my hair grow in. I’m coming back with the braids. I’m coming back crazy on y’all. Y’all think it’s a joke.”
Hair Transplant – How it is Performed
The hair transplant process starts with a doctor examining the scalp of the patient in order to determine the reason for the hair loss as well as the extent of the hair loss. The surgeon will also be able to answer any questions the patient has about the procedure and set realistic expectations about the amount of available donor hair and the type of results the patient can expect to enjoy after the procedure.
The donor hair is normally taken from the back or sides of the scalp because the hair on this part of the scalp is resistant to balding. If there is not enough available donor hair on the back or sides of the scalp, or the hair is not high-quality enough to use, the surgeon can make the decision to use donor hair from the beard or scalp of the patient.
Tiny incisions are then made in the targeted area of the scalp so the hair grafts can be transplanted into the balding or thinning section on the scalp of the patient. The transplanted hair will start to grow like the natural hair on the scalp and provide a greater amount of density and fullness to the area where the hair was lost or thinning. The results are permanent, which means the patient will enjoy a lifetime of positive results.
Celebrity Hair Transplant Explained
As mentioned at the start of this article, there are some celebrities who do not want the public to know they had a hair transplant. We offer an innovate FUE hair transplant procedure known as Celebrity Hair Transplant™ that is a popular option for celebrities (and the general public) that want to keep their procedure anonymous. It is an outpatient hair restoration surgery that has little detectability and a minimal amount of downtime.
It is a non-shaven FUE procedure that uses a multiphasic extraction device to remove the hair which eliminates the need to precut the hair shafts. In other words, there is no need to shave or trim either the recipient or donor areas (in most cases) which means patients can come into the procedure with long hair and wear the same hairstyle when they leave the office. Keep in mind that this procedure is labor intensive so the number of hair grafts that can be transplanted is more limited than a traditional hair transplant procedure.
Anyone who is interested in learning more about this innovative hair transplant technique, or African American hair transplant as in the case of the singers we discussed above, are invited to contact our office today for more information.
Tom Hanks Hair Transplant – Did It Happen?
It is not an understatement that say that 66-years-old Tom Hanks is one of the mist beloved and popular actors in the world. Hanks is known across the globe, but he might have a secret that he has been hiding from his fans. There is some speculation that the actor had a hair transplant in the past to address the issue of thinning hair on his scalp. Did it actually happen? Let’s take a look at the story behind the possible hair restoration procedure of Tom Hanks.
Tom Hanks – Hair Transplant Gossip
The first question many people ask about Tom Hanks and hair restoration is:
“Why would Tom Hanks have a hair transplant?”
For one thing, some celebrity gossip reporters have noted that, around the year 2014, the hair of Tom Hanks started to grow more on the sides than it did on the top of his scalp. This could result in any thinning or balding areas on the scalp being more noticeable because of the growth of more hair on the side of the head and less on the top of the head. Some of the gossip surrounding his possible hair restoration procedure says he was viewed as being Norwood Stage 2 with his hairline. The number two on the Norwood scale is considered to be the first stage of baldness for men as the frontal hairline begins to recede until the midline and this also results in a deep recession of hair on both sides of the temples.
The speculation about his possible hair transplant claims it was a smaller procedure in the area of the hairline and the side areas of the scalp where some thinning was starting to become visible. The decision to have a hair transplant performed in this manner allowed him to gain a look that was quite suitable in achieving a natural appearance to the form and shape of his hair.
In addition, the hair transplant was able to give a more youthful and rejuvenated look to the hairline which allows Hanks to have a refreshed look to his face and hair. Hanks has never been known for having long hair so the look he gained (if he had a hair transplant) was not too different from the look the public expects to see from him on a regular basis.
Hair Transplant – Common Concern
As the continuing look of Tom Hanks shows, a hair transplant is able to provide natural results that are also long-lasting. One of the most common concerns patients who are thinking about having the surgery express to their doctors is the fear that others will be able to easily see or detect the fact that a hair transplant was performed.
The hair that is used in the procedure comes from the body of the actual patient. Once it is transplanted into the thinning or balding areas on the scalp, it acts like the native/natural hair in that section of the scalp so it cannot be detected as being “different” from the hair that was already located in the treated area of the scalp.
In general, a hair transplant is a surgical procedure where the surgeon addresses the balding areas on the scalp by moving high-quality hair follicles from the donor area of the body into the thinning or balding section of the scalp. The donor area is usually located on the back or sides of the scalp as the hair in this area has been shown to be resistant to the balding process. (FYI: If there is not enough high-quality donor hair on the back or sides of the scalp, the doctor can take hair from other areas of the body such as the chest or beard.)
Either before or after the harvesting procedure, and also while preparing the hair grafts, the surgeon will create tiny incisions in the area where the balding is occurring on the scalp. The follicular units will be placed in the incisions and also distributed on the scalp in such a way that the patient will gain a hairline that is natural in appearance and not be noticeable to the average person viewing the scalp.
After a few days of being implanted by the surgeon, the transplanted hair follicles will be firmly in place in the scalp.
At Parsa Mohebi Hair Transplant, we also perform Celebrity Hair Transplant™ which is a FUE hair transplant procedure that is an ideal choice for patients who want to keep their hair restoration procedure anonymous from their friends and family since there is minimal downtime after the surgery and little detectability. Patients can enter the procedure with long hair and there is normally not any need to shave or trim either the recipient or donor hair. This allows patients to enjoy wearing the same hairstyle when they leave the office as they did when they arrived for the surgery. However, the number of grafts that can be used is more limited due to the amount of labor involved in the procedure.
While it has not been confirmed that Tom Hanks had a hair transplant, his hairline does look good for his age. Anyone who is interested in gaining a youthful hairline through a traditional hair transplant or Celebrity Hair Transplant™ is invited to contact our office for more information.
Joe Buck Hair Transplant – Fans React to His Hair Restoration
In our blog last week, we shared the news about Joe Buck visiting our Los Angeles hair transplant medical center to have a hair restoration procedure. One of the first things that should be discussed is that Joe Buck made the decision to share the news about his FUE hair transplant with the public. Each patient has the right to make their own decision whether or not they want to let others know they had any type of medical procedure. Since Joe shared his hair transplant with his social media followers, we were also able to discuss it with the readers of our blog.
It turns out that we are not the only ones to be excited by this news and wanting to discuss it with others. Here is a look at some of the reactions regarding the new look to Joe Buck’s hairline.
Fans React to Joe Buck Hair Transplant
The world was first altered to Joe’s surgery when he posted a photo from our Los Angeles medical center on his Instagram account. The caption for the photo said, “Training camp doesn’t just start for players. New network, newly arranged follicles. Hello ESPN!!! Cannot wait for September 12, and for this green to wash out of my hair. I promise I’ll look normal-ish by week 1. Oh and why four people for one head??? It’s a big head.”
In general, his fan seems to appreciate his honesty by replying to his news on social media. Some of the fan reactions included:
- “Smart. You come out and show it, people won’t make fun like they would if he showed up outta nowhere with a head full of hair.”
- “This is fantastic, I literally have no idea why people hate this guy so much.”
- “Joe Buck is the guy.”
- “Love the plain-spoken honesty”
- “Thanks for sharing your story, and the doctor Joe Buck”
Nikki Glaser, a well-known comedian, said, “Yes! Love this honesty. Now show us your BBL scars.” (Joe…is there something you’re not telling us?)
Joe Buck Hair Transplant – How it Can Help the Public
There are many reasons that someone who is experiencing hair loss might not want to have a hair transplant. One of the reasons is that they don’t want to feel any embarrassment about having the procedure when they are with friends or family. They might feel alone and that no one will understand what they are going through, and this is especially true when they view celebrities who seem to have a perfect life as well as a perfect head of hair.
The fact that a celebrity like Joe Buck, who is viewed by millions of people each week during football games, is open with his fans about his hair transplant is something that should be admired. Many celebrities do not want to ruin their perfect image with their fans by admitting to having some type of cosmetic surgery procedure. Joe Buck is showing the public that it is okay to want to make a change in their appearance if it will help them feel better about their look and also give a boost to their self-image. In addition, Joe Buck is pulling back the curtain on the hair restoration process and helping to educate the public while also showing them that the actual procedure is not as scary as they might imagine it to be in their minds.
Hair Transplant – How It Works
The hair transplant process gives the hairline of a patient a rejuvenated and refreshed look thanks to the placing of hair grafts in areas of the scalp that are thinning or balding.
The hair transplant process starts with the doctor taking donor hair from the donor area of the body. The donor area is usually the back and sides of the scalp as the hair on these areas of the scalp is resistant to the balding process. Patients who do not have enough high-quality donor hair do not need to worry as donor hair can also come from other areas of the body such as the chest and beard.
The donor hair will be implanted into incisions that are created by the surgeon in the targeted area of the scalp. This hair will act like the natural/native hair in the targeted area of the scalp and gain a natural look as it is growing. The transplanted hair is resistant to balding which means patients do not need to worry about it falling out after they gain the desired final results.
Anyone who is interested in being like Joe Buck and having a hair transplant are invited to contact our office today to schedule a consultation appointment. Our doctors will perform a thorough examination of the scalp to determine the reasons for the hair loss as well as set realistic expectations for the type of results the person can expect to enjoy after the procedure.
