Yes make sure you get a good doctor if you are getting a hair transplant. I live in the UK and recently saw a TV documentary about hair transplant.. They do it very differently these days... They cut out a little chunk of scalp at the back with about a hundred hairs in it.. Then they dissect the chunk of scalp into individual hairs.. (thats the trick you see in obtaining a very real result.....) They are cut really short to about 5mm long. They then go to the part of the scalp where you have the hair loss and they make tiny holes in that part of your scalp in which to individually insert the individual follicles... painstakingly one at a time.... They also make sure that the direction of the hair they are transplanting matches up with the direction of the way the hairs are growing around it.... so when it grows it is growing in the right direction... The results are fantastic.. It is a gradual thickening procedure, each time you go and have a bit more done... and its nothing like what they did in the 60's and 70's with those dreadful plugs of thick hair that were just "plugged" into the scalp leaving people looking like aliens... The only problem is, is that they never fall out because they are from the back of your head where the hair is stronger.. so if your hair loss carries on around other parts of the head.. the transplanted ones remain there intact... all alone.....
