Hair cloning is a topic that has fascinated hair loss patients and doctors for over 30 years. A more accurate terminology is hair multiplication, in which a small sample of hair follicles from a patient are expanded into hundreds or 1000s of hair follicles, which can then be used either for surgical hair restoration or actually go directly in the scalp. In this episode we discuss timeline. To help me explore the topic further. I've invited one of the world's experts on hair multiplicat...

However, amidst the complexities of this search, there exists a simple yet significant step that patients can take to narrow down their options - membership in the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS). As we del...
The hallmark of excellent cosmetic surgery lies in its subtlety; its true success is when it goes unnoticed. Take hair transplants, for instance: a compliment on the obviousness of the procedure suggests a less-than-perfect job. Indeed, the hairline can make or break the entire transplant, making its design a critical skill for surgeons. In this episode of The Hair Transplant Roadshow, I'm joined by one of the world's leading hair surgeons, Dr. Ron Shapiro, to further explore this topic. 0...

In this episode, we speak with hair transplant expert Dr. Vincenzo Gambino to help us explore the advantages and use cases for both options. 👉 Schedule a hair transplant cons...

Is FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) superior to FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)? In the field of hair transplantation there are two methods of moving grafts. The FUT method requires a simple scalpel and a lot of surgical training! The FUE method requires the use of expensive tools that are highly profitable to sell. While both are excellent techniques, FUE tool manufactures are incentivized to support multi-million dollar ad campaigns promoting FUE as the superior method. Each...

In this episode of The Hair Transplant Road Show, we speak with the world's foremost expert in the field of regen...

In this episode, we explore the topic of bad hair t...

In the second episode of The Hair Transplant Road Show, we explore this topic in detail with the president of the ISHRS, Nilofer Farjo,...
