There are so many hair loss myths today. We'll help you sort through them to find the truth.

Here's the 4th in our series. Can you guess which is true?

Here are magnified images of this patient's donor ad recipient areas taken during his initial consultation in our office.

ANSWER: There's never been a bald president of the United States.

And based on the looks of this election season, that trend is likely to continue! (:

Thanks for playing, guys! 'Till next time!

Hi, 911fan.

A "2" is a regular (coarser in caliber) two haired graft.. A "fine 2" is a finer (in caliber) two haired graft. "Fine 1 or F1" and "Fine 2 or F2" grafts are carefully picked out to give that natural feathering of the hairline so patients won't have that strong unnatural result. Please let me know if you have other questions.

Here's the 3rd in our series. Can you guess which is true?

ANSWER: HAIR CELLS CAN REGROW NERVES

Who knows? Maybe hair stem cells will provide a controversy-free source of cell therapy someday!

Numerous publications have demonstrated that in rodents (not humans) hair follicle stem cells from the bulge region promote recovery of injured spinal cord and can also play a role in repair of smaller nerves on our periphery.

"Pluripotent" refers to a cell that can become many different types of cells. Well, glass-half-full readers would say that these studies suggest that hair follicle accessible pluripotent (HAP) cells are the next easily-accessible source to propel regenerative medicine. Glass-half-empty readers, on the other hand, may read that (despite its <99% genetic similarity with the human genome) what happens in mice simply doesn't translate to humans.

'til next time !!!!

AWESOME!!!!

This is his DONOR and RECIPIENT taken during the initial consultation!

There are so many hair loss myths. This forum is helpful in sifting through them to help get us closer to the facts.

We've started a series of fun hair-related findings (and never been founds!) on Instagram (@drcarloswesley) and Twitter (@drcarloswesley).

Here's the SECOND in the series. Can you guess which is TRUE?

Hi everyone!!!

A 2012 study of 98 identical twin sisters showed the twin with a lack of exercise had increased likelihood of vertex (top of the head) hair loss! Exercise included an element of cardio! Interestingly, the same did not exactly hold true for men...

You go girl!!!!

This is what our office saw during her initial consultation. Her donor and recipient areas!
