Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 8, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 8, 2021 There's been a lot of threads popping up recently of members asking whether or not a hair transplant is worth it. Our job on the forum is not to convince anyone to get a hair transplant. Our job is to educate them and let them make an informed decision. Below is a video with several talking points that hopefully will help all of you decide whether or not you want to pursue surgery. 1 3 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member UnbaldEagle Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 I tried my best to pay attention to what you were actually saying without contemplating how many grafts could be extracted from that nice thick beard. ADHD sucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member ahmedabad_guy Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 I think you came long way @Melvin-Moderator . Your results are excellent. I have learnt a lot about HT after my own HT only. There are lot of Pros and Cons of HT. Some of the Cons which I have gone through I will be posting on my thread very soon. People should do proper research before making up their mind so they don't get stress after HT and finally one thumb rule for all the folks who are reading this just remember your hair issue will not be fixed in one go. If you need perfect results it will require multiple surgeries. I am afraid one is not enough specially if your age is between 25 and 45. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 Excellent work! I hope people will watch this before asking the exact same things repeatedly. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. We all know how often this is cropping up recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who decided on the design, you or your doctor? Also, do you think the v shape can work for everyone? Btw, what's up with that beard man, looking ultra thick, are you using some products there too? lol Edited January 8, 2021 by JohnBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, what's up with that beard man, looking ultra thick, are you using some products there too? lol I wanted a v shape so I could have the lowest point of the hairline at 7 cm and then recede back, it’s a good way to keep a low appearing hairline, while being conservative.

Senior Member gillenator Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 It's amazing how visually profound a simple V shape design can draw the eye to the lowest point.

No products in the beard that’s all genetics. Interesting, it ended up working pretty well. A little detail that made a huge difference. HTs are somwhat of an optimization game after all. This was a great trick, as a suggestion for the next video maybe you could approach the hairline topic! Edited January 9, 2021 by JohnBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, the eyes are drawn to the center of the face. I believe it’s just a primal instinct. It’s how we gauge facial expressions on others. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Senior Member JohnBob Posted January 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) The lesson I'm getting after reading all those threads and seeing the results of other people is that while we can't *expect* a homerun result, surely there are a lot of things that can be done to increase the chances one can achieve it.
