Ok guys...heads up.
Most of you know I run a pretty blunt show when it comes to telling folks what they can expect. In fact we endeavor to show heads that 'look like' the prospective patient's head at the consultation. Anyone can show a guy with a little hairloss, thick lusterous hair, and an awesome result, but MOST guys have a good bit of hairloss, maybe even a lot...., and most guys don't have long flowing curly bushy hair....
So, Wendy and I put together this video going through 4 different guys with fine hair. 1. BIG problem, 2 cases 2. Smaller problem, 1 case 3. 1 case with color contrast 4. Repair of previous work elsewhere. All have lots of pics and a short video.
To many of you, this is old hat...but particularly newbies...thinking about a hair transplant....you guys with finer hair..watch this. I'm proud of all these results, we packed them as tight as we can, but still, fine hair is fine hair, and OFTEN, a little extra at the front at a later date can help. EVERY fine hair consultation we do, we discuss this. Most never need an extra little case at the front unless they are getting a planned second case farther back on their head....but occasionally a little more at some point does help. And almost every time, the patient will ask why we didn't pack the hairline tighter...and we go back through the major points of this video...we pack as tightly as we can but fine hair is skinny. And you have to have some tissue around the roots for it to grow, so even 0.8mm slits...will have a little skin between them at the hairline. Fat curly hairs make up for this, but with fine hair...maybe, just maybe, a few hundred more a year or 2 later, might turn a 'triple' into a home run.
The video is fairly long but we go into detail that I hope the newbies will learn from.

I recommend any newbie to contact Dr Lindsey before any other surgeon as you will get no bs and staight fact. Enjoyed the watch and results.
I can't tell you how many guys get a few thin hairs sprinkled all over their heads by other doctors and then wonder why HT didn't work. It did work..it was just executed poorly.
I am making all fine hair guys watch this preop... I had a pretty blunt talk before but this is worth a thousand words.
Thanks
Dr. Lindsey
