Celebrity Hair Transplants

Celebrity hair transplants is one of the most searched topics about hair loss. Today, hair transplants are becoming more common than we know in the entertainment field. Celebrities who depend on an "unmarred" appearance as part of their appeal are more inclined to opt for a hair transplant than ever before. Hair transplantation has come along way and now a hair transplant doctor can help a celebrity with hair loss keep the hair they have by using state-of-the-art techniques that mimic the angle and and growth of "native", non-transplanted hair. Hair transplants can be subtle and down-time is now much reduced compared to surgeries that were performed in the 1980s and early 90s.

The advent of follicular unit transplantation — where naturally occurring bundles of hair are transplanted into precisely sized incisions — has revolutionized the hair transplant industry. Celebrities can enjoy the benefits of hair restoration with a very high degree of success. Hair transplant clinics, such as Hasson & Wong, are renowned not only for natural results and dense packing, but also for having highly trained, seasoned technical staff who can help the doctors carry out so called "megasessions", transplanting 3000 plus grafts in one surgical session. To date, Hasson & Wong has transplanted more grafts in a single session than any other clinic in the world. 4000-7000 graft transplants are possible at clinics like Hasson & Wong because the doctors have the tools for the job, the skill, the experience, and the support of a large staff of experienced technicians.

Megasessions + Unsurpassed Artistry = Best Results. Period.

Why is a one-pass hair transplant important to a celebrity? It is simple mathematics: hair transplant clinics that cannot perform surgeries of 3000+ grafts (and that is most of them) will require multiple surgeries in an attempt to achieve a similar result. Multiple surgeries mean much more inconvenience to the patient. Celebrities will need to take a few days off for each surgical session, not to mention the post-op recovery for each surgery. With a one-pass megasession, the hair transplant is done...no second surgeries or touch ups, and less time taken away from the celebrity's career.

Megasessions are safe when performed by experienced hair transplant doctors. Doctors Victor Hasson and Jerry Wong have led the way for years and have proven that their skills are unmatched by clinics the world over. Not only do they have the ability to "get it done in one", they've pioneered breakthrough methods such as the Lateral Slit Technique and custom cut blades that match the size of a patient's grafts. These two innovations may be the most important factors in achieving high density and precise control of graft angulation and direction, both critical in creating the most important aspect of a good hair transplant: naturalness.

Celebrity Hair Transplant Photos - The Sales Pitch

Many clinics, too numerous to list, have web pages devoted to celebrity hair restoration and celebrity hair loss. These pages speculate about which celebrities have had a hair transplant. They show before and after photos of celebrities culled from the front pages of the worst Hollywood rags available. You see photos with captions describing how an actor's or rock star's hairline has changed, how the hair is longer, how the bald spot is less noticeable. In essence, they participate in the "outing" of celebrity hair transplant patients. What are the implications of participating in such salacious marketing? From the perspective of these hair transplant clinics, they want celebrities to believe that they have performed hair transplantation for the "A" list. They don't tell you they've done a hair transplant for these celebrities, but their photos are on the clinic's site, so it is implied. They want celebrities to believe that they are the clinic for the job. But...how would you feel, celebrity or not, about a clinic that purports to provide discreet hair transplants for celebrities while at the same time participating in speculation about which celebrity has had a hair transplant. A little hypocritical?

The reality is that clinics have the perfect sales tool: confidentiality. Any clinic can say that they have performed celebrity hair transplantation, but they don't have to prove it because patient confidentiality prevents them from naming their patients. A convenient catch 22: "We perform celebrity hair transplant surgery all the time...but...we can't tell you who they are". If the clinic representatives do drop a name during a consultation or phone call to entice a client, beware, as they may be dropping your name next.

The Proof is Results Not Claims

Vastly more important than whether a clinic has performed a celebrity hair transplant, is whether the hair transplant clinic has a track record of excellent results, over many years, having achieved those results consistently while supporting their claims with real proof, a hair transplant photo gallery of many such before and after photos and a lengthy roster of satisfied hair transplant patients. In addition, can the clinic do the hair transplant in one-pass? Can they get the most grafts, safely, in one session, negating the need for unnecessary surgeries while vastly decreasing patient downtime?

We'll be posting a Dr Wong compilation soon, until then, view a sampling of both doctor's results:
