I think this just further reinforces the importance of having a good, honest, and involved surgeon.

Man, your head is so perfectly shaped for being bald, not everyone looks so good...

[hkszerlahdgshezraj]

Eyebrows looking nice there Dr. Linkov. Treatment's doing something it seems.

I think doctor Gary is very cute and he looks so natural without hair. He is so cool. And it's very psychologically comfortable and non-toxic the way he talks about this sensitive thing

[GreySectoid]

9:32 Wisdom and the reason I subscribe this channel. Not only Gary is of course a medical professional but he has an excellent grasp of human psychology as well.

This was such a chill and informative and normalising video, really enjoyed hearing this both very professional and human perspective!

Dr. Linkov, can you please make a video about your own hair regrowth journey? Would be great to see what has been done, because it’s the first time I see someone having such amazing results with alopecia ❣️ Thank you!

My son started losing hair in his early 20s. By his late 20s he had a grandpa head (a ring of hair from ear to ear) with nothing to comb over in the middle even if he'd wanted to. Around 30, when he'd been married a few years, he went into his bathroom and shaved it all off. He's been that way ever since. He's now 54 and handsome as ever.

Merry Christmas, Gary! Thanks so much for providing us with crucial information about hair loss throughout the year. I can easily say on behalf of most young adults you've given us solutions to approach a big insecurity most of us might face. Whether you celebrate or not, have a great day!

Dr. Gary you seem so realistic and caring. I wish more doctors were thorough and well spoken like you. I went 10 years without getting a diagnosis for basic small fiber neuropathy. In that time I learned that the medical profession is full of untrained, uneducated people. Maybe people that forgot their education? Not sure. I live in america, supposedly one of the greatest countries in the world. The medical system failed me and my quality of life is worse now because a bunch of the "best" neurologists in new york, philly and new jersey could not do a basic skin biopsy. A physical therapist diagnosed me and sent me to her neurologist. It's a sad state when physical therapists are better than neurologists at their job.

So anyways, this is all to say that I appreciate doctors that care. Doctors that can speak clearly and concisely. Doctors that don't gaslight you. Doctors who are sensitive to people's mental struggles (like those patients who are very emotional about going bald) and I can tell you are one of those men.

[Valkiyor]

Gary, you are indeed right, we tend to judge ourselves more thinking about how people would perceive us..there is nothing shameful in staying bald!

Merry Christmas Doctor! I just had a hair transplant of 2039 grafts 2 weeks ago and your channel has helped me so much leading up to the surgery and for what to expect in the coming months. Thanks for all your helpful info☺️

I didn't think the line on the back of his head was all that terrible

A good hair transplant will definitely last a lifetime. You might not keep 100% of what was transplanted but 80% for sure if you take care of it, and are regimented with the finasteride and minoxidil treatments. Also: never do it on the cheap, and don’t do mega sessions. Better to do 3 smaller sessions over a five year period than one big one where the blood flow isn’t adequate to keep all the grafts growing.

As a nurse I will say as tempting as it can be to have a procedure done in another country (due to the finances), if anything goes wrong, things can get really complicated…

[helianabanes]

As a woman, it is interesting to see this kind of almost dysmorphia, talking about all of his insecurities and then showing the pictures and not seeing any problem.

[roundninja]

He actually looks pretty good with short hair, even after the messed up transplant. I always wondered actually if an extremely low density transplant over a large area could work, if you just keep the hair really short? Like for guys who are Norwood 5 or more

[Kat]

He should have been on some medical therapy/medication after he got the transplant to prevent any thinning hair. Prevention is key especially if you pay that much money for the procedure, you want to maintain those results.

I remember watching the original video and as soon as he said “it started thinning”, I asked myself was he even doing anything to keep up with it?

Love Bald Cafe!!! He’s doing great things over there for our folically challenged fellows! 👏🏻
