I've had 3 hair transplants over 12 years and now at 64 have a great head of hair. I had 2 FUT's and 1 FUE. The FUE gave the best results and I travelled to Budapest for this in 2020.

You’re doing a public service through these videos. Your calm demeanor and fact based edifying vids are invaluable. How can an individual find a list of doctors who use WAW systems?

[sheridanruth]

Thank you so much for this information. Regardless of how anybody chooses to face or deal with their hair loss, we deserve to have clear sources of information like this.

[prorican]

Thank you for the information. This video helped me understand the two procedures very well. l have to say that it's unfortunate that people here in the USA have to fly out of the country to get a reasonable price for these services.

I just got an FUE from Dr Sahar Nadimi in Chicago and I cannot believe how clean her work is compared to anything else I’ve seen. I’m 1 week post and my head looks amazing. Ready for the ugly duckling stage though.

Brilliant video — thank you for articulating the advantages of WAW 👍🏼

[siajay]

TY Dr. Link Linkov. I think you are the only M.D. on you tube. My question is, do you recommend a hair transplant to a 70 Y/O man who is healthy? Is it worth it? Thank you for your help.

[topazbon]

Thanks so much for this video, my girlfriends is really stressed about her hair loss and this helps a lot.

I just had my Transplant on 11/7/22. I was wondering which is better to be honest and watched this video before. I would lean heavy towards the FUT procedure. For one your not systematically thinning your hair everywhere like in an FUE. And there was an added bonus that i dont think could of happened using the FUE procedure. I was scheduled for 2000-3000 grafts. Well my donor are was thick and i had very good elasticity. I ended up getting 6000 grafts from my FUT donor spot. They did double the amount of grafts and they didn't adjust the price at all. I'm almost certain they wouldn't have kept going on a FUE procedure to give my an additional 3000 grafts for free. I'm sure no one thinks about this when choosing which one to use. FUT seems far superior to me.

This is super helpful! You don't find that information in your typical consultation. It sounds like these methods can have a big impact on your results though. Thank you for helping people with all your expertise, Dr. Linkov.

I have procedure in less than 2 weeks! This video really helped me to decide on whether I would like to go with the FUE technique or the FUT technique! Thanks 😁

I’m a woman with no balding problems what so ever, but I love watching your videos on hair transplants, for information in general. ❤ I wanted to be a plastic surgeon when I was in high school, maybe that’s why. Anyway, I became a filmmaker (nothing alike).

[locohobo]

Hi 🙂 I’m following what your saying as the video plays, but I’m having trouble seeing how each method works with others at the same time. Could you please include comparison pictures for each topic? It would be greatly appreciative. 🙂

[abdullahabd]

I'm really grateful for your advice and being simple in explaining these options clearly. 🙏

[TheCycle]

I always enjoy all the information you give. my question on the WAW procedure is, does the physician doing more of the work as opposed to the other systems you described with the robot and the technicians? I want the most natural look (obviously). Thank you.

[Johnny-xjqu]

This information is amazing. Rather than going to a random clinic and having to take their word for why the choose the method they use, we get to make educated decisions.

[theKRB]

I (presently) have no need for a hair transplant, but your channel is great so here I am anyway telling myself 'You'll want to know this in case you start balding one day'

[EsHaQ]

I just contacted 2 hair treatment facilities in turkey. The first one said, I'm not qualified for the hair transplantation, because I don't have enough hair on the donor area. The 2nd place said, I'm qualified for the treatment. I'm confused, I don't want to receive hair transplantation and then regret it in the future.

I've had 9 hair transplants starting in 2005. I have three ear-to-ear strip scars and FUE scarring. I was not taking Finasteride so I'd have surgery, lose hair, have another surgery. I now have a pretty full looking head of hair but I regret having the scars. However, it did lead me to my current profession as a Scalp Micropigmentation clinic owner/artist.

Would the wah system work with a Strat? Kidding. Very informative video. Thanks for shedding light on the robot systems.
