Like many people, this patient was completely bald prior to coming in to see us. He flew in from New York to work with the best doctor in the world. In one hair restoration procedure, Dr. Bolton was able to get this patient incredible, life-changing results.
We are regularly asked if we are able to do hair transplants on African-Americans. The answer is yes! Whether you are black, green, blue, or orange, it does not matter. Hair texture varies greatly between races, but does not affect the possibility or results of a hair restoration procedure.
FUE hair transplants are marketed as a scar-less procedure and it is simply untrue. In fact, it is quite the opposite. A single FUE procedure will leave you with thousands of small, circular scars all over the back of your head. The worst part is that most of the time, hair is harvested outside of the safe zone, which creates the possibility of the transplanted hair falling out at a later date.
If this wasn’t bad enough, the donor area becomes severely compromised during an FUE procedure, as it harvests from such a large area. This limits the possibility of future procedures and restoration options.
As you can see, FUE procedures are clearly not scar-less. With a shaved head, FUE scars will be more noticeable than the undetectable, trace line that you are left with after a Dr. Bolton hair transplant.
Dr. Bolton explains FUE procedures, and the many undisclosed risks, in the video below:
The answer is simple; because he is the best in the industry. Nobody yields the results that Dr. Bolton produces on a daily basis, so they use his videos and before and after pictures to try to sell their own service. Dr. Bolton is easily the most copyright infringed doctor in the industry and has even won lawsuits to prove it.
It’s disgraceful that other doctors would stoop down this low. Unsuspecting patients are coaxed into thinking that the work they are being shown is a result of the thief in front of them.
This is Dr. Bolton’s patient Ryan. His full hair transplant journal is listed on this blog and can be viewed by clicking here.
Dr. Bolton exposes these crooks regularly and wants to ensure that you, as the patient, are not being misled or deceived.
We receive many requests from people like the gentleman below who want to know what we recommend for them. We tell them that they are a challenging case because of the amount of hair they have lost relative to what we can give them back in one procedure. We are honest and straight-forward, and we do not just tell people what they want to hear. This gentleman was told he would get coverage from front to back with an FUE procedure. FUE is a disaster for a patient with this type of hair loss. FUE is low yield and causes severe damage to the donor area. He simply needs hair, and FUE does not produce much of that. Nobody moves more hair then Dr. Bolton. He regularly moves 10,000 – 15,000 hairs in less then 6 hours from start to finish. This gentleman got approximately 3,000 hairs and his donor is now severely compromised because it has 3,000 FUE scars, covering the entire donor area and beyond. Unfortunately, most people have an expensive learning experience their first procedure. You can’t cover an entire area this large with FUE unless you spread it thin. It is also not a scar-less procedure. You can save money by traveling internationally, but does it look like it was worth it? FUE is marketed very well by the companies that sell the machines, but their claims are completely bogus.
