Can Hairy Gorilla-like Men Use Body Hair for a Scalp Hair Transplant?
Category: FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) , Hair Transplant Surgery , Other Hair SurgeriesIf you happen to be blessed with as much body hair as a hairy back gorilla, you might be wondering whether or not body hair can be used and transplanted on your balding scalp. The concept of body hair transplant surgery has been around for some time, but does it really work? Will body hair grow like scalp hair when re-transplanted? Will you experience any hair growth?
Dr. Robert True, an elite member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians offers an analysis and presentation of this topic and the types of body donor hair characteristics that are most viable to use for hair replacement surgery. You are encouraged to contribute your thoughts. See also this hair loss forum thread and read other and contribute your opinion or experience with body hair transplant procedures.
