I had a hair transplant. Watched soap operas on a bed for 5 hours while they worked on me, and now I have hair like 80s Richard Dean Anderson. (Was nearly Patrick Stewart before.) Until this treatment is ready I recommend what I did. :)

The result will vary and the hair will thin eventually. Still, much better than the alternative, I would also very much recommend it.

  If you do PRP treatments a few times a year, apparently the transplants hold indefinitely. Or so I have been told by my doctor…

    Yeah, they told me that too, but I don't know how much of it is backed by science vs them just wanting to sell more expensive treatments.

When I was 16 I had full afro. When I was 20 I had like one tenth of an afro, and since then, I just shave my head. Looks good actually, the only problem is that shaving can be annoying.

Still, if this UCLA treatment actually delivers, I'd be curious to see how it compares to transplants in terms of results and cost

  I don't remember exactly, but I'd guess $5k back then.. I remember I used reddit to get a recommendation for a doctor. But then there was another forum and I validated him there, before I decided.
