Welcome to the new and improved HairTransplantMentor.com. I originally created this site to document my hair transplant journey in real time. I was the first hair transplant patient to photo blog hair transplant results in real time in such detail. Many years ago, I had unsuccessful mini-micro graft surgery. The results were discouraging and depressing. I wanted the mess fixed and after much research, I chose Doctor Wong of Hasson & Wong Hair Transplant Clinic, to repair that work and provide more coverage with subsequent hair transplants. This blog is about that journey.

For proper disclosure you should know that while I currently work for Hasson & Wong I did not work for them when I had my first two procedures with Dr. Wong. The documentation was unbiased and in real time.

If you are a would-be hair transplant patient, I hope you can learn something from my experience. Take a look at my hair transplant photos, and read my story. If you have any questions, contact me. I’ll try to answer and may even post that answer on the blog to help other hair loss sufferers.

Here is the most recent video of my hair restoration results.

This patient came to see Dr. Wong after having 2000 grafts via FUE.

Most clinics will give their patients a list of medications and supplements that they should avoid before hair transplant surgery. The following drugs or supplements either contain ASA, or can cause undesirable side-effects during surgery, such as excessive bleeding or bruising. These drugs should be avoided 2 weeks prior to surgery. For pain relief, switch to Tylenol or other acetominophen products. As always, refer to your specific hair transplant clinic’s… Continue reading

Is flaking of the scalp normal after a hair transplant surgery? Well, yes but it depends on how long it has been since the surgery. If your scalp is flaking and you only recently had a hair transplant then it is very normal. The scalp tends to get dry after a procedure but more than that you can have continued flaking and even crusts develop long after the actual scabbing… Continue reading

This has nothing to do with hair loss obviously but I just saw the video of Nodar Kumaritashvili, the luge competitor from Georgia (the country, not the state) and the horrible crash that ended his life. It will be difficult to find for yourself online and I will not link to the video through here but if you do view the video do so at your own risk. I think… Continue reading
