Restoration Robotics and Neograft to Merge?

This is something I wasn't expecting but I'm not surprised. It looks like the original Neograft FUE machine, and the company behind it, was acquired by a company called Venus Concept LTD, which is a Canadian based company. They make and design medical aesthetics products and added the Neograft to their portfolio. Now it appears that they're "merging" with Restoration Robotics, the company behind the famous ARTAS robot, the first robot in the world that performed hair restoration surgery.

My guess about this is that Venus Concept LTD is on … read more

Los Angeles FUE Hair Transplant – 2019

Happy New Year to you all! 2018 was a great year for many reasons and one of those reasons, for me, was that I was happy to have accepted Los Angeles FUE Hair Transplant doctor Dr. Baubac and the Alvi Armani Clinic in Beverly Hills onto Hairtransplantmentor.com. As I said in my initial clinic introduction video, I'd been getting a lot of inquiries from people wanting to know whom I recommend in the LA area and I felt that Dr. Baubac was a great fit for that puzzle.

Natural Hairline. What Does This Mean?

What makes a natural hairline? What I am going to discuss may be offensive to some clinics and doctors. However, it is time to talk about what every experienced hair transplant doctor knows and understands. Natural hairlines are less common today than they were ten years ago. "But Joe, how can this be true if technology has advanced so much?". The reason why natural hairlines are less common now more than ever is because of one reason. Money.

Origins of The Natural Hairline

Why is money responsible for the lack … read more

Best Rated Hair Transplant Doctors

You've seen them everywhere, the best rated hair transplant doctors have all of the logos and seals that prove they are the best rated hair transplant doctors. But what do these logos and seals really mean? Do they legitimately mean that the doctor you're looking at is one of the best rates hair transplant doctors you can find? In this episode of Hair Transplant Class I take a look at the many different hair transplant and hair loss societies and associations that you are most likely to come across when … read more

Matthew McConaughey Hair Transplant

Matthew McConaughey Hair Transplant. It's more than a catchy title for a hair loss blog post. I rarely ever get involved in discussions about celebrity hair transplants because I think they're boring. Like in most subjects I'm not a fan of conjecture and speculation especially when it has nothing to do with me or if it will not ever affect me in any way. It's just a waste of time. I also think that it's just kind of tacky because celebrities are people too and I don't think it's fair … read more

Propecia Side Effects – HT Class #003

Propecia Side Effects

I’ve had some opinions about how patients deal with their hair loss that haven’t always been popular. This is more of an issue since Propecia side effects have become more regularly discussed with time. The reasons why my opinion hasn’t always been popular is because I prefer to encourage people to use their brains and not simply rely on third party information and hearsay when it comes to their own long term hair restoration plans. The people that you read about or the people that you listen … read more

Hair Transplant Information

I get this question from time to time. "What are your qualifications?" This is usually from the occasional new guy just starting his hair loss or hair transplant information search or from a new to the industry doctor feeling his way through the online hair world for the first time. Inevitably they'll find my name, this website, or they'll see me on Spencer Kobren's The Bald Truth every week. Somehow, they find me so it is a logical question to ask since I don't give the appearance of being tied … read more

A Tour of Shapiro Medical Hair Transplant Clinic

In part I of my visit to see Minnesota Hair Transplant doctor, Dr. Ron Shapiro, I shared what the accommodations are like and how to get to the clinic. Yea, I know; fun stuff! I always start my videos with that type of information because I know that a lot of people travel from outside of the region to visit doctors I work with so I feel it's important and helpful to my viewers to get an idea of what they can expect outside of the hair transplant clinic, … read more

For years people have talked about who is considered to be the best hair transplant doctor in the country, or the world and there are always a few names that are always mentioned. Dr. Ron Shapiro, a Minnesota hair transplant doctor, is one of those names that keeps getting repeated year after year.
