Presentation Transcript

  1. It’s the day after I’ve had my hair transplant surgery which started at 1 pm yesterday and finished at 8.45 pm by the time I left on Friday 13th November 2020. And I want to take this opportunity to share with you my hair transplant journey which ultimately began less than 6-weeks ago. Pretty much courtesy of a conversation I had with Craig Campbell – who’s just had his second hair transplant done – using the clinic I am now a patient of – Longevita.

  2. WHAT SURGERY LOOKS LIKE It’s ridiculous to think that 6-weeks ago I had never considered the idea of having a hair transplant surgery– and now I spent the best part of 6-hours yesterday having a full medical team cut into my head to remove a bunch of hair follicles from the back of my head – And put it on the top of my head.

  3. A huge improvement – now it looks like a very nasty graze that’s being treated. As you can see from the timestamp – those photos are basically thirteen hours apart. You’ve not yet seen the back of my head though. So the top is where the implants took place.

  4. WHY MEN GO BALD It’s only been since having the operation I looked more into the progressive stages of baldness – My sides and back are strong (as most men’s are) with healthy sets of hair – and I’m displaying the common thread of male pattern baldness – which if you google looks like this:

  5. THE JOURNEY TO GETTING A HAIR TRANSPLANT Now I’ve laid down the groundwork – let’s go back a few steps and talk more about my thoughts of myself and what led me to ultimately getting an invasive surgery on my head done with several hours under the knife. Lockdown had provided me with an opportunity to grow my hair – because why not?

  6. PICKING LONGEVITA (THE CLINIC I GOT A HAIR TRANSPLANT WITH) After several back and forth messages with Craig, doing some independent googling, being told he went to Longevita because his mate got it done from there, I’d ultimately a couple of weeks later book in. I think it did no harm that Longevita seemed to be amongst the cheapest people out there, and there was nothing to identify online that the service would correspondingly be the same.

  7. THE SURGERY ITSELF This is an experience all unto itself, and something I didn’t mentally prepare for either. In fact, no-one spoke to me in any detail (neither Craig nor Longevita) about what the experience of the surgery would actually be like. Some of that has in part to relatively caring free when it comes to doing things out of the ordinary. That has pretty much been the norm for me for years.

  8. The Surgical Consult After forms have been signed there’s some waiting around as you’re put into their queue system before you head in and see one of their doctors. Then the surgeon came over – took a look at the top of my head and started marking parts of the print out of a human head for the operating surgeon and technicians to use – and started comparing that with looking at the baldness atop my noggin. So basically, they come in – eyeball the bald spot, draw it out on their print-out and then show it to you to confirm it you’re happy with that – and then use a permanent marker to draw around the whole area. What was interesting was he was looking at the front of my head – my hairline basically – and I didn’t realise so clearly that there’s a kind of ‘pokey out’ bit – you can see here where it’s fuzzy at the front:

  9. WHAT ABOUT SIDE EFFECTS? This is the attractive part of this whole therapy I guess – because you’re using your own blood – there basically aren’t any side effects. The only one’s that will really come up is a consequence of the injection itself – which are the same risks from getting any injection in general

  10. THE HAIR TRANSPLANT RECOVERY PERIOD The whole period takes up to a year before you see the final result – so I know it’s going to be something of a journey until I get to see the full outcome of the recovery. The only frustrating thing is that the hairs that are original atop my head are going to continue thinning out as they don’t have the same kind of protection from DHT as the implanted hairs have.

  11. FINAL THOUGHTS Well, the journey hasn’t finished yet but it’s already been a journey to get here – and now the most traumatic parts of it are over. So all in all – I’d recommend Longevita as a company to go ahead and get your hair transplant with!
