Hair/scalp cloning for unlimited transplants is likely a decade away, with prior transplants not significantly affecting future options. Advances in AI and research in wound-induced hair neogenesis are promising, but infrastructure and technology constraints remain challenges.
The conversation discusses the benefits of combining scalp stem cell treatments and exohealer with RF microneedling before a hairtransplant. The original poster recommends these treatments for better results.
Beard to scalphairtransplants can provide 12,000-15,000 grafts for coverage, with fast recovery time. However, beard hair may grow curly and not suitable for frontal areas.
A 20-year-old experiencing hair loss since age 16 is using finasteride and minoxidil and is considering future hairtransplants. Discussions include the potential for multiple transplants, the use of body hair for coverage, and the importance of treatments like dutasteride and scalp micropigmentation for maintaining hair density.
A user had two hairtransplant surgeries, using a total of 6850 grafts from the scalp, beard, and chest, costing around $20,000 USD, and is happy with the results, though the crown may not be as dense as the hairline. They experienced no scarring from the donor areas and noted that transplanted beard and chest hair are thicker and curlier.
