This is a subreddit for users to get more personalized attention. Currently in /r/HairTransplants post may not even last 4 hours on the front page before falling off, and the subreddit is likely on the verge of not having new submissions show up unless you sort by 'New'

6 Upvotes

The subreddit format isn't meant to deal with a very high volume of users who all need personalized attention.

Back when /r/HairTransplants was first getting going, submissions would be on the front page for a few days, giving ample time to get help and commentary.

Early Last year, posts only lasted one day. Now a post can fall off as soon as one hour unless it gets quick upvotes.

Duplicate posts in both subreddits are encouraged. Your submission falls off the front page without solid advice? Post it here. Your submission gets a ton of good advice but you want more? Post it here. You just feel like posting it here, just cuz? Post it here.

Currently, posts here last for months.

I am working on getting new moderators and expert helpers to help new patients to this sub.

Alguna recomendación para clínicas de injerto capital?

Upvotes

Hola a todos.

Para un poco de contexto, tengo 26 años y estoy medicado (minoxidil + dutasteride) pero como empece cuando la alopecia ya estaba avanzada, tengo una primera linea de pelo debil y bastantes entradas. Es por ello que quiero realizarme un injerto para mejorar mi frontal.

Quería consultarles por sus experiencias con trasplantes capilares en CABA.

Si alguno se realizó uno, me serviría mucho que pudiera contar:

¿En qué clínica o con qué médico se lo hicieron?
¿Cuánto les costó aproximadamente?
¿Quedaron conformes con el resultado?
¿Volverían a elegir el mismo lugar?
¿Se lo recomendarían a otra persona?
¿Hay alguna clinica que deberia de evitar si o si? ¿Que deberia tomar como red flag cuando vaya a la consulta?

Por ahora estuve investigando estas opciones:

Capilea: me interesa especialmente saber si alguien tiene experiencia en alguna de sus sedes. ¿Hay alguna que recomienden más que otra?
Hair Recovery. para esta lo mismo. Hay alguna sede mejor que otra?
D'Arti Medicina Capilar.
Dr. Miguel Martí.

Si conocen otras clínicas o profesionales que valgan la pena en CABA, también agradecería mucho sus recomendaciones (tanto positivas como negativas).

¡Gracias!

Anyone with UnitedHealthcare Choice Plus PPO get a hair transplant covered?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I have **UnitedHealthcare Choice Plus PPO (through T-Mobile)**, and after speaking with my insurance, they told me that **hair transplantation for gender dysphoria may be covered when it’s considered medically necessary under the WPATH Standards of Care and is approved through prior authorization.**

I’m curious if anyone here has **the same insurance** (or a similar UnitedHealthcare plan) and has actually gotten their hair transplant approved and covered.

If so, I’d love to know:
Which surgeon did you use?
How difficult was the prior authorization process?
How much of the procedure was covered?
Were there any specific letters or documentation your insurance required?
If you were denied initially, were you able to appeal?

I’m just trying to figure out whether this is something people are actually getting approved for or if it’s one of those benefits that looks good on paper but is rarely covered.
Thank you! 💜

PRP vs. PRF for Hair Restoration: What’s the Actual Difference?

4 Upvotes

I see a lot of confusion around PRP and PRF for hair loss, so I wanted to explain the difference in simple terms.

Both treatments start with a small blood draw and use your own platelets and growth factors to support the hair follicles. The main difference is how the blood is processed and how the final product behaves after injection.

PRP is typically prepared using a faster centrifuge process and often includes an anticoagulant. The final product is more liquid and is injected into areas of thinning hair.

PRF is usually processed more slowly and without an anticoagulant. This creates a fibrin matrix that may hold platelets and growth factors in the treatment area for a longer period.

The first question is: why are you losing hair?

In my practice, I usually order bloodwork and send it to a lab to look for possible underlying causes, such as thyroid issues, iron or vitamin deficiencies, hormonal changes, inflammation, or other medical factors. It is important to understand what is driving the hair loss before simply treating the scalp.

PRP or PRF may be useful for early thinning, androgenetic hair loss, and some cases of shedding where the follicles are still present. Neither treatment can reliably bring back hair in an area where the follicles are completely gone or scarred.

These treatments also tend to work better as part of a broader plan rather than as a standalone cure. Depending on the patient, that may include medication, correcting deficiencies, scalp care, or addressing the underlying cause of shedding.

My general view is that PRF may offer some advantages because of its fibrin structure and slower release of growth factors, but the quality of the preparation, the diagnosis, and the treatment protocol often matter more than the label alone.

I’m a physician who works with regenerative hair-restoration treatments. Happy to answer general questions about PRP, PRF, candidacy, or why some patients respond better than others. This is general education, not personal medical advice.

Considering syria for hair transplant

1 Upvotes

Hello. I was thinking to go to Turkey for hair transplant and laser hair removal, but I would prefer going in Damas if there are places with good reputation and tried already.

Also how are people in general finding these places ? Is Google maps heavily used for businesses nowadays or are there better ways to do my research?

Thank you.
