Amazing Hair Restoration Story

I waited until now to write this because I wanted to get the full effect of the procedure. My hair restoration procedure has been a life changing experience for me. I lost my hair late in life, and I think, in some ways its worse than if I lost it at an earlier stage in life. I did what a lot of guys did, I shaved my head when it got really bad, so when I did try to re grow it after 3 years of shaving it, to my surprise I was looking at a bald, middle aged guy in the mirror. Needless, to say I was upset, so when my girlfriend encouraged me to go for a free consultation I said what the heck, lets go hear what they have to say about the procedure. I made an appointment with one of the more known hair restoration clinic in the country, and everything they told me, and show was very impressive, but when we got to the cost of the procedure I realized I was way outside my price range, and did not see any way I could afford it there. With the help from my girlfriend- she researched on the Internet and found Treasure Coast Hair and we made an appointment for a consultation.
After a few minutes with Dr. Kurtin and Joel, I knew I found the right doctor for the job, and for a bonus, the cost was less than half of what the other clinic wanted, but that wasn't the only reason why I knew I had the right doctor for the job. Dr.Kurtin and his staff made me feel very comfortable with the procedure, and fully informed me to what at to expect during the procedure, and afterwards.
During the procedure I was allowed to watch videos, and we stopped for lunch too. There was hardly any pain, and it was over before I realized it. From the very beginning I saw a big change, but the biggest change happened between 4 to 6 months. There was hardly any maintenance to speak of.
The change in my lookout on life took a giant leap for the better. My self confidence hasn't been this high in a very long time. When I look in the mirror now I see the person I was when I was 40, I'm 50 years old. I just got back from visiting my family in NJ and the best compliment I received there was from an aunt, who hadn't seen me in about 8 years. She said that I look like I found the fountain of youth.. I can't put into words how I felt, getting so many compliments.
It's given me a new perspective on my life and given me the incentive to lose weight too. So far I've lost 20 pounds!
I owe it all to Dr. Kurtin, who made it possible for me to have the procedure. I can't say enough about Dr. Kurtin and his staff, and how comfortable they made me feel throughout the procedure, and afterwards. I would recommend to any guy that’s losing his hair to have this procedure done at Treasure Coast Hair Restoration.
I doubt you would find a better qualified doctor anywhere else- plus he really cares about his patients.
Not only will it restore your confidence- you will feel better about yourself . Let’s be honest with ourselves, who wouldn't want to look 10 years younger and feel good about your appearance again. I can't express enough how happy I am with my results. Thank You. Yours Truly, Rickey Brango
P. S. You should see me now Joel, I wanted to thank you personally for all you support throughout this whole procedure .Below I enclosed 2 pictures- one from May 09- One most recent one Oct 09 -Look at the difference!! I now have my hairline back and I'm ready for Television! >>>>

Plea For Age Limits On Hair Transplant Surgery

One of the UK's leading cosmetic surgeons is calling for age restrictions on hair transplant surgery, after seeing an alarming rise in the number of teenage boys wanting to go under the knife.

Dr Bessam Farjo, co-founder of The Farjo Medical Centre and past President of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, has seen a 23 per cent increase in enquiries coming from men aged 20 years or under over the past 12 months. Some of the enquiries the centre has received have come from the parents of boys as young as 16-years-old.

Dr Farjo explained: "Hair loss can be quite unpredictable in its early stages, with the full extent of loss difficult to determine in men under the age of 30. Men under this age should consider taking preventative drugs such as propecia, in an effort to slow down or stop their hair loss. However, a few online sources and commercial clinics are encouraging very young men to consider surgery to restore both their follicles and self-esteem."

He added: "Whilst there are many regulated forums and websites which offer sound advice, there is also a lot of inaccurate information being passed around on social networking forums."

"Surgery may improve the hairline of very young men in the short term; however, if further hair loss occurs they could find themselves with inconsistent coverage, giving them a 'patchy' look."

"Sadly, some clinics appear to be taking advantage of these vulnerable patients by agreeing to perform surgery and not advising them of the potential long-term results."

Whilst nothing can be done to stop incorrect advice being given over the internet or through non-medical sales people, Dr Farjo insists it is the responsibility of the professionals offering the treatment to advise when surgery is not an appropriate course of action. He also wants to see legal guidelines put into place to protect vulnerable and younger men.

As the UK's leading hair transplant specialists, The Farjo Medical Centre operates a strict screening process and will not treat anyone who they feel is not suitable for surgery. The centre also offers a genetic test which indicates the extent of expected hair loss, be it a slightly receding hair-line or complete hair loss.

Dr Bessam Farjo and his wife, fellow surgeon Dr Nilofer Farjo, carry out more than 300 operations each year at their Manchester clinic. More than 4,000 people have travelled from across the UK, Europe and as far as the Middle East, Australia and the United States, to the Farjo Medical Centre.

The centre has an international reputation for not only using the latest hair transplantation techniques - recognised throughout the surgical field - but for placing significant emphasis on developing pioneering ways to counter hair loss.

Jeremy Piven Hides Hair Loss With Toupee
Posted on July 21st, 2008 in Celebrity Plastic Surgery by Jet H. Ross
As Entourage fans are eagerly awaiting Ari Gold’s return to premium prime time, Make Me Heal is eager to see what new toupees Jeremy Piven wears. Jeremy is notorious for wearing toupees in lieu of receiving plastic surgery for hair restoration.

Paparazzi captured very soon to be 43-year old Jeremy’s wig getting prepped for shooting a scene on the upcoming season of Entourage, when it returns this fall. Over the years, Jeremy has worn a variety of hairpieces to mask his rapidly receding hairline, even appearing au naturel from time to time, letting the world in on his secret.

Unlike Brendan Fraser, Jeremy hasn’t yet turned to hairplugs, instead using hairpieces of varying shape to mask his baldness (See Make Me Heal’s story on Brendan Fraser’s hair loss).
Hair restoration exert warns that relying on tape and glue to attach hairpieces can actually accelerate hair loss.

Jeremy’s method of dealing with hair loss is similar to the various hairpieces that John Travolta has worn over the years (See Make Me Heal’s story on John Travolta’s hairpieces).
Jeremy’s hair loss pattern starts at his forehead and recedes all the way to the middle of his head.
Some of his hairpieces are more successful than others and even if he decided to forgo the rugs altogether, we’d still watch his heinous shenanigans with the rest of the Entourage boys.

Understanding the Common Causes of Hair Loss in Men by Daniel Beasley


Hair loss is experienced by most men at some point in their life, but may progress to become a permanent balding process. Following is a list of common questions about hair loss in men.
What causes excessive hair loss? There are many possible causes of hair loss, and some are a very natural part of the normal growth process. However, excessive hair loss may occur three or four months after a major illness or surgery. This is due to the extra stress your body experienced during that time.

Other causes may include hormonal problems such as hypo- or hyperthyroid conditions. Hair loss may also be related to an imbalance in androgens and estrogens in the body. These conditions can usually be remedied with medication, and effectively stop the hair loss.

Hair loss may also occur due to certain medications. Eliminating use of the medicine will allow your hair to grow back. Medications included in this category are blood thinners, gout medications, chemotherapy drugs, vitamin a, and antidepressants.

Fungal infections of the scalp can cause hair loss, as well as underlying diseases such as lupus or diabetes. This is why those experiencing hair loss should first schedule an appointment with their doctor to discuss possible treatments or remedies.

What is male-pattern baldness? Male-pattern baldness is the most common cause of hair loss in men, and this is usually a permanent condition that is inherited. This condition may first occur with receding hairlines, and can begin at a relatively early age. Typically, those who experience early onset will lose more hair overall in future years.

Can something be done to reverse male-pattern baldness? Many treatments are available, though not every patient will experience the same results. One popular medication, minoxidil, is used on the scalp to help prevent further hair loss, and is available without a prescription. Finasteride is a prescription medication that your doctor may prescribe for male-pattern baldness. This medication is taken in pill form, and could take as long as six months to produce results. Hair restoration surgery is another popular and successful treatment option.
