Question:
Dear Dr Epstein
I would like to know if you offer hair transplant repair using chest hair. I have already had a sample of 100 chest hair grafts transplanted to the scalp and it has been growing well for 16 months now. The maximum length it reaches is about 3 inches and the color matches my scalp hair. I will be happy to send you pictures in due course but initially I would like to know if this is a procedure you offer and the cost.
Thanks
Kevin
Answer:
Dear Kevin- Yes, in those patients with good chest hairs, I can transplant as many as 750 or more in a single day’s procedure. It is nice to hear that you have had successful results with your test procedure, and would be happy to have you as a patient. Go ahead and send some photos my way, and please expect Jon from my office to contact you.
