Your Experience: Comments on Hair Transplant Surgery

We just started this site in Fall 2022, to warn people of the severe dangers of FUE and FUT surgeries. Please comment on your experience and we will post them by category. Our hope is to establish a list of victims with contact information, in order to spread awareness. That may take the form of University research or bringing this to the attention of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and forcing hair transplant companies to warn potential clients of brain damage. Hopefully we can really spread awareness and get on 60 Minutes or Good Morning America someday.


Please let us know if it's okay to keep your e-mail on file. I will reach out to confirm you are okay with us posting your comment, with your first name and location, but these are not required.

What is your story?

Permanent Affect on Brain

We are just starting to accumulate stories, but there are many online posts of Vertigo, permanent headaches, and shaking of the head. People have had strokes during the procedure, or in the days after. I personally have lost all emotion, joy, love, creativity, and focus following the surgery. Energy and sex drive severely compromised. Please reach out if you have similar side effects. 

Other Difficulties

In addition to effects on the brain, hair transplant surgery can cause permanent pain in the scalp, including sharp pains in nerves. Permanent scarring is common as well. :et us know if you have  had any difficulties.

Surgery Was Waste of Money

This is extremely common. Many men and women have no benefit from the surgery, a total waste of $5000+. For some it works minimally, maybe 5-20% of the follicles last in the long term. While they assert this is a permanent fix, doctors later say that other alternatives are recommended after surgery, such as the laser cap or finasteride (propecia). Please comment if this has been your experience.

Transplant Worked Well

There are many patients who are pleased with the surgery and the long term results. While it is very risky, with the potential for severe debilitating side effects, many people are satisfied with it and consider it a worthwhile investment.
