Are You Unsatisfied With Your Current Treatment for Hair Loss?

by Laura on October 14th, 2007

Is Rogaine or Propecia not doing what you expect it to? What about hair plugs - are they looking a little unnatural? You may want to consider an actual scalp transplant. That’s right, you read that correctly. I said scalp transplant.

Thanks to successful surgeries such as a face transplant, and immunosuppressant drugs - a scalp transplant may be available in the not too distant future. I believe its being developed for burn victims and similar injuries, however anything can be yours, if enough money is involved.

The Business Shrink raises a really interesting question to this scenario,

What lengths of hair are people willing to go to have a full head of hair again. Does the thought of having a corpses well groomed head of hair give anyone the creeps? The hair that would grow from your hair at any moment would have been groomed, cut and even colored by another person for 20, 30 or even more years. The compliment, “I love your new hair style” would come to mean greater and more bizarre things.

What do you think? If you were guaranteed a great head of hair - that once belonged to someone else, and was attached to your own head in this manner. Would you consider this type of surgery?

I would really like to know what you would do.
