Celebrity Hair Transplants

Men around the world struggle with hair loss, and for a long time, there was not much that could be done about it. However, thanks to modern medical advances, hair transplants represent a viable option for image-conscious men the world over. More and more people are choosing to undergo a hair transplant in Turkey for a wide variety of reasons.

Few people are under as much scrutiny as celebrities. Being constantly in the public eye means that image is everything. Many more men are feeling confident enough to be open about their procedures. So, who’s had a hair transplant and what do they think? Read on to find out.

Wayne Rooney

The former Manchester United player and current Derby County coach was very public about undergoing a hair transplant. In 2011, at the age of 25, Wayne Rooney posted a picture of his thinning hair to Twitter with the caption “Just to confirm to all my followers I have had a hair transplant. I was going bald at 25 why not. I’m delighted with the result. It’s still a bit bruised and swollen when it dies down you will be first to see it. Anyone recommend any good hair gel. Haha.”

Louis Walsh

The X-Factor judge admitted to having a hair transplant to cover up an ever-growing bald spot on top of his head. After years of trying to keep up with his younger co-stars, he dropped £30,000 on a hair transplant calling it “maintenance”.

“It’s called maintenance. It’s not a wig or a syrup of figs or an Irish jig. It’s just me, with my own hair, feeling better.”

Joe Swash

Of former Eastenders fame, Joe Swash has been very open about his decision to undergo a hair transplant early in his career. His reason? “With the job I am doing, being on TV, I wanted to look my best, which is probably not the best way of thinking about it. It’s how you feel personally.”

James Nesbitt

The recipient of not one – but two – hair transplants, the Cold Feet actor was so satisfied with his results, that he made a public video testimonial. His praise for the procedure couldn’t be higher claiming he’d “go as far as to say they’ve changed my life.”

Jason Gardiner

In 2017, the former X-Factor contestant posted a selfie to Instagram picturing his bloody, post-operative hairline and telling his fans “So just in case anyone sees me and thinks it’s Frankenstein, I’ve sorted my hairline out after years of insecurities.”

When asked later about his decision, he responded “I took the dive and did something about it! I am delighted with how it has turned out!”

Other famous faces who have undergone hair transplants include John Travolta, Tom Hanks, Elton John, and Jamie Foxx.

With this much celebrity attention being drawn to the amazing results offered by modern hair transplant surgeons, it’s little wonder why so many men are turning to hair transplants. Since 2012, hair transplants worldwide are up 42% and many men are beginning to consider just what their options might be,

The Dr Serkan Aygin Clinic

As a world-leading pioneer with over 25 years of experience, Dr Serkan Aygin has personally overseen several celebrity hair transplants. Many people choose to undergo a hair transplant at The Dr Serkan Aygin Clinic due to our advancements in Sapphire FUE hair transplants and our pain-free, needleless SOFT anaesthesia.

Sapphire FUE

Follicular hair extraction (FUE) hair transplants involve removing healthy hair follicles from a donor area before implanting them into the recipient area. To do this, a hair transplant surgeon creates thousands of small incisions into which the hairs are placed. Traditionally, this was done with a steel blade, however, Dr Aygin has perfected the use of sapphire blades during an FUE transplant. This allows for the creation of finer channels, leading to a larger and denser amount of grafts.

SOFT Anaesthesia

We are also specialists in the use of pain-free, needleless anaesthesia. So-called “SOFT” anaesthesia uses high pressure to push the medication into the skin without the need for needles.
