Questions for a qualified surgeon

  • What is causing my hair loss, and am I a suitable candidate?
  • What experience do you have performing hair transplants, and who will perform each part of the procedure?
  • How much donor hair is available, what are realistic results and what follow-up care is needed?
  • What are the risks, total costs and alternatives for my situation?

The American Academy of Dermatology explains why diagnosis, available donor hair and surgeon experience matter. For nonsurgical cosmetic coverage in Lincoln, see our hair replacement guide.
