Wayne Rooney Ranks First Among Celebrity Hair Transplant Recipients

A survey was launched by the Crown Clinic a leading hair transplant clinic in Manchester, UK. The survey was meant to find whose hair transplant is the best among several celebrities who underwent the procedure. The results of the survey which compiled answers from 1,000 people clearly spelt Wayne Rooney as the winner.

The England and Manchester United striker raced past James Nesbitt and the Embarrassing Bodies doctor Christian Jessen in the survey. Dr.Christian Jessen was voted the third best top hair transplant recipient.

Rooney is one among
celebrities who have come out of the closet to reveal the fact that they went for a hair transplant procedure instead of hiding it. Loosing hair at a young age and not wanting to hide under hats, these young celebrities have come out in the open.

According to Surgeon Asim Shahmalak of the
Crown Clinic this will encourage more young men to go for hair transplants instead of sulking about hair loss and becoming depressed and introverted. Regaining hair will boost their confidence and help them perform better in their education and professions, feel experts.

Dr. Shahmalak is the hair loss expert on TV’s Embarrassing Bodies who lauded Rooney’s move to go for a hair transplant. He said that since Rooney went for the procedure at a very young age he may soon have to go for a second sitting.

Other celebrities who have improved their looks with their transplanted locks are celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey and Calum Best who went for a hair transplant procedure to advance their hairlines.

The respondents of the survey voted for Prince William as the man who would benefit the most from a hair transplant with actor Jude Law standing second who was also showing significant hair loss and a good client for hair transplant.

Dr. Shahmalak feels that William’s baldness was worse than Prince Charles’s. If he went for a transplant then even more youngsters will enthusiastically approach hair restoration clinics. Other celebrities who require hair transplants were Declan Donnelly, Chris and Johnny Vaughan according to survey respondents.

The list of celebrities who successfully gained hair includes Elton John, Louis Walsh, Shaun Williamson and celebrity hair stylist James Brown.

Crown Clinic has hair transplant clinics in Manchester, London and Dublin. The clinics boast of state of the art equipment and optimum customer service. Hair transplant involves the FUT

technique where permanent hair-bearing skin from the back and/or sides of the scalp (donor area) is used.

By stereoscope microscopic dissection, the tissue is dissected into follicular unit grafts (containing 1-4 hairs) and multi-follicular unit grafts (containing 3-6 hairs each). These microscopic grafts are then transplanted into the bald or thinning area of the scalp called recipient area. Care is taken to transplant at same angle as the other hairs to give a more natural look.

Dr. Christian Jessen, Calum Best, David Fleeshman, Peter Waterfield and Adeleh are celebrity clients of Dr. Shahmalak.

Is this scarring noticeable?

Will I need another hair transplant?

The need for another transplant really depends on the individual. With a solid foundation surgery and working to potentially bolster results with drug therapy, you can improve the stability of the hair that was transplanted as well as prevent further loss.
