Wayne Rooney Hair transplant

[limit]

I think this warrants some discussion

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...bald-cure.html

1.No secret he was losing his hair for a while, but fair play to him for not keeping this a secret. What are peoples opinions of this hair clinic? Having one of the most iconic footballers as a client is a big endorsement. Also - after sneiders FUE, does FUE look like a better way when money isn't an obstacle.

2.The article mentions him taking pills and lotion - i think we can assume this is propecia and rogaine. If you look at him over the years, his hairline continued to deteriorate; implying these treatments didnt work - what will this mean for his hair post-op?

3. Also could we make a list of footballers who have undergone hair transplants. I know ryan giggs and w.sneider have.... but who else?

Hmmm. Wouldn't have thought he'd give a toss about it. Could he be pranking us. We'll have to see.

If it is true, it will no doubt inspire others to follow suit.
Whether this is a good or a bad thing remains to be seen. Certainly, a mediocre result while loaded up on drugs to maintain that mediocrity may not be the best decision.

Some of the pics on their site look decent but again there probably the best ones. I'm sure the fact its wayne rooney he would have had specialist attention.

Guess someone with that amount of loss in the spotlight cant really hide a HT, but he has been open about his hairloss in the past so its no surprise.

I dont think its a joke pictures were taken of him leaving the clinic. Not sure I'd have picked a UK HT surgeon though.

It’s so difficult for me to understand why these celebrities don't do their research or at least have someone do it for them.

to be honest, i really don't think most celebrities go to the clinics that are the best. you don't see a lot of celebrity in holland going to feriduni or hasson and wong (or even prohair in antwerp, which isn't bad), but they all go to Gho...money has nothing to do with transplants: you've all seen jeremy piven...they mostly go to the clinic that's been profiling themselves the most i think...

Sure he can afford it on £250,000 a week.

Ryan Giggs has had a transplant?

Probably not. He has supposedly been trying finasteride, minoxidil and LLLT for awhile. His hair definitely improved for a bit but I think he's back on the downward slope again.

which clinic did rooney go to?

and i don't know many clinics that charge 250.000 per session...also, today you can pay transplants on a monthly bases, because most people don't have 50.000 euro (for example) to give away at once.
