The Bald Truth - 7 Popular Posts

Thebaldtruth.com is a hairloss forum, here are there 7 must read posts from their site. 

1 - Robotic Hair Transplant

Ever wonder what a hair transplant is all about?  

If so, you can see a live transplant on thebaldtruth.com. 

They show some steps taken during a robotic procedure that was performed on air live.  

This is a surgery done by a robot, you can also chose to have a Doctor perform a hair transplant by hand. 

The robotic procedure is more accurate than the hand procedure but it does require training on how to use the robot.  If you are looking into this procedure you should make sure the doctors are trained properly.   

You will want to be evaluated by a doctor to determine if this is the proper procedure for you.  

Thebaldtruth.com also has a video of a woman receiving a transplant that is done by doctors, not a robot.  If you are thinking about having either procedure done, these videos may help you see what it is all about.
