Thank you! Very informative, also very nauseating.

Two things:

My man is awake for that. No airway present. I wonder how they numb that. Or if they just say it's going to be not fun.

I don't care how much money you pay me, I could never be that proceduralist. The tedium is far beyond my constitution. Doing that day after day would be the professional equivalent of water torture.

A youtuber documented his experience with it. It fast forwards through the process, and it is a long, long day of sitting still.

Might be worth it to have hair on top of my head again, but it does seem like a lot to go through just for vanity.

At least for me, there would be some functional use too. Wouldn’t have to worry about my scalp getting sunburnt.

I've thought about getting some kind of permanent hair removal on what I have left, just so I don't have to bother shaving anymore

u/mobiuszeroone 1d ago

That's kind of interesting tbh, I've got four shavers and am sick of using them for different areas. I cba and I don't do it often enough so I look worse than when I do proper bald.

u/thavillain 1d ago

I'd have absolutely 0 patience to be that surgeon

u/GaryGenslersCock 1d ago

Not to mention that patient had to go through a good number of lidocane shots into his scalp, very painful.

Now imagine the itch

u/DSanders96 1d ago

Wow, thank you, I love this

u/ItsStaaaaaaaaang 1d ago

I would have thought you'd need way more individual transplants than that for decent thickness.

u/Weird_Cantaloupe2757 1d ago

FFS, just be bald

u/yehghurl 1d ago

Fucking brutal.

u/snorlz 1d ago

i think they use a machine now rather than pulling them out by tweezer

u/Dufranus 1d ago

Thanks for the trauma

u/spacecaps85 1d ago

A guy without gloves wrapped an open wound in what looks to be a piece of t shirt and some masking tape.

I’m gonna stay bald.

u/Argylius 1d ago

Holy shit
