‘People think it’s strange that I had a hair transplant at 80’

“In 2010, my son Wesley underwent the procedure at the age of 30, using a technique that left his hair artificial. At the time, I didn’t like it. In 2017, he underwent it with another professional, performed the transplant with a more modern technique and the result was good. I started to consider hair transplantation as an option and went to meet the doctor who treated him.”

Responsible for caring for father and son, trichologist João Gabriel Nunes explains that preventive and aesthetic medicine helps people feel better about themselves.

“Hair was and still is a complaint. Having a young body and face, but being bald did not close this circle. The elderly are seeking quality of life, youthfulness and longevity with more willingness to fulfill their dreams and desires”, explains the professional, which works at the Hair Medical Center, in the interior of São Paulo.

Years ago, the high price and the issue of naturalness weighed a little on carrying out the procedure, today I can say that the results are natural and often imperceptible even for hairdressers accustomed to dealing with all types of hair. João Gabriel Nunes, trichologist

“Baldness was incompatible with my state of mind”
