Hair transplant surgeon to the stars says he's treating more women - but he doesn't always say yes

A hair transplant surgeon who has worked with famous names says he's getting more and more women coming to him, because "hair thinning and bald patches" does not only affect men. But Dr Matee Rajput said he doesn't always say yes to people.

Dr Rajput, 41, has made a name for himself treating celebs including Katie Price, TOWIE's James Lock, Love Island's Jack Fincham and Rosie Williams and EastEnders star Jo Swash. But he said he also treated "guys who work at Tesco" - and not all request are accepted, reports MyLondon. Dr Rajput, who struggled with hair loss himself, resulting in a transplant in 2019, said it can stem from medical conditions, hormones, ageing or be heredity.

Discussing his patients, he said: “I’ve had patients who haven’t left the house for three months because of how they look and then after the treatment they are hugging everyone [being more social]. Covid played a huge role in how people saw themselves, they were constantly seeing their faces reflected back at them in a rectangle box on a screen and many decided to change their appearance. After treatments people send me pictures of their weddings or holidays, they want me to share their progress with others and the difference it has made to them.”
