Robbie Fowler has unveiled the results of his hair transplant.
The Liverpool FC legend underwent the procedure to restore his hairline at the Farjo Hair Institute.
The 46-year-old claimed he was never worried about going completely bald, but wanted to restore it back to how it looked at the end of his playing career.

He said: “My hair had never really bothered me to the point where I was worried about going completely bald. I remember having conversations with my dad and I always joked with him about our hairlines as we’d both started to recede a bit.
“My dad actually passed away a few years back and I’m not saying I had the procedure because of the banter I had with him about it, but I did sort of look at myself in the mirror and thought I’d feel better with a more defined hairline.
"I felt I just needed a little bit of a touch up to get it looking how it once did.”
The Toxteth-born striker is thrilled with the results of the procedure - and has opened up on the subject to remove the stigma around getting a hair transplant.
He said: "I’m absolutely delighted with how it’s turned out and I would recommend it to anyone considering it. If you look at my hair towards the end of my career, what I have now is very similar.
“If you want to get it done, go for it. It’s really quite common these days. It’s not a taboo subject anymore. I’m happy to talk openly about it and I have no hesitation about recommending it to people if it’s something that’s bothering them.”
The operation was performed Dr Bessam Farjo, who said the former footballer was a great candidate for the procedure since he had a "good head of hair to begin with".
He added: "Robbie was a great candidate for a hair transplant as he had a good head of hair to begin with.
"It was a case of finessing the hair line to achieve a fuller look from the front. I’m really pleased with his progress - I think the results speak for themselves.
"The conversations around hair transplants have changed, especially over the past decade. Nowadays it’s a completely normal medical procedure to invest in if someone is concerned about hair loss and wants to do something to boost their confidence and feel better about themselves.”
