In Part Two of this in-depth discussion, hair transplant surgeons Dr Mani Mittal and Dr Mondrian Parissis continue the conversation with David Anderson, focusing on patient selection, expectations, and what truly separates average results from elite outcomes.

We explore age and suitability for surgery, particularly in younger patients with diffuse thinning, and discuss the biggest red flags patients should watch for when choosing a clinic. The conversation also addresses guarantees, disappointing results, and how ethical clinics approach long-term responsibility.

From the art of zig-zag hairline design to deciding when crown surgery is safe, this episode offers rare insight into how experienced surgeons think beyond marketing claims. We also look ahead to the future of hair transplantation, the rise of the hair loss influencer, and what truly defines an elite surgeon — including planning, technician involvement, and clinic infrastructure.

This episode is essential viewing for patients who want clarity, realism, and long-term thinking before committing to surgery.
