Frequently asked questions

Which athletes have confirmed a hair transplant? WWE star and actor John Cena publicly confirmed his hair transplant in 2024. The other athletes on this page are based on media reports or fan speculation and are labelled accordingly.

Why do athletes get hair transplants? Athletes are highly visible and, like anyone, can develop male-pattern hair loss in their twenties and thirties. Modern FUE and DHI techniques are minimally invasive with short downtime.

Learn how modern FUE and DHI hair transplants work, what they cost in Turkey, and whether you might be a candidate: no pressure, just information.
