Just the chaos in the thumbnail made me click right away!
Totally! 😂
I saw the hair and was like wtf
@@Auror2k05 I didn't realize it was a SMOSH parody video from the thumbnail, and actually thought it was a botched result at first lol, that would look absolutely insane 😭
That’s giving Theresa Giudice. I’d like to unsee this living rent free in the cerebral cortex
Same
I'm just here to see Dr Gary fighting a smile 😄
Dr Gary's wry commentary definitely elevates the over the top humor of the original video, increases the hilarity! The perfect way to inform and educate. 🎉
It’s hilarious 😂
Plot twist: that girl is talking to Dr Linkov. 😂
Bald ( shaven) looks great and distinguished 99 percent of the time.
best lookin bald guy on the internet! yeah, thats you, dr gary.
thats very objectively not true but i respect your attempt of trying to make him feel good
i used to ride my bike 4 1/2 miles to the library to use the internet & watch smosh when i was a kid hahaha what a heartwarming throwback
That’s awesome! Me and my dad used to watch Smosh together in their early years. 😹
Dr Gary watching funny videos while educating people, great man!
That hairline was so low it almost went Chewbacca's style
Going on 3 months into my FUE procedure, would have never done it without the knowledge I’ve attained from watching your content, thank you Doctor Gary!
Dr Linkov you are right. I got to a place in my life where I was happy. The hair transplant was the icing on the cake. I feel so good, it looks amazingly natural.
For years I kept trying to cover my baldness up and it just looked worst untill i accepted it and went bald and i actually looked way better too, i felt like jason stanham lol and i actually did get my self esteem up and started to date again, my Gf doesnt care that im bald and she thinks im hot as i am so, its abouy accepting it and owning it and you will feel and look better 🥰
Awe, I’m happy to hear that! My husband is losing his hair and he is really struggling. I wish I knew how to make him feel better about it.
@@abigailkiana8852 make him watch movies with badass bald actors lol have him grow a beard if he doesnt have one, it actually looks good 🙃
Hair looks better on everyone
@@rafeeqwarfield9690 hmmm nah, if i grew my hair back, i wouldnt like it or look good in it anymore.
@@ev0wizard hair frames the face and that’s typically a good thing that’s all
I just love seeing Dr. Gary’s candid reactions.
I am happy being bald. Yes I would love to have hair again but it is so much easier to shave it and cheaper as well.
The crossover we never knew we needed ❤
It is true that appearance not all makes you attractive but it is a part of it. If you are a jerk, appearance won't help you for anything.
I think there should be some therapy for people considering surgery BEFORE undergoing surgery. Therapy should help the patient understand why the surgery is desired, realistic expectations of the results, and how you will accept the new YOU as well as the reactions of others. I had a few surgeries and the results were awesome. They were almost TOO awesome because the new people who were concentrating their focus on me (who I felt would not have given me the time of day before) was just so .... alien. I had come to feel like I was cosplaying as a better version of myself and that was what everyone was reacting to. It's so hard to describe in a paragraph- but I think talking to more people with professional intuition might have set me up for a healthier experience and I wish to share that hindsight with others.
This was hilarious, watching your videos really helped me choose the right clinic to go to for my hair transplant. Love the videos Dr Gary! 😊
Watching you is healing. I absolutely love your approach to... Everything. I wish you all the best!
I have been to Turkey myself. The considerations: good informative conversations in advance where advice was also given regarding products/therapies. So in addition to the transplant. The transplant itself is carried out in Turkey, but they have a department in the Netherlands that does the intake. In my own environment I know several people who have been to the same clinic and they have had good experiences. Plus they were doctors who were only concerned with this subject. So it wasn't a side job. I have to be honest, it went great for me: communication was great, treatment was easy to endure and progress is well monitored (sometimes to the point of being annoying). If I need a second treatment, I will go to the same clinic in Turkey again. Only disadvantage: traveling. I didn't really feel the need to act like a tourist after the transplant. Ps: I had my text translated from Dutch to English via Google Translate.
I'm disappointed that you didn't introduce us to your creepy friend who was just hanging out behind you during the entire video 😂
Now I can’t unsee the creepy friend 😂
chair
Wow. Two of my most watched creators on CZcams in the same vid. Thank you, Dr Gary! A fusion I’d’ve never seen coming
Good to see you showing sensitivity to the mental heath side. It's so important and also so important that surgeons and clinics navigate it appropriately 👌
First I watched your videos to educate myself and now just for the fun of it 😅
He should have just gotten a BBL too😅😅😅
😭😭😭
I've been studying for the SATs! I know this one! Dr. Gary is to hair transplant sketches as Neil deGrasse Tyson is to space movies.
Dr. Gary and Smosh collab! Never thought two of my fav channels would cross paths👋👋👋
I always love your videos videos.😊
Always love to see you teach us, over comedy or not! Thanks Dr. Linkov :)
The smile made my day😭
I love how this video is funny and educational at same time.
The whole hairtransplant and stressing about hair, sometimes really gets to me as a woman with alopecia🥴
Loved seeing this video !! 😊
I'll take a bit of that hairline if he doesn't want it 😭
I agree people should be open about what they had done! Embrace it! You’re saying you value yourself and your own happiness.
But you know men face stigmas against getting hairline transplants.
@@kevinsamson1693this is how we get rid of the stigma. By being open about it.
LMAO the plug in the end is just brilliant
Very interesting point at around 1:31. I think many people get addicted to surgical procedures because they feel like there is something wrong in their appearence, when in reality their mental health is not in a good state.
Accepting yourself before getting any procedure done, in my opinion, is essential: without self-love, the feeling of satisfaction after surgery expires almost instantly and you will start finding new flaws in your appearance to fix, desperately looking for an happiness you won’t ever find.
Mental health is the first thing! ❤️
as a Turkish woman, feel embarrassed :( Turkish hairlines noooo 😿
If I go to Turkey, it will be to visit the cats 😻🐾
Tiroyit tedavisi oldugum icin boyle yorum yaptim sacimda epey dokulmeler oluyordu su an onlemi alindi mutluyum tedavi devam😊😊😊❤
I happen to like bald men and also I’m attracted to smart, mentally strong men! My husband doesn’t have a lot of hair and not once has that bothered me!
Is finasteride necessary after transplant? Or is there alternatives? I’m weary of the side effects
This was hilarious 😂😂😂
Dr Gary, do you offer skin lightening/bleaching?
whats cracking me up is that he keeps like refusing to laugh and holds it in LOLL
He is Soo handsome and his voice is sooo soothing ❤
Joke aside, I've seen very negative results on people who went to Turkey for hair transplant. It falls off and does not regrow.
Hey Dr, does HIMS shampoo work?
I wish i could look good like you with a bald head, Love your channel
💯 I got a thing for bald guys
You probably have a thing for clean shaven heads more than bald, horseshoe patterned heads. You can easily see of a guy is actually bald or not by looking at whether their head is shiny.
A very macabre humour
Very funny 😄
Skit by someone brilliant 👏
I got spooked by the chair in the backround. Looks like a ghost standing creepily.
Have a good head space before thinking of getting a full head of hair. 👍👍
Can you tell anything about Nourkrin and Pantovigar?
Aww I remember watching smosh as a teenager and the smosh guys had thick scene hair. I thought Anthony was so cute because he kind of resembled Tom Delonge 😂 I feel so old now lol
I’d totally tell people I’d had a hair transplant or any cosmetic procedure. I’d be having it to feel better. Wouldn’t care if anybody knew I’d had some assistance to do that
Hello from Europe. There are SUPER good/bad hair transplant Dr`s in Turkey and USA or any country. 17 years ago I searched a talented rhinoplasty Dr from USA and narrowed down to few and flew for consultation. I chosen a facial plastic surgeon in Omaha, that only does faces, mostly noses and people fly to him from all over the world. My nose turned out ok, not great, as it has slight parrot deformity and nostril retraction. All these years I contemplated to have it corrected but did not bother until now this year Im going to see revision specialist in Armenia.
I instantly thought of Teresa G. 😂
In closing on my ongoing rants, I think that you’re looking particular is actually very cool, just saying, be well
Dr Gary should inspire men,handsome.💙uk
Is that Ian Hecox in the thumbnail?
Plenty of women enjoy a bald man..just focus on yourself....confidence is more than half the c battle.
That video is so so cringe ... good god
Tell something for the gt20029,the new hairlos drug from the kintor.
I can't watch this channel without hearing Elian from Seinfeld saying
"YOUR BALD"
You’re so beautiful 🫠🤭
Когда же видео про Кристину Агилеру?)
Sorry gotta split and find the uninterrupted video!
Hair transplant is not that simple if anyone is thinking this way.
Aman Allah'ım inan yarsi bende olsa dedim kadın halimle😊
This kind of video reminds me of Rammstein's song Zick Zack
My dream is to have a real short forehead. I Loved the video. I wanna get a cosmetic transplant by your hand. Just to low down my forehead.
Hey Doctor, are you not going to Turkey ? :D
2:31 especially that you know what
I kinda like it!
HAHAHHAHA your videos are awesome.
I thought this was real until I started reading the comments? This was before the man talked about offing himself.
Lol I got my Turkish hair transplant today.
I do regret it slightly but want to trust the process.
Here are the red flags:
1. I saw a surgeon in Canada before who insisted I can only lower my hairline by 1.5 cm and 1600 grafts because of where my facial muscle is. I told them that and they said maximum 2cm .... tell me why I ended up with 3cm and 2000 grafts?!
2. We agreed on a minimum area to shave, they certainly shaved a lot more, almost a third of my hair and I have a big head.
3. They didn't numb me properly and had to go in and add more anesthesia mid surgery.
4. The surgeon was only a facade and the surgery was performed by 3 technicians.
5. The main technician would pick up her unsanitized phone at least 10 times while working on my open wound to answer all kinds of personal phone calls or change the music. When I asked her about she said she is using a headphone but I can hear her pick up the phone and put it down. One time even asked one of the other technicians to hand it over to her from a definitely not sterilized table where everyone put their stuff on.
6. She was too distracted with the phone and with chatting with the other guys to pay attention to what she was doing and that's how I ended up with a lower hairline than agreed.
7. Oh yeah the window of the room was open the whole time where fume and dust from the street would come in.
Anyway it's definitely insane, if I knew beforehand I probably wouldn't have done it.
If it's too good to be true it's because it is.
All I can do right now is to just hope for the best 🤷♀️. And hope the cost of the compromise is not too high.
In Canada it was going to cost me $10,000 which probably meant I could never do it. Anyway be careful out there guys. Definitely meticulously research the surgeon and clinic. Also, communicate to the coordinator all your concerns and requirements before you book your ticket.
Haha 😂 “oh, I didn’t think he was talking about THAT.” On a serious note, how long do you take the Finasteride for?
Ummm, for guys it’s going to be forever or as long as you want the hair
@@EliParker28 oh wow, that’s quite a commitment. Do women take the same med?
@@dk1828women can't take finasteride as it can really hurt their endocrine system.
@@dk1828not if you want to have babies
@@dk1828 it’s a bit hard to say, as men who take the drugs go bald due to DHT sensitivity. Most women don’t go bald due to DHT but other factors.
any good clinics in Turkey tho?
of course!
@@asvegas777 which ones tho seems like all are mills
@@oneluv11 yeah this is hard. Overall, I think Turkish clinics have had a bad reputation lately, probably worse than they deserve because they offer good prices and competition so I see lots of bias. for me it’s easier as I had a Turkish grandparent and speak the language and have family and friends there. I know there are extremely well-trained, professional clinicians and modern hospitals there. and same quality can be found at much better prices especially now because their currency is so weak, even the weakening dollar is like gold. But like you say, indeed, it is hard to distinguish from dodgy clinics that also exist (everywhere).
I haven’t had a procedure there though I did talk to a few of doctors. Almost all my friends and family have had either some kind of surgery or at least injections and stuff done. Most of them no complications, very good results. I did also see some overdone people when I visited, but I see them here too. When I’m thinking about getting something done, I will research through my family and friends, as well as look up the background of the doctors and see where they have been trained, which hospitals they work with, etc. I wish there were reliable ways of sharing this information so we could know from locals which clinics/drs are more professional and qualified in different countries like Turkey, Mexico, etc etc. like real self but more data and actually real…
You can also ask about how they do things in a video interview, which can give you a sense of mill type operations vs involved dr(s) - fyi, the free consultation appointment is likely to be with a nurse or assistant than plastic surgeon; you typically have to pay an appointment fee to talk to a surgeon and if you decide to have a procedure it goes toward that. in the U.S. where I live sometimes you can have a free consultation appointment with the actual surgeon; that’s not common there.
hope this helps a bit. If you have someone in mind I can take a look or ask around if anyone has knowledge quickly - good luck !
@@oneluv11 I answered this but my reply is deleted even as I am not promoting Anyone and was trying to be helpful .
guess I won’t be trusting this channel again!! already was suspect trying to badmouth an entire nation where things are cheaper because of the weakness of the currency not because they don’t have medical schools and drs there. I should know I am a medic and teach med school as a prof in the U.S.! I’ll still go to tr if I need any plastic surgery cos I can.
This is hysterical.. BAhhhhhhahahahh
Could you react to Matteo Lanes comedy special I think it’s called “I got a hair transplant”
$30k US vs 3-5k Turkey. That’s why people fly to Turkey.
People celebrate a “boob jobs”,as an enhancement and it is pretty much normalized, I don’t know about the other surgeries(Although I think they probably have the same status),but there’s so many other types of cosmetic surgery and people kind of readily admit and accept that(Frankly I think that whatever person wants to do with their body is their a choice and their right). Many actors and musicians, and such are usually subject to this type of thinking because what they need to do, in theory is to prolong their luxe in order to continue gaining monetarily or in status, which to me seems like a sad thing because it doesn’t seem like you’re living your “right life”, or that is to say your own “true life”. it’s a hard business, Not made easier by those in the upper echelon who hold”the whip hand”, requiring that their performers continue to maintain a certain status quo in order to garner more monetary gain for their coffers
I know someone who went to turkey to have a tummy tuck and she was in intensive care for three weeks. she almost died. most of these so-called doctors are not licensed. turkey would be the last place to have anything done. brazil or colombia they are known worldwide for their plastic surgery
Or Korea
You can find bad professionals and scammers any country. I'm from Brasil and do have excellent doctors but some people just to save money go to shady places for cheap options. So it's not about country. I've seen turists come here for back alley treatments and surgery. Or brazillians going to neighbor countries to do the same. I think Turkey can have good doctors too but the bad ones advertise cheaper prices and end up with horror stories. It's about getting done what you can't afford to pay.
Dr. why does the singer Jewel Kilcher look so different, is it just age or plastic surgery. Its almost like how Renee Zellweger looked so different but Jewel's new look is still nice but I feel the distinct original Jewel is gone.
did that guy really need a transplant though?
My husband is the handsomest man eva and is bald. Shaves head completely. HOT!
Yeah there's something very masculine about it. My guy has hair loss and he is hot af. It's unfair that men are expected to have a perfect hairline when a huge percentage of men will experience male pattern baldness at some point in their life.
My ex had his hairline lowered. It was so bad. Had to get electrolysis and had to wear a toupee for life. This is when plugs were the only way to go.
Women can accept if her man is losing his hair.
A woman wants to be center of attention in the relationship. If the man fuss over his looks and hair. She not happy. She is content if she has more hair.
A guy losing hair can be sexy to a woman . If he keeps it clean, tidy and odor free.
Dic biscuits!!!
not quite world-class... but definately FRINGE-level
I didn’t take their video serious just seemed like a big weird funny ish ad. 😅.
Sidenote Drake’s ab etching (bbl drake) and nose has been quite the topic of conversation lately considering his rap beefs. Can you do a Drake video next?
bbno$ IS EVERYWHERE I LOVE IT
If for once people just accepted themselfes it all wouldn't be needed.
good luck ur promoting his ad too.. Helping him and his scam center gets promoted as well. well done genius
What the forehead!!?
This is funny af
Im here to check on the doctor's surgery. Its not encouraging
I think more than half of these men look better with no hair ,,, i have Great hair but my head looks better with it shaved off
@mikest.gelais8555 -
I hear you - I look way better bald than with hair too! ✌🏽
This is happening when you go to a 3rd word country for cosmetic surgery
One last point that Tom has me asking questions whenever I see issues like this is, why is it that with all the technology that we have and all the “wonderful innovations “that we have introduced into our heretofore artificial environment and existences, haven’t we come up with a science to solve this problem? I think it’s not even the adults that I am concerned with, so much as some of the kids that I work with that I’ve been burned in fires or suffered maladies and have caused him to lose her hair and other things? To me that would be a wonderful thing, if in fact it is such a necessary thing in terms of A person “psyche”. Some of the most beautiful people that I have met have actually nobody here and they are just not only physically but spiritually just awesome and you can see that just like talking to them and looking at them, it is inspiring and of course it’s something that is subject to interpretation by the viewer but nonetheless a part of our life
that "joke" is not funny. kinda surprised you chuckled at it.
