As featured on BBC’s Plastic Surgery Undressed, Dr Fernando answers common questions and debunks the usual myths around FUE hair transplant surgery and hair loss.

Being the lead FUE hair transplant surgeon at The Treatment Rooms London, Dr Fernando was selected by the producers of Plastic Surgery Undressed to participate in the programme, raising awareness and educating people about hair transplant surgery. As you may know, he already takes a proactive role in educating patients about hair transplant surgery not only in The Treatment Rooms London, but also as part of his role within the British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery (BAHRS).
He quotes:
“Taking a leading role as the expert in hair transplant surgery in Plastic Surgery Undressed was a huge privilege. It was a pleasure speaking to patients on a platform as big as the BBC, helping to raise national awareness about good hair loss treatment and hair transplant surgery.”
