ForumHairTransplant.com is an independent patient community about hair loss and hair transplants. This page explains who writes our guides, what they are based on, and how to report a mistake.
Who we are
- We are not affiliated with any clinic, surgeon or product company.
- We do not accept payment for rankings, reviews or recommendations.
- Contact: [email protected]
How our guides are written
- Guides are published under the name ForumHairTransplant Editorial Team.
- They are prepared with AI assistance and edited by the site team. Each guide says so in its byline.
- No doctor reviews our guides. We do not list a medical reviewer because there is none. Our guides are general information, not medical advice. Talk to a qualified doctor about your own situation.
What we base guides on
- Each guide ends with a Sources list and the date the sources were last checked.
- We prefer health services (such as the NHS), university hospitals, professional bodies (such as the ISHRS, the AAD and the ASPS), medical reference sites and peer-reviewed papers.
- We do not use clinic marketing pages as medical evidence. Some professional bodies represent surgeons who do the procedure, so we note this where it matters.
- When we could not find an authoritative source for a point, the guide says so instead of presenting it as fact.
- Sources and clinic practices differ on timing (for example the first wash or restarting medicines). Your own surgeon’s written instructions always come first.
Patient posts, results and clinic content
- Posts by members and clinics reflect their authors’ own views and results. We do not verify them.
- Case summaries on results threads only restate what the original post says.
- A link to a clinic or product is not an endorsement.
Corrections and updates
- If you find an error, an outdated source or a missing caveat, email us or reply in the topic.
- When we change a guide because of new evidence, we update its Sources checked date.
