"My hair has been one of biggest insecurities" - Sapnap comments on his hair transplant surgery
Twitch streamer Sapnap is scheduled to undergo hair transplant surgery, a procedure that is becoming increasingly common among younger patients. The streamer shared that his hair has been a source of insecurity for him and expressed gratitude to his fans for their support. He wrote:
"Super happy to have gotten a hair transplant. My hair has been one of my biggest insecurities for the longest time (balding in my early 20s rip) and I'm fortunate enough to be able to do something about it because of you guys."
He added:
"Thank you all for supporting me and excited to get home and grind content for y'all."
Hair transplant surgery typically takes anywhere between four to eight hours, depending on the number of follicles being transplanted, which usually amounts to a few thousand. However, the procedure is not just a one-time event.
Patients often need to visit regularly for check-ups, and it takes a few months for the transplanted hair to start growing out. According to the American Academy of Dermatology Association, results could take as long as 6 to 12 months.
Since it is a long process, Sapnap is expected to provide further updates regarding his new hair transplant surgery. The streamer currently has 3.2 million followers on Twitch and another 30,000 on Kick.
