How did Elon Musk grow his hair back?

He most likely just had a hair transplant.

Public perception, so damaged by bad operations from the 70s, still hasn’t quite caught up to the state of the art in the modern era. Hair transplants are certainly not perfect and they can still fail. But generally speaking good results are possible if you’re willing to pay.

And you will have to pay a lot. Many transplant surgeons in the US charge up to $7.50 per graft, and to get results like Musk’s you might need 5,000+ grafts. That’s nearly a $40k operation.

So price alone is a big reason why you don’t see many men getting hair transplants.

The second non-monetary cost of a transplant is the recovery period. If you do a FUE operation, you’ll have to shave your head and won’t really be publicly presentable for a month at least. Not a lot of folks can get enough time off work in order to let the recovery process run its course. This goes for celebrities and high-profile actors as well.
