Boy George noted Rooney as an inspiration and many more celebrities and former footballers have also reportedly had a hair transplant in the past, including David Beckham. At Crown Clinic we have helped several celebrities with their hair transplant solutions. These include:
- Didi Hamann – The former footballer visited Dr Shahmalak at Crown Clinic to have the same FUE procedure as Rooney where individual grafts are harvested one-by-one and moved to the donor area.
- Calum Best – The son of Manchester United football legend George Best, came to the Crown Clinic for multiple hair transplants over the years.
- Jack P Shepherd – The Coronation Street star also had an FUE transplant where follicles were removed individually from the back of his scalp and then replanted in the balding areas around his temples and at the very front of his hairline.
