He added that he had been unable to wash his hair for a week after the procedure in case the new tufts of hair were washed away.
The procedure, the cost of which starts at £3,000, involves removing hair follicles from the back of the head and inserting them into the front of the scalp.
Hair transplants have become increasingly popular as a treatment for pattern baldness among men and women in recent years.
Europeans saw a 234 per cent increase in interest in hair transplants between 2008 and 2019, according to statistics from the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS).
