How Joakim Lundell's procedure was performed
Joakim Lundell's hair transplant involved approximately 2,000 follicles, divided into:

- 1,200 hair follicles at the back - to seal and strengthen hair growth in the crown area
Nervousness and Preparation
Before the surgery, Joakim shared his nervousness in the podcast "Jocke & Jonna - The truth must be told". He was particularly worried about:
- Aftercare - how to deal with the first few days after the procedure

- The result - when and how the result would be visible
