Dan Osborne has shared a glimpse of his hair transplant after revealing how he had become paranoid about his thinning locks.
The former TOWIE star, 32, visited the British Hair Clinic in Brentwood, Essex, on Monday and candidly shared his insecurities before undergoing the procedure.
In a video posted on the clinic’s YouTube page, Dan debuted a shaved head after having to cut his hair before the operation.
He said: “I’m a bit paranoid about these angles here, my hairline isn’t terrible, but these little angles, because of football and training when I’m sweating, I can really see it.”
Dan then changed into a blue hospital gown before celebrity surgeon Dr Zabeeh drew the guide to his new hairline.

Lying down the TV star gave a thumbs up as two nurses got to work on the procedure known as an FUE hair transplant procedure.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) consists of removing individual hair follicles from the nape of the neck and inserting them into the scalp.
Dr Zabeeh said: “Dan’s FUE hair transplant procedure was a simple and successful procedure.”
He went on to explain: “Hair loss of existing (non-transplanted) hair can be exacerbated by high levels of DHT in their blood.”
“DHT is a form of testosterone responsible for classic male pattern baldness. Young men who work out regularly have slightly elevated levels meaning they are more likely to experience hair loss due to higher levels of DHT.”
Before adding: “This means that without non-surgical management of the non-transplanted hair, they may need to come back in a few years for further surgery. Dan was advised to maintain his existing hair using a combination of medication and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatment.”
Other celebrities who have visited the British Hair Clinic include TOWIE’s Kirk Norcross and Junaid Ahmed as well as Hollyoaks’ Jamie Lomas.
It comes after Dan revealed how his wife Jacqueline Jossa was “excited and anxious” about the return of her EastEnders character Lauren Branning.

He said The mirror that Jacqueline, 30, was “thrilled” and “anxious” to return to EastEnders, having last been on The Square for a short time in June.
The former TOWIE star said Jacqueline is “excited to be back, can’t wait”.
“For a long time, she was worried that Lauren was going to write in it again, but now she’s excited to be back. The time is now for her, so it’s good.’
Jacqueline was the second actress to portray Lauren Branning, the first daughter of the infamous Max Branning, and has been doing so since 2010.

Speaking at the Thorpe Park FRIGHT NIGHTS 2023 launch eventDan says he probably won’t watch her return.
“To be honest, I don’t watch much TV, if anything, it’ll be Netflix or something.” he admitted. “But, I’m sure the girls will see some.”
Dan and Jacqueline have two daughters together: Ella, 7, and Mia, 4. He also has a son Teddy, 9, from a previous relationship.
Jacqueline has entered motherhood since leaving her role as Lauren and has only made two appearances as the character since 2018.
