Good afternoon,

I’d love to suggest Dr Manish Mittal, leading UK hair transplant surgeon and founder of Mittal Hair Clinic, as a guest for Met The Mancunian.
Hair loss affects over 50% of men and 40% of women, and is one of the fastest-growing areas of health anxiety today, `deeply tied to stress, metabolic health, hormones, inflammation and longevity. Yet the space is dominated by myths, commercial noise and misinformation.

Dr Mittal is exceptional because he approaches hair loss not as a cosmetic issue, but as a medical, metabolic and psychological health condition.

Why he would make a brilliant guest for your audience:

• Science + lifestyle:
He can break down the real causes of hair loss—stress, sleep, inflammation, nutrient pathways, mitochondrial health—and how simple lifestyle changes can slow or reverse loss.

• Mental health + identity:
He sees first-hand how hair loss affects confidence, relationships and well-being, and speaks sensitively about male identity, female hair loss (a growing and misunderstood epidemic), and body image.

• Minimally invasive medicine:
He can explain when lifestyle is enough, when medical treatments are needed, and how modern transplants actually work (far from the outdated stereotype).

• A booming field your listeners are asking about:
The UK market is set to nearly triple by 2030, with a sharp rise in female hair restoration, beard/eyebrow transplants, and non-surgical treatments like PRP and exosomes.

• Practical, empowering advice:
Your audience will walk away with clear, actionable steps to protect and improve their hair—without gimmicks.

Dr Mittal is warm, articulate and deeply evidence-led, with more than a decade of surgical expertise and a rapidly growing public profile.

Please let me know if this is of interest.

Best,
