John Cena is marking a major personal milestone two years after undergoing a hair transplant, sharing renewed confidence and public gratitude for the physician who guided him through the process.
The WWE icon and Hollywood star took to social media this week to praise Dr. Ken Anderson for helping transform his hair health, calling the experience “life-changing.” Cena first revealed in 2024 that he had undergone the procedure after fans frequently commented on his thinning hair.
“24 months ago I met @KenAndersonMD,” Cena wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter). “He stressed the importance of scalp and hair health and how consistent treatment and work on my end would help my cause. 14 months post surgery I couldn’t be happier! Thank you Doc for today’s PRP and exosome treatment. I’m keeping up my ‘daily routine’ and like you said… it WORKS!”
Cena previously told PEOPLE that fan reactions during WWE events played a role in his decision to seek treatment. He also expressed regret that he had not acted sooner due to the stigma surrounding hair loss.
“I hate the fact that if there wasn’t so much shame around it, I’d have gotten it done 10 years ago,” Cena said at the time. “I thought I was alone, but seven or eight out of 10 [men] suffer from thinning or baldness. They don’t do anything except move your hair, one by one, from one area to another. If somebody’s going to sweat me for that, I don’t think there’s any shame in that.”
The actor and wrestler’s update comes shortly after he closed a major chapter of his wrestling career. Cena officially ended his WWE in-ring run last month at Saturday Night’s Main Event, where he suffered a loss to GUNTHER.
Now embracing both a new look and a new phase of life, Cena’s candid reflections have resonated with fans, helping normalize conversations around hair restoration and self-care.
