Matthew McConaughey cleared up rumours that he received a hair transplant as a doctor lied about giving him one.

The Gentleman actor opened up about the infamous rumour about hair loss during late-1990s and its re-growth by a special ointment.

The actor said in an interview with LADbible that he has been shaving heads since many years due to hair-thinning.

The 52-year-old actor revealed that he has been using a topical ointment on his scalp.

“I was fully committed, I was fully committed to it — no Propecia, no nothing, it was just manual labour,” Matthew said. “All I can tell you is it came back. I have more hair now than I had in 1999.”

“I’m not gonna quit to see if, like, ‘Oh, do I need to do it anymore?’ I’m not taking that chance,” he added saying that he is apply the same ointment on his scalp ever since.
