MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif., Oct. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Dr. U Hair and Skin Clinic announces the launch of The Baldcast, created and hosted by Dr. Sanusi Umar, the on camera lead of The Bumpinator. The new companion podcast and video series takes audiences beyond the treatment room and into real life after healing.
The Baldcast trailer premieres today on Dr. Sanusi Umar’s YouTube channel. Episode one debuts Monday, October 20 on YouTube, with audio versions available on all major podcast platforms. Each 15 to 25 minute episode features candid conversations with patients and guests about recovery, reinvention, and the courage to begin again.
Most medical shows end at the reveal, leaving viewers to wonder what happens next. The Baldcast revisits patients months and years later to find out. Did the condition stay away? Did the results last? How did treatment change their confidence or relationships? The series looks beyond the immediate outcome to show how restored health reshapes entire lives.
The show features cases such as keloids, acne keloidalis nuchae, folliculitis decalvans, dissecting cellulitis, scarring alopecias, failed hair surgeries, and severe hair loss. These affect people of every background, including African American, Hispanic, and white communities. The Baldcast reflects this broad reality, showing that healing and hope belong to everyone.
Filmed primarily at Dr. U Hair and Skin Clinic in Manhattan Beach, California, the series captures the quiet struggle of living with visible conditions for years. Each episode honors the patient as the hero — the person who endured, adapted, and never stopped searching for a way forward.
“Many of our guests lived with pain, embarrassment, and isolation,” said Dr. Umar, host and creator. “Their courage to seek answers and reclaim life is what this series celebrates. Healing is not only about medicine but about finding strength and returning fully to living.”
