LONG-TERM SOLUTION
You Don’t Have to Accept Hair Loss. Hair Transplants Actually Work.
Have you noticed most women with hair loss still have hair on the back and sides of the scalp?
Women typically keep this hair because it is not sensitive to DHT.
Hair transplants take advantage of this permanent hair, moving it to where you need it most.
Real Patients. Real Results.
*All results at 6 months after commencement of combination medical therapy.
Who Benefits From a Hair Transplant?
Women with mild to moderate hair loss who are not completely bald. We need donor hair for transplantation.
Who Doesn’t Benefit?
Women that have severe hair loss and fine hair. If you don’t have donor hair to transplant, you won’t be a good candidate.
Patients with active scarring hair loss. Any active disease must be controlled medically before a hair transplant.
Offering both No Shave FUE and FUSE Hair Transplants
There are two ways to remove grafts from the back of the head.
FUSE / FUT
Follicular Unit Strip Excision
Hair is removed through a long strip excision at the back of the scalp. This is ideal for women because the scar is easily hidden by surrounding hair. We can also get more grafts and thicker grafts than with FUE. While sometimes villainized by inexperienced clinics as an “older technique” with a line scar, in women with long hair it is completely hidden.
MINIMAL SHAVE FUE
Follicular Unit Strip Excision
Hair is removed from the back of the scalp with a small ~1mm motorized punch tool. To access this area we shave a small easily covered portion of the scalp. This is ideal for women with minimal hair loss who do not want a strip excision. While sometimes marketed as “scar-less,” there are scars, but they are so small they are not easily noticed. Bigger procedures require shaving the back of the head. Smaller procedures don’t require a full shave and can be hidden by surrounding hair.
DAY OF SURGERY
What to Expect
Design Your Hairline
Together with Dr. Hawkins, we will design your hair line and ensure your comfort with medication for relaxation.
Extract the Grafts
Once you are comfortable, we will numb the back of the scalp and extract grafts. This takes anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the technique.
Place the Grafts
Following a catered lunch break around noon, the afternoon involves placing the grafts, during which you can unwind and watch TV.
