Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation is one of the fastest growing cosmetic treatments available to enhance aesthetic beauty. Due to modern techniques, a new era of hair transplantation has emerged. Today's transplantation appears exceedingly natural and is almost completely undetectable.

Our Hair Transplantation Team includes seasoned surgical technicians with years of experience in performing hair transplants on both women and men. We tailor each procedure to address differences in hair characteristics and hair loss related to ethnicity.

Our approach to hair transplantation typically involves a home "hair repair" scalp regimen, prescription, and cosmetic laser treatments to stimulate hair growth. At Harris Facial Plastic Surgery, hair transplantation begins with an initial consultation. During the initial evaluation, our hair repair coordinators will discuss your hair transplantation goals and evaluate your candidacy for successful surgical hair transplantation.

Hair transplantation surgery permanently restores areas of your head that are thinning or balding with your own natural growing hair through a process called Follicular Unit Transplantation. The physician removes a small strip of hair follicles from the back of the patient's head. These hair follicles are genetically coded to always grow. A team of technicians, using a microscope, cut the hair grafts into groups of one to four hairs. These grafts are then individually placed into the areas of thinning or balding. By using this technique of transplanting single hair grafts and micro hair grafts (two to four hairs) the concentration of the surgery is placed on achieving the most realistic and natural look. Anesthesia is performed by local injections using tiny needles. During this outpatient procedure, patients remain awake for a typical surgery lasting from four to eight hours.

Many patients return to work or their daily routine one to two days after the surgery. The healing process ranges between five to seven days with the patient participating in minimal activity. Most patients see active hair growth starting three months after the procedure.
