Hair Transplants
In follicular unit hair transplantation, donor hair is harvested by excising a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area—an area at the back of the head that is resistant to hair loss. Each follicular unit in the donor strip contains one to four hairs. Follicular unit transplantation is extremely efficient because several thousand hair grafts can be obtained from one donor strip. While in principle follicular unit hair transplantation is very simple, its implementation requires meticulous micro-surgical skills, attention to detail, and artistry.

Hair in the scalp grows in small family groupings know as follicular units, which contain between one and five hairs each. It is important that the integrity of these groupings remain undisturbed during the dissection process.

The production of follicular unit grafts from the donor scalp requires a two-stage process of firstly slivering the ellipse into very fine scalp sections and then dissection of the follicular units from these slivers.

Both stages of this process are accomplished by the use of the stereoscopic dissecting microscope. The use of these technically advanced microscopes has reduced transection of hair follicles to the extent that we now have a 30% increase in yield from our donor strip. The reason for this is that we are now able to directly visualize the scalp we are dissecting under high magnification, rather than simply cutting blindly through the donor strip as seen in older techniques

Trust me Hair loss can be beaten. I was a victim of hair loss from the age of 22. Always looking in the mirror to make sure that my bold spots where covered and not visible. Don’t get me wronghairlospatient1.jpg there is nothing wrong with being bold, I know, I was bold for almost a decade before my transplant, and on some people it even looks better. I on the other hand liked having hair and was not one of those lucky individuals, so I researched for 10 years from the age of 23 to 35. Finally, I had my 1st transplant at the age of 35 and believe it or not I was re-born, literally. I have had a total of 2 surgeries and now at close to 40 years old, I look and feel much better compared to when I was 30. I can tell you 1st hand that it is absolutely a life changing event. You will never regret it and it is absolutely worth every penny. In the very near future as you check my blog, I will post pictures, answer questions and provide my own life experience, insight and knowledge. I will share with you my hair transplant surgery experience form A to Z. I have had consultations with most of the well know doctors here in L.A and will recommend my own preferences and experiences in dealing with these doctors. I will try to answer all you questions and help you reverse your hair loss.

I have been battling hairl oss for the past decade and at the age of 35 was completely reborn with a hair transplant surgery performed by a world famous physician. I was so ecstatic with the results I did a second procedure, which I did not need. Find out more go to http://www.AskTheHairLossExpert.com
