Hair Loss

Phone number forFor Appointments

Hair loss is a common condition that affects both men and women. It can affect just the scalp or the entire body.

Patient testimonial

For a lot of women, I think our hair is interwoven with our confidence, so I was losing my confidence along with my hair. Since my surgery, I've felt more light-hearted... I have my confidence back.

5Common Symptoms

  • A receding hair line
  • Balding in the crown region
  • Overall thinning
  • Loss of eyebrow hair
  • Traumatic hair loss from scars or skin cancer resections

Treatment

We offer permanent hair restoration treatment, with the safety of a hospital setting. Hair restoration surgery is a permanent solution that redistributes your own hair from the back of your scalp to the areas that need increased coverage. It is a very well tolerated procedure that is performed in a clinical setting, with minimal downtime required.

Medical therapies (such as Rogaine and Propecia) can be successful in preventing additional hair loss, but they cannot restore hair in areas that have already been affected. The only way to permanently restore hair is through hair restoration surgery. Medical therapies can be used as a supplement to optimize the results of a hair transplant.
