Surgical Treatment of Advanced Stage Male Pattern Hair Loss

The average density is 100 fu./cm squared. An individual with advanced stage hair loss, Norwood 6 or 7, usually has on average between 230- 300 cm square of bald scalp.

Hair Transplants Have Come a Long Way
Currently 5/5
Dr Arocha was recently interviewed by the Houston Chronicle. For men valiantly engaged in the battle of the bald, a two-pronged attack is usually what the doctor will order.

Second, either relocating hair from the back of your head onto the top, or investing in a modern-day hairpiece. Click here to read Dr. Arocha's Hair Transplant full interview.

Lateral Slits
Currently 5/5
Lateral or coronal slits allow the precise control of the exit angle between the hair and the scalp skin. Sagital or parallel slits permit the hair to move up and down in the groove created by the blade, hence the exit angle between the hair and the skin can vary between 10 and 15 degrees. The use of lateral slits are of great advantage in hair transplantation involving areas that demand more precise and acute angles. These areas include the eyebrows, temporal peaks, pubic and facial hair . The...

Tricophytic Closure
Currently 0/5
State of the art donor closure, employing tricophytic closure delivers nearly invisible donor scars.

The addition of a third step employs the beveling of the wound’s lower edge to abut the superficial epidermis and hair, so as to cause the hair to grow through the scar. This...

Area to be harvested is demarcated in green. Even in a patient with very short hair strip harvest is not very noticeable.

In fact, every attempt should be made to always remove the old scar whenever possible. Optimal results from hair restoration surgery employ tricophytic closure, closing...

Beware: Know your Hair Restoration Surgeon

The American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS) certification is the gold standard for indicating that your surgeon has completed extensive training and has much experience treating patients with hair loss. There are two...
