At the Foundation for Hair Restoration Hair in Southern California, you can receive the best and most up-to-date hair transplant procedure available today.  The current procedure is a result of years of experimentation and modification.  It begins with a hair graft, which is a small piece of scalp containing hair follicles that is removed from the head.  Grafts differ in size; larger strip grafts may 30-40 hairs while the smallest micro-grafts contain only 1-2 hairs.  The micro-grafts are the most current hair transplant technique; this is called Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).  The success rate of FUE is phenomenal.   Once the grafts, large or small, are excised carefully with a scalpel, they are given to the surgical assistants who separate out the follicles from the skin with the use of a microscope. Larger grafts are less time consuming than the micro-grafts, and therefore less costly. The advantage of the micro-grafts is that because there is no incision, there will be no scar. The healing time is shorter with the micro-grafts as well. 

Facial Hair Transplants in California

Hair loss is universal; men, women, all races, and all nationalities suffer from its indignities. Not only head hair, but body hair and facial hair loss can cause distress. Facial hair transplants resolve facial hair loss problems in both women and men.  Previous plastic surgery of the face may cause hair loss. Trauma that results in scarring and subsequent lack of hair growth, burns, medications and other issues may cause a loss of facial hair. A thicker beard may be seen as providing a more masculine look or a mustache may be more socially desirable.  The facial hair transplant procedure uses scalp hair for the donor grafts.

California Body Hair Transplants

No longer do men have to suffer the indignities of lack of hair on their chest.  A body hair transplant will create abundant growth on the chest, and even the abdomen if desired. This grafting of hair to the upper chest or along the abdomen line provides a more masculine appearance so that self conscious men no longer have to worry about their appearance. 

Other Hair Transplant Surgery Procedures

The transplantation of eyelashes and eyebrows, using the scalp as donor hair, has resulted in significant changes in appearance.  Eyelashes, which may be meager and thin, can now look naturally thick, long and luxurious.   Micro-grafts are inserted into the upper eyelid to result in a healthy growth of new lashes. Eyebrows may be light, overly plucked, lack hair due to scarring, or lack a full arch. The eyebrow transplant procedure is similar to the hair transplant procedure, with as many as 350 micro-grafts implanted in each eyebrow.   The surgeons at the Foundation for Hair Restoration in Southern California have the manual dexterity to place each hair follicle in the brow at the appropriate angle and correct direction to result in a natural looking eyebrow. As a result of using scalp hair as the donor site, both the eyebrows and eyelashes continue to grow and require a quick trim every month.
