Medical Weight Loss
We were thrilled with our weight loss, but found that whenever we showered, large swaths of hair would fall out. I tried everything to get to the bottom of this, but no doctor could figure it out. Finally I went to a hair loss specialist who suggested I try SMP for women to fill in the thinning hair. I booked three sessions for myself and couldnâ€™t be happier with the results. My long hair looks as thick and luxurious as it did before I started dieting! Now I can feel self-confident about my weight loss without being worried about my thinning hair! I also learned the importance of having a doctor approve my diets and making sure I get all my nutrients.

Thyroid
Some women have genetically determined hair loss or hair loss from a series of medical conditions or genetic inheritance. Others may experience hair loss from surgery, or injury. Still others experience hair loss from wearing very tight hairstyles that exert constant pull on the hair. Because some hair loss in women can be caused by underlying medical conditions, it is important that women with undiagnosed hair loss be evaluated by their own physicians. If clinically appropriate, the following disease processes should be considered: anemia, thyroid disease, connective tissue disease, gynecological conditions and emotional stress. It is also important to review the use of medications that can cause hair loss, such as oral contraceptives, beta-blockers, Vitamin A, thyroid drugs, coumadin and prednisone. The following laboratory tests are often useful if underlying problems are suspected: CBC, Chem Screen, ANA, T4, TSH, STS, Androstenedione, DHEA-Sulfate, Total and Free Testosterone.

Minimally Invasive Surgery
No. FUE will result in scarring and is not a minimally invasive surgery. It is important for you to understand that FUE harvesting is often misrepresented by doctors who promote FUE as a â€œscarlessâ€ surgery, but if you cut or shave your hair short, FUE harvesting of grafts can give you a â€œmoth-eatenâ€ appearance because the hairs that were harvested from your donor area do not grow back. This is a result of overly aggressive surgeons who push the number of grafts harvested. With a rise in mega session FUEs offered by some clinics, there is a new concern for donor area depletion, infection, and worse scarring than a traditional strip surgery.
Gangrene
No. People who make such comments donâ€™t understand the oxygenation process in the transplanted grafts or the anatomy of the scalpâ€™s circulatory system. The issue is one of oxygenation, not blood supply. By their very size, large grafts over 2 mm, will result in oxygen deprivation to the hair located in their center. This has been proven over and over again by observing the phenomenon called donuting (the loss of hair follicles in the center of larger grafts). In contrast, oxygen diffuses easily into grafts 1 mm or less in size. The blood supply of the scalp is among the richest in the entire body, enabling it to support the growth of large numbers of grafts, provided that they are kept very small. The Follicular Transplantation procedure performed at the New Hair Institute insures that these implants are kept to their optimum size. With this said, there can be problems if a doctor doesnâ€™ know what they are doing as reported cases of gangrene (scalp necrosis) has been reported when a doctor used the wrong anesthetics or needles that were too large to make recipient sites.

Plastic Surgeons

Scar Revision
Old FUT scars can be removed and replaced with another FUT (Strip) surgery. Basically, you would end up with one scar after having two separate surgeries. The donor scar from an FUT procedure cannot be entirely removed, but it can be improved through a scar revision. Alternatively, we offer Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) to camouflage the scar.
Dermabrasion
The latter point is very important. Any time hair is removed, the skin under it becomes more visible, so if hair removal is to be used alone, the skin under it must be relatively normal in appearance. Larger grafts universally produce skin changes such as scarring, depigmentation and cobblestoning. Hair removal alone will not suffice. In these situations, the abnormal skin can be partially removed through excision, improved through procedures such as dermabrasion, or covered with normal appearing follicular units. The latter is generally the most effective technique.
