Hair
Transplants for Men in New York
Manhattan, New York City
Over 50 million men suffer hair
loss in the United States. For the younger man premature
balding is an embarrassment and is perceived as a deterrent
to one's professional and social life. In older men going
bald will bring up important human issues as the loss of
vitality, virility, and even one's mortality.
The most common and most reliable
surgical treatment for hair loss is Hair Transplantation.
Nearly 300,000 procedures are performed annually. Hair transplantation
has undergone major changes since the mid to late 80's,
and nearly 300,000 procedures are performed annually. With
the advent of minigrafts and micrografts,hair transplantation can produce very natural results. The basis for hair transplantation
is that when hair is taken from donor areas where hair continues
to be abundant, such as the back of the head and is planted
in areas of hair loss, the transplanted hair will take on
the characteristics of the donor area and will continue
to grow.
The Hair Transplantation
Procedure
The procedure is usually performed under local
anesthesia. It consists of four parts. First, the hair is
removed from the donor area in strips. Then, the strips
are divided into mini and micrografts. Tiny holes are created
in the bald area to prepare it to receive the grafts. Finally,
the grafts are gently inserted into the new site.
Omnigraft
Technology
We are proud to be the first center to introduce
the use of the Omnigraft technology in the Northeast.
A new innovation, the Omnigraft machine reduces the operative
time for hair transplantation by nearly half! This causes
far less fatigue and discomfort to the patient. We will
be helping to teach other doctors the use of this ultra
advanced technology. Performing hair transplantation with
the Omnigraft is like flying to London by Concorde instead
of by regular jet.
Recovery
The patient wears a head dressing overnight. The
following day the dressing is removed, the hair is shampooed,
and the patient may return to work(if not strenuous). Stitches
in the back of the head are removed in 2 weeks. Hair begins
to grow in 3-4 months and has reached its full density in
6-9 months.
