Restoring Confidence: Hair Transplant Surgery in New York City

Losing hair can significantly impact one's appearance, self-confidence, and self-esteem. Both men and women at various stages of adult life can experience hair loss due to hereditary, hormonal, or other causes. Fortunately, hair transplant surgery offers a solution to regain a full head of hair and restore one's crowning feature.

Advanced Hair Transplant Techniques

Over the years, hair transplant techniques have evolved, with advanced surgical methods now providing natural, full heads of hair. Dr. Maurice Khosh, a dual board-certified facial plastic surgeon, offers state-of-the-art surgical hair transplant options in New York City. Utilizing the latest innovations, Dr. Khosh can replace lost hair without the unsightly scars or stitches that were once common in hair transplant procedures.

FUT vs. FUE Transplant Techniques

Hair transplant surgery is generally performed using one of two methods: Follicular Unit Transfer (FUT) or Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). The primary difference between these techniques lies in the incisions. FUE involves small, circular incisions dispersed throughout the donor area of the scalp, making them more discreet. In contrast, FUT uses a single, long incision in the middle of the donor area or back of the scalp.

The methods also differ in how hair is harvested. FUT involves removing a group of 1-4 follicular units from a single, thin strip of the donor area, which is then dissected and prepared for implantation. This method allows for high-quality grafts and requires less donor area compared to large FUE transplants.

On the other hand, FUE involves the direct extraction of each follicular unit from the back and sides of the scalp, relying on specific instruments and automated technology. Many patients prefer FUE for its efficiency, faster results, and less detectable scars.

Choosing the Right Technique for You

In most cases, Dr. Khosh performs the favored FUE technique to avoid unsightly linear scarring from strip methods. FUE is ideal for patients who wish to wear their hair very short or prefer minimal downtime after the procedure. However, Dr. Khosh is highly skilled in both FUE and FUT techniques and will help each patient understand the advantages and disadvantages of each based on their specific hair loss situation and treatment goals. Regardless of the chosen method, Dr. Khosh's practice ensures natural and long-lasting results in hair restoration.
