I’m sure the donor impact of follicular unit extraction (FUE) is rarely a subject discussed by many of the doctors doing this procedure. When the donor area has a below average density, the impact on the donor area is very significant and it may appear to look like Swiss cheese. When the density is high, […]

I think “Master of Hair” sounds more like someone that can make hair grow by shooting lightning from his hands, but I appreciate the compliment nonetheless. As for my hair history: Shampoo: I use a series of shampoos, but I don’t focus on any brand in particular. Propecia: I don’t take it anymore, but I […]
A man came to see me last week with a problem following his hair transplant at another clinic over a year ago. The surgeon told him that 6600 grafts were transplanted (in three sessions) using the follicular unit extraction (FUE) technique, which he guaranteed has a yield of over 90%. The patient wanted to know […]
Automation of the hair transplant process has been a goal of doctors from the earliest part of their career because of the tedious manual processes used today. In particular, with the large sessions, fatigue becomes a problem and the skill sets required of the staff take years to acquire proficiency. I have been a pioneer […]
If you are referring to the shaving doctors do before performing follicular unit extraction (FUE), it is not always necessary, but the number of grafts will be less than if you allow a larger area to be clipped. I am not sure what you mean by second attempt, but if you are saying that a […]
I wanted to call your attention to yesterday’s announcement relating to follicular unit extraction (FUE). As the ‘inventors’ of the procedure, publishing the first authoritative article in the Journal of Dermatologic Surgery in 2002, I have taken a keen interest in the way this procedure is delivered throughout the world. Much of what I have […]
Maybe these doctors try to exploit our psychological weaknesses, but I doubt that anything you did as a teenager will have impacted your hair. Maybe they aren’t doctors at all — I don’t know. What I do know is that masturbation did not cause your hair to fall out and these “magical” pills will most […]
I am generally not in a position to train doctors. It takes many months to learn and master the FUE technique. Generally, I believe that a year fellowship is the right solution for the doctor who wants to learn this process. Structured learning is the right way to learn. The instruments are not available for […]
The limitation on the number of follicular units transplanted may be due to the limitations of the doctor’s staff and time. For example at New Hair Institute, we are capable of transplanting 3000-5000+ grafts in a day. This is possible because of our experienced staff, mastery of the tools we use, and techniques we have […]
The basic grounds for a successful lawsuit against a doctor must show: Damage as a result of the doctors action (inaction is much more difficult and in your case in particular it would be an uphill battle) Not meeting the standard of care (it might be successfully argued that the experience in genetic hair loss […]
There is much on this blog about FUE and I would suggest that you take a look at the FUE category to see what I wrote here in great abundance. Follicular Unit Transplantation was first introduced by our medical group, not Dr. Limmer, but with that said, Dr. Limmer made wonderful contributions on the value […]
Even if you could buy an FUE tool, do you really trust a doctor who has never done this procedure before? This is without a doubt the most difficult surgery that is in the hair transplant arena. It took me many years to master it. Few doctors worldwide can do it well. If you and […]
The Moser Clinic is a highly respected organization and the work of Karl Moser and Dr. Krugluger has been presented to the ISHRS (International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery), where I was in the audience. They are credible scientists. Their solution appears to reduce the hair loss shedding immediately after the surgery. I would be […]
I appreciate that you are very sensitive about your scar. Repairing scars is an art form, because every scar and every person is a variable and the differences between people and their scars make the repair of choice a difficult selection. I encourage you to send your photos, and even when you do, I can […]
What you’re saying is speculation based upon little fact. You are confusing things like vellus hair and miniaturized hair. The vellus hair is in each follicular unit (with or without balding present) and miniaturized hair is hair that is impacted by the genetic balding process. All hair goes into anogen, the longest part of its […]
