  1. CURRENT PRACTICES AND CONTROVERSIES IN HAIR RESTORATION IN CHICAGO

  2. Treatments Surgical Hair Restoration The concepts of hair transplantation utilize permanent, genetically programmed hair from the back or sides of the head, (donor region), and meticulously redistributes them into receptor sites utilizing only ultra refined follicular units or extraction units. Follicular units are groups of hair follicles, which range from one to four follicles per graft. At North Shore Hair Transplant Specialists we believe that the transplantation of hair is more than surgery. It is an art. We use a feathering technique by placing the fine, single hair grafts at the front of the hairline, and then placing two or three hair grafts towards the back to add density and fullness.

  3. The cost of the hair transplant procedure varies depending on how many grafts are needed, if it is corrective surgery and if FUT or FUE is performed.  We offer a complimentary consultation, during which we will evaluate the area and suggest the number of recommended grafts. Patients receive the best value for excellent quality and outstanding services. The results are astonishing and well worth the cost.

  5. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) FUE: ( Follicular Unit Extraction) A process of transferring follicles from donor to recipient area by decreasing density of the donor region. With FUE, the formation of multiple scars are spread out rather than forming a linear scar.  FUE is advantageous in younger patients- usually with hair loss classes of 2 or 3 and possibly early hair loss 4.  FUE is another tool to add density for patients who have had previous FUT procedures and lack laxity in the donor region.  Scar repair in the donor area can be achieved with FUE.  FUE extraction sites heal quicker in the donor region, (the recipient sites heal the the same as FUT). . 

  6. The disadvantages of FUE are that the grafts are thinner and have less support tissue. The grafts are more susceptible to damage and have a higher transection rate. There are healing scars, or spots, that could show due to decreased density in the donor region. For the FUE procedure the hair has to be shaved in the donor area, which could take a few months to grow back.  FUE is a variant of the "plug" procedure. It is more labor intensive, time consuming and has a higher cost. FUE for the most part should not be used with women. Women have different hair thinning characteristics, classification and hair loss physiology.

  7. Artas Robotic Hair 1. senses & removes without regard to wavy or curly hair. 2. works best with thin straight brown hair. 3. not currently approved for females. 4. can have inflated cost. 5. can be used as a marketing tool for an inexperienced surgeon.

  8. Hand Held Manual & Motorized 1. Cherry picks the size of the grafts used for follicular units. 2. Much better with curly wavy hair. 3. Lower transection rate. 4. Provides surgeon with tactile feed back in regards to resistance in tissue.

  9. Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) FUT: (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is a process of extraction of a section of mid donor region hairs. FUT does not diffusely decrease the donor region. The scar is in a linear pattern with various types of closures performed. Ultra refined follicular units are dissected microscopically with very minimal transection rates. FUT has true follicular grouping with intact support and hair maintenance structures. By removing a section of donor hair the density of the rest of the donor hair is left intact. FUT is utilizing permanent donor hair in even large sessions and subsequent sessions.

  10. Disadvantages of FUT: The donor region does take longer to heal. Patients that choose this technique should leave their hair 1/2 inch or slightly longer since everyone does heal differently. There will be a linear scar.
