NeoGraft Automated FUE Hair Restoration offers a permanent, safe, effective and natural looking treatment for loss of eyebrow hair.

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 12, 2012

Shaft Medical San Diego, the areas leading aesthetic medicine practice providing the full range of advanced cosmetic procedures, now offers NeoGraft Automated FUE Hair Transplantation for eyebrow restoration.

Eyebrows provide definition and expression for your face. The effects of full or partial eyebrow hair loss can be devastating no matter what your gender. While many get by with an eyebrow pencil or tattooing, it is now possible to transplant your own hair to create natural appearing eyebrows all your own.

There are several causes for eyebrow hair loss in both men and women. Such reasons could be a congenital inability of growth, physical trauma such as burn, accidental injuries, or over-plucking of the eyebrows, medical disorders such as thyroid diseases, alopecia areata or lupus, as well as some psychological obsessive disorders causing self-inflicted obsessive plucking of eyebrows and eyelashes.

Due to the challenges of the current job market, social relationship competition, and the aging baby boomer population affected by hair loss, hair restoration procedures and treatments are one of the fastest growing segments in the aesthetic industry.

In the past, San Diego and La Jolla hair transplantation procedures were time intensive, invasive, and required specialized skills that were developed over time. NeoGraft is a revolutionary, FDA-approved automated hair transplant device. With NeoGraft hair restoration La Jolla and San Diego, hair is harvested one hair at a time from the back of the head without leaving the large linear scars associated with the strip method.

NeoGraft offers several advantages over the traditional hair transplant method. The traditional or strip method is the old technique where a section of the scalp is removed and individual hairs are dissected from the scalp strip for later implantation in thinning areas. Since there is no scar with NeoGraft, there is no need for painful stitches and healing time is significantly reduced. And, with NeoGraft there is no numbness of the hair donor area or the very tight feeling that can be caused by an incision. Results are generally much more natural appearing with NeoGraft due to the precision of the harvesting and implantation process.

After planning the appropriate pattern of hair restoration for each patient, a small area of hair in the back of the head is cut short. Then, using the NeoGraft hand piece, about 1 mm in diameter, individual naturally occurring follicular (hair) units, each containing from 1-5 hairs, are extracted from the scalp. By using gentle air pressure to slide out each follicular hair unit, there is no twisting, pulling or cutting, thus avoiding any damage. These hairs are then implanted into the eyebrows, maintaining their viability and increasing the success of the grafting process.

Now, with the NeoGraft method of "follicular unit extraction", or FUE, hair follicles are gently lifted out of the scalp with a small instrument and light suction, and are then placed into the bald or thinning areas with reverse air pressure. The eyebrow restoration procedure is carefully designed to meet your desired objectives, carefully considering density, hair angle and hair direction.

NeoGraft utilizes a newer transplant system called follicular unit extraction, or FUE, in which hair follicles are removed individually from the back of the head. Under this minimally invasive method there is little danger of scarring, bleeding, or nerve damage.

FUE performed by hand has been too time-consuming and expensive for widespread use. The NeoGraft system offers technological advances that can reduce the time and cost of transplants, making FUE more practical for both men and women of all ages.

Expert Beverly Hills Hair Restoration offers 6 Tips to Achieve Healthy Hair and Prevent Hair Loss that Won't Break the Bank

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 24, 2013

But, there are some hair care and hair loss solutions that don't involve reaching into your purse for your credit card. Expert Dr. John Kahen M.D., medical director of Beverly Hills Hair Restoration, offers these 6 tips to achieve and maintain healthy hair.

"You don't always have to buy every latest and greatest hair product to achieve and maintain healthy hair. Simple changes in lifestyle and every day hair care regimens can curb dry, damaged, or thinning hair," said the medical director of Beverly Hills Hair Restoration.

Here are the hair transplant clinic's six tips to achieve healthy hair and prevent hair loss:

1. Look to your diet

Look at your diet to determine if you are eating a well-balanced diet and if you are lacking in any vitamins or nutrients. Nutritional deficiencies take a toll on the body physically, and not getting enough vitamins and nutrients can affect the health of your skin and hair. Vitamins like biotin, Vitamin E and even pre-natal vitamins can assist with keeping hair healthy.

2. Wash hair regularly to prevent hair loss

Wash your hair regularly to prevent build-up and eliminate the potential presence of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) from forming in the hair follicles if you are already noticing hair loss. The word "regularly" varies for everyone - but if you tend to use styling products, it's best to wash everyday or every other day to avoid clogging the pores in the scalp and causing build-up.

3. Avoid alcohol-based hair products

Try to eliminate or use very little of alcohol-based hair products. Hair products containing alcohol evaporate very quickly, but take with it the natural oil production in the hair that prevents dryness. Look for "alcohol" in the ingredients that can also be masked as "alcohol denatured", "methanol" and "isopropyl".

4. Limit the use of heat styling

Try to put down the blow dryer and curling iron occasionally to avoid breakage and dryness since excessive heat can weaken the follicles. Get a blow dryer with different heat settings and use a diffuser to target the air flow.

5. Avoid hairstyles that pull on the hair

Avoid hairstyles that pull the hair back tightly, such as a too-tight ponytail or hair extensions. Constant strain on the hair can cause breakage and even hair loss if worn often enough.

6. Take a day off

Pick one day each week to give your hair a break, from styling, heat - all of the damaging habits that you do to your hair everyday. Take a Sunday and swear off the blow-dryer, curling iron and hair extensions to give your hair a rest.

Haarklinikkens Introduces the Density Improvement Program for Severe Hair Loss, Innovative Hair Restoration Solutions Now Available in Tampa, FL

(PRWEB) February 12, 2013

Tampa, Florida: The common male pattern baldness or alopecia accounts for over 90% of hair loss in men. By the time they reach 40, two out of three Americans will experience a significant degree of hair loss, and by the age of 50 almost 80% of men will have appreciable thinning hair.

Recognizing the devastating effects of male pattern baldness in men of all ages, leading Danish hair restoration clinic Haarklinikken brings forth an innovative hair loss treatment solution, new in the United States, already highly successful for over 40,000 clients from all over Europe. The patented technology Haarklinikken offers combines their renowned Density Improvement Program with the highly effective Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplantation procedure, resulting in a personalized hair restoration regimen for patients searching for permanent hair loss solutions.

Most men first start seeing their hair thinning in their late twenties, but it generally takes them several years until they find the confidence to seek professional help, says representative of Haarklinikken. Our goal is to put an end to the agony most men are going through and provide them with the care, state-of-the-art technology and innovative treatment solutions they deserve.

As equipment and technology have greatly evolved in recent years, the FUE transplantation method has become patients preferred alternative to painful and costly hair restoration treatments. What has fueled interest in this technique is not only its minimally invasive nature, but the introduction of blunt dissection for grafting that allows for the procedure to be carried out with minimum loss of hair follicles. Moreover, the tiny scars produced in the donor area are often difficult to detect, even upon close examination, relieving concerns of visible scarring.

Haarklinikken Hair Restoration has proven a very high level of commitment to the most rigorous national standards in patient care, record keeping, patient and staff security, quality improvement, as well as in their desire to constantly develop new ways to provide maximum quality and optimum performance to their patients. Opening a new location for hair transplant in Tampa, Florida is an important step in the constant growth and success of their superior healthcare service.

Virginia Beach Hair Restoration Specialist Unveils New Website

Virginia Beach, VA (PRWEB) February 27, 2013

Renowned facial plastic surgeon and hair restoration specialist Dr. Kyle S. Choe of the Choe Center for Facial Plastic Surgery in Virginia Beach, Virginia, is pleased to announce his new website dedicated to hair restoration.

Dr. Choes new website, http://www.virginiahairtransplantsurgery.com, is an excellent resource for those with hair loss who are considering hair restoration. Visitors will find detailed information about male and female hair loss, candidates for hair restoration, and hair restoration techniques and recovery. There is also an extensive FAQ section and Q&A blog. For individuals who are bothered by hair loss and considering hair transplant surgery, Dr. Choes site is a must-see.

While Dr. Choe performs a wide variety of plastic surgery procedures of the face and neck, he has a particular interest in hair restoration. Hair restoration can effectively reverse hair loss by restoring a natural hairline and filling in a balding crown or other patches of hair loss. Follicular unit grafting (FUG), often referred to as the strip method, is the most common method of hair restoration today. With this technique, a strip of hair-bearing scalp is excised from the back of the head and dissected into tiny grafts which are transplanted to bald and thinning areas. While this is an excellent technique, Dr. Choe often prefers the newer, more advanced method known as the follicular unit extraction method (FUE). With FUE, a high pressure pneumatic system is used to remove individual hair follicles from the back and sides of the scalp, thus avoiding the strip scar associated with FUG. Both are quick, minimally-invasive procedures performed under local anesthesia with little to no pain and minimal downtime.

Dr. Kyle S. Choe is a double board certified surgeon specializing in cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery of the face and neck. He is board certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. He is also certified by the International Society of Hair Restoration. Dr. Choe obtained his undergraduate degree from Occidental College and his medical degree from the University of Rochester School of Medicine Dentistry. Each year, he participates in a yearly medical mission to areas in Central and South America, Asia and Europe to treat impoverished adults and children with birth defects and other deformities requiring reconstruction. Dr. Choe is excited to now offer patients two comprehensive websites. Between his hair restoration site and his standard site, http://www.choecenter.com, he hosts monthly events so potential patients can ask questions in an honest and open forum.

The Choe Center for Facial plastic Surgery is an AAAHC-accredited office-based surgery center offering state-of-the-art cosmetic and reconstructive surgical care in a private, safe, comfortable setting. They offer a full array of surgical and non-surgical procedures including brow lift, facelift, blepharoplasty, cheek augmentation, chin augmentation, neck lift, lip augmentation, ear surgery, rhinoplasty, skin cancer reconstruction, Ulthera, Botox and injectable fillers, prescription skin care, chemical peels and more.

DrSkinSpa.com Announces the Addition of Z Bigatti Restoration Skincare

Anaheim, California (PRWEB) March 20, 2013

The physician owned and operated team at DrSkinSpa.com adds the Z Bigatti Restoration line to its extensive skincare offerings. Sharing over 30 years combined experience, the professional team at DrSkinSpa.com evaluates and chooses skincare products based on scientific data and effectiveness. Offering over 100 brand names hosting over 4,000 products, DrSkinSpa.com adds Z Bigatti skin care as the face cream that delivers on all of its promises.

As a young boy growing up in Paris with parents who owned and operated department stores, the Z Bigatti Re Storation founder watched his mother try many skincare products but she never seemed satisfied. Often she would find a product that addressed one area such as wrinkles or fine lines but she could not find an all-inclusive skincare product to improve multiple issues such as skin brightening, age spots, dry skin, or wrinkles, as Z Bigatti Restoration offers today. Z Bigatti defines Luxury with a purpose with this extraordinary skincare line.

Determined to please his mother and compliment the family business, the boy grew up to travel the world and study with chemists and scientists to create the Z Bigatti skin care line. His goal was to create a Z Bigatti Restoration skincare cream which would address the three main issues of the skin: repairing, protecting, and nourishing. Using scientifically confirmed research and the worlds finest, clinically proven ingredients, the original all-in-one Z Bigatti Re Storation Skin Treatment Facial Cream was born and many other Z Bigatti skin care products to address other areas of the body soon followed.

Z Bigatti skin care was developed specifically to address the skins three layers of cells. The top layer is comprised of dead or dry skin. The second layer is made up of biologically alive or active skin cells which are often damaged by UV rays, environmental pollutants, or the natural aging process. The third layer is a fresh, healthy, alive layer of skin cells that are undamaged and untouched. Z Bigatti Restoration was developed specifically to address the different needs and perform different biological work for each layer of cells.

To maintain product integrity and offer the most powerful, active ingredients, Z Bigatti skin care utilizes a cold-extraction process and integrates olignutrients/nano technology. This allows for active ingredients to penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin to produce visible, real changes such as skin-plumping and firmness. Many skincare formulas use ingredients which are heated and therefore, dead. Z Bigatti Re Storation uses the cold-extraction process to ensure the most potent ingredients available for effective anti-aging results.

Once Hollywoods biggest skincare secret, now Z Bigatti skin care is easily available, stated Dr. Farid Mostamand, founder and owner of DrSkinSpa.com. Z Bigatti Re storation ingredients are natural and beneficial. Z Bigatti skin care ingredients include alpha hydroxys, hyaluric acid, vitamins, enzymes, grape seed, shea butter, avocado and many other highly-effective, botanical ingredients that create a real luxury skincare product.

Z Bigatti skin care products reduce puffy eyes, fine lines, expression lines, and deep wrinkles while creating more youthful, plumper skin with a soft, smooth tone. Comprehensive skincare treatment is available with Z Bigatti Re Storation Skin Treatment, Z Bigatti Restoration Champagne Gel Cleanser, Z Bigatti Restoration Silk Toner, and Z Bigatti Re Storation Enlighten Skin and other Z Bigatti skin care products.

Northwest Hair Restoration First in Pacific Northwest to Offer Stem Cell Therapy Injection for Hair Restoration

Tacoma, WA (PRWEB) April 04, 2013

Dr. Robert Niedbalski, a hair transplant surgeon and medical director at Northwest Hair Restoration in Tacoma, WA, is the sole practice in the Pacific Northwest to offer the much talked about Stem Cell Therapy Injection using ACell + PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to stimulate hair regeneration. Dr. Niedbalski also contributed valuable research to this breakthrough in the field of hair restoration. The injection uses ACell, an FDA approved wound healing powder that activates stem cells in scalp tissue, suspended in the patients own PRP to significantly improve the quality of hair re-growth in patients with early to moderate hair loss. Within six months, patients see remarkable hair growth where previously the hairs were wispy and fine due to the follicles under producing.

ACell + PRPs effectiveness at treating hair loss was first discovered by Dr. Gary Hitzig. In collaboration with Dr. Hitzig, Dr. Niedbalski took the research one step further and studied the hair regeneration injections effectiveness at regenerating eyebrows, which also proved successful.

For patients in the early to moderate stages of hair loss, the hair growth results after an ACell + PRP injection are significant and last for three to five years. A series of follow-up booster injections are a great solution for maintenance and prevention. For women, who are often not good candidates for hair transplantation, stem cell therapy with ACell is an exciting new option to help thicken hair for easier styling, decreasing scalp visibility, and stabilizing shedding.

In the history of hair restoration, this is the very first time a longer-lasting, non-surgical solution has been available to men and women who are at the onset of hair loss, said Dr. Niedbalski. "In our follow up with patients, we consistently hear and see how effectively the stem cell therapy injection is working and visibly improving hair density. Rogaine or Propecia were previously the only treatments for patients in the early to moderate stages of hair loss, but results were very unreliable. ACell + PRP offers a more effective solution with consistent results.

Hair Restoration Specialists in Atlanta, Georgia Helps the Development of Light Energy Technology and Its Applications in Health Care

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 28, 2013

Hair Restoration Specialists has been and continues to be proud member of the American Society for Laser Medicine & Surgery, Inc. (ASLMS). Last year, ASLMS awarded $ 140,000 to scientists and medical researchers who are working on important laser research projects. An astonishing $ 1.2 million in research grants have been awarded to date. Member contributions, combined with contributions from industry, subsidize the grants awarded by the Research Committee.

Hair Restoration Specialists values our membership with ASLMS, as we find this to be the best avenue for gaining scientific information on the use of lasers. ASLMS is one of the few organizations where all aspects of laser medicine are addressed, including laser safety, physics, tissue interactions, and complication management. In addition to their research fund, they have established a new Advancement of Laser Medicine Endowment Fund that will ensure their efforts to fund research will continue to make a significant difference in improving patient care and their commitment to furthering sustainable, unbiased research.

The new endowment fund honors Dr. Leon Goldman, a Founder of ASLMS. He was an editor, an author and a research extraordinaire. He was an educator whose academic progeny spans many fields and projects on an international scope. Much of the scientific foundation for medical research laser work is attributable to Dr. Goldman. He indeed will always be known as the Father of Laser Medicine.

Hair Restoration Specialists is proud to be a Research Fund Contributor at the Futurist contribution level. We truly believe in supporting the efforts of the ASLMS research program so that it may continue to offer quality research grants. We encourage all nursing/allied health professionals who are involved with lasers in any way to utilize the benefits of belonging to ASLMS.

Hair Restoration Specialists remains at the forefront of the medical community placing as much emphasis on the artistry of hair transplantation as on the science of the procedure. Hair Restoration Specialists is located right outside I-285 at 6065 Roswell Road, Suite 300, Atlanta, Georgia 30328, which is less than half of a mile off the interstate. Hair Restoration Specialists also offers online and phone consultations throughout the United States.
