After watching Dr. Bessam Farjo and his wife Dr. Nilofer Farjo and their staff in action over two days and two impressive ultra refined surgeries during May of 2007, I was very pleased to see that they have successfully incorporated all of the most important recent advances in hair restoration into their clinic and procedure.

All of their grafts are carefully trimmed under microscopes, with Dr. Nilofer Farjo closely supervising the medical technicians, while cutting and placing grafts herself. Nilofer is very hands on and does the critical slivering (sectioning of the donor strip into thin "slivers" that are then divided by the technicians into individual follicular unit grafts). She also does most of the primary training and supervising of the medical technicians using the video screen.

Both Bessam and Nilofer also create all the carefully oriented and minimally invasive graft incisions using custom cut blades that are as small as 0.7mm. Their use of small incisions enables their patients to achieve greater density in a single session, while experiencing quicker healing.

They take a team approach to the surgery with all hands on deck and working harmoniously together. Given the size and skill of the team the clinic can perform large sessions in excess of 3,000 grafts when appropriate for the patient. They typically limit themselves to one patient a day to achieve an optimal level of care.


Their donor strip removal and trichophytic closure are also very state of the art with care taken to minimize any follicle transaction or scarring in the donor area. Drs. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo were involved in the early studies/evaluations of the trichophytic closure technique.

To minimize any potential scarring/stretching in the donor area they prefer to remove long but narrow donor strips.

I was particularly impressed by the collaboration of the husband and wife team of Dr. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo. For the patient of the day, it's like getting two very experienced hair transplant surgeons rather than one. There teaching credits at hair restoration meetings and workshop worldwide are very impressive as are their credentials.

In short, in my opinion, the quality of care and service being provided by the Farjo clinic is on pare with leading clinics in North America.

The photos presented below show highlights from my observation of two patients over two days. I also had an opportunity to see some of their impressive patient results in person.

The first patient had hair transplantation performed on his hairline and midscalp regions. His donor strip measured approximately 1.2 cm wide by 30 cm long. His donor density was low and so his strip yielded 2,196 follicular unit grafts consisting of 315 one hair grafts, 1,701 twos and 180 three/four hair grafts.

The second patient on my second day observing had hair transplantation in his crown area only. His donor strip was approximately 1.1 cm wide and 30 cm long. It yielded 2,488 grafts consisting of 379 single hair grafts, 1,764 two hair grafts and 345 three and four hair grafts.

Chucky,

Pat is traveling and should be back in a few days.

I think the pictures in this thread are impressive and truly show not only that the Farjo clinic uses Ultra Refined Follicular Unit Grafting, but also the artistic talent - especially in the immediately post op picture of the crown.

Mick,

I look forward to seeing more of your involvement with us.

Bill

Hi,
Can anyone suggest me whats the best HT clinic in UK?

Thanks
Tulip

Tulip,

Since you've posted on this topic, in my opinion, you're looking at them :-). In my opinion, the Farjo clinic are doing ultra refined hair transplants with excellent results. I know they've been very busy due to how popular they've become. However, in my opinion, it's better to wait to get the job done right than potentially choosing a clinic using outdated techniques.

In addition to Drs Bessam and Nilofer Farjo, we recommend dozens of leading hair transplant doctors worldwide. To see a list of who we recommend, click here. To see our demanding standards for recommendation, click here.

Best wishes,

Bill Seemiller
