  10. Excellent point. This patient could benefit from temple restoration, unfortunately he did not have the donor supply and we made the decision to use all the hair on top. It is important to keep in mind that temple thinning diminishes the donor supply as the donor hair needs to be taken mainly form the back. This must be taken into account. Temple hair loss also portends more significant hair loss overall.
  11. Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration Patient ECL had a Norwood Class 6 pattern of hair loss with medium, straight, light brown hair and a donor density of 1.8 hairs/mm2.

  14. Update: Here are some additional photos and information about the patient's donor area: The first image shows a diagonal scar in the donor area from an accident that the patient had as a child. The ARTAS robot was programmed to avoid this scar when harvesting. Grafts were subsequently placed into the scar (see second photo). The third photo shows the donor area 11 days post-op just before he went to the barber to have his hair trimmed.

  16. Hi All, Last month, Dr. Bernstein published his article "Hair Transplantation: More than Surgery, A Journey" where he offers a detailed description of what to expect throughout your hair transplant process - from your hair loss consultation with a board certified surgeon, to graft placement and post-operative growth. Read the full article.
  17. Reasonable comment, but his donor density was only 1.6 hairs/mm2 and his donor area continued to thin a bit over time - as did his hair transplant. I presented this as an example of very light coverage making and older person (with modest expectations) quite satisfied.
  18. Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration Patient SFI is a Norwood Class 5, with slightly wavy, fine, white hair. With a donor density that is relatively low (1.6 hairs/mm2). He had two hair restoration procedures totaling 4,137 follicular unit grafts. Overview: Before / After: Before Hair Transplant After 2nd Hair Transplant Detail of Hairline: Before Transplant Position of Hairline After 2nd Hair Transplant Top View: View of the top of the scalp after two sessions. Note that over the course of the four years since his first procedure, much of the original hair on the top of his scalp has been lost leaving him mainly with transplanted hair on the top of his scalp. Because of his low donor density and fine hair, he has relatively light, but natural coverage.

  20. Hi All, Last month, Bernstein Medical performed the first hair transplant procedure using the new ARTAS 9x Robot. These upgrades allow for faster and more precise Robotic FUE procedures. Visit the Bernstein Medical website to discover the 8 main advances of the ARTAS 9x!
  21. Good question. His donor density was low and his scalp slightly tight, so we decided not to go back to harvest more grafts in that session. We were able to accomplish what we needed to in the way of coverage. Increased density can be achieved at a future session when the scalp has stretched a bit - or by FUE.
  22. Bernstein Medical - Center for Hair Restoration Patient IOI was a Norwood Class 6 with medium thickness, straight brown hair and a donor density of 2.0 hairs/mm2. The patient had one hair transplant consisting of 2,116 follicular unit grafts. The “after” photos were taken one year after his hair restoration surgery.
