#BeforeAndAfterMondays This patient underwent a follicular unit transplant (FUT) session with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley in which a total of 2642 grafts were placed The hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs. As with all of Dr. Wesley’s patients, the patient was NOT required to cut his hair for the procedure. As a result, this patient was able to return comfortably to work and social activities within approximately 7-10 days of his procedure. The patient returned 2 years after the procedure and images of this patient can be seen below.

His hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs. Rather than a larger FUE punch used by a robotic approach, Dr. Wesley used a smaller caliber hand-held motorized punch to performed the donor harvest. This approach better enabled the capture of donor hair roots that are slightly curved beneath the skin surface. Upon completion of the harvest, the patient’s donor area was treated with PRP and ACell in order to not only minimize scar tissue formation, but also encourage partial regeneration of donor hair follicles. The patient returned 4 years later after his procedure and images of the patient can be seen below. This link illustrates the timing of hair growth after surgery.

In an effort to keep both patients and our surgical staff healthy and safe during the novel coronavirus outbreak, our office has suspended operations temporarily beginning on Monday, March 23rd. During this time of closure and upon welcoming patient visits once again, we will continue our enhanced maintenance of an optimally-sanitized environment. To this end, we have installed a TZAP Air Purification System in addition to performing a daily sterilization of all surfaces within our office. This ultraviolet air-cleansing system has been proven to reduce the risk virus transmission within a conditioned space and can actually decrease the germs in a sneeze by 99% before they travel 3 feet. To further improve the office habitat, Dr. Wesley has also limited patient traffic by suspending any fee for virtual consultations that he himself continues to perform. Moreover, Dr. Wesley and each member of his staff travel to and from the office and their homes only in their own private vehicles (rather than public transportation). In compliance with the New York Dept of Health, our in-office activity will remain suspended until the mandate has been lifted for our specialty. With our objective to remain the cleanest and most sanitary office in NYC, we will continue to take measures to keep both our patients and our staff healthy and safe.

Here is the patient’s intra op pictures. Thank you.

Donor area look so much better!

#BeforeAndAfterMonday This female patient underwent a follicular unit transplantation (FUT) session with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley in which a total of 1755 grafts were placed Her hair follicles were incubated in autologous (her own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs. As with all of Dr. Wesley’s patients, she was NOT required to shave her hair for the procedure. As a result, this patient was able to return comfortably to work and social activities within approximately 7-10 days of his procedure. The patient returned one year after her procedure and images of the patient can be seen below.

In order to repair a poorly-executed transplant performed by another surgeon, this patient underwent a combination of two approaches with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley: a follicular unit extraction (FUE) session in which a total of 2337 grafts (from both scalp and beard) were placed. Only 250 grafts sprinkles on crown and about 100 added to cover the donor scar. His hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs. Rather than a larger FUE punch used by a robotic approach, Dr. Wesley used a smaller caliber hand-held motorized punch to performed the donor harvest. This approach better enabled the capture of donor hair roots that are slightly curved beneath the skin surface.

#BeforeAndAfterMondays This patient underwent an autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) treatment with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley. With this non-surgical approach to treating hair loss, he was able to reverse the biologic course of the thousands of miniaturized follicles atop his head and generate more hair fullness. Dr. Wesley previously delivered an in-depth lecture on PRP scalp treatment for genetic hair loss detailing all aspects of this procedure. The benefits and limitations of PRP procedures are described in this video for all interested patients who would like to learn more about this novel therapy. The patient returned 8 months after his PRP treatment series (involving 2 procedures) and images of the patient can be seen below.
