Dr. Bernardino Arocha

Thanks Bald36 for viewing and commenting! We love both the coverage that Trico-pigmentation can yield when combined with state of the art hair restoration. Also it can make thin areas appear much thicker.

bunsenburner, Video like sculpture permits a view around the subject. The dynamic comb through shows how natural and full the result really is. Thanks for watching and for your kind words.

chrisdav, Love video, it allows for a 360 view examination, and the dynamic comb through examination of how the hair lays down. It also allows a better examination of donor scars. Thanks!

Thanks hairthere, enjoyed your visit to our clinic very much! I always tell him that he now looks to have Kennedy hair, and he laughs. As if hair loss is not bad enough, a hair transplant that looks like one is even worst!

Thanks voxman for taking the time to view, comment and post on Arocha Hair Restoration's video. Have a great day!

Bald36, Shaving the recipient area is never necessary, I have only done it twice on patient request. I like to work with high power surgical loupes to increase the density while restoring the hair with precision to create the most natural result. Agreed that the video shows the fine detail most since it is like sculpture, allowing us to examine it in multiple angles. It also permits a dynamic examination as the hair is combed through, we may see how it falls. http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/184403-hd-video-dr-arocha-showing-2400-fut-case.html Thanks for taking the time to view and your comments!

hairthere (Erik): Thank you for your kind words! Had a wonderful Independence day. Such a nice kudos from an experienced member of the HTN community is much appreciated! We look forward to your upcoming visit in September!!

Hello HTN community, Happy July 4th to all! God Bless America, we are still young, the best is yet to come! We can do it!! The bottom line, you cannot rely on one procedure or one tool to create Hair Restoration Excellence! During the donor harvest we obtain the raw material to perform our hair restoration art works! Have fun, be safe!!!

Thank you Bill-Managing Publisher, We are very happy that our patient has one less thing to worry about. Life can be stressful enough! By the way I appreciate your kind words about the kind of job my team and I perform on our patients- we take our job seriously!

Nice improvement with surgery and medical therapy! Kudos to the whole Farjo team!

harryforreal and ArochaHair, LOL, I almost fractured a rib! How could I forget the Home Depot test? 911fan and hairthere: We at Arocha Hair Restoration appreciate your kind words and you taking the time to view and comment on our patient results!

Hello Scooter, Your hair is looking great! Can you please call the office, I would like to talk and visit.

hairthere, and David-Moderator: I have always appreciated your dedication to viewing patient results, and your kind kudos are very much appreciated! Have a great weekend!

Thank you 911fan, I am a 911 fan too!

JohnCasper, Thanks for your interest in our case. This was a nice case employing a .9mm punch with our ARTAS robot. As usual the donor heals over a few days, but remarkably the early growth at two weeks has already largely filled in his crown hair loss. Happy Holidays to all!

Thanks Pete-from-Farjo, johnboy71, and esrec: we appreciate your kind words. Esrec, One week post surgery most patients are able to apply concealers:couvre, dermatch, or toppik. Merry Christmass, and Happy Holidays to all!

Thanks David-Moderator, We appreciate your kind words. Hair loss is a tough fight, I like to rise up to the challenge!

Hello Pete-from-Farjo, Thanks for viewing and commenting on our post. Healing is very fast and directly related to the inverse of the size of the punch. Employing punches that are .9mm or smaller ensure the fastest healing that leaves no visible scaring in as little as 3-4 days in most patients.

Thanks to you all, We appreciate your taking the time to view and comment on our videos and other posts! Mick from Farjo, Great to see you back. Putting a smile on someone's face is what life is all about. Hair loss is bad enough, but a bad transplant is even worst. Love to turn things around for these patients in need. home1212, Thank you, I am glad someone was able to help you.Really appreciate your kind kudos. David-moderator, Always appreciate your keen insight and kind words!

Win200, Jaypee2502,David-moderator, NewHairPlease,Born2Shine, humble1, and Pete-from-Farjo: Thank you all for taking the time to view our results, and for all your kind comments! Have a superlative weekend!! TD06 I hope you are having a great weekend.

We at Arocha Hair Restoration do not simply like our patients, we love them! And because of this, I am only replying as asked of me, somewhat reluctantly because I always prefer to keep things confidential. This patient’s outcome is what it is- a very nice improvement of a very thin hairline after a prior surgery elsewhere. I regret that we missed the mark for this patient’s goals. His lofty goal to wear his hair short and spike it up only became apparent after the donor harvest. I automatically increased the recommended estimate number of grafts from 500-1000 depending on hair caliber to increase the likelihood for those patients wanting to be able to spike. The technique employs FU family pairing in strategic areas in the forelock and in the define zone. However, I want the whole HTN community to know that I personally offered to work with him to do a second procedure to further enhance his hairline density instead of spending the time answering his questions online. Furthermore, I told him that he would need an additional 1000 grafts, only because he kept turning around while I was making sites to show me on his smartphone the jpegs of a patient on my website who had very coarse hair about 110 microns. The patient’s hair is medium/fine caliber. The other factor operant was the increased bleeding, this makes it a big challenge to dense pack, since I was literally racing against his heartbeat. Also during surgery, as the hair became very wet, the advancing thinning throughout his frontal half became apparent. Hence, the 2000 FU where employed to anchor the hair line into the thinning fringes as well as enhance his thin hairline. To have employed the grafts only in the hairline would have created a thicker hairline with subsequent erosion of the humps. That would soon require further transplantation to anchor the new hairline or the hairline would become free floating. That is, an anterior persistent fringe would have been created as the thinning continues behind that hairline. The insinuation that we perform surgery on him without anesthesia, is just not very likely. I instruct all patients to frequently give us feed back if they feel any discomfort at all. We teach them a pain scale so we can gauge the order of magnitude of the pain. We have a wide array of short and longer acting local anesthetics so discomfort is not necessary. It is true however, that patients that bleed alot, also metabolize their anesthesia faster and will need more frequent blocking. The allegation that we have been unresponsive is not quite accurate. No one has ignored any of his emails, as a matter of fact we agreed to see him on a Sunday at our Dallas office, because he could not take time off work during the week. But that is not all, we had to drive from our Houston office to see him in Dallas, that is 260 miles each way. Not exactly unresponsive or lacking caring. Sorry about this long post. Many thanks to all the supportive posters, especially those that tried to help the patient to see that his result is not bad, instead it is good. He should be primed for building the strong hair line that he so desires so much. I have no regrets, but one: wish I could have had the opportunity to finish my hair artwork masterpiece! Sincerely, Bernard Arocha, MD, Diplomate of ABHRS, Fellow ISHRS
