Robotic Hair Transplantation.
Facial plastic surgery clinics of North America, 2020Co-Authors: Marc R. Avram, Shannon WatkinsAbstract:Contemporary Hair transplant surgery creates natural appearing transplanted Hair. The procedure is performed as an outpatient under local anesthesia. Donor harvesting can be performed by either elliptical donor harvesting or follicular unit extraction. An experience surgical team is needed for a high-quality, efficient procedure. Robotic Hair Transplantation allows precise and efficient removal of follicular units. The robot allows for minimally invasive surgery. Robotic Hair Transplantation is an important tool for Hair transplant surgeons, but does not replace appropriate candidate selection, Hairline design, and the judgment of where to place and not place transplanted Hair for optimal short- and long-term results.

robotic follicular unit extraction in Hair Transplantation
Dermatologic Surgery, 2014Co-Authors: Marc R. Avram, Shannon WatkinsAbstract:BACKGROUNDIn recent years, there has been a shift toward minimally invasive procedures. In Hair Transplantation surgery, this trend has manifested with the emergence of follicular unit extraction (FUE). Recently, a robot has been introduced for FUE procedures.OBJECTIVETo determine the transection ra

Contemporary Hair Transplantation
Dermatologic surgery : official publication for American Society for Dermatologic Surgery [et al.], 2009Co-Authors: Marc R. Avram, Nicole E. RogersAbstract:BACKGROUNDThe field of Hair Transplantation has evolved considerably over the last quarter century. Performed correctly, the cosmetic results of contemporary Hair Transplantation are virtually undetectable in women and men. Large, pluggy “punch grafts” have been replaced with natural-appearing folli

Hair Transplantation for men.
Journal of cosmetic and laser therapy : official publication of the European Society for Laser Dermatology, 2008Co-Authors: Marc R. Avram, Nicole E. RogersAbstract:Men throughout history have suffered from various degrees of Hair loss. Modern techniques for Hair Transplantation give rise to natural and long‐lasting results. In this paper we provide an overview of the procedure, including the harvesting of donor Hair in the occipital scalp, and its redistribution along the frontal‐ and mid‐scalp areas. Special consideration must be made to choosing the candidates carefully and to performing their surgery in a manner that looks appropriate for all ages. We describe the role of medications for male pattern Hair loss and with Hair Transplantation.

Hair Transplantation for men and women.
Seminars in cutaneous medicine and surgery, 2006Co-Authors: Marc R. AvramAbstract:The goal of Hair Transplantation is to restore a natural, undetectable frame of Hair to the face. From the 1960s into the late 1990s, using 10 to 25 Hair, 3-4 mm grafts was the mainstay of Hair Transplantation, despite the fact Hair naturally grows in the scalp in bundles of 1 to 4 Hair follicles. The 10 to 25 Hair grafts looked unnatural because they were unnatural on the scalp. Today, surgeons meticulously harvest the natural 1 to 4 Hair follicular groupings from donor Hair and implant them in the recipient region in men and women. This technique consistently creates natural-appearing Hair. Women can benefit from Transplantation as much as men.

the potential role of minoxidil in the Hair Transplantation setting
Dermatologic Surgery, 2002Co-Authors: Marc R. Avram, Marcelo Gandelman, John Cole, Chevy Chase, Robert S Haber, Russell Knudsen, Matt Leavitt, Robert T Leonard, Carlos J Puig, Paul T RoseAbstract:background. Over the last decade surgical management of Hair loss has become an increasingly popular and satisfying procedure for both men and women, as innovations in donor harvesting, graft size, and Hairline design have resulted in consistently natural-appearing Hair restoration. objective. In addition, a better understanding of the regulation of the Hair-growth cycle has led to advances in the pharmacologic treatment of androgenetic alopecia. methods. Currently there are two U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved agents that promote Hair regrowth: over-the-counter topical minoxidil solution for men and women and prescription oral finasteride tablets for men. In October 2001, a group of 11 international experts on Hair loss and Hair Transplantation convened to review the physiology and effects of pharmacologic treatments of Hair loss and to discuss the value of administering topical minoxidil therapy as an adjunct to Hair Transplantation. results. This article presents the key findings and consensus points among the participants, including their current use of pharmacologic treatments, strategies for optimal results both pre- and postsurgery, and the importance of realistic patient expectations and compliance. conclusions. Based on the surgeons' clinical experience, the use of approved Hair regrowth agents in Hair transplant patients with viable but suboptimally functioning follicles in the region to be transplanted can increase Hair density, speed regrowth in transplanted follicles, and complement the surgical result by slowing down or stopping further Hair loss.

Effects of cooling micrografts in Hair Transplantation surgery
Dermatologic Surgery, 1999Co-Authors: Edoardo Raposio, Antonio Cella, P. Panarese, Stefano Mantero, Rolf E. A. Nordström, Pierluigi SantiAbstract:Background. When isolating Hair grafts in Hair Transplantation procedures, it is generally recommended to preserve the grafts at a low temperature (1°C– 4°C) in order to enhance the survival rate of the grafted Hairs. This study was carried out to test the real benefits provided by cold-storing Hair grafts. Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate, in an in vitro model, the effects of cooling micrografts during Hair Transplantation procedures to experimentally assess the soundness of this approach to enhance the survival and growth rates of Hair micrografts. Methods. A total of 240 anagen Hair follicles were obtained from 10 healthy male patients. Follicles were thus randomly assigned to one of the following groups: group A ( control; n = 120 follicles), or group B ( experimental; n = 120 follicles). Follicles from group A were preserved for 5 hours at room temperature (26°C), and follicles from group B were preserved for 5 hours at 1°C. Immediately after that 5-hour period, follicles from both groups were then cultured for 10 days. The length of each follicle was measured immediately following the 5-hour test period and at the end of the 10-day culture period. Results. No statistically significant differences were found between the survival and growth rates of follicles from the control ( survival rate = 87%, mean 10- day growth rate = 2.68 mm) and experimental ( survival rate = 88%, mean 10- day growth rate = 2.54 mm) groups. Conclusion. Although, at present, it is generally assumed that lowering the metabolism of grafts by reducing their temperature may be of some utility for enhancing their survival rate, our data indicate of that there are no effects when performing Hair Transplantation surgery.

pseudo dense Hair Transplantation strategy of less inside more outside and central bulking with curled chest Hairs as treatment for scalp scars
Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, 2020Co-Authors: Amir Feily, Jacobs Alexander, Muhammadj Niaz, Serena Gianfaldoni, Torello Lotti, Marigdalia K RamirezfortAbstract:Hair Transplantation in areas of scalp scars is a clinical challenge. However, by creating the visual illusion of central bulking with the use of peripherally transplanted curled chest Hairs, cicatricial alopecia can perhaps be cosmetically improved. In a case of a 34-year-old affected man, this strategic procedure was implemented with positive results, as the Transplantation was successful, the scar was far less noticeable, and the patient was satisfied with the results. The "pseudo-dense Hair Transplantation" method can be applied to similar patients, noting that a more succinct procedure will need to be elucidated for the varying etiologies of cicatricial alopecia.

Pseudo-dense Hair Transplantation: Strategy of “less inside, more outside” and central bulking with curled chest Hairs as treatment for scalp scars
