History and Physical Exam by the Doctor
Medical history –We will go over your complete medical history to see if there are any past medical issues that might adversely affect your ability to have a successful hair transplant- Physical examination – We review your hair loss pattern, skin and hair condition and any styling options you currently use.
- Microscopic evaluation –We’ll perform a hair miniaturization study that shows the areas of scalp where you have active hair loss as well as predict the future of your baldness. This is a very critical test that lets the doctor determine if you have healthy donor hair and proper recipient skin that allows for full growth of your hair.
- Other diagnostics – At times, other diagnostic tools might be necessary to determine the cause of your hair loss and how to treat your condition. Some patients may need further blood work or a scalp biopsy if the doctor suspects other types of hair loss that may need non-surgical treatments.
Crafting a Master Plan
- During the consultation appointment, the doctor will craft the best overall plan that suits your hair loss condition at the present time while also presenting the best options for the future. This plan not only includes the surgical procedure, it considers the medical treatments as well as styling and cosmetic products that will give you the best results.
- Medication– You might not be a good candidate at this time to undergo a hair transplant but there are medications we can discuss that can help slow the rate of your hair loss.
- Hair Transplant – If you are ready to have a Los Angeles hair restoration procedure, we’ll explain the difference between FUE hair transplant, FUT hair transplant and Celebrity FUE Hair Transplant to help you make an educated and informed decision regarding your transplant choice based on your goals as well as your available amount of donor hair.
- Once you make the decision about which hair restoration technique to undergo, we will design your hairline in order to give you the high quality results you desire and deserve.
- The post-op steps you need to follow after your procedure will be discussed with you during your hair transplant consultation. This discussion includes the final results you will see, when to expect them, the steps you need to follow after the surgery and any potential complications.
