We have one simple set of goals for each of our hair transplant patients: to achieve as much naturalness and density as possible. We feel these two goals are best achieved when the plan is individualized for each patient, depending on what we are presented with.

There are a host of factors that must be taken into account with each patient before formulating the best plan: Some of the more important factors are: the patient’s age, the hair-to-skin color contrast, the caliber of the hair, the patient’s goals for later styling, and, perhaps most important, the ratio of available donor hair in relation to the recipient area in need of coverage.
 

Dr. Barry Weiss

Hair transplant and Restoration Surgery, like all other plastic surgeries, is an art. It requires an expert surgeon like Dr. Barry Weiss, with over 20 years experience and a trained hand to create the most natural appearing results that are undetectable to even the most critical eye.

As a dedicated hair transplant surgeon, Dr. Weiss places the strongest possible emphasis on establishing a solid doctor-patient relationship right from the start, which will help guide the patient through the entire hair restoration process.

Each patient is treated as a unique individual. At Paulus Hair Restoration Group, we realize that every patient has unique needs and desires.

Dr. Weiss is renowned for his keen aesthetic sense in performing hair transplants and his exceptional surgical skills.

At Paulus Hair Restoration Center in Salt Lake City, Dr. Weiss has an outstanding professional staff thoroughly trained in the latest hair transplant techniques.

Regarding what types of grafts are to be used, we are not “locked in” or programmed to do hair transplantation with only one narrowly defined method, but rather offer to each patient both the “all follicular-unit” graft method and the “combination grafting” (70-80% FU’s and 20-30% small multi-FU grafts) approach.
 

What Kind of Techniques are used in Hair Transplant Surgery?

Simply put, the hair transplant procedure involves moving healthy hair follicles from the back and sides of the head to areas that are bald or thinning due to male or female pattern hair loss.

The hair transplant takes place by surgically transferring these genetically-resistant hair follicles in the form of follicular grafts into the balding areas.

The investment in surgical hair restoration varies greatly depending on the techniques used, as well as your individual hair loss situation. Your investment will last a lifetime.

There is a great amount of flexibility in the manner in which sessions are set up and spaced, in order to best ease the patient's financial burden.

Over the past decade, there have been monumental changes in the way hair transplantation is performed. Both the techniques of hair transplant surgery and the instrumentation have been refined and sophisticated to a point that it is possible in most patients to consistently achieve results that are undetectable to the public.

At Hair Restoration Institute of Minnesota, we constantly strive to stay as up-to-date as possible with the advances in the field, so that our clients realize the highest quality results possible.
 

Does Hair Transplantation Really Work?

Yes. The transplanted hair is removed from one area known as the donor site (typically the side or back of the head) and transferred to another (recipient site). The transferred tissue is not "rejected" as it is not foreign tissue. The transplanted hair maintains it's own characteristics; color, texture, growth rate, and curl, after transplantation and regrowth.

The day of the "pluggy" doll hair look is long gone. The main limitation to hair transplantation is density. While hair is moved from one location to another, there is no overall increase in hair density as a result.

Therefore it is important to determine whether you qualify as a candidate for hair transplant surgery. This can only be determined during an initial examination by a qualified specialist.


The Procedure

Hair transplantation is considered a “minor” outpatient surgery that takes from 3–8 hours. Patients are kept pain-free and comfortable with a gentle oral or IV sedation medication. Within 10–14 weeks hair transplant patients will begin to realize significant growth.


Skill, Artistry, Technique and Teamwork

The decision to take action against hair loss can be, for some individuals, a difficult one. By choosing the most qualified hair restoration expert, the decision becomes an easier one to make.

Knowledge of technique is obviously not sufficient in itself. That technique must be specifically applied with meticulous attention to detail to produce superior results. And this is our goal.

However, no surgeon can achieve this goal alone. Hair transplantation, perhaps more that any other surgical procedure, depends on the assistance of skilled medical personnel in a ‘team’ framework.
