FUE Grafts Into Scalp Scar Resulting from Break Dancing
Hair Transplant, Hair LossGreetings,
Here is a very interesting case of a patient who was a frequent break dancer in the day. His continued head spinning cause the hair at the top of his head to fall out in the exact spot where the scalp received repetitive trauma. Anything that causes repetitive trauma to the scalp can cause the hair in those places to fall out.
I harvested approximately 150 grafts via FUE from the back of the scalp and we transplanted these grafts into the area devoid of hair.
The results are show after 1 year. The patient is thrilled.

Beware of Hair Transplant In Young Patients
Hair Transplant, Hair TransplantationGreetings,
Here is a patient I recently saw in consultation who had received a FUE hair transplant of over 3000 grafts at age 21 from another physician. He is now age 24 and wanted me to evaluate his results and ask my opinion about his options moving forward. I was dismayed to see how his donor region had been completely depleted to the point where it was almost see through at a #4 haircut. When FUE is done properly in a patient with average density you should be able to cut your donor hair to at least a #2 haircut without seeing any sign of thinning. In addition, his hairline had been transplanted in a very aggressive pattern (meaning very low). To perform a hair transplant on a 21 year old male who is predicted to advance to a severe hair loss pattern is never a good idea. To to this to a 21 year old patient with an aggessive hairline is just plain wrong.
After more questioning the patient shared that he was treated by a local plastic surgeon who does not specialize in hair transplants. The surgeon had purchased the Neograft machine and had technicians perform the entire procedure. I was not surprised to hear this after seeing his results. Beware of other specialists that do not specialize in hair transplant procedures with the Neograft machine offering hair transplants through their clinics. I have seen many cases over the past few years of botched hair transplants and routinely I hear the same thing. They went to a physician who is well known for another specialty and got sold on having their technicians perform the entire procedure with their Neograft machine.
Hair transplant surgery is both an art and a science. it is not a specialty that one learns in a weekend course, and it is not an art that should be taken lightly.
In this patient’s case he does not have enough donor hair to fill in the massive area of balding below his unnaturally low thin hairline. In addition, he is only 24 and will lose all his additional hair on top of his head over the next 8-10 years. His options include removal of the unnatural hairline via FUE and recycling of the grafts further back. His donor on the back and sides is almost depleted so his best option is to use beard and body hair for increased density.
In the photos below I have drawn in where his hairline should have been transplanted to show the contrast to where it actually was. I always say it is better to have a higher hairline with higher density versus a lower hairline with lower density. No one has unlimited donor hair and especially in young patients predicted to proceed to advanced hair loss there is never enough donor hair and it all needs to be used very judiciously.
This patient looked like he had less than 1/3 of his harvested grafts actually grow. Received a very unnatural hairline. Should not have had a procedure at age 21 to begin with.
Beware of having a hair transplant under the age of 24 and when done it should be in a very conservative fashion. Also, beware of physicians that do not specialize exclusively in hair transplant surgery.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, M.D.

Eyebrow Transplant Patient In The News
Eyebrow Transplant, Eyebrow Transplantation, Eyebrow RestorationGreetings,
Last week I had an eyebrow transplant patient who flew in from Dallas for her procedure. She had lost her eyebrows after a laser treatment gone awry that removed most of her existing eyebrow hair. Her story was featured on the local news and you can watch it from the link below. In the video she is approximately one week post procedure but you can already see the dramatic change.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, M.D.

FUE Hair Transplant with shaved strips
Hair TransplantGreetings,
FUE hair transplants are the process where individual hair follicles are extracted with a tool and then transplanted into areas of hair loss. In order to extract the follicles the hair needs to be cut down to it’s shortest length above the skin so that the hair doesn’t get tangled in the tool extracting the grafts. This means shaving the scalp in most cases.
For patient’s having procedures which require less than 1500 grafts extracted there is now another option. The patient can grow the hair in the back and sides longer and we can shave either one large strip (smaller than the length of the hair) or multiple smaller strips (also smaller than the length of the hair) which allows the native long hair to hang down and cover up the extracted areas.
This allows the patient to keep the long hair and not shave the entire back and sides of the scalp and still have an FUE hair transplant. This technique is becoming very popular amongst actors (who can’t change their appearance if they have longer hair in the midst of a recurring show) and other individuals that do not want such a dramatic change to their appearance. The results are just as good as the full shaven technique and it is proving to be a very popular alternative to traditional FUE shaving.
I have included some photos of a recent patient I performed this technique on.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, M.D.

ISHRS Meeting Las Vegas
Eyebrow Transplant, Eyebrow RestorationGreetings,
I just returned a few weeks ago from the annual meeting of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery in Las Vegas. As usual it was a great opportunity to re-connect with friends and colleagues and hear about all the latest innovations in the field. As has become routine for me over the past number of years, I gave a lecture on Eyebrow Transplants and detailed my approach to the procedure. There is a great deal of interest in eyebrow transplants and it is very gratifying for me to be able to share my experience and expertise with others.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, M.D.

Mustache FUE Hair Transplant
Hair Transplant, Hair Loss, Hair Transplantation, FUE Hair Transplant, Hair Restoration, Facial Hair Transplant, Beard Hair Transplant, Mustache Hair transplantGreetings,
Here is a patient of mine who wanted a Tom Selleck circa Magnum PI mustache. His mustache was a little thin genetically.
I harvested just over 700 grafts via FUE using a 0.75mm extraction tip from the neck beard. That way I would be transferring hair from one area to another that has the same quality to it.
The “after” photos show the patient one week after the procedure and as you can see the scarring from the extractions in the donor area is almost invisible and the mustache appears significantly wider and denser than it was pre procedure. The patient will shed most of the transplanted mustache hairs and they will regrow starting at 3-4 months but this photo is a sneak peak into the final result that we should see in 9-12 months.
The patient is thrilled and excited to see his final results then.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, MD

Eyebrow Transplant In Female African American Patient
Eyebrow TransplantGreetings,
Here is a result of an eyebrow transplant in a female African American patient of mine. The results are shown after 1 year. I always let all patients know that the quality of their scalp hair will stay the same when I move it to the eyebrow. Despite the curly nature of this patient’s hair her results are very natural and she is thrilled. The right eyebrow grew in perfectly. The left eyebrow can use about 20 hairs to fill in a couple light spots. Eyebrow transplant patients can expect 90-95% growth of the transplanted follicles, however we never know which ones won’t regrow. In this case, we will be performing a small FUE procedure to extract the 20 hairs and will fill in the spots in the left eyebrow to make them both as close to perfect as possible.
All the best,
Marc Dauer, MD
