Hair Restoration

Hair loss can be a frustrating experience for both men and women. Dr. Tawfik offers a variety of hair restoration treatments.

Smart Graft

SmartGraft™ has completely changed the way we look at hair restoration. SmartGraft™ uses a combination of innovative technology and precision craftsmanship to bring you faster and more efficient results. The science is in the device. Hair grafts can be more precisely extracted and placed into a holding canister that automatically counts, sorts, and moistens the grafts. This moistening process reduces the procedure time which equates to higher success rates of the implanted grafts. You can expect more natural looking and feeling, permanent hair growth results.

Dr Tawfik will discuss your specific goals for your hair restoration procedure and customize a plan of action to address those goals. The length of your procedure will depend on the number of grafts to be used. For your procedure, the donor area will be prepped and a local anaesthetic will be applied to make sure the area is numb. 

The SmartGraft™ device can then be used to gently remove small grafts from the donor area and store the grafts in a sterile, controlled environment. After all the grafts have been collected, they can be implanted using tiny openings no larger than a pinprick. Again, the implanted area is also prepped using a local anaesthetic, so you will feel very little discomfort. After your procedure is complete, you can go home and resume your normal activities in 1-2 days. You will start to notice new growth in about 3 months, with noticeable improvement in 6 months and full growth at 12-14 months. Since you are re-growing your own hair, your results will look and feel as natural as if the hair had always been there.

My Story

PRL With Stem Cells & Exosomes

PRL is an exciting non-surgical therapeutic option for patients who require stimulation of hair growth for hair loss conditions. Recent scientific research and technology provides the medical community with new understandings of wound and tissue healing. As a result of these scientific studies, PRL is recognised as an all-natural autologous medical procedure performed in the clinic for scalp, skin, and hair stimulation.

The procedure

Blood is drawn at the clinic and is spun in a centrifuge and the PRL is separated and removed from the rest of the blood. The PRL is taken from your body and is specially prepared by spinning down the blood cells to a high concentration. The system eliminates granulocytes which hurts tissue regeneration and wound healing. An anaesthesia block is given to nerves of the scalp so the patient does not feel any pain. The highly concentrated platelet rich lysate (PRL) is then injected into the scalp. The patient’s hair is then washed and the patient may drive home without any assistance. No sedation or any medication is given during the procedure to inhibit the ability to drive or use machinery. PRL contains many growth factors that stimulate the hair follicle growth. PRL can be used preoperatively, intraoperatively, or post operatively. Some patient’s chose to have PRL performed every 3 to 4 months.

Light Therapy

Dr Tawfik offers the latest technology on LED Red and Green Laser Light Therapy. The standard in- office treatment is twice weekly, with sessions lasting 25 minutes for the first six weeks and then twice monthly thereafter for the next 3 to 6 months. Maintenance therapy includes at minimum one time per month, however improved results are noted with more frequent sessions.

The light source is applied while you either sit or lay down and the procedure is painless. Typical results are noted after 3 months and maintenance is required to provide long term results.

Laser Light therapy can be used alone or in conjunction with hair restoration surgery. When used following hair restoration therapy it promotes early growth and survival of the transplanted hairs.

Laser light therapy is not likely to be useful in individuals with long- term and progressive balding or in individuals with contraindications for use of laser therapy such as in those with skin cancer. It is otherwise a safe and potentially effective treatment for alopecia, though results may vary.

FOTOFINDER

The use of this technology makes it possible to evaluate therapeutic agents for hair and facilitates the assessment of the treatment’s success.
