We no longer need to shave the donor area!

The last few years saw the growth of the Follicular Unit Extraction method of hair transplantation, which harvests one follicular unit at a time from the patient's donor hair area leaving small, round, less detectable scars, which benefits patients who use a very short hairstyle.

However, doctors performing this type of procedure shave the patient's donor area in order to harvest each individual graft.

This has not been an easy experience on patients, creating embarrassing moments from being seen in public with a half-shaved head, or worse, having to take time off in order for their hair to grow back in the donor area.

Dr. Marco Barusco , Medical Director of Tempus Hair Restoration, is proud to announce the implementation of the "No Shave" FUE method of hair transplantation.

Dr. Barusco explains: "Although going between each hair to harvest grafts during an FUE procedure can be very tedious, it's well worth the effort considering my patients don't have to suffer down time after the procedure... they can immediately return to their normal routine with a full and thick donor area."

Here is a list of benefits in choosing the “No Shave” FUE method:

• Quicker return to normal activies

• Harvested donor sites are completely concealed, immediately

• Allows female patients to have the FUE method, since most were are willing to shave their head

• Ideal technique for patients with prior strip harvesting scars who now are choosing the FUE method, since the linear scars from the previous method will not be seen as they would if shaved

• Allows Dr. Barusco to see, in real time, the effect of the harvesting being performed, avoiding over harvesting in a particular area, which can result in an uneven “thinned out” appearance

• Dr. Barusco can select, one by one, the strongest and best hairs to harvest, including hairs with the ideal curl and/or color, since they are being chosen one by one in their original length.

This year, Dr. Barusco's "No Shave" FUE technique will be published in the latest hair transplantation textbook. This will be the third chapter written by Dr. Barusco in this publication as well as a huge step for hair restoration.
