FOR FUE HAIR TRANSPLANTATION
Dr. Williams- The Physicians’ Hair Surgeon
Dr. Williams actively participates at numerous hair restoration workshops and
education conferences worldwide. In the United States as an instructor and teacher of
the FUE donor harvesting procedure at numerous training workshops. For this reason,
more medical doctors and physicians come to our facility in Irvine, California to have
their hair surgery performed because Dr. Williams is a teacher and instructor to
physicians in training.
Physicians and surgeons instinctively understand from their residency and
postgraduate medical training, that the best hair surgeon is the one who teaches FUE to
other hair restoration physicians. Dr. Williams is one of a handful of FUE surgeons who
actually began FUE donors harvesting with hand held devices.
Although, the ARTAS® is not the most technologically advanced robotic device, the human touch and physician over sight remains necessary for all hair transplant procedures. Dr. Williams believes the use of the FUE instruments and devices requires the presence of a surgeon at all times during donor harvesting. He personally is present for every harvest attempt by the ARTAS. He attends to his patients by completing all of the critical- to- quality steps of hair restoration procedure. His artistic efforts leaves not only natural appearing hair lines and design, but importantly the donor region is aesthetically pleasing when your surgical procedure is completed. Dr. Williams carefully plans the donor harvesting management portion of the FUE procedure that leaves his patient’s donor scalp healthier for future FUE surgical procedures.
The Hair Restoration Process
The Robotic hair restoration procedure similar to all other FUE instruments involves the removal of hair follicles from the patient’s donor harvesting region, or in common terms, the back area of the scalp. This area on the scalp typically contains stabile hair follicles that are removed and transplanted to the balding areas of the scalp. This region of the scalp is anesthetized with local anesthesia to provide an absolute pain free experience. After scoring and dissecting the individual follicle from the safe donor region, the follicular units are extracted, then implanted back into the balding areas of the scalp.
The most important aspect to hair restoration surgery still remains the experience of the
physician, and the surgical and medical oversight the surgeon provides you.
