The Groove Optic hand-piece from Palomar Medical Technologies Inc’s represents a significant improvement in fractional ablative skin resurfacing for users of the firm’s Lux2940 laser systems, according to the company.
The new hand-piece, announced this week, creates a unique, grooved injury pattern on skin that increases ablative tissue coverage while preserving the benefits of fractional approaches, the company stated in a press release. CO2 is no longer the preferred option for physicians seeking single-treatment deep facial skin resurfacing for their patients.
The Groove Optic for the Lux2940 hand piece represents a fractional-ablative approach to deep skin resurfacing that’s high coverage, yet preserves healthy skin, allowing rapid patient recovery and reduced risk discomfort, infection and scarring. Study shows that patients treated with the Groove Optic for facial skin resurfacing reported minimal downtime (an average of 4 days), along with rapid resolution of side effects. Patient feedback from the study indicated that skin felt tighter, looked smoother, wrinkles were reduced and skin had a more natural color and even skin tone.

The ARTAS system is a computer assisted system that utilizes image guidance to improve the quality of harvesting the hair follicles.
This machine is capable of solving many of the technical problems that come with the manual FUE technique. Guided by a physician, the robot is able to identify and harvest follicular units and then store them until they are implanted into the patients recipient area using the manual technique.

In the Robotic Hair Transplant ARTAS system patient is prepared by being seated comfortably in the semi-prone position in a specially designed chair, the patient’s hair being cut down to about 1mm in length and a skin tensioner placed on the scalp.
The proprietary skin tensioner improves precision and control of the incision depth. It also has fiduciary markings that, when used in the ARTAS Robotic Hair Transplant  procedure, allow the imaging system to track patient placement and movement.
The robotic arm is positioned overhead. The physician and only one staff member are required to perform this procedure. The imaging system constantly scans the patient’s scalp and identifies groups of one to three hairs or follicular units. It automatically targets follicular units for harvesting based on configurable input and extracts follicles in random and undetectable patterns at a frequency determined by the physician. Then the follicular units are presently implanted by hand by the surgeon and staff member after a small slit is made in the recipient areas.

Important Information to Share with Your Hair Restoration Physician

Severe acne, daily aspirin, heavy smoking or drinking are all risk factors that have the potential to affect the successful outcome of hair transplantation or other forms of hair restoration surgery. Acne and hair loss are both conditions that effect someone’s appearance, and both are conditions for which effective treatments are available. The patient may not see any obvious relationships between treatment for acne and treatment for hair loss, other than his or her concern for correction of cosmetic deficits. However, a physician hair restoration specialist recognizes that some medical treatments for acne can influence the timing of surgical hair restoration to assure the outcome but rarely prohibits hair restoration surgery.
Side effects of isotretinoin are hair loss and changes in the structure of skin and hair, both of which can influence the outcome of a hair restoration surgery. Blood thinning medication may put a patient at risk for excessive bleeding during and after a surgical procedure. Behavioral risk can also influence the outcome of surgery include heavy tobacco use as well as heavy use of alcohol. Both of these factors can be associated with operative and postoperative risk. Patients should not be shy in revealing behavioral risk factors such as smoking and drinking. The surgeon should know about these risk factors before undertaken any type of surgery. Any patient who neglects to reveal all current and past medical treatments to the hair restoration specialist puts himself/herself at risk for less than optimum hair restoration outcome. No information should be withheld because the patient fails to see its importance to hair loss treatment, or for any reason such as embarrassment about a medical condition currently or recently under treatment.

Hair Restoration Surgery Begins with Why You Want Hair Restoration Surgery and What You Expect It to Do For You

HOME
3D VIDEOS
Hair Restoration does exactly what its name say it does. It restores hair to areas of hair loss. It is a cosmetic procedure that improves the esthetic image of a man or woman who is experiencing hair loss and wishes to restore his/her appearance. This procedure is highly successful that achieves the satisfactory outcome desired by the great majority of patients. Hair restoration is a procedure that cannot be undone after it has been performed on a person. However, it can be revised over time with additional surgery. With this being said it is very important that patients should be fully forthcoming in all answers, and should in turn ask as many questions as necessary to feel fully informed.
All questions regarding this procedure are usually resolved by discussions between patient and physician hair restoration specialist. In most cases, patient and physician arrive at an agreement on realistic expectations for outcome. Well directed questions, honest and full answers, discussion and agreement on all matters relating to the hair restoration procedure are as essential to good outcome as it the surgical procedure itself.
