Are you looking to make yourself look younger with a hair transplant? Do you wish there were a way of ensuring a high-quality hair transplant from the surgeon you hire? If so, then you need to learn all that you can about finding a hair transplant specialist in Dallas.

Doing so can help you find the perfect fit for your needs. You can find a consistent hair transplant system that’s pain-free, includes groundbreaking technology, and is virtually pain-free.

See below for an in-depth guide on how to find the perfect hair transplant service to achieve your desired results in the Dallas area.

1. Search Through Online Reviews

Finding a hair transplant specialist is a vital part of achieving a younger you. You want to find someone that you can trust. Someone that has a proven track record of success.

Fortunately, you live in the digital age where you can find all of the information that you need in a matter of minutes. There are three main ways that you can learn about hair transplant services in the Dallas area:

  1. Online Reviews
  2. Client Testimonials
  3. Customer References

First, start buying Googling the service that you are considering and look at the reviews that previous clients have left behind. Ask yourself a few questions as you review them:

  • Was the client satisfied with the service that they received?
  • What did they say about the process  at the hair transplant clinic they chose?  Did they enjoy it?
  • Did it take long for the patient to recover from their treatment?
  • Did the surgeon do a good job of explaining the process and treatment before it was performed?
  • Does the patient have any regrets or dissatisfaction with the service?
  • Do they use any robotic technology in their hair transplant treatment?

If you would like a bit more information, you can always reach out to the hair transplant service and ask them for any references to former patients that you could contact.

2. Look for a Streamlined Hair Transplant Treatment

Gone are the days of plugs and stitches to receive a permanent hair transplant treatment. These days, there are much more modernized and streamlined methods of doing so.

Here at the Paragon, we use the ARTAS hair transplant system. This is an interactive computer assisted system that helps provide image guidance in order to make the follicle harvesting process more efficient.

It helps the surgeon in several ways, such as imagine technologies, image-guided robotic arm, computer interface, and small dermal punches.

So how does all of this benefit you as the patient? First off, it’s amazing algorithms will help give you the most efficient hair pattern possible. It protects your healthiest hair follicles and harvests others for the best results.

The ARTAS method requires no stitches, which means that you don’t have to endure any pain during the procedure, and there’s no visible scarring afterwards. It can ensure a consistent graft throughout the entirety of the procedure.

Best of all, those results will heal quickly. You’ll be back to your daily activities in no time at all. Make sure the hair transplant service you hire uses the ARTAS system.

3. Find Experience

No matter what kind of treatment procedure they use, there’s one thing that technology can’t replace: experience.

Experience with the hair transplant procedures, experience with the transplant software that they use, experience with how to communicate with patients. All of it.

Be sure to learn more about the experience of the doctor that you’re considering for your hair transplant. Our board certified hair transplant surgeon, Dr. Mark A. Bishara M.D. has all the experience that you’re looking for.

He specializes in minimally-invasive procedures that enhance the quality and results of the cosmetic procedures that we offer. He’s a proud member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgions (ISHRS), Texas Medical Association, and the Dallas County Medical society.

If you’d like more information on the cosmetic surgeon you’re interested in, reach out to their service via phone for more information.

4. Customer Service Plays a Factor

While the treatment process is important, it isn’t the only factor that you should consider in the hair transplant service you hire.

Make sure that you hire someone that’s looking out for your needs first, not the needs of their wallets. Are they helpful when you call their front office? Do they take the time to answer your questions honestly? Is the information they’re giving you insightful?

If the service you’re speaking with is beating around the bush, then cross them off your list. You want to find someone that’s with you every step of the way.

5. Request Before and After Photos

There’s one primary question you should ask any cosmetic surgeon you speak with: have you worked on hair like mine before? Everyone’s hair is different, but there are a few similarities!

Make sure to request before and after photos of previous patients. How do the photos they’re showing you relate to your hair transplant treatment? Is the surgeon hoping for the same results for your hair?

Viewing both the before and after photos will give you a better view of the surgeon’s expertise. They’ll talk about the requests that patient had, their target areas for harvesting, and so on. It gives you more confidence in the service that you hire.

As with any toy or gadget everything eventually gets an upgrade. In this case the Robotic ARTAS FUE is the upgrade for the old Strip method for hair restoration. More and more people are opting for a Robotic FUE procedure as there are many things that differentiate it from the strip method.  Dr Mark Bishara, the board certified hair restoration surgeon of North Texas, specializes in robotic hair restoration and his practice is a Center of Excellence awarded to very few robotic hair transplants surgeons by Restoration Robotics.
Making the decision to do a strip surgery vs the Robotic FUE can be tough! With a strip procedure your looking at not being able to wear your hair short (unless you don’t mind people seeing the linear scar) as with the Robotic FUE you can wear your hair which ever way you like because the tiny dots are easily disguised. Pain after a Robotic FUE with ARTAS at most will require tylenol or ibuprofen as for a strip procedure most patients need some prescribed narcotic pain medication. Recovery with a Robotic FUE does not have much of down time- 1.5 to 2 days. Most patients return to normal activities 3-4 days after versus with strip it can take up to 2 or more weeks as you will require more time to heal from the incision.
So as you see the improvement has been great and the Robotic FUE ARTAS transplant works wonders. Whats even better is that Dr. Mark Bishara does the Robotic FUE at both his locations, Mansfield and Southlake!  Give us a call and schedule your In-Office or Virtual Consultation, don’t let more time pass by, get started today restoring your hair with the Paragon Hair Clinic and with Dr Mark Bishara, MD, FISHRS.

Another source to hair loss is hormonal change! It is known that hair loss due to hormonal imbalances can cause you to lose hair. Pregnancy and child birth are some of the causes of hormonal imbalances as well as thyroid problems.
Medications! Most people may not know but there are some medications that can cause some hair loss. Medications used for depression, cancer, hypertension, and heart problems are some!

Robotic Hair Transplants

 
You never thought that a robot would be doing any type of surgery. Well the time is here! So maybe the robot doesn’t do it all on his own, Dr. Mark Bishara maneuvers the Artas Robot to help get you the best quality follicular units. The Artas Robot is fairly new it was introduced to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons in 2008 and in 2011 it was cleared by the FDA! It is safe and reliable.
 
 

How it works!

 
Your probably wondering how a hair transplant is performed as it sounds like a lot of work. Well its not, Hair transplantation has gotten easier and faster with the help of the artas robot. On the day of your procedure you have an option of shaving your head or only the donor area from where the hair will be taken from (for men) women we will only shave the donor area leaving the rest of the hair to cover. Local anesthesia is used to minimize pain and discomfort along with valium to help relax. Once ready Dr. Mark Bishara will set the robot to begin the dissection part of the hair transplant procedure. The robot will begin dissecting as one of Dr. Bishara’s techs extracts the follicular units. Once completely extracted the follicular units are checked for quality and Dr. Mark Bishara begins making sites where there new hair will be planted. Dr. Bishara’s techs will then begin the planting process. After completing the planting of the follicular units post-op instructions will be reviewed to help you understand how to care for your new hair. Written instructions along with all of the supplies needed to care for your new hair will be provided. So you see its not as complicated as you thought it would the hardest part is always coming in for the initial consultation. After that everything is just a sit back and getting it done!

Stress!

 
Physical trauma such as surgeries, illnesses, automobile accidents, pregnancy, and emotional stress can cause hair loss. Don’t worry, situations as such only cause hair loss temporarily. Having such physical trauma causes the your hair to go in a state of shock. As your body begins to heal and recover the hair lost will begin to grow back. As for emotional stress prevent having anxiety and overthinking, exercising and therapy can be great support.  Even the infamous El Chapo has experienced this… read more, https://latino.foxnews.com/latino/news/2016/08/08/imprisoned-drug-lord-joaquin-el-chapo-guzman-going-bald-out-stress-lawyer-says/
 

Vitamin A and Protein

 
Sometimes we see as taking more than needed vitamin supplements is doing our body good. Vitamin A containing supplements can trigger hair loss. Keep in mind that the daily dose of Vitamin A is 5,000 IU for adults. Lack of protein in ones diet can also shut down hair growth. Usually hair loss begins 2 to 3 months after protein intake drops. Controlling intake amounts of vitamin A and making sure your getting protein in will solve the issue.
 

Male Pattern Baldness or Heredity?

 
Both! Male pattern baldness is caused by a mixture of genes and hormones. MPB (male pattern baldness) follows a pattern in which hair is lost at the temples. Hair loss in women is known as androgenic or androgenetic alopecia. Women don’t usually have a receding hairline like men do. Women will have noticeable hair loss or thinning at the part. Both women and men benefit from minoxidil or rogaine to help grow and maintain the existing hair. Hair transplantation and PRP treatments are also and option.
 

Hypothyroidism

 
Having an underactive thyroid gland can cause hair loss as well. Your thyroid gland produces hormones that interact with your metabolism and growth. When it is not producing enough hormones it affects your hair causing it to fall out. Taking synthetic thyroid medication and getting thyroid levels to normal should take care of the issue.
 

Alopecia Areata

 
Alopecia Areata is a result of an overactive immune system. As our immune system is going it targets our hair as a foreign object and attacks causing hair loss in round patches through out the scalp. Steroid injections and romaine are the go to’s when treating alopecia areata.
 

Hair Styling

 
Over styling our hair with tight braids, ponytails or using products such as hot oils or relaxers can hurt our hair. Doing these types of treatments or the way we style our hair can cause root damage causing your hair to be lost permanently. Limiting the amount of use of these products or hair styles will help us keep our hair longer. Avoid using heat products to once a week if possible.
