Dr. Alan J. Bauman discussed new technology and trends at the European Masters in Aesthetic & Anti-Aging Medicine conference in Paris. <\/p>\n
Boca Raton, Florida (PRWEB) November 15, 2012 <\/p>\n
Among Baumans several presentations, FUE Mega Sessions: Pearls and Pitfalls in Achieving Maximum Graft Yield Using Minimally Invasive Hair Transplant and Harvesting Methods, and FUE Trends: The Minimally Invasive Hair Transplant Revolution, were featured as part of the EMAAs 2nd International Hair Surgery Master Course (IHSMC), hosted by renowned hair transplant surgeon Dr. Pierre Bouhanna. Along with FUE technology, Bauman, who is a board-certified hair restoration surgeon, discussed mechanisms of low-level laser therapy including the latest at-home breakthrough laser devices. Bauman was one of the first US physicians to use laser therapy as an integral part of a multi-therapy approach to treating hair loss and thinning for both male and female patients. The new LaserCap is a portable, wearable laser unit that contains 224 laser diodes to stimulate weak and thinning follicles at the cellular level and improve blood flow in order to help patients achieve thicker, fuller healthier looking hair. The Nutreve personal laser is another new cordless and rechargeable consumer device with 35 true laser diodes. <\/p>\n
Minimally-invasive NeoGraft FUE hair transplantation and low level laser devices like LaserCap are the absolute cutting-edge of hair loss treatments and its exciting to present those options to the progressive doctors in the field, said Dr. Bauman, who is founder and medical director of the Bauman Medical Group in Boca Raton. The Paris EMAA conference was a unique opportunity to share these new treatments and successes with a global audience of colleagues. This allows us the chance to both teach and learn from each other to better help our hair loss patients, while at the same time, raise awareness about the advanced new treatments and techniques available. <\/p>\n

NeoGraft FUE: <\/p>\n
FUE is a less-invasive harvesting of hair follicles and follicular units individually; eliminating the linear or strip harvest approach. The highly delicate and technically challenging FUE procedure has been available for several years, but prior to the advent of mechanical instruments like NeoGraft, it was difficult for hair transplant surgeons to accurately and efficiently perform large minimally-invasive hair transplant sessions. <\/p>\n
The FDA-cleared NeoGraft (also known as the S.A.F.E.R. device by Medicamat in Europe and Asia) is a dramatic advancement over previous manual FUE methods which were more time consuming and less accurate. NeoGraft\/S.A.F.E.R. allows surgeons to harvest and transplant large numbers of hair follicles in considerably less time for patients and without the tell-tale linear scar. Because recovery from NeoGraft FUE is faster, more comfortable and less restrictive, most people are back to their regular routines - including athletic workouts - within just a few days. <\/p>\n
FUE is an extremely effective surgical option for patients that allows for a quicker, more comfortable recovery, less post-op activity restrictions, as well as avoiding the tell-tale linear scar associated with traditional linear strip-harvest hair transplants, explained Bauman. As we showed in our lectures, it takes meticulous preparation and teamwork to transplant more than 3,000 follicular units in a Mega-FUE transplant session. <\/p>\n
According to ISHRS statistics, FUE surgeries have risen in demand dramatically over the past several years around the world and large Mega-FUE sessions will likely be the next trend. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
