Specializing in Hair Transplants for Men

Society has always expected men to be emotionally strong and impervious to self-doubt, anxiety and insecurity about their ability to achieve their goals. But experiencing hair loss can have an effect that’s more demoralizing than most care to admit. You have the right to pursue an appearance that makes you feel better about yourself and your place in the world. When performed by a skilled, conscientious surgeon, a hair transplant procedure can restore your self-confidence as well as your hair. Today’s hair restoration techniques are so refined and results so natural-looking that most people can’t tell if someone has had a hair transplant.

Hair transplant surgery for men includes a wide range of options that need to be navigated by an experienced hair restoration surgeon in order to achieve the best result – both short-term and long-term. Dr. Marco Barusco – founder and Chief Medical Officer of Tempus Hair Restoration – is an award-winning board-certified hair transplant surgeon with more than 25 years dedicated exclusively to hair restoration. His extensive credentials include Assistant Professor of Surgery – University of Central Florida College of Medicine; Fellow of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS); Global Clinical Scholars Researcher, Harvard Medical School; and author of chapters for medical textbooks and clinical studies.

While there are many causes for hair loss on the scalp, those most common among men are genetic – specifically, androgenic alopecia, which is commonly known as male pattern hair loss – and traumatic, such as scarring from an accident and/or surgery. In both situations, finding the best hair transplant clinic for men is essential to achieving the desirable look of healthy natural growth.

Dr. Barusco has been at the forefront of advanced hair restoration procedures, having developed such techniques as the groundbreaking No-Shave FUE. Short for follicular unit excision, the no-shave FUE completely conceals harvested donor sites immediately, allowing you to resume your regular activities with virtually no evidence of the procedure.

Going one step beyond the No-Shave FUE is the Long-Hair FUE. It is also known as the “preview” Long-Hair FUE because it gives the patient a preview of what the ultimate result will be. Dr. Barusco is one of only a few doctors in the world with the experience and skill to perform this technique.

Man Looking at Hair Loss

Dr. Barusco also performs the following hair transplant procedures:

Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) In this procedure, follicular units (hair grafts) in groupings of one, two or three hairs are individually extracted from the back of the head (donor area) using small circular punch blades instead of a scalpel. The grafts are then transplanted to the thinning or balding areas of the scalp. Once the desired number of grafts are obtained, the donor sites are left to heal without suturing. The resulting scars are not readily visible and are easily concealed even by very short hair.

Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) Also known as the “strip” method, the FUT procedure has undergone refinements over the years so that the only evidence is a pencil-line linear scar easily concealed by hair – even at a shorter length. Although many hair transplant practices encourage patients toward the FUE, there are circumstances in which the FUT will produce the more successful outcome.

Combination FUE and FUT This technique covers large areas of baldness in a single surgery. Patients with advanced hair loss are typically required to undergo multiple hair transplant procedures to obtain coverage of their entire bald scalp – having to wait one year or more between procedures. This allows patients to achieve their ultimate goal sooner, with one procedure versus many.

Express Yourself with a Beard Transplant

In the case of facial hair, the motivation for a beard transplant is different than restoring hair to a balding scalp. Instead of hair loss being the issue, it’s a matter of the hair’s failure to grow enough to produce a full beard – resulting in a patchy appearance. A beard transplant can also be useful in concealing facial scars, as hair can’t grow in scar tissue.

For facial hair transplants, the surgeon’s technical skill must also be matched by a strong aesthetic sense in order to select hairs from the right portion of the scalp – typically the sides and back of the head, where the hair most closely matches the texture of facial hair – and placing each hair follicle at the proper angle and direction to achieve the effect of natural growth. Dr. Barusco has helped numerous men get the beard they want to fully express their self-image to the world – be it hip, intellectual, rugged or edgy.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a hair transplant varies based upon the extent of hair loss, number of grafts needed, and the procedure used. At Tempus Hair Restoration, pricing is determined only after Dr. Marco Barusco conducts a one-on-one consultation with the prospective patient. During this consultation, he will diagnose the cause of your hair loss, discuss your hair restoration goals with you, and propose a procedure designed to achieve the best possible long-term outcome. Because each person is different, pricing will be tailored to the individual patient.

For those who are appropriate candidates, a hair transplant can be an option for women experiencing hair loss. Although women can be genetically predisposed to androgenetic alopecia (AGA)—also known as male pattern baldness—they rarely go completely bald. A common cause of female hair loss is traction alopecia, which results from long-term damage to hair follicles by constant tension on the hair. Dr. Marco Barusco evaluates each patient’s cause of hair loss, medical history, and long-term expectations in determining whether surgery, non-surgical treatment, or a combination is the most suitable option.

Yes. Transplanted hair follicles are generally long-lasting and will continue to grow for a lifetime. However, the surrounding native hair may continue to thin, which can impact overall appearance over time. To prevent this, Dr. Marco Barusco anticipates each patient’s future hair loss and carefully plans the selection and placement of donor hair to preserve an adequate amount for subsequent transplants. Medical treatments such as finasteride and minoxidil may also be prescribed to postpone or prevent further loss of native hair.

Follicular Unit Transplantation—commonly known as FUT—is a technique that involves removing a strip of tissue containing donor hair from the back of the head, which is then carefully dissected into individual follicular unit grafts that are transplanted into balding areas of the scalp. When performed by an experienced, skilled surgeon, it leaves a pencil-line linear scar that is easily concealed by hair—even at a shorter length. Dr. Marco Barusco may recommend the FUT when it is better suited to the patient’s long-term goals and donor area characteristics.

Follicular Unit Excision—commonly known as FUE—is a technique that involves removing individual follicular units from the donor area using small circular punch blades instead of a scalpel. These follicular units are then transplanted into balding areas of the scalp. The FUE requires no sutures; resulting scars are not readily visible and are easily concealed even by very short hair. The No-Shave FUE developed by Dr. Marco Barusco is the same procedure, with the difference being that the donor area is not shaved before surgery—making the procedure virtually undetectable during recovery. The option that Dr. Barusco recommends will depend on the patient’s long-term goals and donor area characteristics.

A facial hair transplant is designed to fill in areas of sparse or patchy growth in beards, mustaches, sideburns and eyebrows. As with a scalp hair transplant, hair is harvested from the donor areas, but usually further down toward the neck, where the quality is closer to that of facial hair. Achieving a result that looks like natural growth requires the technical skill and aesthetic sense of an experienced surgeon in positioning the hair follicles correctly. Cost depends upon the size of the treatment area and number of grafts required. Dr. Marco Barusco evaluates each patient individually to determine the most appropriate approach.

Factors that determine whether a potential patient is a good candidate for a hair transplant procedure includes the availability and quality of donor hair, current pattern of hair loss, overall health, medical history, and hair restoration goals. Dr. Marco Barusco personally evaluates all of these factors before recommending surgery or medical treatment.
