Choosing an Experienced Surgeon for Hair Trauma Cases

Last week Dr. Barusco was honored to help treat a 12-year-old patient with a large scalp injury. It was a very challenging case but with his experience coupled with the expertise shown by Tempus Hair Restoration’s surgical team, they were able to help the process for the patient and his parents go as best as possible.

Dr. Barusco is not just a hair restoration specialist. As a board certified surgeon, he has a strong background in performing complicated procedures that hide scars and other injuries such as this one performed last week. Dr. B also understands the impact of past trauma and applies the utmost caution and care to your treatment. When there is traumatic hair loss, it’s important to find the most skilled surgeon because there may not be much hair to work with. Preserving every strand is so important.

Staying up-to-date with the latest industry news and breakthroughs that could influence treatment for hair loss due to head trauma, Dr. Barusco personally performs every procedure himself. He gives his undivided attention and does not treat multiple patients at a time. Additionally, he is supported by his surgical team that has been working together for over 12 years!

Being the only practice in Florida to offer consultations in English, Spanish and Portuguese, Tempus Hair Restoration has become known internationally. Dr. Barusco is a Diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and a respected educator who has been invited to lecture all over the world. Dr. Barusco has even trained many other successful hair transplant surgeons over the years in the art of delivering natural results. Some hair transplant doctors and their staff in the Central Florida area are even patients of Dr. Barusco.

If you or someone you know has had a head trauma that has affected the growth of hair, please send them for a complimentary consultation with Dr. Barusco today.

American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery Awards Dr. Barusco

When you look up the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery online and select the “About Us” tab the first thing that pops up is “Commitment to Hair Restoration Excellence and Safety”. Tempus Hair Restoration is proud to not only be members of this great organization but our very own Dr. Marco Barusco was recently rewarded with a beautiful crystal plaque from the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery. He is finishing up his year as their President. “It was been a great honor to have been entrusted with this responsibility. Me and my team are looking forward to continuing to be involved with this great institution,” said Dr. Barusco.

(1) The need for the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS) first surfaced in June 1995 at a Hair Replacement Surgery Seminar in Chicago. A group of speakers began discussing the need for a certifying board in hair replacement surgery. The discussion during the subsequent twelve months became more resolute as the press began to focus on hair replacement surgery, due to the many sensational stories on television and in print. In 1996, the American Hair Loss Council (AHLC) invited all of the specialty groups whose physicians performed hair restoration surgery to participate in a meeting to discuss the development of a Board Certification process for hair restoration surgery. The presidents of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery were each invited to send three representatives to a meeting to discuss the development of a certification process.

Now with multiple examinations administered, the ABHRS exam stands as the ONLY psychometrically and statistically validated examination dedicated to the specialty of hair restoration surgery.

We recommend that when choosing your surgeon for your hair replacement procedures that you see if they are involved with the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery.

Things to Keep In Mind

If you or a loved one is experiencing hair loss after trauma to your head, be sure to do your research. Don’t trust just any hair restoration clinic. Make sure there is a surgeon performing the procedure. Often other practices use non-medically trained technicians to perform the procedures. You don’t want that! You need a medical professional’s expertise to avoid any potential harm to sensitive areas that may still be healing. You also need a surgeon who understands your delicate needs. Many times Dr. Barusco will request additional testing to be sure you’re body is ready for the procedure.

So many patients with special needs place their trust in Tempus Hair Restoration because Dr. Barusco personally performs every procedure himself. He gives you his undivided attention and does not treat multiple patients at a time. He is supported by a surgical team that has been working together for over 12 years, so you get the care of professionals who have treated many patients with similar needs. We are also the only practice in Florida to offer consultations in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

So if you have experienced trauma to your head and are looking around for hair restoration, look into scheduling a free consultation with Dr. Barusco with Tempus Hair Restoration. You’ll be glad you did your research and put your head in Dr. B’s hands!
