We’re incredibly grateful to our partners for taking the time to feature our approach and share what we care so deeply about when it comes to hair restoration. This piece...
Our doctors develop personalized hair loss treatment plans for each patient, considering their unique pattern and extent of hair loss. We are skilled in performing surgeries on areas that already have hair, where we preserve the existing hair while implanting new grafts. This approach allows patients to keep their current hairstyle and helps the new hair blend seamlessly for a natural, enduring result.
At Unger Medical, we specialize in advanced hair restoration solutions, offering both Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) techniques. Methods are selected based on your specific hair loss needs, providing natural and enduring results. Whether you aim to enhance hair density, restore thinning areas, or redefine your hairline, our team is here to help you achieve your desired outcomes.
We offer Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, a groundbreaking non-surgical treatment, designed to stimulate hair growth using your own blood-derived growth factors. This innovative approach promotes healing and enhances the health of hair follicles, leading to thicker, fuller hair. Ideal for patients experiencing thinning hair or hair loss, PRP therapy complements other hair restoration strategies to optimize overall results.
We place a strong emphasis on education within the practice, making sure that each patient is fully informed about the causes of their hair loss, the various treatment options available, and what to expect during and after the procedure. Our Surgeons bring academic expertise and provide patients with detailed discussions on the science behind hair restoration techniques and the rationale behind each personalized treatment plan. By fostering an open dialogue and encouraging questions, we work to empower patients to take an active role in their treatment journey, aligning their decisions with personal health goals and expectations.
Our commitment to holistic wellness in hair restoration is evident in our comprehensive approach, which goes beyond traditional treatments. Recognizing the importance of a supportive environment, we offer a variety of non-surgical solutions designed to enhance each patient’s journey towards hair recovery. This commitment allows for each individual receives personalized care that integrates innovative and traditional methods, aimed at achieving the best possible health and aesthetic results.
At Unger Medical, we believe in a truly personalized approach to hair restoration. That’s why we utilize advanced dermoscopy evaluation for every patient. This non-invasive technology allows us to magnify and analyze your scalp in detail, going beyond the surface to identify underlying conditions and specific patterns of hair loss. We can also utilize the tricho test to analyze DNA and identify genetic markers or predispositions that may be contributing to hair loss. These in-depth analyses ensure the most accurate diagnosis and a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and hair loss stage, maximizing your chances of successful, natural-looking results.

The results from a hair transplant are long lasting. The patient, over their lifetime, will always have more hair than they otherwise would have had. That being said, the pre-existing hair in the region will continue to thin and – at a much slower rate – so will the transplanted hair. The hair that is transplanted is taken from a region of the scalp much less affected by the process of androgenetic hair loss. Thus those hairs will shed at a rate much slower than those naturally occurring in the affected region. This is the main reason why hair transplants have been effective in treating androgenetic hair loss. It is important to try to slow this future loss with adjuvant therapy, which may include medical therapy, hormone therapy or PRP.
