Hair Restoration Center Houston Now Performs Follicular Unit Extraction


When someone is interested in pursuing a significant hair loss treatment plan, the team at Hair Restoration Center can help.

Recently, Hair Restoration Center has announced a new procedure known as follicular unit extraction that can benefit patients and offers improved results.

What Is Follicular Unit Extraction? 

Through follicular unit extraction, Dr. Carlos Puig and his team at the Hair Restoration Center in Houston will extract individual hair follicles from one area of the patient’s body, such as the arm or the leg,

These units are then transplanted into the scalp so that the patient’s own natural hair can grow in place. These are very small extractions, so no stitches are required. While this is considered surgery, it is a limited surgery with very quick healing time.

Dr. Carlos Puig has been helping Houston area residents overcome their follicular challenges for many years. In fact, he has over 40 years of experience with hair restoration services.

The follicular unit extraction is just one of many treatment options that he has experience with. During an initial consultation with a new patient, he will help the patient to review all of the treatment options and to find a treatment that is most suitable for the patient’s budget, recovery time expectations, lifestyle and more. The cause of the baldness or hair loss is also a factor that is considered when selecting a treatment.

Over the years, Dr. Carlos Puig and his team at Hair Restoration in Houston have worked hard to help countless patients with their hair loss issues, and the team’s efforts have elicited fabulous results in many.

Those who are struggling with hair loss and who are looking for an effective solution should contact Hair Restoration to schedule an initial appointment. Through this initial appointment, they can learn more about the effective treatment options available to them.

Hair loss can occur in both men and women, and it can be caused by many things. For example, being stressed out or following an unhealthy lifestyle can cause the follicles to stop functioning properly.

Often, when these factors are reversed, new hair growth will begin again. In other cases, hair loss is caused by medications or medical treatments, a health condition, or other factors, and in some cases these causes can result in permanent hair loss. Hair transplants are one option available to these individuals, but Dr. Carlos Puig and his team now offer a stitch-less solution through follicular unit extraction.
