Our hair transplant practice is very different:
Each patient is treated as a unique individual. Dr. Memar personally
conducts each consultation, and performs each hair transplant procedure. The
result from this approach is extremely high patient satisfaction and an
international reputation
for excellence.

What drives us, quite simply, is excellence. We
strive to have all of our patients be satisfied with their hair transplant
results and try very hard to match the realistic expectations of our
patients with what we can realistically achieve.
Hair transplantation is simply the transferring
of hair from a "permanent" area of the scalp to another area in which hair
has fallen out due to heredity. In most men and women who bald (or thin out)
on the top of their head, the hair on the back and sides of their head is
relatively thick and destined to remain there for the rest of their lives.
This "permanent" hair is harvested by painlessly removing narrow "strips" of
hair, which are then meticulously cut up under magnification to produce
hundreds of tiny hair grafts of 1-6 hairs each.
By middle age (40’s and 50’s), approximately
half of all men have developed some degree of Male Pattern Baldness. It is
caused by heredity, which means that each man’s genes determine before his
birth which hairs are to live for a lifetime and which are to prematurely
die and fall out.
In hair transplantation, these newly created
tiny grafts of "permanent" hair are distributed artistically over the
balding scalp according to a carefully planned pattern. These newly
transferred hairs quickly take root and, after a short resting period of
three months, grow – and keep on growing for the rest of your life.
To create great hair transplant results, a good
amount of artistic ability is necessary on the part of the surgeon. He must
have a "feel" for how to aesthetically create natural, feathered gradients
of hair that are totally undetectable to those who will encounter that
patient in the years to come.
After this new hair grows out, it can be
washed, cut, or styled in whatever way you like. There is nothing fragile
about transplanted hair. It can even be permed or colored. A person with a
transplanted head of hair can sleep, swim, ski – in other words – do
everything they ever did before, knowing that once again they have their
own hair back again and no one will know
