Understanding Your Hair Loss Treatment Options
Individuals who experience hair loss such as androgenetic alopecia have several alternatives to manage this condition. Our practice uses grafts (follicular unit extraction and transplantation) in combination with medical treatments. Our methods are safe, produce maximum aesthetic results, and are of reasonable cost. Another option is to do nothing and accept the baldness. The major advantage to this approach is avoiding the time commitment, inconvenience, and expense of pursuing all other treatment alternatives. However, if you don't want to accept the baldness, you can choose from a wide range of hair loss treatment options at our facilities in Manhattan, NYC, and communities throughout greater NYC.
