Stem Cells and Hair Loss

In last month’s blog we talked about Platelet Rich Plasma treatments and how PRP utilizes your own stem cells to enhance and restore your hair. PRP is an incredible treatment and a fantastic medical breakthrough, but you may be wondering “what do stem cells have to do with hair loss?”
A scientific study in Japan discovered that “hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis.” Let’s break down what that means. The way that your hair grows and replaces itself is through stem cells continually dividing and creating new hair follicle stem cells. What the Japanese study found is that these stem cells age, deteriorate, and eventually fall apart. One researcher, Emi Nishimura from Tokyo Medical and Dental University, noted that the research showed that “hair follicle stem cells change their fate to be eliminated from the skin in response to DNA damage. The resultant depletion of stem cell pools miniaturization of these aged hair follicles.” This means that over time the stem cells wither away due to damage from sun exposure, chemical exposure etc.

This further illustrates why PRP is such a valuable tool in the hair restoration process. The redistribution of newly introduced stem cells along with A-Cell’s ability to work at the cellular level to repair/remodel damaged tissues and stimulate adult stem cells is exactly what your hair needs to make a comeback. This isn’t to say that PRP is a catchall solution to hair loss. Adding PRP treatments to Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ or ARTAS™ Robotic FUE can decrease your recovery time and increase the growth of your transplantation. Each case of hair loss is different and there are different solutions for different people. PAI Medical Group of Indiana has every proven solution to hair loss and we are so confident that we can find a solution to your specific hair loss that we even guarantee our results. To find out what is causing your hair loss and which solution is best for you, call PAI today to schedule a free and private consultation at 888-724-5129 or visit us online at WeGrowHairIndy.com!

PRP at PAI

One of the best aspects of PAI Medical Group of Indiana is that we are always looking for the next big thing in hair restoration. We will always provide the best cutting-edge solutions for your hair loss. What is the newest technology for hair restoration? PRP, or Platelet Rich Plasma, is the latest quick, safe, and affordable option for restoring your hair.

PRP is a great option for any stage of hair loss. You can utilize it to thicken and reinforce the hair you’ve got, or have PRP treatments done after you have a Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ or ARTAS™ Robotic FUE hair transplantation done to speed up growth.

How does PRP work? A small amount of blood is drawn and then placed in a centrifuge where the growth enhancing plasma is separated from the blood. That Platelet Rich Plasma is then administered to the areas that need restoring. Its that simple.

Like any technology PRP is constantly evolving as new discoveries are made. We will always give you the most up to date advanced options of PRP. At PAI we use an FDA approved centrifuge, add ACell* to our PRP treatments. ACell’s MatriStem* technology works at the cellular level to repair damaged tissues. It stimulates the adult stem cells in the damaged tissues, increasing the regenerative rate, thereby creating higher quality hair growth. In addition to this we offer 5x the concentration of traditional PRP injections, as well as a state of the art chiller to ensure the greatest level of comfort for you, the patient.
*As of June 1, 2021, ACell is no longer used in conjunction with PRP (Platelet Rich Plamsa).

PRP technology is so good that our Clinic Director Darren Andrews had it done himself. Check out his video below!

ARTAS® Robotic FUE Procedure Gives Back Client’s Confidence

PAI Medical Group Indiana is offering the latest in hair restoration with the ARTAS® Robotic Hair Transplantation! Using state-of the-art technology with robotics, the process is minimally invasive, virtually pain-free and the results are completely natural looking, with no linear scarring or stitches. The reason behind the growing popularity of this procedure is backed by the noticeable results our patients see after undergoing the procedure. We’re following Alex’s hair restoration journey step-by-step as he undergoes the ARTAS® Robotic FUE Procedure, which you can watch by clicking here.

Alex decided to undergo the ARTAS® Robotic FUE Procedure at PAI because he was impressed by the technology used and how accurate the ARTAS® Robotic System was compared to other technologies. In the video, Alex explains that he was ready to make a change and do something about his hair loss. After three years of using PAI Medical Group Indiana as a source for information on hair restoration, with no pressure to commit, he finally decided that PAI would be the one to help him gain his hair, and his confidence, back.

The PAI Clinic Director Darren Andrews explains Alex’s hair loss situation and how the ARTAS® FUE Procedure will correct it to give him his desired hairline. Our highly-trained surgeon and technicians trace the donor line where the permanent hairs will be harvested from, color his gray areas and slightly shave Alex’s head to help the ARTAS® Robotic System better identify the hairs to be harvested. It’s amazing to see the system in action as it identifies and harvests each hair to be used for transplantation. A team of our highly skilled technicians meticulously places the transplanted hairs back into the thinning areas of Alex’s scalp to match his desired hairline.

The day after his procedure, Alex is all smiles as the technician in charge of his hair wash and our other staff compliment him on how good his hair looks. The surgeon who helped perform the procedure says his hair “can’t look any better than that”. Everyone is thoroughly impressed by Alex’s results. The staff’s smiles are a testament to the friendly and professional atmosphere of PAI Medical Group Indiana. A technician carefully washes his hair and answers Alex’s questions about recovery. In the video, Darren talks with Alex who “feels great” just one day after his procedure and explains how the advance technology of the ARTAS® was able to produce Alex’s clean hairline. Alex states how comfortable he felt with the doctors and medical team the day of his procedure and felt that each one was really looking to take care of his needs all day. Darren discusses Alex’s personalized treatment plan to boost his recovery and promote hair growth with Laser Hair Therapy and other medications.

Ten days after Alex’s ARTAS® FUE Procedure, we can see that he is recovering nicely. The ARTAS® FUE procedure is so minimally invasive that there is virtually no scarring. Be sure to stay tuned to Alex’s hair growth as we continue to follow his post-procedure results.

PAI Medical Group Indiana our mission is to stay ahead with new cutting-edge technology and ensure the comfort of our patients. You can see our many other client’s stories who have undergone the ARTAS® Robotic Hair Transplant Procedure or any other of our surgical and non-surgical hair restoration solutions.

Men's Health

From 30 Australian Mo Bros in 2003 to over 5 million Mo Bros and Mo Sistas worldwide, the Movember Foundation has helped change the face of men’s health. The Movember Foundation has funded over 1,000 programs dedicated to tackling some of the biggest health issues faced by men – prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity.

Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide, with more than 1.1 million cases recorded in 2012. One in seven men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime and in 2015, an estimated 220,800 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer. Prostate cancer occurs when some of the cells in the prostate reproduce far more rapidly than normal, resulting in a tumor. Age, family history, and ethnicity play a big factor in developing this disease and unfortunately, most prostate cancers develop without men experiencing any symptoms in the early stages. If you’re concerned about your risks, you can take two  common tests for initial detection, the Digital Rectal Exam (DRE) and the PSA blood test (PSA), depending on the results of those tests you may be referred to a specialist for a biopsy.

Testicular Cancer
The rate of men diagnosed with testicular cancer has doubled in the last 50 years.  About 8,430 new cases of testicular cancer are diagnosed in men each year and this cancer is most common in young men aged 15 - 34 years. Testicular cancer starts as an abnormal growth or tumor that develops in one or both testicles. Secondary testicular tumors are caused by cancerous cells that have spread to the testicles from other parts of the body. These cancers are much rarer than the previous forms of testicular cancer. The exact cause of testicular cancer is unknown, however it’s believed that factors such as family history and down syndrome are thought to increase the risk of testicular cancer. Just like prostate cancer, many men may experience few or no symptoms of testicular cancer so it’s important to do regular self-examinations. If you have any concerns, it’s  important that you contact your doctor since this cancer can be effectively treated, and potentially cured, if diagnosed and treated early.

Mental Health
On average 87 men each day take their life by suicide in the USA and the highest rate of depression is in men aged 40 – 59. While the highest rate of depression is typically in older men anyone, of an age, can be affected by poor mental health. Many men find it very difficult to talk about their problems because many men follow the stereotype that men are strong and silent and don’t express their emotions or ask for help about what they’re feeling. It’s important to be proactive about your mental health, be aware of risk factors and symptoms, such as family history of mental health problems, drug and alcohol use, or stressful life events. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health problem, it’s important to seek help from a friend, family member, doctor, or even someone on a support line, just remember someone is always available to listen.

Physical Inactivity
Physical inactivity is one of the biggest health issues faced by men. Physical inactivity is the fourth leading risk factor for global mortality and approximately 3.2 million deaths each year are  due to insufficient physical activity. Physical inactivity may seem like a small issues compared to prostate and testicular cancer or even mental health issues but being physically inactive is a big deal. Especially because people who live active lifestyles help reduce their risk of developing these cancers and improve their physical and mental health. By just getting 30 minutes of exercise every day you can improve your mood and significantly reduce the health risks of a sedentary lifestyle.

Just like the countless men helped by the Movember Foundation, PAI Medical Group is dedicated to helping the millions of men affected by hair loss. Taking the first step to restoring your confidence after hair loss is always the most difficult, so we’re here to help. From your personal, one-on-one consultation with PAI Medical Indiana hair transplant experts, to your hair transplant procedure and long after, we’ll ensure that you remain comfortable and engaged throughout the process.

Hair Loss Education

If you are losing your hair, it can be an intimidating process looking at all of the different causes and treatment options. At PAI Medical Group, we want to make the process as simple as possible, and believe it is important to get educated about different reasons for hair loss and options available to you. PAI Medical Group will be here to help you every step of the way!

Causes of Hair Loss

Genetics- Hereditary hair loss is the most common form of hair loss, especially in men. Androgenetic alopecia, also known as male pattern baldness/female pattern baldness is caused by genetically predisposed hair follicles. Your individual genetic makeup that can come from either side of the family is the core contributor that leads to an interruption in normal hair growth.

Hormones- The two hormones that can contribute to hair loss in both genders are testosterone and dyhydrotestosterone (DHT).

Time- Simply, with age comes a higher risk of hair loss. Aging and naturally thinning hair are intertwined in many ways, and the reality of advancing age means many people will eventually see signs of thinning hair.

Physical Stress- Tension on the hair can also lead to permanent hair loss. This particular hair loss is directly tied to prolonged tension of the hair – cornrows, tight braiding, hair extensions, etc. – and can lead to long-term hair loss more often than people realize.

Psychological Effects of Hair Loss
Loss of hair can affect more than just your appearance, but how you feel internally. Psychological effects of hair loss are common in both men and women. Studies have shown that hair loss can invoke emotional trauma, stress and anxiety. It’s important to know that you don’t have to just accept your thinning hair, instead, speak to a hair loss expert at PAI.

In addition to the psychological responses to hair loss, many patients are sincerely worried about their appearance and overall attractiveness. It’s not uncommon for both men and women to admit that their hair loss affects them both personally and professionally, an altogether unpleasant psychological occurrence directly attributed to deflated self-esteem.

More and more people are beginning to take control of their thinning hair by choosing hair restoration treatments. A thorough, professional consultation is your best option for restoring lost or thinning hair.

At PAI Medical Group of Indiana, we take great pride in walking each of our potential patients through the entire hair restoration process. Call us at 1- (888) 724-5129 to schedule your free consultation and be on your way to a healthier, fuller head of hair.

Platelet Rich Plasma at PAI

PAI Medical Group is proud to offer a new hair loss solution, Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP. Platelet Rich Plasma therapy is a new safe non-surgical option for patients. PRP is an in-office procedure that requires little to no recovery time and can be done in less than one hour.

How Does PRP Work?
PRP therapy extracts nutrient rich plasma from the patient’s own blood and then combines it with A-cells (patient's own stem cells) to promote hair growth. ACell’s MatriStem technology (an FDA approved medical device) works at the cellular level to repair and remodel damaged tissues. When A-Cells are placed into a surgical site or wound, they help repair and remodel damaged tissues. A-cells have been used for a variety of different surgical procedures but when used in the scalp they help stimulate dormant follicular tissues, which may improve and stimulate hair growth. PRP is full of growth factors that promote rapid angiogenesis and localized cell growth. By using PRP and A-Cells, this combination causes tiny hair follicles to become larger which helps some men and women grow thicker, fuller, and healthier hair.    
 
ACell + PRP has also regrown hair in alopecia areata, eyebrow hypotrichosis and other patient cases with non-hereditary hair loss (http://www.wegrowhair.com/hair-transplant-solutions/platelet-rich-plasma-therapy/) . Results may start to become noticeable in about 90 days and full results can take up to a year. This procedure can be used alone or safely combined with other hair therapies such as transplantation, low-level laser therapy or topical and oral treatments.

To learn more about this revolutionary hair restoration procedure, give PAI a call at (888) 724-5129 or go online at WeGrowHairIndy.com and schedule your FREE consultation today!

The PAI Difference

PAI Medical Group of Indiana does more than just hair transplants. We develop a customized hair treatment plan that fits your needs and expectations. PAI Medical leads the industry in providing the best and most up to date technology to its patients. Our commitment is to continuously improve our practice as a full service hair restoration center and to help as many people as possible who are struggling with hair loss. Here's why so many people choose PAI.

Hair Transplants

At PAI Medical Group, we have a trademarked a transplant procedure called Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™. This procedure maximizes results by transplanting three times more hair per procedure. Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ is an outpatient procedure that uses a blend of different sized hair groupings or grafts that are moved, or redistributed according to the natural way in which they exist. This creates a natural hairline that is both age and gender specific.

In 2014, PAI Medical Group introduced ARTAS™ – Hair Transplant System using a robotic FUE system. PAI Medical Group is the only ARTAS™ provider in Indiana and one of only a few clinics in the nation. The ARTAS™ system used Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), a type of harvesting technique that decreases recovery time and linear scarring often associated with older strip transplant techniques. Also, unlike older techniques, no stitches are required. Patients who prefer to wear their hair very short often prefer the FUE approach. For patients who want an FUE procedure can be sure that nothing beats ARTAS™ for its precision and results.

Low Level Light Laser Treatments (LLLT)

Low Light Laser Treatments (LLLT) are a safe, non-surgical option excellent for both men and women experiencing thinning hair. This treatment is approved by the FDA for the promotion of hair growth. These “soft” lasers stimulate hair follicles and increase the blood supply to the scalp. With laser hair therapy you can achieve thicker, fuller, shinier and healthier looking hair. Watch the video to see how Laser Hair Therapy works! https://vimeo.com/115183130

The PAI Difference

What sets PAI Medical Group apart from hair restoration clinics? We offer state-of-the-art treatments that can be combined to give patients the best possible results. Combining either Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ or ARTAS™ Hair Transplants with Low Level Light Laser Treatments will give you the most natural looking, healthy hair. When Low Level Light Laser Treatments are used after a hair transplant, it helps the healing process of both the donor area and transplanted follicles, and stimulates the growth of transplanted hair. This combination of treatments will not only help transplanted hairs successfully grow, but also improve the health of the rest of your hair and may stop the progression of hair loss.

As the leader in hair restoration and hair treatments PAI Medical offers treatments such as Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ and ARTAS™ FUE procedures for our patients seeking the very best in surgical hair restoration. For those looking for a non-surgical procedure LLLT is an option. We are also able to use both surgical and non-surgical procedures to give you the best possible results.

PAI Medical Group – The Latest Technology in Hair Restoration

PAI Medical Group of Indiana strives to provide our clients with the most advanced hair restoration technology. Less invasive Non-Surgical Solutions, such as Laser Hair Therapy (available at PAI) are becoming increasingly popular and PAI has decided to expand on this technology. We are proud to announce that our facility in Indianapolis will soon be providing patients with new advanced hair loss treatments — Platelet Rich Plasma and Micro Pigmentation.

Laser Hair Therapy

Low-level Laser Hair Therapy (LLLT) is a non-surgical solution for both men and women suffering from hair loss. These low-level lasers are “soft” lasers and do not have the thermal component to cut or burn. The FDA recently approved this type of treatment for the promotion of hair growth. It is safe for people with all skin and hair types.

Benefits of Laser Hair Therapy Include:

• Increased blood flow to the scalp based on microcirculation
• Increased nutrient supply to enhance hair growth
• Slowing down and stopping the progression of hair loss
• Repaired and improved hair shaft quality
• Relief of scalp conditions such as psoriasis and seborrhea
• Laser hair therapy can help you achieve thicker, fuller, shinier and healthier looking hair

Gunner, a +Q95 radio personality in Indianapolis went through Laser Hair Therapy Treatments at PAI (shown above). He started to notice his hair thinning so he came to PAI Medical Group to speak with one of our hair loss experts and begin LLLT treatments. Now he has a fuller head of hair that is much healthier. The LLLT process usually takes around a year to complete but you will start to see results before the year is over. This treatment is best for people who are in the early stages of hair loss.


Platelet Rich Plasma

Platelet Rich Plasma is a new hair loss treatment that is coming soon to PAI Medical Group of Indiana. During this procedure, a small amount of blood is taken from the patient’s arm. The Platelet Rich Plasma is separated from the blood and is activated. The activated platelet rich plasma is injected into the scalp containing growth factors. This treatment works by encouraging normalization of hair follicles. Bioactive proteins help with tissue repair and hair loss and growth factors activate and rejuvenate cells in the body.

Micro Pigmentation

Another new technology that is coming soon to PAI Medical Group is Micro Pigmentation. For this procedure, dermal pigments are selectively matched to the patient’s hair color to create a shadow effect resembling the appearance of short hair. The size of the pigments are matched to the size of the hairs. This technique can also be used on patients with longer hair to fill in the scalp creating the appearance of fuller hair.

These are just some of the ways PAI Medical Center can treat hair loss. Platelet Rich Plasma and Micro Pigmentation are new technologies coming to PAI Medical Center very soon! If you are losing your hair and think any of these treatments might be right for you, don’t hesitate to visit our website www.wegrowhairindy.com or call (888) 724-5129 for a free consultation.

Am I a good candidate for a hair transplant from PAI Medical Indiana?

Most people suffering from androgenetic alopecia or other common hair loss types are candidates for hair transplantation with PAI Medical Indiana. Hair loss candidacy essentially depends on three key elements:

• How much permanent hair you still have.
• The degree or severity of baldness or thinning you are experiencing relative to the amount of hair you still have.
• Your overall hair restoration goals and expectations – We place a high level of emphasis on a patient’s expectations, and an honest conversation regarding potential hair loss in the future and what you want to achieve long term with your hair transplant procedure is crucial.

Is there an ideal age to begin hair transplantation?

A commonly-debated subject among hair restoration surgeons, the ideal age range for hair transplantation isn’t as cut-and-dry as you might think. Research has shown transplanting in the early stages of hair loss could provide for easier concealment of hair loss, which would allow the patient to limit the appearance of thinning before it becomes noticeable. At PAI Medical Indiana, we always recommend a private consultation for all our prospective hair transplant patients, particularly patients under the age of 24. For patients that are a minor, we require the parent or guardian to be present during all consultations.

What is the difference between hair grafts and PAI Medical Levels?

A hair graft can contain anywhere from 1 to 10 hairs, generally speaking. A large number hair restoration clinics charge for hair transplants by the graft. The problem with this approach? Because the number of grafts is unique to each and every patient and every procedure, predicting a consistent range in order to provide accurate pricing is quite difficult, making it a bit of a mystery in many cases as to how much the final cost of your hair transplant will actually be. The PAI Medical Levels measure number of hairs, not hair grafts, and the general area to be covered in the procedure, which reduces confusion for the patient and allows us to offer more affordable transplant options.

How many hairs will be transplanted?

One graft does not equal one hair. Our hair restoration physicians will harvest hair grafts from 1-7 hairs, depending on the area experiencing hair loss. For example, 1,200 grafts would equal an average of 5,000 to 7,000 hairs. This range of evenly distributed hair grafts will produce a natural hairline with the ideal density and coverage.

How many sessions will I need to achieve results?

One of the many benefits of our Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ procedure is that we reduce the number of procedures by moving more hair in each procedure.  Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ allows up to twice the normal hair volume compared to traditional Follicular Unit hair transplants. So you're provided a much better value to meet your hair restoration goals, often in only 1 or 2 procedures.

How long after my hair transplant procedure will I begin to see hair growth?

Generally, hair growth occurs within 3-5 months after the hair transplant procedure. The number of new hairs will continue to increase for 12 months.

What type of post-operative care does PAI Medical provide?

We highly recommend a post-operative treatment program for all of our patients at PAI Medical Indiana. For more information on what you should expect after your hair transplant procedure, please review our hair restoration process.

How soon can I go back to work after the procedure? 

We recommend that activity in general is restricted during the first 24 hours after the procedure, as well as limiting physically demanding activities within the first 10 days, or until your sutures are removed. You can return to work within a day or two following your procedure depending on the level of strain your occupation requires, in addition to your overall comfort level following the procedure.

ARTAS® The Future of Hair Restoration at PAI

Over the past two decades, robotic surgery has become increasingly popular. Robotic systems have proven to excel when performing precise and repetitive surgical movements, while producing excellent results. Their less invasive techniques grant patients with faster procedures, decreased recovery time, and reduced pain. The benefits of robotics in this field are tough to ignore.

A team of engineers and physicians who specialize in image-guidance and surgical robotics created Restoration Robotics, Inc. Determined to create a system to assist hair transplantation, they developed The ARTAS® Robotic System. They are the first and only company involved in hair restoration robotics.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a relatively newer procedure in the world of hair restoration. It is a less invasive procedure, by physicians have not rapidly embraced it because it requires challenging specialized training. FUE demands the surgeon to accurately analyze follicle angle and direction in addition to skin type. As a result, the procedure will be slow and tedious.

The ARTAS® System is designed specifically to assist a surgeon performing the FUE procedure. The physician controls the computer-assisted arm that utilizes advanced digital imagery to harvest hair follicles. It analyzes the scalp and harvests the most viable follicles, thus the graft quality is extremely high. The system allows the physician to supply the patient with maximum results.
This is the latest technological advancement in the hair restoration industry. With this system, a physician with only a few hours of training can produce results as well as a physician with many years of experience. In addition, a physician using ARTAS® can complete a FUE procedure three times as fast and with higher quality grafts.

The less invasive procedure makes hair restoration much more attractive to those interested in a transplant; there is reduced recovery time, discomfort, and scarring and increased results. The system revolutionizes the entire hair restoration experience for both the patient and the physician.

As the leader in hair restoration and hair treatments PAI Medical has teamed up with Restoration Robotics to provide today’s most state-of-the-art hair transplant system to those in the Mid-West. As one of only 35 hair surgery centers in the world to offer ARTAS®, PAI Medical continues to lead the industry in providing the best and most up to date technology to its patients.

Will Your Hair Grow Back?

Each individual hair goes through a typical life cycle. Hair grows, falls, and regrows. The hair grows from the follicle, or root, underneath the skin. Each hair receives its nourishment from blood vessels at the base of the follicle. The four phases that make up the life cycle are the Anagen, Catagen, Telogen, and Exogen.

Hair Life Cycle

Anagen (Growing Phase)

This is the growing phase of the hair. It lasts about two to seven years, determining the length of the hair. A continuous division of cells in the follicle produces this growth by pushing new cells towards the surface.

Catagen (Transition Phase)

The growth of the hair is slowed and eventually stops. This short transitional period lasts about 10 days. The hair begins to retract from the follicle and migrate upward. The stop in growth signifies the death of the hair.

Telogen (Resting Phase)

The follicle remains inactive for a period of about three months. Having risen enough towards the surface, the hair is ready to fall out.

Exogen Phase (New Hair Phase)

The dormant hair sheds, while a new hair begins growth at the follicle. The cycle can then return to the Catagen phase.

On a person’s head there are an average of 100 to 150 thousand hair follicles. It is normal for 50 to 100 hairs to fall out daily. Hair loss and thinning occurs when the hair life cycle is disrupted. There are many conditions that can trigger hair loss such as metabolic imbalances, illness, medication, improper nutrition, etc. It is best to diagnose the problem in the preliminary stages to prevent further hair loss and increase effectiveness of hair restoration by coming to see one of the hair loss experts at PAI Medical Group of Indiana.

PAI offers many solutions to a variety of hair loss situations — from early stages of hair loss to later stages of balding. A few of the options at PAI include: Laser Hair Therapy, Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™, and The ARTAS® Robotic FUE HairTransplant System.

Option for Early Stages of Hair Loss: If you have thin, fine hair or are in the early-to-mid-stages of hair loss, our hair loss prevention and treatment programs may help restore your hair. One major aspect of our program includes Low Level Laser Hair Therapy (LLLT). LLLT is a revolutionary, break-through technology that was originally developed in Europe, and is totally safe and pain-free. Not only can Laser Hair Therapy improve the health of your existing hair and scalp, which may minimize future thinning, Laser Hair Therapy may also promote new hair growth!

Options  for Later Stages of Hair Loss: As hair loss progresses over time due to male pattern baldness, genetics, or if left untreated, clients may need a medical hair transplant. PAI Medical Group is proud to offer their Trademarked Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ procedure and the latest technology in hair transplantation — The ARTAS® Robotic System. Multi-Unit Hair Grafting™ uses a blend of different hair groupings (grafts) that are moved, or redistributed, according to the natural way in which they exist. By transplanting up to 3 times the amount of hair in a single session, we reduce the number of hair transplant procedures, reduce costs and maximize results. The ARTAS® Robotic FUE System uses high-resolution digital imaging for rapid, micron-level targeting accuracy, and image-guided robotic alignment for speed and precision beyond manual techniques. This procedure's minimally invasive dissection allows for healthy, intact grafts with nearly undetectable harvest sites.
