Hair Transplant 360 for Physicians with DVD's - Vol. I
This book serves to bridge that divide as thoroughly as possible by providing a 360-degree perspective on how to perform superior hair-transplant surgery from the alpha to the omega for both physician and assistant. As part of that vision, every reader (physician and assistant alike) should try to digest the information contained in both volumes for a comprehensive and fundamental understanding of hair transplantation. This first volume for physicians with the goal to help a beginning hair-transplant surgeon to practice the safest, most artistic and technically superior hair restoration possible. With that objective in mind, the depth of this subject should also hopefully enlighten even the most seasoned hair-transplant practitioner. I have focused the first chapter on the medical side of hair restoration, including the basic points of anatomy and physiology, processes of hair loss, diseases that preclude hair-restoration surgery, along with practical topics like consultation, marketing, and preoperative planning that every physician should know before beginning to operate. Without this front-end Knowledge, a physician cannot aspire to be a great surgeon. When it comes to surgery, this book stands as an exquisitely detailed blueprint of how to do it from ones surgeons perspective, with all the attendant biases to which I will fully admit. However, in my estimation multi-author projects can inherently lead to confusion on the readers part of how exactly to perform a given procedure. This book offers a stepwise practical guide on how to undertake the technical details of hair transplant surgery from start to finish. Further, extensive illustrations, photographs, and videos that I have personally designed and developed for optimal educational value lavishly support the text. It is my hope that this book will become the most practical guide on how to perform hair transplant surgery safely and effectively that is available on the market. TABLE OF CONTENTS: 1.
