Your Surgical Experience in Hair Restoration
Every step of your hair restoration surgery explained
What Makes Our Surgical Experience Different
Every hair restoration procedure is personally led and medically supervised by Dr. Alba Reyes Sagiv. This physician-led approach ensures the highest standards of safety, surgical precision, and patient care.
From the initial clinical evaluation through the surgical procedure and post-operative follow-up, each step follows established medical protocols designed to support natural, consistent results. Our process prioritizes patient well-being, transparency, and long-term outcomes.
Dr. Reyes oversees every procedure to maintain strict medical accountability, ethical decision-making, and results aligned with the highest standards in modern hair restoration surgery.
Pre-Surgery Preparation and Consultation Process
Preparation for hair restoration surgery begins well before the procedure itself. A thorough consultation allows our team to review your medical history, evaluate your hair loss pattern, and determine whether surgical treatment is appropriate.
During this evaluation, Dr. Reyes designs a personalized treatment plan based on clinical findings, donor area assessment, and long-term planning. This process ensures that every surgical recommendation is medically appropriate and tailored to the individual patient.
Our team also prepares patients both physically and emotionally for surgery by answering questions, reviewing expectations, and explaining each step of the process. The goal is for every patient to approach their procedure with clarity, confidence, and a complete understanding of their treatment plan.
Medical History Review
A comprehensive review of your medical history is conducted to identify potential health considerations, current medications, and any contraindications that may affect surgery or recovery. This evaluation allows our medical team to plan the procedure safely and tailor care to your individual health profile.
Emotional Preparation
Our team takes the time to address any concerns and discuss realistic expectations regarding results, recovery, and hair growth timelines. This conversation helps ensure that you are well informed, mentally prepared, and confident as you move forward with your treatment plan.
Laboratory Testing
Cardiological Evaluation
When clinically indicated, a cardiological evaluation is conducted to assess heart health and determine surgical fitness. This precaution helps ensure patient safety and supports careful surgical planning for individuals with specific medical considerations.
Donor Area and Dermoscopic Evaluation
A comprehensive donor area evaluation is performed to assess hair density, follicle quality, and long-term donor sustainability. This step helps ensure responsible graft harvesting while preserving donor integrity and maintaining future treatment options if needed.
Using advanced dermoscopic analysis, the scalp is carefully examined to evaluate follicle health, signs of miniaturization, and any underlying scalp conditions. These findings allow for precise graft mapping and informed surgical planning, supporting natural-looking results while protecting long-term hair restoration outcomes.
