Los Angeles Hair Transplantation: Beard and Body Hair Transplantation (BHT) by Dr. Umar

Recently, some surgeons have been able to use advanced FUE-type techniques to extract hair from the beard and body area to use as donor sources for hair transplantation to the head. This process is popularly known as body hair transplantation (BHT). With BHT, hair follicles are extracted one at a time and transferred to balding areas of the scalp or to any other area in need of hair restoration. The advantage of BHT is that all and any type of body hair can be utilized for hair transplantation, including those in the back of your chest, back, stomach area, legs, arms, armpit and pubic areas. How much hair is restored depends on the patient's degree of hair loss and their desired result. Some needs and effective results are met in one hair transplant procedure while the goals of others may be best achieved over multiple hair transplant surgeries. Since body hair differs in quality and in its growth cycle, a surgeon experienced in BHT should be consulted if the shortage of head donor supply is an issue for a patient who wants a hair transplant performed. Furthermore, the patient should be sure to do thorough research before choosing a hair transplant specialist. It is important for a person to have a doctor who is honest and able to cater to the patient's needs, and make him feel as comfortable as possible.

With Dr. Umar's FUE-SFET approach, he is able to expand the available donor supply by adding hair from the beard and body areas into the head donor pool. With this innovative procedure, even the most severely bald individual can have his hair restored globally without sacrificing the crown or settling for an aged higher hairline. Dr. Umar's procedure is a very effective and is a possible option for some severely bald individuals or those that are donor depleted.

Dr. Umar is the top BHT hair restoration surgeon in the world, and he has performed surgeries that produced results that other clinic or doctor have written off as impossible. For this reason, other highly notable hair transplantation surgeons have recognized Dr. Umar as the leader in the practice of BHT and would refer their cases of BHT to him in his clinic in Los Angeles.
