Even in advanced stages of baldness, some active hair follicles remain. These follicles, which are resistant to the factors that cause hair loss, are concentrated in the area at the back and sides of the head. We call this region the “donor area” for hair restoration.
During a hair transplant procedure in Honolulu, Hawaii, we harvest excess hairs – follicles and all – from the donor area and transplant them to bald or thinning areas on the top or front of the head. Hair restoration requires an artistic touch to create a brand-new hairline that complements a patient’s specific facial features, age and lifestyle.
Hair restoration surgery is equally effective in treating hair loss for both men and women. To learn about your hair restoration options, contact us using our online form or call 808-585-8855 to speak with us.
The medical process for hair restoration involves the transplanting of hairs and follicles from one area of the head to another. Follicles of hair on the human scalp are genetically programmed before birth. This determines if they become sensitive to the male hormones which begin to appear at puberty – causing the follicle to wither and die in time; or whether they will be unaffected by these hormones, continuing to grow throughout one’s lifetime.

Surgical transplantation of hair follicles is a remarkably simple outpatient procedure for hair restoration in Hawaii. During the hair transplant procedure, grafts are placed one at a time in thinning and balding areas. We artistically perform this procedure in a manner that results in virtually undetectable, natural-looking results – a restored hairline and a natural density to your hair.
