Men and hair loss

Male pattern baldness, medically known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common type of hair loss in men. It typically manifests as a receding hairline and thinning on the crown. Factors contributing to this include genetics, hormonal changes, and aging.

Advanced hair restoration techniques

Our clinic offers the latest technology in hair restoration for men in San Antonio, including:

  • Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): This minimally invasive technique extracts individual hair follicles from denser areas and transplants them to thinning or balding areas. Ideal for those who prefer short hairstyles, FUE leaves minimal scarring. We use the advanced NeoGraft system for FUE hair transplantation. 
  • Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT): This procedure  involves removing a strip of scalp tissue from a donor area, typically the back of the head. This strip is then dissected into individual follicular units and transplanted to balding or thinning areas. FUT is suitable for those with significant hair loss. While this technique may leave a linear scar, it's often concealed by surrounding hair.
  • ARTAS iXi Robotic System: This state-of-the-art system enhances the precision and effectiveness of FUE, ensuring optimal graft placement and natural-looking results. The ARTAS iXi system employs advanced physician-assisted robotics and AI to precisely extract and transplant hair follicles, and 3D imaging for hairline design, ensuring accurate, minimally invasive hair restoration with exceptionally natural-looking outcomes and a faster, more comfortable process.

Personalized hairline design

Our board-certified plastic surgeons excel in designing hairlines that complement each man’s facial structure and aesthetic preferences. We use the ARTAS Hair Studio® for 3D simulations, allowing patients to visualize potential changes and contribute to the design process.
