No linear scar, no invasive surgery. Just a fuller head of your own natural hair!
Your hair plays an important role in defining your appearance. Noticeable thinning, a receding hair line, or pattern baldness, while extremely common, can negatively impact your self-confidence. The good news is that you do not have to accept hair loss, and you do not have to compromise a natural look to regain a fuller, more attractive head of hair.
In a minimally-invasive outpatient procedure, hair restoration transplants individual healthy hair follicles from the back of your head to repopulate thinning areas, helping you restore a youthful hairline and enjoy normal, healthy hair growth within just a few months. Plus, results can last a lifetime.
How hair restoration can help
Aging or genetics can cause hair loss on the front, sides or top of your head, but hair follicles located on the back of your head are genetically programmed to produce healthy hair growth your entire life. The procedure extracts individual follicular units from this area and relocates them to areas where you are experiencing hair loss. This automated process helps to remove follicles more gently and precisely, which greatly increases follicle survival rate following transplantation.
The procedure takes only a few hours to perform, and restores normal, natural hair growth within 3 to 4 months after treatment. Moreover, patients are glad they had this treatment.
Benefits include:
- Minimally-invasive outpatient procedure with only local anesthesia
- No linear scar—minor pinpoint scarring produced during extraction heals inconspicuously once hair regrows in the area
- Treatment time is hours less than older, manual methods of extraction
- Very little downtime—many patients return to a desk job the next day, and exercise is permitted within a couple of weeks
- Excellent success rate—proprietary technology extracts hair follicles carefully and precisely, increasing their survival rate significantly for more satisfying, predictable results.
- You can style, cut or color your hair however you want —no minimum length required!
- Results can last a lifetime.

What to expect with hair restoration in Eugene
Dr. Movassaghi performs hair restoration as an outpatient procedure. First, he will mark the areas where he will place each follicular unit to ensure a natural hair pattern once hair growth is restored. To keep you comfortable during treatment, your scalp will be numbed with local anesthesia.
During the procedure, Dr. Movassaghi will extract the needed follicles from the back of your head using the handheld device, removing each follicle quickly and gently. These follicles are then placed in a temporary chamber to keep them in the optimal environment while they await transplantation. When extraction is complete, Dr. Movassaghi will implant each unit precisely into the scalp to restore even, natural thickness to your hairline or balding areas.
Following treatment, you will notice that the newly transplanted hair begins to shed away after 2 to 3 weeks, which is a completely normal process. Within 3 to 4 months, your hair will have fully resumed its normal growth cycle, and from this point on, you will enjoy fuller, healthier hair growth in the treated areas.
