FUT & FUE Hair Transplant Options: Twenty-First Century technology has changed our lives and it has also changed the field of hair transplant surgery. These advancements have enabled Dr. Friedman to offer his patients a wider-range of hair loss treatment options. Hair transplant patients can now choose between the tried-and-true traditional strip-harvested follicular unit hair grafts (FUT), or they can opt for computer-controlled, robotic-assisted follicular unit extraction (FUE) with the ARTAS System from Restoration Robotics.
This impressive new ARTAS System Guided FUE hair transplant procedure offers many advantages including:
- No linear incision scar from the donor area.
- Digital mapping provides precise and consistent graft dissection, unavailable with manual techniques.
- More donor hair is made available from areas where suturing a donor strip is not possible.
- ARTAS® can harvest hair from patients who’ve had multiple procedures in the past.
- More FUE grafts can be harvested & transplanted in less time.
- Your donor area is undetectable with short hair or during swimming activities (as opposed to strip-harvesting of hair grafts).
- Reduced recovery time and faster return to your normal activities that you enjoy.
- Redundant safety devices built into the system that is unique to FUE procedures.
- No linear scar graft harvesting as well as the ability to harvest more hair grafts than ever before.
Whether it’s FUT Strip-Harvest hair grafts or Robot Assisted FUE hair grafts, you can feel comfortable knowing you made the right decision by choosing one of the most experienced, and best-rated hair transplant doctors in the country.
Non-Surgical Low-Level Laser Therapy: The evolution in hair restoration technology is not limited to just surgical advancements. Depending on your type of hair loss, you may not even need surgery. In addition to topical and oral prescription treatments, which have been around for decades, the Scottsdale Institute offers FDA Cleared Low-Level Laser Therapy for proven hair loss prevention, as well as new hair growth in many of our LLLT patients.

“Dr. Friedman has a great “bedside manner” and answered all my questions clearly. Administration of local anesthesia was the worst part. The eyebrow transplant procedure was painless and well organized by the doctor and his team. I would highly recommend Dr. Friedman to anyone seeking an eyebrow transplant.”

“I went in for a hair transplant and it was an awesome experience from beginning to end. The staff told me exactly what to expect and took the time to explain everything to me. The post operation instructions were explained in detail and Dr. Freidman took the time to answer every question I had. Everyone was so nice and the best part is my hair looks amazing. I highly recommend Scottdale Institute to anyone looking to get a hair transplant.”

“Dr. Friedman is the first cosmetic surgeon who answered all of my questions before I asked them. And they were the right answers. Dr. Friedman and his techs were fantastic. It is a very tedious procedure and couldn’t have gone better. They’ve been great in the aftercare as well. Highly recommended. A+++

“Relaxed feeling. Tells it like it is. Makes the process less scary and understandable. I tried other places but this has been the most honest and trustworthy place I have found. I am a returning client so that has to say something about how Dr. Friedman puts you at ease. I appreciate you and your staff for everything. Especially giving me my confidence back.
“Thank you!”

“Dr. Friedman is a Godsend, I had to have hair transplant surgery after losing a significant amount of hair due to the use of testosterone pellets. I was extremely depressed for 18 months prior to surgery. It’s 1year post surgery and I could not be happier! My hair looks gorgeous! Dr. Friedman did such a good job that I don’t need a second procedure.”

“I have been considering a hair transplant for a few years, I spoke with several different offices. The difference for me was that I was getting to text pics of myself and have discussions about my options prior to ever setting foot into the Dr Friedman’s office. On my first visit to the office Dr Friedman gave me 100% confidence that he was the right choice. Going into the procedure I knew I was in good hands. Very minimal discomfort and an amazing staff made it so easy!

“I am happy with my results, The minute I met Dr. Shelly I immediately knew he was the perfect doctor for my procedure. He understood I was a younger which meant he was looking out for my hair growth in the long term. Overall the team was very respectable and did a great job of answering all of my questions. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Shelly to anyone who is not only looking for a hair transplant, but who is also looking for someone who has over 35+ years of experience and knows what they are doing.”

“ALL GOOD! I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Friedman and his entire staff. From my first conversation with Dave through the follow up visits, everyone was extremely friendly, helpful and willing to answer any and all of my questions.
“The procedure was painless, as was the recovery. The doctor is always available to talk and he and his staff walked me through the entire experience. Can’t wait to see the final result as I have no doubt it will be, like everything else, better than expected!”

An informed decision is the best decision and Dr. Friedman wants every one who endures unwanted hair loss to have the information they need to treat it effectively. Lies, exaggerations, fake science, and bogus claims have polluted the internet, making it difficult to get to the truth.

From it, you will learn why we lose hair, how it is lost, how we can prevent it, and what we can do—surgically and non-surgically—to get it back.
With over 100 illustrations and a straight-forward writing style, men and women can get to the truth, and avoid misinformation. Get your copy today from Amazon.com, $3.99 for Kindle readers.
