State-of-the-Art Surgical & Non-Surgical Treatments for Hair Loss
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

Dr. Prasad's expertise as a facial cosmetic surgeon gives him a unique advantage when restoring the hairlines for his patients. "It's all about natural harmony," says Dr. Prasad, "an attractive face should look natural with all its features in balance. Hair plays a very important role in a person's overall look."

The Sunetics Low Level Laser Therapy (3LT) has become one of the greatest innovations in hair restoration technology. In January 2007, the FDA gave clearance for the first low-level laser medical device for the treatment of hair loss.

The studies concluded that 93% of the participants had an increase in the number of terminal (thick) hairs. The average number of terminal hairs per square centimeter increased by 19 hairs/cm over a six-month period.

Dr. Prasad is proud to be one of the "first wave" adopters of this exciting technology. Both men and women alike are starting to see results from his newly adopted laser therapies.

"Laser technology has had an amazing impact on the results of cosmetic surgical procedures for my patients," notes A. Prasad, MD, FACS, "and the Low Level Laser Technology (3LT) for hair restoration is certainly one of those new laser therapies that has produced great results for my patients."

Many of Dr. Prasad's 3LT patients are women and young men with thinning hair, who are interested in a non-surgical option that will prevent future hair loss and also restore a thicker, fuller hairline.

The Sunetics 3L Therapy is the most advanced non-surgical solution for stimulating hair growth.

Simply by sitting under a device that looks somewhat like an old-fashioned hair dryer for about 20 minutes per week, Dr. Prasad's patients with thinning hair have noticed a huge improvement in the thickness, shine and length of their hair within a few months.

The first thing they notice is they have to get their hair cut more frequently! "I think the Sunetics 3LT is one of the most exciting tools being added to the lineup of options in fighting hair loss," says Dr. Prasad.

Dr. Prasad also provides his hair restoration patients with several sessions using the 3LT technology to enhance the results of their hair restoration procedure. The laser helps quicken the healing of the grafted area and donor site.

"This laser has been a wonderful addition to my practice. I have had excellent results both as a stand-alone treatment and as a post-surgical treatment," comments Dr. Prasad.

Step 1

You meet personally with Dr. Amiya Prasad who will provide information regarding causes of hair loss and hair restoration options. You will see more materials about the hair transplant procedure and will be provided typical treatment and cost ranges.

Step 2

Dr. Prasad performs a thorough examination of your thinning areas to determine your actual hair loss classification. Based upon this examination, he will determine your options for a hair transplant and recommend a hair restoration treatment plan.

Step 3

During the hair transplant procedure Dr. Prasad will choose a suitable segment from your "donor" area (back and/or side of the head), and an appropriate variety of follicular units. Each graft will be placed individually, at the correct angle and direction consistent with natural hair growth. The average hair transplantation procedure takes 4-6 hours during which you may watch movies and have lunch.

Step 4

Once your hair transplant procedure is complete, you simply go home and rest for the evening. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately with the exception of strenuous exercise, which should be avoided for two weeks. You can wash your hair after 48 hours using a special method that we teach you.

Most patients return to work after 1-2 days. The tiny crusts visible on the scalp following surgery disappear completely in 7-10 days.
