About the Clinic

International Hair Surgical Group is a leading provider of advanced hair restoration procedures, specializing in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) techniques. They focus on transplanting individual follicular units to achieve the most natural-looking results possible, offering a less invasive option with no linear scarring through the FUE method. The clinic emphasizes personalized care, with their surgeons carefully assessing each patient's scalp to determine the best-suited procedure for their unique needs and cosmetic goals.

The team at International Hair Surgical Group includes experienced surgeons such as Dr. Andrew J. Miller and Dr. Elliot M. Heller, who bring extensive training and board certifications in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. The clinic has been a recognized name in hair restoration since 1991 and operates across multiple convenient locations in New York and New Jersey. They also offer other treatments for hair loss, including eyebrow and facial hair restoration, as well as PRP and medical therapies.

While specific online reviews for International Hair Surgical Group were not readily found, patient testimonials mentioned on their site indicate satisfaction with the results and the recovery process. One patient described their healing process as fast, around five days, and noted that the hair texture improved over time, allowing them to restyle their hair after a long period of not being able to.

Procedures Offered

FUE
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area using a small circular punch tool. The harvested follicles are then carefully implanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp. This method leaves tiny, nearly invisible scars rather than a linear scar, resulting in faster healing and the ability to wear shorter hairstyles. Because of this, FUE is the most popular hair transplant technique today.
FUT
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), also known as the "strip method," involves surgically removing a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area, typically the back of the head. The strip is then carefully dissected under a microscope to separate individual hair follicles, which are implanted into the recipient areas. While this technique leaves a linear scar that requires longer hair to conceal, it allows surgeons to harvest a large number of high-quality grafts in a single session, making it cost-effective for patients needing extensive coverage.
NeoGraft
NeoGraft is an automated hair transplant device that streamlines the FUE process using pneumatic technology to maintain consistent suction and speed up the harvesting process while still requiring the surgeon's skill and judgment for follicle selection and placement. The system works as an extension of the surgeon's technique to extract and implant individual hair follicles more efficiently than fully manual methods. NeoGraft can reduce procedure time and potentially improve graft survival rates. It represents a middle ground between manual FUE and completely robotic systems.
