About the Clinic

Prasad Cosmetic Surgery, in New York, NY, is a cosmetic practice that offers platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments for skin rejuvenation, wound healing, scars, and hair loss. PRP is prepared by drawing a patient's blood and concentrating the platelets in a centrifuge, and is delivered in several ways, including microneedling with topically applied PRP, skin boosting that places PRP with hyaluronic acid into the dermis, and combinations with fractional CO2 or erbium laser and radiofrequency treatments such as Pellevé. Hyaluronic acid fillers are used for volume correction and may be combined with PRP in the same visit. Treatments are performed in the office with little to no downtime, and are often repeated, with maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months once the appearance is stable.

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.
