The Center for Cosmetic Surgery, which operates The Washington Hair Institute in Washington, DC, provides hair restoration alongside other cosmetic surgical and non-surgical treatments. Hair services include follicular unit extraction (FUE), follicular unit transplant (FUT), PRP for hair loss, TED (Transdermal Epithelial Delivery), and hair transplants for men and women. FUE is performed under local anesthesia, harvesting individual follicles from the back or sides of the scalp and placing them in thinning or balding areas, with no stitches required; new growth typically appears around three to four months and continues to fill in over 9 to 12 months. Candidacy is assessed at a personal consultation, where before-and-after photographs are also shown.
