Hair Transplant Blog

About your hair clinic. I have heard that some doctors use to work in clinics which are not in very good conditions for a hair transplant. Could you give me some information about your hair clinic?

In order to realise a good hair transplant you must have a good team, a good technique and also a good clinic. Both the consultations and the surgeries take place in this clinic: clinique capillaire Grand Roi in Brussels, Belgium. I welcome the patients for the consultations and I realise the surgeries in a operating room which respacts the European rules, iso 2000. The air is purified by a system of spray, oxygen is available, the sterilisation room is separated… It is very important to provide comfort to a patient during the whole surgery so the armchair can be adjusted to change the position very often. For the patients living in another country, we arrange the accommodation in a very comfortable hôtel only 10 min far from our clinic.
For more information, have a look on our web site.

I would like to understand how the trichophytic suture works? I read that it is a new technique?

This is an old technique, which has been redescovered in 2005 by Dr Mario Marzola (Australie). In 1999, during the ISHRS Congress, Dr Simon Rosenbaum gave information about it; and this technique had its rebirth during the expansion of the FUE technique. In fact, most of the patients are worried about the scar left by the strip of the FUT technique. Many tests were done until the ISHRS congress in Las Vegas, in 2007, and only one technique of trichophytic suture has been chosen. A little strip of skin is taken, about 1 mm wide, from the inferior part of the skin which is going to be sutured in order to let the hair grow through the scar during the healing. Thanks to the trichophytic suture the scar is almost always unnoticeable, sometimes undetectable. Unfortunately, we do not have many indications yet that is why it must be used very carefully.
