At the Falcone Center, we want to provide you with non-surgical options to maintain, improve and restore the quality and density of your hair. Because of Dr. Falcone’s diverse knowledge base and expertise in Functional, Cosmetic and Integrative Medicine, our approach is unique.
While most hair loss is hereditary, there are other factors that can influence the growth and shedding cycles of your hair. Your consultation will include an assessment of multiple factors that may be contributing to the altered texture, size and density of your hair including topics such as
-Nutrition
-Thyroid function
-Hormones
-Digestion
-Genetics
If medical and nutritional assessment is indicated, Dr. Falcone can make recommendations for evaluation.
When you are ready for treatment an individualized treatment protocol will be developed. This may include natural growth factor treatment, laser treatments, Vampire Hair Treatment with ACell, Adipose Derived Stem Cell treatment, ALMA TED hair treatment , hair care products, nutrients and use of prescription topical or oral medications. You will be part of developing the plan that will work within your lifestyle, budget, preferences and tolerance for downtime.
Should I Get A Hair Transplant?
Hair transplant surgery can certainly help to restore your hairline by rearranging existing hair follicles to achieve a more desirable cosmetic appearance. But hair loss that is hereditary in nature will continue to progress even after hair transplant. The transplanted hair may help to fill in a problem area but as hair loss progresses over time, future transplant or treatment will be necessary to address new areas of loss.
Hair transplants of any kind are very costly ranging typically from $7000 to $14000. The risk of scarring at the donor region, cost and the healing process often leads patients to seek other options.
The most important thing is to try and protect the hair follicles that remain and wake up dormant follicles to prevent future decline in hair density. This is the goal for development of a comprehensive treatment plan at the Falcone Center.
If you decide to have a hair transplant, we strongly recommend that you visit the Falcone Center for you consultation. Not only do we have an experienced hair transplant team offering Neograft FUE procedures, we also provide comprehensive before and after treatment care plans to help maintain and protect your new and remaining hair follicles.
Non-Surgical Hair Restoration
Regenerative Medicine Techniques can be applied to hair loss prevention and restoration. If the cause of your hair loss and decreased hair density is hereditary, such as with androgenic alopecia, the goal of treatment is to stimulate dormant hair follicles. Using therapies to stimulate dormant or sluggish stem cells around the hair follicles can help reverse the miniaturization of hair follicles and improve overall hair growth. Growth Factors can be found in your own blood, Extra-Cellular Matrix (ACell), Bone Marrow, Adipose Derived Stem Cells and in cutting edge preparation. Your consultation at the Falcone Center will help to determine which options are right for you.
Natural Hair Restoration
Growth factors found in your own blood can stimulate stem cell activity in dormant hair follicles.
At the Falcone Center we use the Magellan device to process your blood and extract a high concentration of growth factors. These growth factors are injected into the scalp and also micro-needled into the scalp using the Skin Pen Micro Needling device.
While some practices uses a lower quality, less expensive and smaller quantity of growth factors, at the Falcone Center, we feel it is necessary to use the Magellan device yielding higher concentrations and quantity of growth factors necessary hair restoration. It is a more expensive and sophisticated technology then a simple centrifuge. The Magellan device yields concentrations of growth factors that have been scientifically proven and are of quantities sufficient for wound healing and orthopedic use as well. There is a difference!!!
The amount of growth factors available to spread under the scalp is also important! 5-10cc spread over the entire crown of the head is insufficient to get growth factors to each hair follicle. At the Falcone Center we can produce up to 21cc of growth factors per treatment yielding better coverage of as many hair follicles as possible.
We suggest an initial regimen of 3 treatments separated by 4-6 weeks followed by a maintenance treatment every 4-6 months depending on individual factors. Individual results will vary. Click Here to learn more about this Hair treatment.
The Vampire Hair Growth Treatment
For those who desire to further augment the stimulation of their hair follicles beyond a regular Magellan hair treatment, a product called ACell can be used on the same day.
For the Vampire Hair Growth Treatment, ACell fine powder is mixed with several nutrients before the solution is injected into the scalp.
At the Falcone Center, we recommend the Vampire Hair Growth Treatment combining ACell, PRP and Vitamins rather then just PRP injection alone. The injection is more expensive for a single treatment but the result in one treatment is generally more significant and long lasting.
Functional Medicine Evaluation
Because there are so many factors influencing a patient’s hair quality and hair density, a functional medicine evaluation may be helpful when developing a treatment plan. Functional Medicine doctors seek to uncover the root cause of medical problems by incorporating the latest in genetic science, systems biology and knowledge about how nutrition, environmental and lifestyle factors influence the emergence and progression of aging and disease. Dr. Falcone is a certified Functional Medicine physician. Click Here to learn more about a Functional Medicine Hair evaluation.
Nutrition
Proper nutrition is necessary for healthy hair. If you have digestive issue that cause lack of nutrient absorption, poor protein intake, low iron or insufficient B Vitamins (often associated with a vegan diet), proper supplementation and treatment will be recommended prior to undergoing hair regrowth therapies. The Falcone Center offers a comprehensive approach. Your consultation will help us to determine the proper evaluation and treatment sequence.
Rogaine and Propecia
If you haven’t already tried some common over-the-counter or prescription treatments for hair loss, we will make recommendations during your consultation. A combination of therapies can help to maximize results.
