Am I a Candidate for Hair Restoration?

If you have thinning hair, consistent hair loss and breakage, or bald spots, you may be a candidate for hair restoration treatments. These treatments can include surgical, non-surgical, and minimally invasive techniques, often used in tandem. Candidates for hair restoration:

  • Have enough healthy hair for follicular unit transfer (FUT) and follicular unit extraction (FUE) treatments
  • Have mild to severe hair thinning or hair loss
  • Have realistic expectations for results
  • Want fuller, thicker hair with less breakage

There are multiple treatment options for hair loss patients, all targeting specific candidates, methods, and results.

What Are My Hair Restoration Options?

Most hair loss patients benefit greatly from combining hair restoration options. Hair loss can occur for a variety of reasons, namely genetics, but other factors play a role as well. During your consultation, Dr. Bienstock will help you determine possible causes and potential treatments tailored to your needs.

Follicular Unit Transfer (FUT)

Follicular unit transfer (FUT) is a method of hair restoration that has a long history of successful results. During this procedure, a small strip of donor hair is taken from the scalp, from which follicular units (small groups of hair follicles) are harvested. These healthy hair follicles are then transplanted in tiny incisions throughout the thinning or balding area of the scalp, where they can grow in as natural hair. The benefits of the FUT method include:

  • Shorter procedure time than FUE
  • Can treat a large portion of thinning hair
  • Provides a high density of hair coverage
  • Ideal for patients with more extensive hair loss

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a more recent technique, building upon the FUT method but with key differences. Rather than removing a strip of donor hair, FUE requires the surgeon to remove individual follicles from the donor area. Once the follicles are treated and prepared, Dr. Bienstock carefully inserts them into the treatment area, following your natural hair pattern and growth. This technique is much longer—it typically takes about eight hours from start to finish—but patients do not have to have a long incision as with the FUT method. Other benefits of the FUE method include:

  • Minimal scarring
  • Less downtime
  • The process is comfortable and less invasive
  • Custom treatment

PRP Injections

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a substance derived from blood, containing nutrient-dense growth factors that help induce healing. PRP is used in a variety of aesthetic treatments, including hair restoration. PRP can be injected into the scalp to stimulate hair growth and thickness—healing the scalp and follicles through regenerative properties. The benefits of PRP for hair loss include:

  • Minimally invasive, with no scarring
  • No downtime or recovery
  • Completely natural – Use of the patient’s own blood
  • Carries little risk

Noninvasive Hair Restoration

Hair loss patients often see the best results when noninvasive methods are paired with other treatments. Dr. Bienstock is committed to remaining on the cutting edge with new technologies and medications to help his hair loss patients see impactful results. From oral medications and supplements to topical creams, Dr. Bienstock will create a custom plan for you based on your needs and goals. The benefits of non-surgical hair restoration treatments include:

  • Minimal to no downtime or recovery
  • Minimal pain and discomfort
  • No anesthesia necessary
  • Customizable doses
  • Flexible treatment options

How Much Does Hair Restoration Cost in Long Island?

The cost of your hair restoration treatment will vary depending on the type and number of treatments, the severity of your concerns, and whether you have combined treatments or not.

Once you meet with Dr. Bienstock in your hair restoration consultation, he will create a treatment plan for you and provide you with an accurate cost estimate.
