IAHRS accepted member and chairman of the FUE research committee for the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, Parsa Mohebi, M.D. gives his take on the value and the current limitations of the ARTAS® Robotic Hair Transplant System.
If you’re considering hair transplant surgery and think that you’ve got it all figured out, step back and think again. Spencer Kobren discusses the reality of basing your decisions to undergo hair transplant surgery on the advice of anonymous posters on the internet and points to some major concerns about how the field is “evolving.” Remember, “state-of-the- art” is only state-of-the-art in the right hands! If you don’t truly understand the entire scope of all hair transplant options being offered today, as well as their possible pitfalls, surgery may not be for you.
Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman discuss the dumbing down of the internet,and how misguided consumer demand is what really drives certain changes in the field of surgical hair restoration. Spencer also fields calls from across the country from hair loss sufferers trying to navigate through this industry and avoid the marketing hype that seems to be coming full circle as new players start to hang up their shingles promoting their wares to unsuspecting consumers.
"Spencer Kobren's nationally syndicated show "The Bald Truth" has a dedicated listenership that would have Rush Limbaugh pulling his hair out in envy." --Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
