4D hair restoration

zoe medical hair restoration

Almost everyone will experience the 4 dimensions of hair problems at some point in their lifetime.

At Zoe Medical, our team specialises in addressing all 4 dimensions of hair restoration.

EXCESSIVE HAIR LOSS

More than 50-100 strands of hair dropping per day are considered excessive. This can result in sparse patches of visible scalp, which is best treated by adding volume through the 4D Hair Restoration procedure.

INSUFFICIENT HAIR GROWTH

Sparsely covered scalp can also result from hair growth that cannot compensate for normal daily hair loss. The
treatment of choice for this condition is the 4D Hair Restoration procedure.

WEAK HAIR FOLLICLES

Going to the “root” of hair loss can sometimes require a slice of science. At Zoe Medical, we have seen excellent hair follicle strengthening through an FDA/HSA-approved procedure known as Regenera Activa. In this 30-minutes procedure, scalp micrografting is used in an injection technique to strengthen existing follicles as well as reduce the rate of loss whilst increasing overall growth.

UNHEALTHY SCALP

Successful hair restoration depends on a healthy scalp to sustain hair volume, thickness and quality. We use evidence-based hair laser, MicroCurrent stimulation and topical treatments to infuse the scalp with growth factors, exosomes and proteins to create a healthy scalp to hold the follicles in place.

What is the 4D Hair Restoration procedure that is available at Zoe Medical?

FUE Method using ERASE technology

FUE stands for Follicular Unit Extraction, where hair grafts are harvested without any cutting/stitching as previously necessary in the traditional strip-excision method of hair transplant.

The FUE procedure involves individually harvesting SINGLE follicular units using ERASE (Electronic Rotation Assisted Single Extraction) technology, which minimises any follicular damage whilst speedily doing the work. To perform this well requires team training and experience. Once already harvested, the follicular grafts are doctor-assessed under high powered microscopy in order to select only healthy grafts for implantation. The grafts are then stored in a specialised HypoThermosol medium whilst awaiting transplantation into areas of low hair density.

This technique guarantees no linear scar that was once associated with previous methods of hair transplantation.

Sapphire fue system

Sapphire FUE

A standard hair transplant procedure uses steel blades to cut holes for follicular grafts to be implanted.

The Sapphire FUE system utilises a unique Sapphire crystal to create micro-channels in extremely precise density, angulation and direction. These factors contribute to long-lasting and natural results. Recovery is also quicker than usual; as the microchannels are created with less trauma and more accuracy. This will also speed up the process of getting our patients from Restoration to Restaurant!

SO HOW DOES IT WORK?

STEP 1: Follicular Extraction

ERASE technology instruments are used to safely remove each individual hair graft. The rate of follicular damage is minimized in order to fully utilize each precious graft.

STEP 2: Follicular Separation

Under high-powered magnification, each hair graft is assessed, separated and stored in a specialised HypoThermosol medium at regulated temperatures in order to maximise quality graft survival.

STEP 3: Follicular Implantation

Under enhanced microscopy, the harvested hair grafts are then skillfully implanted using a no-touch technique to achieve a natural long lasting result.

STEP 4: Recovery

The treated area will then be “beanied” to protect the grafts for up to 24 hours. The beanie is removed the next day to facilitate Wetling MicroCurrent Stimulation therapy. Zoe Medical is blessed to be one of very few centres in Singapore to provide this modality of accelerated healing and enhanced hair graft survival.

COMING SOON TO 4D HAIR RESTORATION

– From Restoration to Restaurant –

Trivellini Long Hair Transplantion

The Trivellini Long Hair system enables 4D Hair Restoration using LONG hairs. As no shaving is involved, the waiting time for final results to be seen is reduced drastically. The recipient area density and distribution can also be immediately observed without having to wait for future growth. Adjustments can be made instantly. 

The restored long hairs also conceal any redness and scabs, making it possible for patients to walk from Restoration to the Restaurant!

Other applications for FUE hair transplant

  • Facial hair transplantation (beard, moustache, goatee, sideburns)
  • Eyebrows and eyelashes
  • Scar alopecia (patches of baldness from traumatic injuries, previous surgery)

Frequently Asked Questions

Firstly, 4D Hair Restoration utilises ERASE technology for extraction of the grafts. Our team has been specifically trained and are very familiar with ERASE as part of the 4D Hair Restoration procedure.In addition, 4D Hair Restoration also employs the Wetling MicroCurrent Stimulator to accelerate healing and encourage new hair follicles to stay exactly where they have been planted. These two technology based modalities enable us to provide our patients with satisfactory levels of hair growth after undergoing 4D Hair Restoration.

Most patients experience NO VISIBLE scarring in the donor area. 4D Hair Restoration provides natural-looking, long lasting results without the risks of unsightly scars.

It takes between 6-10 hours (depending on the number of grafts). Patients are seated or reclined during the procedure, and can take breaks to eat, drink or visit the washroom. Our team will always be there with you throughout the entire process.

4D Hair Restoration is performed at our fully equipped medical centre. We pride ourselves in having invested greatly in technology for both pain-control as well as hair restoration. Some patients may still, however, experience some minor discomfort and swelling over 1 to 3 days. These are very well controlled with oral analgesics.

It takes about 2 – 3 days to recover and up to 1 week for hair to look socially acceptable. Some people choose to avoid social contact for 3 – 5 days. Alternatively, many choose to go out from the very next day with a beanie covering the head.

Avoid strenuous activity for 1 week. After this, patients may go back to the gym, running and even yoga. Patients may resume swimming after 2 weeks. Contact sports like boxing, muay thai and rugby can be resumed after 1 month.

After 4-6 months, the new healthy transplanted hair will start to grow. From 6-9 months, the implanted areas will begin to appear denser, and after 9 months, 80% of the results are clearly seen.

It would be approximately 1 year after a 4D Hair Restoration procedure that full results are visible, as hair follicles go through a cycle of shedding and then regrowing.

Not right now. Let’s wait till Covid is all settled and everybody is successfully vaccinated. Watch this space!

4D Hair Restoration costs from $2000 for small cases and up to $20,000 for complicated or longer procedures.
