Welcome to Halby Hair Transplant web site that was created to educate you about hair transplantation and to let you know who we are. Thanks to recent advances in hair transplant technology and equipment, natural hair restoration can be achieved for most individuals losing hair of the scalp, eyelashes, and eyebrows, producing excellent results impossible only a few years ago.  A well trained hair transplant surgeon is able to replace literally single hair follicles, replicating prior hair growth in a totally undetectable manner.  As these advanced procedures have been accepted and learned by the best surgeons of the United States and of the world, hair transplantation has become very popular and now is the number one surgical cosmetic procedure done on men.

 

 

 

The techniques have improved immensely since the old days of visible "plugs", corn row-like grafts, noticeable scarring of the donor site area, and unsightly scalp reduction surgeries. By using the newer techniques with smaller grafts and smaller recipient incision sites, there is less surgical invasiveness. When it is performed properly in the hands of a well-trained surgeon it looks like natural hair. The hair is your own hair: The hair grows like your own hair. You can go swimming and wet it, let the wind muss it, wash it, curl it, and perm it.

Scientists Find Possible Genetic Roots of Type of Hair Loss  

Genetic Finding Could Lead to New Targets for Treatment of Alopecia Areata, Researchers Say (WebMD.com)

By Katrina Woznicki | WebMD Health News | Reviewed by Laura J. Martin, MD
June 30, 2010 -- Scientists have identified eight genes that may be associated with the skin disease alopecia areata, a common cause of hair loss that affects 5.3 million Americans.

This is one of the first studies to locate genes potentially linked to alopecia areata. What is most striking about the genes identified is that they are already associated with a number of autoimmune disorders, including type 1 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. Now, researchers at Columbia University Medical Center in New York suggest these genes could be targets for new alopecia areata treatments.

Genes Linked to Hair Loss

One gene in particular caught the eye of study author Angela M. Christiano, PhD, a professor of dermatology and genetics and development at Columbia, and her colleagues. Known as ULBP3, this gene is normally not present in hair follicles, but ULBP3 proteins were found in high concentrations in hair follicles affected by alopecia areata. ULBP3 attracts immune cells called cytotoxic cells. If an infection is present in the body, cytotoxic cells can help fight the infection or destroy damaged cells, but if there is no infection or damage, these immune cells end up attacking healthy tissue.
