Male hair loss, or male pattern baldness (MPB), affects the top of the scalp, whereas the sides and back are immune from this loss. Donor hair around the sides and back can be partially moved to the top where it will continue to grow and not suffer from MPB. The cause of the loss is dihydrotestosterone, created when an enzyme in the body combines with testosterone. Over years hair transplant techniques have been crude but this has changed with a revolutionary technique called Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).

Dr. Christian Bisanga, Medical Director of BHR Clinic in Brussels, has devoted much of his medical career to hair transplants and was one of the first to perform FUE. He has developed his FUE technique to the highest level, has presented talks to international hair restoration societies, trained other doctors to his exacting standards and is considered by many of his peers and patients alike to be at the forefront of FUE technology worldwide, attracting patients from around the globe.

“FUE is the individual removal of follicular units, or simply put the removal of naturally growing small groups of hairs from what we term the ‘donor site’ of the person, the back and sides of the scalp. The procedure is so refined that most of the time I will utilise a punch tool no larger than 0.75mm in diameter to harvest the grafts,” says Dr. Christian Bisanga.

A subtle procedure
Dr. Bisanga has specialised in FUE for almost 10 years and has developed his own harvesting protocol, ‘educated harvesting,’ leaving no obvious signs a hair transplant has been performed and allowing the client to keep their hair short or even shaved. He has a dedicated medical team that assists him to produce the most natural results possible, even at the closest inspection.

“FUE has revolutionised hair surgery. When performed to the highest standards there will be no visible scarring, so no signs a hair transplant has taken place. This means that smaller hair line procedures, even eyebrow treatment, can be performed with the minimum of fuss for the patient. I am thrilled to be able to develop this technique and move hair transplant procedures to a new level of excellence.”

Dr. Bisanga goes on to say: “Proof is always in results and satisfied patients. Independent hair loss forums such as www.hairlossexperiences.com can be a great source of information for those wanting to get a balanced, open and honest view of what a hair transplant involves, and I will always recommend the client does as much research as possible.”
