There are some young men out there that unfortunately picked up the hereditary “gene” of hair loss at quite a young age, this is called genetic male patterned hair loss or baldness. Early ages of balding can leave you feeling uncertain and anxious about the next steps to follow in restoring your hair. Yet, some young men are a little embarrassed and apprehensive to discuss these types of questions with their doctor. We’re here to help answer these questions for you..
The short answer?
Your top surgeons will warn you about getting a hair transplant too young. Trust us, there’s imperative precautions in ‘jumping the gun’ on a FUE or Strip hair transplant procedure, rather using an alternative such as medical management to start out with.
Many experienced surgeons will tell you to at least wait till your mid-twenties before going under the knife in hair restoration surgery. For example, in your early twenties, it’s still too early to predict the pattern of your future hair loss, potentially making the chances of your surgery an unnatural and unsatisfactory outcome in the coming years as your head naturally continues to thin out or bald. FUE and Strip hair transplant specialist, Dr. Yazdan suggests being at least 28-30 before considering a surgery as your future hair loss pattern is still uncertain. Thus, making the potential need for future transplant sessions highly inevitable.
“In order to achieve the most highly desired results for my patients, we need to closely examine their history, and future expectations. We need to also closely focus on their donor and recipient areas, counting the number of donor hairs the patient has while determining any existing hair growth trends and foreseeing any future problem areas,” says Yazdan.
Dr. Yazdan highly recommends meeting with a hair loss specialist to discuss if medical management is right for you before moving forward with a transplant surgery.
But don’t get discouraged! Medical management can certainly help in preventing any future hair loss including using a medication called finasteride. Finasteride is a medication to treat scalp hair loss in men and is a DHT blocker. Decreasing the amount of DHT leads to increased hair regrowth and slows down the hair loss problem. This is a great first step in becoming a better, more enhanced YOU.

The Many Health Benefits of Using Topical Argan Oil

There’s something to be said about goats willing to climb 30-foot-tall trees just to get their hands or hooves, rather, on the world’s most expensive edible oil. People throughout the world have taken advantage of the many benefits argan oil has to offer including the effectiveness it has as an all-natural moisturizer for your skin and hair.
Argan oil is known for its richness in Vitamin A and E but the nutrients don’t stop there, it is also packed with antioxidants, omega-6 fatty acids and linoleic acid. Tocopherol derived from the Vitamin E helps to boost cell production while promoting healthy skin and hair. This is why you’re seeing high-end anti-aging hair and skincare products adding this nutritious fruit to its ingredients.
“We live in a world where people will do just about anything to stay youthful, with hair thinning and hair loss being at the top of the list of reasons we look more aged, I knew there was more I could do to help.” Said Dr. Yazdan.
With over 40% of men alone experiencing noticeable hair thinning and hair loss by the age of 35 in the United States, Dr Yazdan felt an urgency to help gain their confidence back. Spending many years perfecting a shampoo + conditioner enriched with argan oil to fulfill the demand of a hair restoration product that actually WORKS.
Fun Fact: A Whopping 60% of hair loss sufferers said they would rather have more hair than money or friends while 30% said they would be willing to give up sex entirely to get their hair back!
But why the hefty price tag on argan oil? By hand, Moroccan natives extract the oil from the fruit derived from the argan tree making this an extremely intensive process and very time consuming. Due to the intensive process and the fact that argan trees can only be found in Morocco, makes it expensive to produce, yet a “holy grail” in the beauty and hair industry.

Here are some of our other favorite benefits of Argan Oil-

Overnight Deep Conditioning Treatment– Dry hair, dry scalp or dandruff? No problem! Warm 5-10 drops in your hands and massage through hair. Finish by applying a hair cap which allows you to retain your natural body heat, helping the oil to penetrate deeply.
Nighttime Moisturizer-Pour just 1 drop (2 drops in winter months or in dryer climates) into your palm and apply in a circular motion to your face and neck. The Vitamin A & E can help to reduce fine wrinkles. A 2015 study shows benefits to anti-aging effects.
Hair Growth– That’s right, recent studies have indicated that argan oil also promotes hair growth. So, make sure to add a few drops and massage into your scalp, or use hair care products containing argan oil.
Skin Toner– Skin toning is a critical step in your skin care routine. Add 2-4 drops to your favorite toner for a youthful all-over glow.
Acne– Its high linoleic acid content reduces inflammation and is known to decrease sebum levels in people with oily skin while helping damaged skin cells. Fun Fact: Tea Tree oil helps compliment argan oil with its rich antioxidant contents and its antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties making it a great duo!
Leave-in Conditioner– It’s not only great for skin, but your hair too! This non-greasy oil repairs split end, tames frizz and fly-aways, and protects against heat from hair dryers, curlers and flat irons.
Hand & Foot treatment– If you have dry, cracking feet and hands, apply a few drops for a great winter-weather moisturizer.
Facial Serum– Add 1-2 drops on a cotton pad after cleansing and wake up with super soft skin!

Beverly Hills, California (December 28, 2017) -Modena Hair Transplant, a leading provider of Hair Restoration, today announced that they recently opened a branch office located in Beverly Hills, CA, adjacent from the prestigious Rodeo Drive shopping district accommodating hair transplantation services to the greater Los Angeles region.
Plans to develop operations in Beverly Hills, CA were initiated by the growth of their Orange County locations and the fact that there has been a vast pandemonium of botched procedures occurring worldwide by doctors attempting to do it ‘on the side’ which has brought both men and women to their medical offices for reconstructive hair transplant surgery. Modena Hair Transplant will now be able to better meet the needs of Los Angeles locals as well as making the location an excellent hub for all Dr. Yazdan’s patients that travel from across the world for his expertise in restoring hair loss.
“The opening of Modena Hair Transplant’s new Beverly Hills office is an important step forward as the demand continues to expand,” said Dr. Yazdan M.D at Modena Hair Institute. “The new office will be the first of many important changes for the company in 2018 and we are beyond thrilled to start providing patients in the Los Angeles area with both FUE and Strip Hair Transplant Surgery.”
As a long-standing member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, Dr. Yazdan is one of the world’s leading medical authorities on hair loss and hair restoration. He is trained in all the latest methods and technology of Hair Transplant procedures using techniques and tools not found in any other clinic in the world.
His specialized training and experience prompted Dr. Yazdan to establish the Modena Hair and Laser Institute in 2011, where he offers a spectrum of services related to hair loss in men and women. Furthermore, his advanced artistry and always staying ahead of the curve has landed him the roll of being chief medical consultant for LA Weekly and a consultant on major television shows such as the Dr. Phil show and The Doctors.

You’re elated on the idea of having that thick youthful head of hair you always dreamed of and are ready to take the next step, but..
You may want to think twice before finding a surgeon who relies on a robot to do most of the work!
If you’ve done your research, you may have heard of physicians using a newer technology called the “Artas”. The Artas is a robotic machine claiming to provide speed and accuracy beyond manual techniques from your surgeon. WRONG. This is the less accurate way of doing things and unfortunately, it’s resulting in more and more Corrective Hair Transplants. Here’s what they’re not telling you..
-Its punch size is much larger in diameter leaving you with larger incisions and scars on the back of your head which can result in delayed healing and more trauma if not sparing nearby hair follicles.
-Larger grafts also mean larger recipient sites to be made, therefore not allowing the grafts to be as compact as they would with smaller grafts.
-The Artas creates a deeper score which has been known to bury grafts and likely cause cyst formation.
-An experienced FUE surgeon can expect a graft survival rate of around 90% while the Artas may have a much lower survivability. Based on our experience we’ve seen the survivability as low as 20% from the Artas under the use of inexperienced staff.
-The device can be set to target 3-4 hair grafts. Doctors have been known to cut and split these grafts, artificially increasing the number of grafts while minimizing the cost paid to Artas as the doctor pays per graft.
-The Artas has restrictions. One instrument and one device won’t work on 100% of the population. In fact, only 30-40% of patients are candidates for the procedure, so your doctor needs to have alternate techniques and tools for a proper FUE transplant. Thus, on the day of your surgery your surgeon needs a backup method of extracting the grafts so they’re not being permanently damaged.
-While Robotic hair transplants sounds pretty advanced and futuristic, it’s just another way a less experienced doctor can set up shop doing hair transplants amongst other services they already provide.
Conclusion? There are still too many limitations and refinements needed of the Artas to even come close to what a skilled physician can accomplish with the delicate touch of human hands and artistic craft for natural looking results. I would recommend people considering hair transplant surgery to find a skilled surgeon whom has many instruments to perform FUE.
If your Hair Transplant has been botched by the Artas robot and need Corrective hair transplant give us a call today. With Offices located in Beverly Hills, Orange County, and Las Vegas we specialize in hair transplant repair.

While California has many hair transplant surgeons to choose from, people living in other states aren’t so lucky. Some individuals may find they are lucky to even find just 1 reputable and experienced hair transplant surgeon in their area.
As a result, they may be wondering just how important the hair surgeon is to actual hair transplant results. After all, all hair transplants require the same basic steps of extracting and placing grafts, right? Unfortunately, no. Hair transplants can be a quite complicated procedure that requires expertise in order to achieve desirable results.
If the surgeon in your area leaves much to be desired when it comes to prove hair transplant results, it may be in your best interest to consider traveling for a reputable surgeon. Many consultations can be done via email with pictures or videochat. And while you may pay a little extra in travel expenses, it can be considered an investment in a quality hair transplant.
Here at Modena, many of our patients travel to us from all over the world. We understand the value of making the right choice when it comes to results and medical procedures, so we offer competitive travel perks for our out-of-town guests.
If you’d like to learn more about the value of having an experienced hair surgeon perform your hair transplant, give us a call today.
