What
Sets Our Practice Aside From Others – Our Philosophy
Many
patients have told us that our genuine interest in
helping them and their great natural-looking results are
the reason they love us.
At 600 Hair Club, from the initial inquiry, phone
call, email, or visit, all the way through the final
post operation visit, we strive to keep our patients
satisfied and happy.
We emphasize confidentiality, professionalism,
and make every effort to use the maximum number of hairs
transplanted in one session.
We also achieve the best results in an artistic
way; in a manner that is specialized for each person’s
individual need, at our safe and clean center that is
certified and accredited by the AAAASF.
In order to see if a patient is a
good candidate for hair transplantation and in order to
achieve the highest levels of satisfaction, we believe
that the doctor himself should do all of the
consultations. Since
most of sales consultants are more interested in sales
figures and clinic incomes, a patient’s satisfaction
might not become the primary goal if the consultations
are mainly done by a sales consultant.
We are proud to say that all of our
consultations are done by Dr. Yousefi himself at a
length that is not rushed.
At 600 Hair Club we believe that this way
patients can get to know Dr. Yousefi first hand, and not
through a consultant or a sales person.
How
Can I get Excellent, Natural, and Beautiful Results?
At 600 Hair Club, Dr. Yousefi and his
staff will use a combination of years of experience in
excellent surgical techniques, great artistic skills,
and fastidious attention to details to create excellent
hair transplantation results.
After four years of undergraduate training at the University
of Maryland, Dr. Yousefi finished another four years
of medical schooling at the Medical
College of Virginia (VCU/MCV) Later, he did his
general residency in Michigan to perfect his surgical
skills and to achieve the highest standards in aesthetic
and cosmetic hair transplant surgery.
Dr. Yousefi then went on to achieve another fellowship
in Kentucky in the field of Microsurgery (see Dr.
Yousefi’s CV) Dr. Yousefi is proud to combine his
experience and training in general surgery, plastic
surgery, and microsurgery that are needed to create an
excellent, natural, and beautiful result for each and
every patient.
Why
Does a Hair Transplant Surgeon need to be an Artist as
Well?
Hair transplantation is not a mechanical surgery in
a way that people cut hair from one area and place it in
another area. Even
though surgical skills are necessary to have great
outcomes, artistic abilities of a great surgeon are more
important to create excellent natural-looking results.
Hair transplantation is NOT like planting trees.
In order to get excellent hair transplantation
results, Dr. Yousefi and his staff will consider many
factors including how to prepare the grafts, where to
place the grafts, how to place the grafts, the angle of
the grafts, the depth of the grafts, as well as the
number of grafts. Furthermore,
hair characteristics, the unique and individual anatomy
of each patient’s head, and facial features, need to
be considered in combination with patients’ scalp
characteristics. The hair’s density, caliber, curl,
and frizz/waviness should be considered when placing
grafts in oily or very elastic scalps.
Dr. Yousefi is proud to combine his
experience and training in general surgery, plastic
surgery, and microsurgery that are needed to create an
excellent, natural, and beautiful results. Dr. Yousefi
is a true artist in both his painting and sculpting
hobbies.
What
Happens During the First Interview or Consultation?
Dr. Yousefi himself conducts all of
the consultations.
At 600 Hair Club, we do not use sales consultants
to “close the deal.”
The only way to make sure that confidentiality,
professionalism, ethical standards, and genuine
interests of the patients are met is for the doctor who
performs the surgery to do the consultation as well.
Even though Dr. Yousefi does all of
his consultations personally, they are not rushed and
are done in a relaxed confidential environment.
This ensures that the patients get all of their
questions answered, gives them a chance to see if they
like their doctor, and more importantly for the doctor
to see if the patient is a good candidate for hair
transplantation, and not to promise unrealistic results.
Dr. Yousefi welcomes and encourages
for the spouses or close friends of the patient to
attend these consultations so that more questions can be
addressed.
Where
Is the Surgery Done?
It is important to do the surgeries
in a safe, clean and relaxed environment, with state of
the art equipment, performed by a certified doctor and
staff.
Dr. Yousefi is a board certified
surgeon who operates only in accredited and certifies
surgical centers with certified staff.
Our own surgical center is certified by AAAASF.
Therefore we have the luxury of giving local
anesthesia with or without twilight sedation or even
general anesthesia if necessary.
Since our facility is certified, we are capable
of taking care of complications on site if any are to
arise.
Why
is it Important to do a Surgery in a Certified Facility?
Dr. Yousefi only performs his
surgeries in accredited and certified operating rooms.
Our own surgical center is certified by AAAASF.
These days, more and more places offer oral
and/or IV medications to decrease anxiety and discomfort
without proper equipments to monitor the patients while
they are sedated. In
case of an emergency (anaphylactic allergic reaction to
these relaxing medications, or even lidocaine overdose
and toxicity) it is obviously beneficial to be in a
certified facility so that the resuscitation equipment
with trained personnel is available.
It is important to mention that these conditions
are rare; however safety comes first at 600 Hair Club.
How
Expensive is Hair Transplantation at 600 Hair Club?
At 600 Hair Club, we have a genuine
interest in helping patients get great natural results
and therefore have a high level of patient satisfaction.
The higher the number of hairs that are
transferred, the better the results. The number of hairs are more important than number of grafts
(see the difference between hair vs. grafts).
Dr. Yousefi encourages a large session, typically
4000-6000 hairs rather than many small sessions. This is
much more beneficial both financially and physically.
Not many locations are equipped to perfectly
implant that many hairs in one day.
Obviously, the more hairs that are
transplanted, the better the results will be.
This means that the surgery will be more
involved, and therefore more expensive.
The range of hair transplantation prices at 600
Hair Club is from $2,800.00-$6,800.00.
Financing is also available.
