Hair Rescue™ - ACell MatriStem Procedure for Hair Restoration at Prasad Cosmetic Surgery

[MrArmandoToledo]

so i could get the injections where it is thinning to stop hair loss and regrow hair without doing a transplant right? is that still pretty effective?

[xlr8user12]

@drprasad1 can you use acell to stimulate hair growth as well as help maintain hair? I am currently on propecia and would wonder if this can help me

[DrPrasad1]

@xlr8user12 Yes, ACell treatments helps save hairs at risk as well as help "rescue" miniaturizing hairs. We perform ACell in our New York offices for our patients who want to prevent hair loss from continuing into baldness. Our patients see positive results after treatment.

@DrPrasad1 hi, you mention New York offices, what about UK? on your website its mentioned that Dr. Gary Hitzig brought the practice to Prasad Hair Resoration Devision. I'm in sweden but I woudn't mind paying a visit if case this treatmeant is not available in sweden within a year. Hope for an answer.

[DrPrasad1]

@uberfun19 Due to government regulations, it may a long time for ACell to be available and permitted in Sweden. ACell is available for hair rescue and restoration in our NY offices. We offer consultations via Skype video camera for our international patients. Visit our website for more info and if your are interested, contact us. If you are seeking ACell treatment for hair loss, it is better to have it done sooner than later as ACell can prevent further hair loss.

[malkauns007]

Any chance of this treatment be available in Norway, if so when?

[SundusQ6r]

What about the Middle east?

Do you offer ACell Technique in this region?

[DrPrasad1]

@SundusQ6r Not as of yet as the company can not ship ACell outside the US --- at least 1 year away.

[SPRoubi2020]

Is there anyone in the Southeast (Florida, Georgia) who offers this procedure?

[DrPrasad1]

@SPRoubi2020 None yet that we are aware of-- we have patients flying in from not only the whole country, but also the whole world! Under the supervision of Dr. Gary Hitzig, Prasad Cosmetic Surgery delivers ACell + PRP injections for Hair Restoration at the offices in New York City and Garden City, Long Island.

[MrFlashOwen]

Ok I just saw the headlines there on your site so it is on it's way. But maybe the real question is besides UK, what other European countries will use this technique?

[DrPrasad1]

@MrFlashOwen ACell treatments will be available in Scandinavia. I am actually working with them this coming week for the second time on the proper administration of ACell for hair loss treatments.

[MrFlashOwen]

Would this technique be involved in Europe soon?

[DrPrasad1]

@MrFlashOwen Eventually ACell should be available in Europe, but it will take time.

[revgen123]

Could you use a willing volunteer in NYC with hair loss for your hair growth research/treatment therapy? If so, I wouldn't hesitate to sign up.

[DrPrasad1]

@revgen123 No more volunteers are needed at this time. At this point we have to charge for all procedures for hair restoration using ACell MatriStem technology to treat hair loss. If you are interested in ACell and think that ACell can benefit you, you can make a consultation with Dr. Hitzig through our website or call our offices 212-265-8877.

[OFFICIALLUSH]

Acell is a great revolution to the hair restoration industry. Unfortunately a lot of techs, including myself , will lose employment because of it :/. I'm currently an IC and I haven't seen this anywhere as of yet. I'm sure that will change soon

[xzaxx]

at one time you are saying that you are injecting stem cell in the head at another time you are transplanting

[DrPrasad1]

@xzaxx We administer ACell for hair restoration (combined with Platelet Rich Plasma injections) at the same time as the hair transplant surgery. We do both at the same time

[DrPrasad1]

@xzaxx We do both ACell injection and Hair Transplant during the same session.

[xzaxx]

i dont understand. are you transplanting hairfollicles from another part of the head? i mean are you moving hair from one place to other place in this video? or are you using some kind of enzym to get new hair growth?

[DrPrasad1]

@xzaxx This is a combination of hair transplant AND ACell/Enhanced PRP injection in one area and injections alone in another area, specific to this patient's hair loss condition.

[xzaxx]

@DrPrasad1 ok. so have you a video posted that shows the results? im more interrested inacell prp injection. did it work. did the patient got new hair with the injection?

[DrPrasad1]

@xzaxx Some of the results are on Dr. Hitzig's site focusing on hair restoration - NYHairloss[dot]com . The combination of ACell with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) provides adult stem cells and growth factors. These adult stem cells are converted into active Progenitor Cells which act to shield the affected hair from the effects of 5 DHT

[noorur]

Thank you very much Dr Prasad for upload this video. It answered alot of questions for alot of viewers, myself included. Is there any after pics of the patient who you treated on this video ?? Thanks

[DrPrasad1]

@noorur Since this patient recently had hair transplant surgery using ACell MatriStem, it is still too early for the after pictures. Should we also get this patient's consent to share before and after photos of hair restoration, we would be happy to show results on our website.

[WhiteMoonLights]

acell fails,i already do some researched.when you insert the needle you are damaging hair follicles.and plucked hair will most like wont seed

[DrPrasad1]

@WhiteMoonLights The idea is to damage the follicles so they heal with healthy stem cells. Plucking is a whole different procedure in which the plucked hairs are inserted into bald areas by creating a site with a special blade. If you have any other questions, please give our office a call.

[wilymon]

Also, what is the benefit of using different concentrations of Acell in different areas? Why not just use a high concentration on the entire scalp? Would this cause damage? Is it simply a technique to save the patient some money?

[DrPrasad1]

@wilymon The ACell concentrations are varied according to the strength needed for each area. It would be costly, possibly and overkill to use high concentrations of ACell randomly throughout the scalp. The protocol is designed to be the most effective.

[wilymon]

Thanks for the constant Acell videos. Are the hair grafts implanted in the holes made by the acell needle or is a different instrument used for this? if a different instrument is used, how do you prevent confusing the two?

[DrPrasad1]

@wilymon No the sites are made with special blades which separate the skin making a site equal in size and shape to the grafts.
