The Advantages of MMM
Using the Microscopically Magnified
Micrografting technique, our Doctors produce minute grafts of
one to four hair follicular units and transplant them into balding
areas. When performed by highly skilled individuals such as
the Doctors Limmer and their staff, the results of this procedure
are indistinguishable from normal hair growth. For this
reason, Dr. Limmer's technique is now employed by many of the
world's best Hair Transplant Surgeons.
In 1996 Dr. B.L. Limmer became the
first, and still the only, American recipient of the Platinum
Follicle Award from the International Society of Hair Restoration
Surgery, a recognition given annually to one individual for the most
outstanding research work world wide in the anatomy and physiology
of hair.
The Microscope Makes the
Difference
Microscopically Magnified
Micrografting is a technique that goes beyond the standard approach
to micrograft hair transplantation. After a strip of hair is
carefully removed from the donor site (typically in the back of the
scalp), it is placed under a powerful microscope so follicular units
(micrografts) can be meticulously produced. The quality and
size of grafts produced by this technique can not be matched by any
other method.
Through careful donor harvest and
dissection under Binocular Stereoscopic Magnification, you may
obtain ten to thirty percent more hair from your donor area.
This is particularly important for patients with gray or blond hair,
because light-color grafts are difficult to see with the naked eye; superior
visualization results in less graft destruction.
Dense packing of these carefully
dissected micrografts is possible, requiring far fewer transplant
sessions to achieve an elegant cosmetic effect. The results
are so natural that most people will never know that you've had a
transplant.
The technique can also be used to
recreate lost eyebrows, eyelashes, beards and mustaches, as well as
to cover scars.
