Understanding Hair Loss

Hair loss can occur for various reasons, with pattern hair loss being a common cause. This condition is characterized by the gradual miniaturization of hair follicles, resulting in progressively thin, short, and less pigmented hair. Other factors that may contribute to hair loss include:

  • Genetic predisposition
  • Aging
  • Stress and trauma
  • Medical conditions and treatments
  • Nutritional deficiencies
The first step in effective treatment is understanding your specific type of hair loss and its underlying causes. During your consultation, Dr. Rawnsley performs a thorough evaluation of your scalp condition, existing hair, hair density, and medical history to develop an appropriate strategy for restoring your hair.

Our Comprehensive Solutions for Hair Loss

Dr. Rawnsley offers several specialized approaches to rhinoplasty, each addressing specific needs:

Advanced Hair Transplantation

For patients seeking permanent hair solutions, Dr. Rawnsley specializes in state-of-the-art hair transplant surgeries that deliver natural-looking results. The type of hair transplant recommended will depend on your specific needs:

FUE

Explore Procedure
FUE Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction)
A minimally invasive technique where individual hair follicles are removed from the donor site at the back of the head and transplanted to thinning areas. This approach results in virtually invisible scarring and is ideal for patients who prefer to wear their hair short.

FUT

Explore Procedure
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)
Also known as the strip method, this type of surgery involves removing a strip of skin with hair from the donor area. Individual hair grafts are then prepared and transplanted to create density where needed. This technique maximizes the number of grafts available for extensive hair loss.

Specialized

Explore Procedure
Specialized Transplants
Including eyebrow and beard restoration using the same meticulous techniques for harvesting hair follicles from one area and placing them where growth is limited.
The transplanted hair may initially shed within the first few weeks after surgery, but new hair growth typically begins within 3-4 months. Depending on how much hair is being transplanted, the procedure may take several hours, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days after surgery.

Non-Surgical Hair Restoration Options

Not every patient requires surgery to achieve meaningful improvements. Hair loss treatments without surgery include:

PRP

Explore Procedure
PRP Therapy
Using your body's own healing factors to stimulate hair follicles and encourage new hair growth

Medication

Medication Management
Prescription treatments to slow hair loss due to hormonal factors and promote growth of healthy hair

The Rawnsley Approach to Renewing Your Hair

What distinguishes Dr. Rawnsley's approach to addressing hair loss is his understanding that successful treatment isn't simply about replacing lost hair—it's about restoring confidence through natural-looking results. As one of the few surgeons who specialize in hair restoration in Los Angeles, Dr. Rawnsley has developed advanced hair restoration techniques that prioritize aesthetic outcomes.

A Focus on Artistry

Dr. Rawnsley approaches each case with the eye of an artist and the precision of a microsurgeon. When harvesting hair follicles from the donor site and placing them in recipient areas, he considers:

Facial Proportions

Creating harmony between your hairline and facial features

Age-Appropriate Design

Ensuring results look natural now and as you age

Hair Characteristics

Working with your existing hair type, color, and texture for seamless integration of new hair with the rest of your hair

Growth Patterns

Matching the natural direction and angle of your original hair

Hair Density

Strategically placing individual hair follicles to create the appearance of fullness, even with limited donor hair
The FUE restoration technique, which Dr. Rawnsley has refined over years of practice, allows for the precise removal of hair follicles one by one, minimizing damage to surrounding tissue and creating natural-looking results where the scalp where hair has been placed is indistinguishable from areas with naturally growing hair.

Personalized Treatment Planning

No two cases of hair loss are identical. Dr. Rawnsley develops customized plans that may combine different techniques for optimal results. During your consultation, he'll discuss:
  • The extent and pattern of your hair loss
  • Whether you have enough hair in donor areas for transplantation
  • Realistic expectations about the cost of hair transplant procedures
  • Whether you're a candidate to get a hair transplant
  • Long-term management strategies to protect the rest of your hair
Modern hair restoration methods have come a long way from obvious "hair plugs" of the past. Today's transplant techniques involve moving hair from one place on your scalp (typically the back or sides) to areas with thinning or no hair. When performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Rawnsley with extensive experience in hair transplantation, the results can be remarkably natural, with transplanted hair growing just like your original hair.

The Consultation Experience

Your journey to renewed hair fullness begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Rawnsley:

  • Evaluates your scalp and existing hair
  • Discusses your hair restoration goals
  • Explains appropriate treatment options
  • Answers all your questions and concerns
  • Develops a personalized treatment plan

This consultation serves as an educational opportunity where you'll gain a deeper understanding of your hair loss and the various ways it can be effectively treated.

Is Treatment for Hair Loss Right for You?

Ideal candidates for hair replacement surgery and other hair restoration or hair loss treatments typically:

  • Have sufficient donor hair for transplantation procedures
  • Are in good general health
  • Have realistic expectations about results
  • Have stabilized hair loss or are willing to address ongoing loss

Dr. Rawnsley may recommend adding medical therapies to surgical options to maintain existing hair while adding additional hair through transplantation. The goal is to help you achieve the most natural-looking and long-lasting improvement.
