Each year, the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons (ISHRS) honors the most talented and dedicated hair transplant surgeon with the coveted Platinum Follicle Award. The Platinum follicle is typically awarded to one deserving physician each year for their outstanding achievements in basic science of clinically-related research in hair pathophysiology or anatomy as related to hair restoration.

This year, we’re proud to announce that Coalition hair transplant surgeons Dr. Bessam Farjo and Dr. Nilofer Farjo were presented this prestigious award.

As our only recommended hair transplant surgeons in the U.K., Dr. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo have the honor of treating a large number of hair loss sufferers from both Europe and abroad each and every day. Given their dedication to ultra refined follicular unit hair transplantation, their patients, and innovating future hair loss treatments, we could think of nobody more deserving of the Platinum Follicle than Drs. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Bessam and Nilofer Farjo on winning the Platinum Follicle Award at this year’s 2012 ISHRS Scientific Meeting in the Bahamas.

While the vast majority of hair restoration physicians understand and respect the right of patients to post and express their genuine concerns, some, like Dr. Lawrence Shapiro, attempt to use legal intimidation to have critical comments removed from our patient run discussion forum. While some discussion forums give in to such legal bullying, we never do.

While we are willing to work with good faith physicians who have legitimate concerns, Dr. Larry Shapiro’s attorney initially contacted us and demanded that we remove all references to Dr. Lawrence Shapiro and the Dr. Shapiro’s Hair Institute. We have not and never will give in to such legal intimidation to censor genuine critical comments of any physician, recommended or not.

Those who have been active members of the Hair Transplant Network and its hair restoration discussion forum know that we have fought similar legal attempts to white wash our forum and compromise its integrity until such frivolous lawsuits have been dismissed.

We ask for your support. If you have any information about Dr. Larry Shapiro that may support our defense of patient free speech we encourage you to contact us or exercise your right to free speech on our discussion forum and post your thoughts on the topic “Dr. Larry Shapiro’s Lawsuit Against this Patient Based Forum Community.” Dr. Lawrence Shapiro and his staff are also invited to post on this topic why they are suing this community and demanding that all references to them be deleted without providing any justification to date.

Coalition hair transplant surgeon Dr. Jerry Cooley is known for his innovative nature and dedication to state-of-the-art hair restoration. Recently, Dr. Cooley turned his attention to the budding field of robotic assisted follicular unit extraction (FUE) and began researching the new ARTAS FUE device. After investigating the system, Dr. Cooley concluded that the ARTAS was effective and decided to integrate the device into his practice.

After learning about Dr. Cooley’s acquisition of the ARTAS system, we interviewed him for his input on the device.  Below, Dr. Cooley provides his expert advice and how he plans to integrate the ARTAS into his state of the art hair transplantation practice.

Why did you purchase the ARTAS device? 

I have been doing FUE hair transplant procedures in my practice for about 10 years, but up until a year ago, it represented only a tiny fraction of my procedures.  Over the past year, I have found myself doing more and more FUE and I see that trend continuing.  While I continue to be a big proponent of strip harvesting, I also see a growing portion of my patients who are good candidates for FUE.  For example, young men who wear their hair very short, many of whom work out a good deal and may be very worried about the chance of having a noticeable linear scar, or patients who have had prior strip surgeries and have little to no scalp laxity left in their scalps.  Most patients who come to see me are still great candidates for strip surgery – e.g. men who have decent scalp laxity and wear their hair medium length, and all women.  I see strip and FUE procedures peacefully coexisting in my practice over the next 10 years.

Only an elite group of hair restoration physicians who regularly perform ultra refined hair transplants with outstanding results are invited to join the high ranks of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians. To see our demanding standards for the Coalition, click here.

Recently, we sought the input and opinions from hair loss forum members about potentially inviting Dr. Vladimir Panine to join the ranks of the Coalition. The input we received from his patients and other members of our community have been very supportive and positive. To see what our members are saying, visit the discussion topic “Potential Coalition Membership for Dr. Vladimir Panine of River Grove, Illinois“.

The forum topic about Dr. Panine’s potential Coalition membership also includes numerous examples of his large, ultra refined procedures and results. To see additional examples of his impressive results, visit the “Results Posted by Leading Hair Restoration Clinics” forum.

Given Dr. Panine’s dedication to providing his patients with excellent results and the support we received from patient and physician members of our community regarding his inclusion, we’d like to congratulate him on being approved for membership in the Coalition. You can view Dr. Panine’s Coalition profile by clicking here.

Thanks to everyone who provided their valuable feedback regarding Dr. Panine’s potential Coalition membership. You are encouraged to congratulate him by visiting his potential coalition membership topic above.

For hair loss sufferers considering hair transplant surgery in Illinois and beyond, we strongly encourage you to consult with and consider Dr. Vladimir Panine for your next procedure.

We’re proud to announce that hair restoration surgeon Dr. Radha Rani Palakurthi has been approved for recommendation at the Hair Transplant Network.

View the official Press Release

Over the past several months, Dr. Radha continually impressed our hair restoration community with a clear level of hair loss expertise and an array of impressive hair transplantation cases. Dr. Radha achieves such excellent results by utilizing state-of-the-art transplantation techniques and the ability to densely pack up to 3,000 follicular unit grafts in a single session (when appropriate for the patient). In addition to her impressive skills as a clinician, Dr. Radha is also highly respected by her peers and was even trained by Coalition hair transplant surgeon Dr. Damkerng Pathomvanich.

Furthermore, because Dr. Radha practices in Andhra Pradesh, India – a region serving a large number of hair loss sufferers, we’re pleased to recommend another quality physician to help meet the area’s growing hair restoration demand.

Selecting a quality hair restoration surgeon is crucial to obtaining dense and natural looking hair transplant results. This is why patients have the final say as to which physicians are recommended on the Hair Transplant Network.  Thus, we’d like your input regarding the potential recommendation of Dr. Sanusi Umar of Redondo Beach, California.

Dr. Umar is arguably the world’s foremost expert in BHT (Body Hair Transplants – transferring body hair follicles to balding areas of the scalp) and has been performing advanced follicular unit extraction (FUE) procedures at his clinic in Redondo Beach, California since 2005. Dr. Umar is very hands on and extracts and places all FUE and BHT grafts himself.

Dr. Umar developed a passion for alternative hair transplantation due to a botched 400 graft strip surgery he endured several years ago. Dr. Umar’s specialty is in state of the art FUE and specialty repair cases.

You are encouraged to view the Potential Recommendation of Dr. Sanusi Umar to view the highlights regarding Dr. Umar, his credentials and his patient photos.
