Visit to Dr. Ivan Cohen’s clinic in Fairfield, Connecticut

Dr. Cohen is dedicated full time to [tag]hair transplantation[/tag] and was among the first surgeons to utilize the microscope in preparing [tag]follicular unit grafts[/tag]. It was obvious after observing him and his staff performing surgery that they have stayed on the cutting edge of the most recent evolutions and refinements in hair transplantation, including recent ultra refined techniques.

His experienced staff of seven medical technicians is composed mostly of professional nurses. I was very impressed by their careful, meticulous and refined graft trimming, which was all done using microscopes. Given his large and well trained staff, Dr. Cohen can provide his patients with sessions in excess of 2,500 [tag]follicular unit grafts[/tag] with uncompromising quality.

He uses the custom blade cutter to create tiny blades and minimally invasive incisions that are as small as 0.7 mm.

He also performs the [tag]Trichophytic closure[/tag] to minimize any visible scarring in the donor area. Dr. Cohen also prefers to remove narrow strips that do not exceed 1.5 cm in width.

Dr. Cohen has a strong background in dermatology and scalp/hair loss conditions and lectures on hair transplantation and hair loss at the Yale University School of Medicine where he is an associate clinical professor of dermatology.
