Which Hair Restoration Approach Is Right for Me?
The right hair restoration treatment depends on your pattern of hair loss, hair density, donor hair availability, scalp health, medical history, and long-term goals. Some patients benefit most from surgical hair restoration, while others may be better candidates for nonsurgical treatments, at-home product protocols, or a combination approach.
You’ll receive a personalized treatment plan outlining which options are most appropriate for you after Dr. Ortiz conducts a thorough evaluation of your scalp and hair loss patterns.
A Personalized, Comprehensive Plan for Fuller, Healthier Hair
Dr. Ortiz and our team address your hair restoration goals from multiple angles, taking a comprehensive approach:
- Restoring density where hair has been lost
- Supporting healthier growth in existing hair
- Helping you maintain your results over time
Hair restoration may address the hairline, temples, crown, thinning areas, beard, or eyebrows, depending on your anatomy and goals.
How Does Hair Restoration Work at North Raleigh Plastic Surgery?
Every hair restoration treatment begins with a thorough assessment of your scalp, hair type, stage of hair loss, goals, and lifestyle. Dr. Ortiz then recommends a personalized plan, and treatment is performed using advanced Anagen Hair Restoration grafts and techniques.
In-Office Hair Restoration
For patients with more advanced or patterned hair loss, Dr. Ortiz may recommend an in-office hair restoration procedure, such as:
Follicular unit extraction (FUE hair transplant)
A motor-assisted technique that removes individual hair follicles from a donor area and carefully places them in areas where more density is desired.
Strip method (FUT hair transplant)
A surgical technique that removes a strip of donor tissue, allowing follicular units to be harvested and transplanted to areas of thinning hair. This approach may be recommended for some women experiencing hair loss.
Dr. Ortiz may also integrate platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) to promote graft survival and hair growth. To support comfort and precision, Dr. Ortiz uses local anesthesia numbing techniques, including nerve blocks and tumescent solutions, to properly prepare the scalp before graft placement.
Each treatment plan emphasizes natural-looking results, including the shape of the hairline, the direction of hair growth, facial balance, and considerations for future hair loss.
Nonsurgical Hair Growth Support
At North Raleigh Plastic Surgery, we offer nonsurgical hair restoration options for patients with early thinning, diffuse shedding, or those who want to support the health of existing hair.
Anagen hair restoration supports a multi-modality approach that may include:
Low-level light therapy
Scalp care
Clinically proven supplements and topical products
These options can be used on their own or as part of a larger plan before or after an in-office procedure. Consistent support contributes to a healthier scalp environment and encourages stronger, fuller-looking hair over time.

Hair Restoration FAQ
What is hair restoration?
Hair restoration includes surgical and nonsurgical treatments designed to help men and women improve thinning hair, restore density, and support healthier hair growth. Depending on your needs, your plan may include an in-office procedure, regenerative support, low-level light therapy, at-home hair-growth products, or a combination of these treatments.
Am I a candidate for hair restoration?
You may be a candidate if you have thinning hair, a receding hairline, a widening part, patchy facial hair, or areas where you would like improved density. The best option depends on your hair loss pattern, donor hair, overall health, and goals.
Is hair restoration only for men?
No. While hair restoration is a popular male cosmetic procedure, it is also appropriate for women concerned about hair thinning. Men often notice recession at the hairline or crown, while women may experience more diffuse thinning or widening in the part.
When will I see results?
Hair restoration results develop gradually. Some shedding is expected early on, and new growth typically begins in the months that follow. Many patients see visible improvement around 6 to 9 months, with results continuing to mature over 12 to 18 months.
Do body hair restoration and facial hair restoration results look natural?
Hair restoration results can look very natural when the treatment plan is customized to your hair type, facial features, hairline, and pattern of hair loss. After careful evaluation, each treatment plan is crafted with attention to density, placement, and long-term hair growth patterns.
Can I combine in-office treatment with at-home products?
Yes. Many patients benefit from a combined approach. At-home products may help support scalp health, encourage stronger-looking hair, and maintain results after treatment.
