Hair Transplant Techniques
Dr Alba Reyes has expertise in the treatment of all types of hair loss. She is a highly-qualified and recognized American Board certified surgeon for hair transplant surgery. She is famous in many countries for giving excellent results for her patients, which include celebrities, politicians and business men and women.
Dr Alba Reyes and her team can transplant over 5000 grafts (1, 2 and 3 hairs per graft) in one procedure (while her team can do much more, there is often a constraint in the donor area).
Follicular Unit Transplantation is a relatively newer surgical technique where the hair is transplanted in their original groups of 1-3 hairs, and it allows a patient to achieve a very natural look and feel from hair transplants. Since the Follicular Units are complete hair units, transplanting them as units increases the chances of natural growth after transplantation.
Following video demonstrates preparation work for a hair transplant, which includes sleeving donor's strip.
Micrografts are parts of the scalp that contain one, two or three follicular units. Mini grafts contain from four to eight capillary follicles. These small units of hair allow the creation of a natural appearance replacing the baby doll look, or the toothbrush look that has been thus far associated with hair transplant surgery. Dr. Alba Reyes places micro grafts of one to three hairs in small receptive incisions (0.5mm-0.9mm), along the scalp, generally along the hairline to give a natural and attractive look. With this technique, as well as the expertise and the unique artistic approach of Dr. Alba Reyes Sagiv, a natural appearance is achieved.
Megasessions and SuperMegasessions are hair transplant procedures, where in a large number of micro grafts are transplanted in a single surgical procedure (in case of a SuperMegasession as many as 7000-10000 hair follicles are transplanted).
Based on experience from over a thousand hair transplants, Dr. Alba Reyes believes that a megasession would be the best option for her patients in most cases. A SuperMegasession procedure could apply on fewer individuals because it requires an excellent donor zone in order to obtain a bigger amount of follicles.

"I just wanted to thank you and Dr. Alba for your patience and kindness that you had with me in the Dominican Republic. I am very happy with the procedure and I was very amazed on how loving and caring Dr. Alba is. Just by talking to her you can feel that she cares for her patients and wants to do the very best job that she can. Tell her that I will always remember her and always be grateful." – A Satisfied Patient
"I was treated with such warmth and kind attention by you and your staff that by the time my surgery started at noon, my fears of a painful procedure were quickly put to rest. Looking back I can say that I did not feel anything. My surgery went for over 8 hours and 8000 grafts later I can say that I could not be happier with the results! Most surgeons would have stopped after carefully counting and reaching the number of grafts the patient had paid for. You place a higher priority on the needs of your patient by using as many grafts as can be used for one procedure all in the name of patient satisfaction. It is no wonder that your availability for new surgeries is nearly 3 months out, and I’m sure as your reputation gains notoriety it will be even harder to get in." - A Satisfied Patient
