## Resource

Hair restoration surgery has come a long way, and today’s results can look incredibly natural when the right technique and patient come together. Dr. Koehler, Dr. Gardner, and Kirstin explain how NeoGraft and follicular unit extraction (FUE) have changed the game, and why most people choose these methods over older strip techniques. Find out who’s a good fit for hair restoration surgery, what the procedure and recovery are like, and why managing expectations matters just as much as the surgery itself. Plus, get the truth on common myths about hair transplants, the importance of post-op care, and how you can camouflage your recovery if you don’t want anyone to know about it.
