Celebrate Independence from Hair Loss with Bauman Medical
by Alan J. Bauman, MD, ABHRS
The great Benjamin Franklin once said, “Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.” A quote that could be applied to almost any everyday scenario. And with America celebrating its 250th birthday, I’ve been thinking back to this line from one of our Founding Fathers and how it applies to hair loss.
For too long, Americans have been forced to wear hats or toupees to combat a thinned-out crown or receding hairline. Just as our country declared independence 250 years ago, my team and I at Bauman Medical are making our own declaration. This year, we declare freedom from hair loss with techniques and treatments that even the Whig Party could get behind.
While Independence Day and July as a whole are times to get outside and take in the sun, let this year be the one where you rebel against the tyranny of hair loss. With a few tricks up our sleeve, Bauman Medical is your one-stop shop for all things hair restoration.
CRTgroTM
At Bauman Medical, we’re always looking to revolutionize and expand upon our many hair restoration treatments. Our latest endeavor, CRTgro™, is a prime choice for those beginning to notice the effects of androgenetic alopecia.
This advanced, minimally invasive treatment delivers customized hair growth medications directly to the scalp via precise microinfusion. CRTgro™ primarily uses low-dose minoxidil and dutasteride, with the option to add further enhancements such as copper peptides, exosomes, or our state-of-the-art STEMgro™.
The targeted drug delivery is coupled with regenerative stimulation to get those dormant follicles stimulated, while also improving overall hair density and thickness. How does this compare to regular topicals? Because the medication is infused through the skin barrier, it allows for better absorption, while also triggering natural healing through micro-injuries.
This painless treatment takes less than an hour and causes no discomfort, as the medications are infused using gentle, brush-like strokes. Think of it as a day at the spa, complete with a thorough scalp cleanse and low-level laser therapy session.
Patients typically see measurable improvements in the three-month range, with visible thickening and density gains following around the four to six-month period. After completing the full series of six monthly sessions, you can expect to achieve optimal results.
Interested so far? Well, here’s the best part: CRTgro™ works perfectly with other options at Bauman Medical, creating stronger results when paired with our staples like:
PRP Platelet-Rich Plasma
One of the more common combinations with CRTgro™, PRP is to Bauman Medical what red, white, and blue is to America: an essential. All that’s needed is a small sample of blood from you for healing powers that will renew your scalp. See, your blood features platelets that, when concentrated and injected back into the scalp, encourage hair growth. Just like CRTgroTM, this painless procedure takes about an hour with no side effects.
PDOgroTM
Did Benjamin Franklin stop once he created the bifocals? Of course not! He went on to create the lightning rod, too. As mentioned earlier, Bauman Medical strives to continue making improvements even when we’ve struck gold. The already great PRP, when coupled with the state-of-the-art thin and absorbable polydioxanone threads of PDOgro™, allows for more effective hair growth compared to a single PRP session. This is due to the threads’ ability to stimulate endogenous collagen production, elastin, hyaluronic acid, new blood vessel formation, and fibroblast activity, all of which lead to stronger, fuller hair.
TED
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were all key tenets of the Declaration of Independence. In the realm of hair freedom, you need increased blood flow, stronger fibers, and stimulated hair follicles. With our TransEpidermal Delivery (TED), we’re able to get all three of those factors back on track and reduce shedding. TED’s non-invasive growth serum is applied via sound waves and air pressure, allowing for hair growth factors to be applied with ease.
TED w/Exosomes
Gone are the days of communicating by letter with a feather quill by candlelight. At least, that’s the case for exosomes, which provide the body with nucleic acids, growth, and other proteins that are essential for hair rejuvenation and repair. Close or far, it doesn’t bother exosomes, and when paired with TED, you get even better results.
Bauman TURBO LaserCap
No more baseball caps or, in the case of our Founding Fathers, powdered wigs. With the Bauman Turbo LaserCap®, even Washington himself would be showing off his flow. FDA-cleared, drug-free, chemical-free, side-effect-free, and non-invasive, all it takes is five minutes of use for that screams freedom!
FoLix
Just like how many great minds came together to sign the Declaration of Independence, Bauman Medical is proud to work with the experts at Lumenis to craft FoLix, a groundbreaking, FDA-cleared fractional laser treatment.
FoLix utilizes a non-ablative laser, which provides the benefits found from laser therapy without damaging the outer layer of skin. It creates microscopic thermal zones on your scalp that help activate your body’s natural regenerative processes. So now, those dormant hair follicles start to wake up and feel energetic, leading to thicker, healthier hair growth in no time. No intense heat or scarring, just a specific cooling handpiece that allows our team to target follicle-rich areas in a non-invasive manner.
