Why Certification Matters
Any individual with a medical license can legally perform hair restoration surgery.
As a result, the surgical and aesthetic skill level of a physician offering to perform hair transplant surgery can vary significantly. Although genetic hair loss is common and usually easy to diagnose, it is important that your physician understands the causes of hair loss and is properly trained to diagnose and treat other causes of hair loss properly.
Every ABHRS Diplomate has demonstrated proficiency in extensive written and oral examinations, each statistically validated with regard to their ability to discriminate between those whose practice habits are consistent with safe, aesthetically sensitive hair restoration surgery.
