LA JOLLA, CA, April 13, 2014 (Press-News.org) Triple board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Richard A. Chaffoo (www.hairtransplantsurgeonsandiego.com) has launched a new website that helps patients understand the advanced techniques his hair restoration team uses for San Diego-area patients.
"By having a website dedicated exclusively to our Hair Surgery Center, we're providing an excellent resource for patients in the process of learning about advanced solutions such as the NeoGraft system," Dr. Chaffoo says.
San Diego County men and women interested in the Hair Surgery Center at La Jolla Plastic Surgery & Dermatology can use the website to learn why hair restoration surgery is best performed at a practice that combines the expertise of a board-certified dermatologist and a board-certified plastic surgeon.
"Hair loss can be caused by genetics or medical concerns," Dr. Chaffoo says, "so it's a good idea to be seen by physicians with specialized training and experience in diagnosing and treating all medical causes of hair loss."
Dr. Chaffoo is the director of the hair restoration surgical team that includes co-director Dr. Susan Stuart, a renowned dermatologist who served 2 terms as chief of the dermatology division at Scripps Memorial Hospital. Dr. Stuart has extensive experience diagnosing the causes of hair loss, which enables her to recommend effective treatment options for her patients.
Patients in the San Diego area considering hair transplant surgery might be surprised to learn that many doctors offering hair restoration services have no special training or experience. In fact, it's rare to find a facility such as the Hair Surgery Center directed by physicians with the experience and qualifications of Dr. Chaffoo and Dr. Stuart.
"Our new website is a learning tool designed to help men and women choose wisely when considering a hair restoration specialist," Dr. Chaffoo says. "Hair transplants are surgical procedures that require the knowledge and skills of a physician with special training to be safely done."
Dr. Richard Chaffoo of the Hair Surgery Center at La Jolla Plastic Surgery & Dermatology (www.hairtransplantsurgeonsandiego.com) is a triple-board-certified plastic surgeon and a leader in hair transplantation methods. In addition, he has a thriving practice in breast augmentation, facial rejuvenation and body contouring, serving patients at his offices in La Jolla and Murrieta. Dr. Chaffoo is certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery, American Board of Otolaryngology, and American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. His background includes a postgraduate fellowship at Stanford University in facial plastic surgery, which was accredited by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS). He is the only board-certified plastic surgeon in San Diego County who has completed such a fellowship. He also completed an advanced postgraduate fellowship at U.C. San Diego. He has lectured extensively and has had numerous articles published in peer-reviewed professional journals. At his practice in La Jolla, he works closely with Dr. Susan Stuart, a respected dermatologist and laser specialist.
