HAIR RESTORATION
Male Hair Restoration (Hair Replacement)
Naples Plastic Surgery
One of the things that Gardner Plastic Surgery is really getting into lately is hair surgery–both for men and women. We have hair removal systems which consist of a laser, one of which is almost painless to remove unwanted hair in places like the upper lip for women, cheeks, under the arms and bikini line. And then hair replacement is becoming very popular–it used to be that we would take plugs and put them in the scalp where hair was missing nut it always looked sort of odd like cornrows.
The most recent innovations are micro-graphs, literally one or two hair follicles that are placed in the scalp where there’s hair missing, and it looks much more natural and gives a nice natural wave. The latest innovation is a machine called the NeoGraft. The NeoGraft actually uses a suction apparatus to harvest the grafts so we’re able to avoid that long scar in the back of the hair and that helps with things like numbness or even eventually if hair is lost back there–the avoidance of that scar.
So, come visit us at Gardner Plastic Surgery to see what your options are for hair removal and replacement.
Your Hair Restoration Procedure
Depending on the area being treated, different methods may be utilized for your hair transplant or restoration. In every case, hair follicles are re-positioned from one area to the thinning or balding area. Your surgeon, either Dr. Paul Gardner or Dr. Leo Baccaro, will start by using local anesthetic in the areas used for both donating and receiving the hair follicles. The doctor will then divide the removed area of hair follicles into many small segments, each holding anywhere from a single strand to multiple hairs, which will be transplanted into the balding or thinning areas. Typically, scars are hardly noticeable because they are covered by hair.
Your Hair Restoration Options
- NeoGraft® Follicular Unit Extraction – This groundbreaking method of hair transplantation removes individual hair follicles from the scalp in their naturally occurring groupings of about 1-4 hairs and then places them in the areas of the scalp where balding has occurred. It is the least invasive procedure for hair transplantation, using no stitches or staples and leaving no unsightly scars.
- Stem Cell Injections- Stem cells are harvested from the blood and injected into the scalp to promote hair growth.
- Strip Harvesting – A strip of hair is removed, typically from the back of the head. The strip is then divided into several pieces and transplanted to the balding area.
- Follicular Unit Extraction – The actual hair follicles are taken from a large area around the head and then placed in the thinning or bald area.
- Flap Surgery – A section of the balding area is replaced with skin that contains active hair follicles. It will cover a large area of baldness and hair will grow back immediately.
- Scalp Reduction – Typically performed in addition to hair transplants. A section of bald scalp is removed, and skin containing active hair follicles is pulled to fill the area.
Your Hair Restoration Scars & Incisions
Dr. Gardner or Dr. Baccaro will work with you to assess exactly where hair follicles should be removed for transplant. Your surgeon will point out which locations provide the most discreet areas to perform incisions with minimal scar visibility. Typically, scars are unnoticeable as they will be covered by hair. Speak with your surgeon about your options, concerns, and aesthetic goals.
How Long Will My Results Last?
Your hair transplant or restoration should last indefinitely. Every patient is different, and you should understand that treatment may take up to several years depending on the severity of your personal hair loss situation. Sometimes, additional loss of your original hair may occur, or the hair may not look as full as you would like. In cases like these, you can schedule an additional procedure at Naples Plastic Surgery, and we will continue to do all we can to help you achieve your hair restoration goals.

Works with You for a Great Result
Dr. Walsh is excellent, very patient, and takes the time to listen to your questions and concerns and puts you at ease. He works with you for a great surgery result.
I have been through a lot since undergoing a bi-lateral mastectomy and many reconstructive surgeries that did not go well. I was referred to Dr. Walsh. From the first visit, I knew I was in good hands. I have had amazing results, they look great and I am very happy to feel whole again. He is a great surgeon!
His staff is awesome, they communicate well, and it is a very happy environment, always a pleasure to walk into the office. I highly recommend Naples Plastic Surgery!!
Patient and Professional
Dr Mark Walsh was very patient and professional when asking about my problem. He told me what will be happening for the surgery. Thanks very much.
Very Caring for Patients
Dr. Walsh and his Staff showed concern and were very caring for their Patients!
Dr Gardner is the BEST!
I have been a patient of Dr. Gardners for many years. His ability to relate to his patients is a very calming and caring characteristic. He answers questions with patience and above all, no pressure. The surgeries that I have had, fat augmentation and a neck/chin lift have given me a renewed and fresh look without appearing as if it’s not a totally natural look. I continue to have fillers and Botox by Dr. Gardner and would NEVER consider going to someone else for these procedures.
The staff are incredible! They know their patients by name, interact in a supportive manner and most of all, are very knowledgeable about the procedures and always willing and able to answer questions.
I would very highly recommend Dr. Gardner and his staff.
Simply masterful with a kind soul
Dr. Gardner is simply masterful and a kind soul. He takes great pride in his work and has the experience and expertise to take initiative to achieve the best outcome for patients beyond expectation, often having to adapt to unexpected obstacles from patient history. Experiencing significant pain I went to see Dr. Gardner as a repeat patient, expecting a routine implant revision due to a failure of a fifteen year old reduction procedure. Instead, Dr. Gardner had to remove a significant growth and essentially rebuild the sins of the past into results that realistically were better than had ever presented in my youth, all with minimal incisions and recovery. This is the doctor you seek for exceptional cases and care – you are worth it. He is worthy. Special appreciation to his staff, all of whom genuinely take an interest and embody the values Dr. Gardner brings to the table.
Very Pleasant, Informative, and Thorough
My Visit to Naples Surgery was very pleasant and informative. Walking into the office, she greeted by several very friendly receptionist, very accommodating. Dr Baccaro Was very thorough in going through options for my procedure gave me some thought on how I want to proceed.
Listens and Answers ALL Questions
Dr. Walsh listens to you and answers all questions. The staff is very professional yet friendly and kind.
Amazing Transformation and Exceptional Care
I am incredibly thankful to Dr. Walsh for the amazing transformation he’s given me. I had a skin removal tummy tuck with liposuction and Renuvion, and the results have been life-changing. Dr. Walsh’s expertise and attention to detail made me feel confident throughout the process. He listened to my concerns and tailored the procedure to my needs.
The recovery was smooth thanks to his thorough aftercare instructions and the constant support of his team. Dr. Walsh even came into the office the day after surgery, a Saturday, to check on me, which showed his true commitment to me.
I also want to highlight how wonderful and kind the entire office staff is. Everyone was helpful and made me feel comfortable every step of the way.
I highly recommend Dr. Walsh for anyone considering cosmetic surgery. His skill, professionalism, and dedication are truly exceptional.
Beyond helpful and kind
Dr Baccaro and his team went above and beyond for my breast augmentation surgery. From the consultation to every single post op appointment they were beyond helpful and kind.
I had my implants for 10 years and had significant loss in volume and was afraid I needed a lift but Dr Baccaro was able to give me the perfect new pair without a lift and I am beyond happy with the results. Besides that he also fixed my visible scarring that were left behind from the previous surgeon.
His work is beyond excellent and both him and his team are amazing people.
Months later I went in for lip and nose filler and AGAIN I was left speechless with his work. I have never done any filler in my nose and always wanted a nosejob to fix a bump on my bridge and with less than 1ml in both lips and nose he was able to give me the side profile of my dreams.
Thank you Dr Baccaro and the amazing team. I will 10000% recommend you to anyone I meet needing a procedure done and will continue using your services.
Very pleasant to work with
I am very happy with my experience with Naples plastic surgery and will definitely use them again in the future! I had breast implants that were 34 years old and I had them replaced by Dr Walsh. Believe it or not even after all that time one of the implants was still fully intact when he took it out, the other one had begun to show signs of gumminess from age. Everyone from the office staff, to the doctor himself were very pleasant to work with and overall was a great experience here.
