The Best Hair Transplant In Burlingame Is In Foster City

Burlingame. Ah, the City of Trees! All those splendid eucalyptus trees that are actually protected by the ordinance of 1908 passed by the Burlingame Board of Trustees prohibiting “cutting, injuring, or destroying the trees”. It is a lovely little city (population just over 30,000) and the people are friendly too.

However, if you want a Burlingame hair transplant we don’t know of anywhere you can get one in the city. You need to hop in the car and come over to Foster City where you will find Silicon Valley Hair Institute. It’s only a ten minute drive, after all.

This is renowned as the place where you can get the most authentic hair transplants in the Bay Area, and even in the whole of California, because it is under the direction of Miguel Canales, MD. Dr Canales operates the ARTAS Robotic System of hair transplants which provides the finest possible hair transplants, since the hair follicles are transplanted not by a human, but by a robot.

Let’s Look At The Difference

Let’s look at the difference between a manual hair transplant and a robotic one. When you have a manual hair transplant a strip of hair at the back of your head is removed and the hair follicles it contains will be used in the recipient site. The size of the strip will depend on how many hair follicles are required. Unfortunately, this leaves a wound which will heal leaving a scar, which means that you will always have to leave your hair long enough to cover it.

The robotic transplant removes hair follicles from the donor site in groups of up to four at a time, and as a result leaves no visible scar whatsoever. When you have your so-called “Burlingame hair transplant” in Foster City the robot will insert the follicles on the recipient site so that the hair exactly matches the angle and direction of growth of any existing hair there. Because of the way in which the robot works there is much less chance of damage to the hair follicles and therefore less wastage.

The other important thing about the robotic procedure is that a robot never gets tired! It just keeps going. With the best will in the world, when you have a manual transplant the surgeon can get tired and there is room for error. With a robot there is no room for error.

Oh, one other thing we should mention. Dr Canales led the team which invented the ARTAS Robotic System of hair transplantation, so when you need a hair transplant in Burlingame , California, you could not possibly be in better hands than at Silicon Valley Hair Institute!
