We had our vision and knew our ideals from such research. How did we make it possible to achieve a whole new level or surgery in hair transplantation?
Innovation and Experimentation. We knew that in order to create a better way, a better look, a method had to be created to be used as a standard to change the status quo. We looked at the many instruments available for doing the kind of measurement, extraction, and surgical alteration of the areas described and we knew they would not suffice. So, we set about creating new ones.
Working in conjunction with a medical supply manufacturer we developed a relationship to create the necessary devices.

The Khan Densitometer

One major problem of such surgery was the determination of suitable donor hair areas on the scalp. To accurately evaluate the density of donor sites, we developed an optical device which allowed accurate counting of hairs in a four millimeter round or square area. The lenses had to be adjustable and the device had to be mountable against the head to conduct such a count with precision. In this way we can rule out inadequate sites quickly and avoid problem areas which might appear sparse after removing the necessary graft hairs.
Our Densitome allows us to do this efficiently and within a time frame suitable for same day surgery completion. The surgeon no longer needs to strain or estimate for such sites, eliminating the first problem encountered with developing our new method.

The Khan Variable Depth Blade Holder

Two of the biggest pitfalls of any surgery are the pain caused and blood flow disruption to the body. We wanted to insure that a new method would not create these problems. We knew the physical structure of the skin on the skull - the scalp - and knew the limits our surgical team would have to avoid encountering nerves and blood vessels. The problem was there were no tools to do this consistently. Patients relied solely on the surgeon's skill and sense of touch.

We developed the Khan Variable Depth Blade Holder and the process of controlling the removal of grafts became effortless. The ultra fine precision of this instrument does not allow the surgeon to penetrate deeper than necessary when removing grafts. These features allow greater accuracy in the removal of many hairs simultaneously. The interchangeable shims can create desired width of donor strips.

Graft Preparation System

The most time consuming and difficult part of hair transplantation was preparing the single hair grafts and two- and three-hair grafts. We invented the powered microscopic projection system, which enables us to prepare individual follicular units by looking at the projected image. This system eliminates any damage to even the baby hair follicles. In conjunction with this technical marvel, we have the services of hair transplant surgery nurses with decades of combined experience in this highly specialized area.

Surgical Time Compression

One difficult aspect of hair transplantation had been the time necessary to remove and implant these hundreds of tiny hair grafts. That is probably why prior to the R.H.C.C.(Renew Hair & Cosmetic Center) advanced method of transplantation, planting individual hairs had been avoided by other surgeons. Thanks to all of our technical innovations the average patient with a large area to be created can expect the entire surgery to be completed in only a few hours. Our patients come to us healthy and leave just as healthy. Those who have experienced the trauma of older methods can truly appreciate our new technique.
