PATIENT TESTIMONIAL |
|
From Barry P.
“It is an easy, painless procedure that really works. If having fuller hair is important, have this surgery and use Dr. Bauman.
Before selecting Dr. Bauman’s office, I went to another doctor first and actually scheduled a date and left a deposit. I decided to get a second opinion and came to his office. What a difference! It’s like comparing a Motel 6 to the Ritz Carlton Hotel. The entire experience was very different."

 Are you at risk for baldness? NEW: Genetic Test For Hair Loss Now Available at Bauman Medical Group NOW for both MEN & WOMEN!
Boca Raton, FL--First in Florida, Dr. Alan Bauman and Bauman Medical Group is proud to offer the first medical ‘lab test’ for baldness. A breakthrough in the medical evaluation and treatment of hereditary hair loss, it answers the question, "What is your risk for developing “Pattern Baldness?” The new, quick, non-invasive, DNA test is a reliable way to determine if you are ‘high-risk’ or ‘low-risk’ for the hereditary form of hair loss. As simple and painless as using a toothbrush, your genetic risk can be determined by the lab at HairDX. Soon to be seen on NBC TODAY, Dr. Alan Bauman discusses with Janice Lieberman who should take the test and what information the test results reveal.
NOTE: HairDX genetic test for 'androgenetic alopecia' (hereditary Pattern Baldness) is a medical test. The test should be performed under medical supervison in order to avoid contamination and ensure accurate results. Results should be discussed with a qualified Hair Restoration Physician, so that the various treatment options may be discussed. For more information on HairDX, visit their website or contact Dr. Bauman at 561-394-0024 or email doctorb@baumanmedical.com.

The Wall Street Journal reported that "Eyelash Growth Medications" are causing a "flutter." For years, it has been reported in the scientific literature that the use of prostaglandin analogues for glaucoma often resulted in a quirky side-effect: enhanced eyelash growth. More recently, low concentrations of these ingredients have been used in the "eyelash conditioners" seen in physician's offices, salons and spas and physicians have prescribed these treatment 'off-label' to their cosmetic patients.
Dr. Bauman currently offers MD Lash Factor, a clinically-proven eyelash growth medication to his patients who desire longer, thicker and more dense lashes. Oftentimes, lashes enhanced with these treatments will need to be trimmed (especially if they are hitting one's sunglasses or reading glasses) and occasionally curled, tinted or permed. Dr. Bauman also has prescribed bimatoprost in an off-label use for his patients for topical use on the eyelid. Side effects of these treatments remain few and far between, but can include eye irritation, darkening of the skin of the lid or iris. Dr. Bauman recommends visiting with a board-certified hair restoration physician before starting any hair growth treatment regimen and cautions against the use of these treatment for women who are pregnant, nursing or are being treated for glaucoma. For more information on Eyelash Conditioners, call 1+561-394-0024 or email doctorb@baumanmedical.com.

Often, I am asked by patients and physicians the differences between treatments, medications, procedures, medical and cosmetic devices. As part of a recent lecture on Low Level Laser Therapy given at the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery's Annual Live Surgery Workshop in Orlando, Florida, I presented a small sampling of the features that several of the Low Level Laser Device companies distribute. The data was collected from each of the companies' various literature on their devices, including their FDA clearance status. Each patient and physician should decide for themselves which features, functions, classifications and clearances are important. Here is one of the charts presented.

COSMETIC SECRETS
No longer a closely-guarded secret among the ranks of the rich and famous, cosmetic surgery is in vogue. As more and more celebrities and reality TV shows have popularized numerous cosmetic surgerical procedures, demand has grown for the “mid-life makeover.” (See the related article in Men's Health)
At Bauman Medical Group, hairline “touch-ups” to camouflage scars make-up a significant percentage of the hair transplantation procedures we perform. Dr. Bauman is highly regarded by leading cosmetic surgeons acquainted with his work. Following a brow or face lift, doctors (and salon stylists) may refer their patients and clients to Dr. Bauman because he can recreate a remarkably natural hairline to camouflage the scar. Hair restoration in the hairline requires exceptional surgical skill and artistry ... |

ISHRS Operation Restore: Restoring Self-Image, Self-Esteem and Hair
Geneva, IL--Free hair transplant and hair restoration treatments/procedures are now available for patients suffering from hair loss due to trauma, accidents and certain medical conditions. Members of the ISHRS (International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery) understand that hair loss can have far reaching effects on a person's sense of self image and self esteem. When the loss of hair occurs because of disease or trauma, the factors associated with such a hair loss process may produce particularly profound effect.
Recognizing that many of these people in the process of physical and emotional recovery may lack the resources for corrective hair restoration surgery, the ISHRS Pro Bono Foundation is proud to announce OPERATION RESTORE.

This program matches prospective hair loss patients with volunteer ISHRS physicians to obtain hair restoration services to help restore the physical and emotional wellness of the individual. The foundation will provide financial, travel, lodging, and medical assistance to eligible patients. The ISHRS Pro Bono Program was also featured in Association Forum Magazine.
Volunteer physicians, like Dr. Bauman, will waive or otherwise be responsible for the costs of all medical fees, supplies, etc. associated with all aspects of the procedure, including routine pre-operative and post-operative care. Dr. Bauman has offered pro bono hair transplantation and other hair restoration treatments during his years of surgical training and as Medical Director of Bauman Medical Group on a consistent basis for years.
Hair loss or scars on the scalp, eyebrows, sideburns or beards/moustaches due to accidents or other trauma may be considered for pro-bono procedures.
