Your journey starts with a consultation—not at PSCHR, but with one of the trusted surgeons in our referral network trained in the Foundation method. During this meeting, you’ll discuss your goals, evaluate the donor area, and design a hairline that complements your features.
On the day of the procedure, you’ll receive local anesthesia and optional twilight sedation to ensure your comfort throughout. The procedure involves harvesting individual follicular units—typically one to four hairs—from the back or sides of your scalp using a precise punch tool less than 1 millimeter in size. The WAW FUE system helps optimize efficiency, preserve follicle viability, and reduce trauma to the surrounding scalp.
Once harvested, your follicles are implanted into the thinning or balding areas, following the natural angles and density of your existing hair. This is where the artistry of Foundation-trained surgeons shines—your surgeon places each graft to ensure your final results look seamless. The full session usually takes 6 to 10 hours, and you’ll leave with a post-care plan tailored to your healing process and long-term hair health.
