First Painless Hair Transplant Performed
September 2011
A recently FDA-approved device originally created to eliminate pain
associated with the use of needles and syringes for common dermal
fillers and neurotoxin injections such as Botox®, Dysport®, Juvederm,®
and Restylane® has now been adopted for first-time use by Dr. Alan
J. Bauman, the nation’s leading hair transplant surgeon, for use in
his hair transplant procedures.
“The Ouchless Needle, made by BellaNovus, is the final ingredient in
modern hair transplantation surgery that will serve to completely
eliminate patient concerns about the issue of pain associated with
the hair transplantation process,” says Dr. Alan J. Bauman.
The Ouchless™ Needle, made by BellaNovus Development Company LLC, is
a disposable syringe-attachable dispenser that delivers a precise
stream of a numbing vapocoolant spray to the skin just ahead of the
tip of the needle before the skin is pierced. With its innovative
delivery system, this new medical technological device works to
instantly reduce the pain associated with having injections –
without the burden of freezing ice or time-consuming messy creams –
and, according to clinical trials, minimizes post-injection
numbness, swelling and bruising thereby providing patients a far
superior treatment experience. It also speeds up the treatment
process both for doctors, and patients on a busy schedule. Watch Dr.
Bauman discuss the benefits of The Ouchless™ Needle.
Since establishing the Bauman Medical Group in 1997, Dr. Bauman has
performed thousands of hair transplant procedures for patients
around the world. In his more than 15-years of practice, Dr. Bauman
has built an international reputation not only for his masterfully
artistic hair transplant procedures, but equally as well for his
unwavering commitment in the use of the most state-of-the-art
technologies he has adapted and adopted in the performance of his
procedures.
As early as 1999, in an effort to address the issue of pain associated with hair transplant procedures, Dr. Bauman began using the computerized injection device, the CompuMed/The Wand to deliver local anesthesia into the skin.
In 2002, Dr. Bauman was one of the nation’s first hair transplant surgeons to begin to use the less-invasive FUE technique and more recently in 2008 became the first diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery to routinely utilize the mechanical no-scalpel, no-stitch NeoGraft device to more accurately and efficiently perform the procedure which eliminates the traditional strip-harvest and its tell-tale linear scarring.
Dr. Bauman has implemented leading edge techniques
such as these, as well as other cosmetic procedures, including
Eyelash Transplantation and the use of Low Level Laser Therapy,
placing him at the forefront of the medical industry and earning him
national and international media recognition and clientele.
