There’s a lot of treatments out there and at RHRLI we offer the ARTAS® system, which we feel is the best solution on the market.

And sometimes hair loss is the result of a disease or medical condition. [Read more…] about Which Autoimmune Diseases Cause Hair Loss?

At RHRLI we offer a permanent solution for conditions like androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern hair loss, called the ARTAS® System. It’s a Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) which uses robotic technology to give you minimally invasive hair transplants. Some people seek other more invasive transplants, while others seek treatment to cover up thinning hair.
