The Kolasinki Clinic hosted workshops on hair restoration surgeries on September 19-20, 2007. The meeting, meant for all doctors willing to deepen the basics of hair restoration surgery, was the first of this type organized in this part of Europe. Prominent specialists such as Dr Bessam Farjo – President of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, Dr Ronald Shapiro – worldwide famous surgeon, author of the book Hair Transplantation , Dr David Perez-Meza – organizer of the largest in the world workshops on hair surgery in Orlando, Dr Vincenzo Gambino – President of the Italian Society of Hair Restoration Surgery, Dr Małgorzata Kolenda – President of the Polish Society of Hair Restoration Surgery and Dr Jerzy Kolasiński.
On Wednesday, Septmeber 19, the classes started with a series of lectures covering all basic issues encompassing the reasons of baldness, conservative treatment, surgery qualification, surgical technique and the treatment of complications. The lecturers did their best to impart their knowledge to the participants. The following days the participants could observe life demonstrations of particular surgeries. The cases were assiduously chosen so that the doctors could learn surgery techniques of treating androgenic baldness both in men and women. There was also enough time to observe correction surgeries of scars. FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) – recently the most popular technique – was presented as well.
The workshops became a great opportunity for the participants to learn the novelties in hair restoration surgeries as well as to meet personally world leaders in this discipline.
