Expert Insights from Blackhawk Hair Restoration’s Specialists

Hair loss affects millions of people worldwide, impacting not just appearance but often confidence and self-image as well.

At Blackhawk Hair Restoration, founder Dr. Stephen J. Ronan, MD, FACS, and Hair Restoration Specialist Adriane McDonald, RN BSN, are revolutionizing the approach to hair restoration through a combination of cutting-edge technology and artistic precision.

A Personalized Approach to Hair Restoration

The journey to hair restoration begins with a complimentary and thorough consultation process.

“All of our consults can be either virtual or in-office,” explains McDonald. “Virtual usually gives general information, and then if we want to proceed, the patients usually come into the office. In that way, we can do a thorough analysis of the scalp with our dermoscopy.”

This detailed initial evaluation is crucial for success. Dr. Ronan emphasizes the importance of proper diagnosis:

“It’s really important to get the right diagnosis because if you were to do a transplant in the face of autoimmune disease, it wouldn’t really work. We want to make sure we do everything appropriately, which is why our consults are very thorough.”

Advanced Treatment Options

The clinic offers both medical and surgical solutions, often combining approaches for optimal results.

Medical treatments may include oral minoxidil, which Dr. Ronan notes was originally a blood pressure medication whose hair-growth properties were discovered by chance. The clinic also offers a specialized protocol combining PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) with other medications directly applied to the scalp.

For surgical solutions, Blackhawk employs multiple techniques:

The Art of Natural Results

What sets Blackhawk apart is their attention to creating natural-looking results. “We try to make the hairline very jagged, sort of moving back and forth and not a straight line,” Dr. Ronan explains. “When we do that, we can achieve a much more natural result.”

The approach differs between male and female patients.

For women, McDonald notes, “Female patients typically want high density, the natural look. That’s why we’re creating those irregularities in the hairline.”

The team considers not just current appearance but future hair loss patterns, ensuring results that will continue to look natural over time.

The Patient Experience

One recent patient, Scott, shares his experience: “I do a lot of public speaking, I’m with younger people. Instead of being the older, out-of-shape guy that is only looking worse every single day, the hair loss was contributing to that.”

In just nine days after his procedure, Scott was presenting to nearly a thousand people, with no one noticing he had undergone a transplant.

Recovery is surprisingly manageable for most patients. After the first week of specialized washing instructions, patients can typically return to their normal routine. “

You can wear a hat as of day two,” McDonald shares. “The only real downtime is your physical activity – no exercising, no heavy lifting for that week.”

Long-Term Results and Care

Full results typically appear around the one-year mark, though the timeline can vary.

“Some people might be three and a half or three months, and some people might be more five or six months,” Dr. Ronan explains. The clinic emphasizes that hair restoration is a journey, not just a procedure, and provides ongoing support throughout the process.

Results are permanent, and patients can engage in all normal activities once healed – from swimming to professional sports.

Blackhawk Hair Restoration even counts professional football players among their patients, who schedule procedures during the off-season and return to training camp without issues.

The Wrapup!

Modern hair restoration is a blend of medical science and artistic skill. Through their comprehensive approach, attention to natural-looking results, and commitment to patient care, Dr. Ronan and his team at Blackhawk Hair Restoration are helping patients regain not just their hair, but their confidence.

Whether through medical treatments, surgical procedures, or a combination of both, they provide personalized solutions that stand the test of time.
