Hair Restoration Surgeon

Dr Omar Haddad (MBBS, ABHRS) is a hair-restoration surgeon whose work covers the techniques this site explains, follicular unit excision (FUE), direct hair implantation (DHI), and strip harvesting (FUT), along with the medical treatments that sit alongside surgery.

He signs off the clinical content on Felix Haircare: that candidacy and the Norwood scale, graft and density figures, the growth timeline, the risks, and the role of medicines such as finasteride and minoxidil are all described as current hair-restoration practice sees them, in line with the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery and dermatology guidance.

His review keeps the facts straight. It does not assess your own scalp. Whether a transplant suits you, how much donor hair you have, and what a realistic result looks like for your pattern of loss are things only an in-person consultation with a qualified surgeon can decide.
