At the Quatela Center for Hair Restoration in Rochester, each procedure is performed by some of the best, most experienced, highly qualified hair replacement doctors, not only in Syracuse and Buffalo, New York, but in the entire country. Dr. Vito Quatela, in addition to being a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, is a diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery with more than 25 years of experience performing hair restoration procedures. Dr. Heather Lee and Dr. Alex Montague are facial plastic surgeons and otolaryngologists who learned advanced hair transplant techniques directly from Dr. Quatela. Together, they work with a hand-picked medical team whose expertise in hair restoration is unsurpassed in the state.
When you request a consultation at the Quatela Center, Dr. Quatela, Dr. Lee, or Dr. Montague meets with you at the Lindsay House, a stately Victorian-era mansion whose meticulous renovation was overseen by Dr. Quatela. You can also schedule an appointment by calling our office at (585) 244-0323.
Quality Results
The unnatural hair plugs from the 1970s and 1980s are a procedure of the past in the field of hair transplant surgery. But even though hair restoration techniques are more advanced than ever, achieving excellent, natural-looking results still requires an experienced surgeon who understands the artistic nature of the procedure. Getting the results you desire requires more than simply extracting hair follicles from one area of the scalp and transferring them to another area. It calls for an understanding of the way hair grows, in order to best position the follicles. Dr. Quatela, Dr. Lee, and Dr. Montague have that understanding, and they use it to ensure that each patient’s results will blend with the existing hair and look natural.
Choosing the Quatela Center
You have options, of course, when it comes to selecting a hair restoration specialist. We believe that, because of their experience and the quality of results Dr. Quatela, Dr. Lee, and Dr. Montague achieve, it is worth traveling to our hair restoration center even if you’re traveling from Buffalo, Syracuse, elsewhere in New York, or even other parts of the country. Hair restoration surgery represents an investment in a new you, and the choice of surgeon shouldn’t be based solely on his or her proximity.
