Dr. Bernstein On Helping 8 Year Old Girl With Hair Transplant After Brain Surgery

October 17th, 2011

Dr. Bernstein shares a story of how he helped give an 8 year old girl her life back by performing hair transplant surgery on the bald area of her scalp after a benign brain tumor was removed.

Below is a transcript of the video clip:

“I think that one of the recent patients that really comes to mind is that we had an 8 year old girl who had a benign brain tumor who had an operation. Although the surgery was successful, it left some geometric scars on the side of her head. She started the second grade and she was ok, but people started to tease her and she started to become self conscious. We were able to do a couple of hair transplants to make this whole bald area go away. And it totally changed her personality, her grades came up. I think also it got rid of her memory of the surgery. While she had the bald area, she always remembered having the tumor and afterwards, it was totally gone.”
