Dr. Dominic A. Brandy shared methods to fix aesthetic problems from old hair restoration techniques, using methods like follicular unit grafting and scalp removal, which helped patients look more natural after surgery. He also suggested using oral finasteride and topical minoxidil to control hair loss in most men with baldness, especially those who had flap surgery.

The document concludes that individualized treatments for hair issues are effective, certain hair changes can indicate neurocutaneous diseases, specific lotions improve skin health, laser hair removal works but needs more study on long-term effects, men's cosmetics are diverse, peeling is effective but can have side effects, and facial pigmentation is often due to overactive skin cells.
