Dr. Sanusi Umar, President

Dr. Sanusi Umar (Dr. U), a fellow of The American Academy of Dermatology and a diplomat of the American Board of Dermatology, is a pioneer in the world of FUE hair restoration. His research, publications, and patents have resulted in several seminal developments in the field of hair restoration. Some of which include the new technologies and concepts of FUE that result in more efficient and consistent extraction of quality grafts and the minimization of donor footprint in all scenarios including head body and beard donor areas of all people of the world. His work and patents have led to the development of the UGraft® Zeus system which together with its “Intelligent Punch™is the world’s first universal FUE harvester. Dr. U developed this tool in a bid to solve the last frontier problem of Afro-textured hair FUE which was the most vexing problem in the field. In the process of solving this problem, Dr. U solved all birthed the Zeus which is capable of all FUE scenarios using a single punch design. Other areas of pioneering work include keloids, scarring alopecias, acne keloidalis nuchae, and regenerative medicine and non-pharmaceutical treatment alternatives for hair loss. Dr. U's work on patients with especially challenging skin and hair types, as well as repair procedures performed on severely scarred, donor-depleted individuals, is backed up by years of experience practicing his craft. Dr. U is the owner of Dr. U Skin and Hair clinic in Manhattan Beach, California, and an associate faculty at Departments of medicine (Dermatology Div) of both the University of California (UCLA ), Los Angeles as well as Harbor-UCLA, Torrance California. He has orchestrated very well-received seminars similar to our upcoming course, sponsored by Dr.UGraft™ Zeus. He looks forward to sharing what he has learned with his peers and colleagues in the field.
