Biography

Dr. Sean Behnam is a board certified hair restoration surgeon and an active member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery. Dr. Sean specializes in hair loss and exclusively practices hair restoration. His passion, focus, and interests are all about hair loss and hair transplants. His office is located in Santa Monica, California. He was named a Top 25 Doctor by Newsweek magazine and is a frequent guest on Fox, Good Day LA, and ABC. He has published numerous articles and is active in research within the field of hair restoration to better advance the process and outcome. He attended the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) for his undergraduate studies, majoring in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. He then attended Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) for medical school. He did his residency at the prestigious University of California San Francisco (UCSF-Fresno). He then spent a year learning and practicing hair restoration under the one of the most world renowned hair transplant experts in Massachusetts. Dr. Sean practices both the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant, or ‘strip’) methods. He designs and manufactures many of the tools and instruments he uses for the FUE procedure. His practice is an official site for training residents in the latest advances in hair restoration. He frequently trains other doctors from around the world in the most advanced hair restoration techniques. Dr. Sean uses the most advanced technology in hair restoration, and a significant portion of the patients that come to his practice for consultations are referral based. Dr. Sean’s philosophy is that hair restoration is art. Thus, he performs hair transplants on only one patient at a time, and dedicates all his attention to that patient. Like an artist, he spends hours designing the hairline to make sure it looks very natural. He has a fully dedicated staff of technicians that exclusively help with hair restoration procedures.

Research Interests

My current interest is in regenerative medicine in hair restoration. I am currently working on evaluating the efficacy of amnionic stem cells (Amniofix ) in hair regeneration in the donor area following removal of the graft via the FUE (follicular Unit Extraction) method.
