 Dr. Jones is among the first physicians in North America to add micro follicular unit extraction (FUE) - scalpel-free hair transplants to his practice. He has been practicing from his hair transplant center in Oakville (near Toronto) Ontario for many years, but since he started using the micro follicular unit extraction technique he has become a leader in the field.

Body hair loss
I am a woman and just turned 60. The last few years I have found that I have less and less hair to shave on my legs and now notice that I have no body hair on my arms. I always hear jokes about growing UNWANTED hair when you age - ears, nose, etc., but I seem to be losing mine. Is this normal or a matter of concern? Is the hair on my head next? I had a hysterectomy at 51 and took Premarin for 5 or 6 years. I have been taking Synthroid for about a year and a half - now on 75 mg.
Hello,
Nothing to be concerned about, some females lose some body hair as they age,
