This is Dr. Ferreira. Welcome. I would like to welcome you to the fascinating world of hair transplantation. I consider each patient’s individual needs and I strive to achieve excellence in my work which is my passion.

Let me tell you a little about myself. I graduated with honors from the University of Toronto pharmacology program in 1987. I was awarded the Andrew D Baines graduation award for the highest graduating marks in life sciences. I then decided to pursue a career in medicine. I attended the faculty of medicine at the University of Toronto for the next four years. At that time I decided to pursue a career in academic emergency medicine. During my residency training I was elected chief resident twice and voted Intern of the Year”.

After finishing my training in primary care medicine, I decided to dedicate myself to working in the emergency rooms affiliated with the University of Toronto. During my time in the emergency room I was responsible for teaching interns and residents and I helped coordinate many teaching programs for students. After years of emergency work, I was hoping to find an area of medicine where I could express my artistic creativity and work with my hands in a more technical skill. Many of my family members have male pattern baldness and I began to lose my hair noticeably in my twenties. Several years ago I decided to have my own hair transplant and I was very happy with the results. Furthermore, the delicate nature of the surgery, the creativity, and the technical skills required were very appealing.

After several years of extensive research, observation and training I decided to accept an offer to become the medical director of Sure Hair International in 2005. Sure Hair international had been performing follicular unit hair transplants for almost fifteen years. I believe I have added expertise, leadership and direction to the medical and surgical division of Sure Hair International. Since taking over the position, I have strived to continually improve the standards of performance. I have introduced various new techniques to meet a new higher standard of quality and workmanship. These include: the stick and place technique for planting grafts which is in my opinion a better method for planting follicular unit grafts; a unique method of creating a trichophytic closure to camouflage donor incisions with hairs that grow through the incision; 25% better density; the “ gentle-touch” technique for administering anesthesia that is virtually painless; a seamless and undetectable method for creating perfectly natural hairlines. Furthermore, I personally supervise all transplants so that each transplant is a custom designed work that serves the patient both in the short term and long term. The end result is an ultra-refined hair transplant that is tailored to the specific needs of my patient.

I discuss the surgery in great detail with all patients and I ensure that each patient is fully informed and that he or she has a clear understanding of what to expect. I try to make sure that each patient feels as if they have had an honest and clear discussion about the surgery and what to expect before, during and after the surgery. Due to the high volume of work that I perform, I employ technical associates who meet with out of town patients when I cannot meet them personally. I review all files personally and I ensure that each Sure Hair associate represents myself and the company well. I have developed a close follow up program after the surgery that ensures each patient has adequate support and access after the surgery. It is my belief that the transplant begins with our first consult and only ends when the results are fully grown in and the patient no longer feels that they need our support. My staff and I treat each patient with respect and we endeavor to make all patients comfortable both physically and emotionally.

My career is indeed a passion for me as are my two wonderful boys who are still toddlers. I am married to a wonderful woman and I try to emulate the kind of life that I respect and admire. I try to be physically active and fit as well as a contributing member of society and the best father and husband that I can be.

I invite you to meet with me personally and discuss all of your options for thinning hair. Please book a consult and take the first step to improving your hair and your overall appearance. I look forward to meeting with you.

Sincerely
Dr. Nelson Ferreira
