Dr. Marie Schambach

PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Dr. Marie Andrée Schambach is one of the leading specialists in Central America who treats hair and scalp problems exclusively, focused on hair replacement and restoration. Healthy hair is a significant element of your appearance and self-esteem. Dr. Schambach listens carefully to your concerns, and initiates precise scientific analyses, to propose solutions that will restore your confidence in looking your best.

Dr. Schambach has been at the forefront of developing technologically advanced, safe, and innovative solutions to the problem of male and female pattern baldness and scalp disorders. She is a pioneer in the F.U.E (Follicular Unit Extraction) method of body hair transplantation, and she is dedicated to using the highest quality products and treatment methods that boost hair regrowth and promote scalp health. This enhanced technique results in significantly better outcomes for her patients.

The most common cause of hair loss, alopecia or pattern baldness in men and women is genetics. A small group of patients struggle with hair problems due to other causes, such as chemotherapy, hormonal imbalance, trauma, scarring, burns, injury, or other conditions that deplete the volume and condition of their hair. In addition, there are hundreds of vitamins and minerals involved in the production of keratin, and the lack or imbalance of these nutrients can also cause a reduction in hair growth. Dr. Schambach will take all these factors into account to develop an individualized therapeutic approach that fits your specific situation.

There are several effective treatment methods to restore your hair’s youthful appearance:

• Intradermotherapy (IDT) is the application of solutions, minerals, amino acids, or plasma-rich platelets (PRP) underneath the skin, to increase blood circulation and stimulate the follicles.
• Nanofibers are small fragments of keratin which use electrical charges to bond with each hair to increase the volume of the hair. Nanofibers are safe, with no harsh chemicals, and protect skin from sun damage. A global medical supplier in Miami delivers the highest quality nanofibers to the Schambach Clinic in Guatemala City.
• Trichopigmentation or Micropigmentation treats only the areas with hair loss, helping to correct scarring and baldness. It is non-invasive and painless and can be used as a complimentary procedure to transplants or capillary grafts.
• Biocompatible Scalp Prosthesis is an exact 3-D replica of the patient’s own head and scalp. It is made with medical grade components and virgin hair. The system allows the skin to breathe naturally, and stay in place during shampooing, swimming, sauna, and even extreme sports.
• Hormonal Modulation, Growth Factors, Laser Treatments, Vitamins and Diet can all be uniquely structured to the patient’s lifestyle, to assure the best possible hair growth results.

When non-surgical methods are not giving optimum results, then Dr. Schambach might recommend a surgery to give the long-term growth solutions that the patient is expecting. Under the guidance of Dr. Schambach, the patient can look forward to having a full head of hair that looks totally natural and seamless.

When surgery is a better choice for you, consider these procedures:

• Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a technique of hair restoration where the follicular units are extracted from the back of the head or any body part and are relocated in the new area. The extracted follicular unit can consist of one to four hairs. It is achieved without using a scalpel or stitches, allowing for faster healing and less discomfort.
• Mega-session FUE is a larger transplant, of up to 5000 grafts of abundant hair units. The procedure could be done all in one day or carried out over three separate sessions.
• Restorative Surgery of the Eyebrows and Eyelashes takes healthy hair follicles from different locations on the body and surgically places them at the same growth angle as the natural hair. It is usually performed under local anesthesia, for the patient’s comfort and safety.
• Restorative Surgery of the Beard is the same concept of follicle relocation but much more refined in its technique and application. During beard restoration surgery, individual hairs of similar denseness and rigidity are extracted and implanted at a precise orientation with a tiny incision, to mimic natural growth.
