Hair Loss Treatment in Tel Aviv with Dr. Dana Buchbut, M.D.

About Dr. Dana Buchbut

Dr. Dana Buchbut (in Hebrew: ד"ר דנה בוכבוט) is a physician who has focused on hair medicine since 2010, alongside aesthetic medicine. She earned her medical degree (M.D.) at the Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, and an MBA from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), with a focus on health systems management.

Her clinical background includes an internship at Ichilov Hospital (Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center), work as a physician in the dermatology department of Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem and at the Ministry of Health skin and venereal disease clinic at Levinsky in Tel Aviv, and clinical experience at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School.

• Member of the Israel Medical Association (IMA)
• Member of the International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons (IAHRS)
• 16 years of experience in hair medicine

Dr. Buchbut is not a board-certified dermatologist. Her practice focuses on hair loss, hair transplantation, aesthetic medicine and selected skin treatments, and she refers patients to a dermatologist or another physician when a problem is outside that scope. More about her (in Hebrew): Who is Dr. Dana Buchbut.

Your first visit: hair loss diagnosis

Treatment starts with a diagnosis. At the first visit Dr. Buchbut takes a medical history, asks about medications, family history and previous treatments, and examines the scalp with computerized trichoscopy, a magnified digital examination of the hair and scalp. Blood tests may be recommended when the history suggests a cause that needs to be checked.

Common reasons patients come to the clinic include:

• Male and female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia)
• Alopecia areata (patchy hair loss)
• Diffuse shedding, including shedding after illness, stress or medications
• Seborrheic dermatitis and other scalp conditions
• Planning a hair transplant, or follow-up after a transplant done elsewhere

After the examination you receive a personal treatment plan and a price quote. Most plans combine more than one treatment. Results differ from person to person, and realistic expectations are part of the conversation.

Hair loss treatments at the clinic

The clinic offers regenerative scalp treatments, medication, and hair transplantation. All treatments are performed by Dr. Buchbut under local anesthesia where needed. Detailed pages are available in Hebrew:

• PRP for hair: platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood and injected into the scalp.
• iPRF: a plasma preparation from your own blood that forms a fibrin matrix and releases growth factors gradually.
• CGF: concentrated growth factors, another preparation from your own blood.
• Regenera Activa: autologous micrografts. Tiny samples of your own scalp tissue are processed and injected into thinning areas in the same session.
• MCT: PRP activated by light and temperature, with exosomes from your own blood.
• Medication and a home plan: for example minoxidil, finasteride or dutasteride, when suitable after assessment.
• Hair transplant, FUE and DHI: consultation and surgery performed by Dr. Buchbut. Whether you are a candidate, and how much coverage is realistic, depends on your donor area and is assessed at the consultation.

Patients with alopecia areata receive a separate plan, because the condition and its treatment differ from pattern hair loss.

Aesthetic medicine

Dr. Buchbut also performs aesthetic injections and skin treatments. These include botulinum toxin injections for wrinkles and for excessive sweating, hyaluronic acid fillers (for example lips, cheeks, under-eye area and jawline), collagen stimulators such as Radiesse and Sculptra, skin boosters and polynucleotides, PRP and iPRF for the face, threads, TCA chemical peels, and treatments for acne scars. Overview in Hebrew: aesthetic treatments.

Penile girth enhancement for men

The clinic offers non-surgical penile girth enhancement with hyaluronic acid filler. The filler is injected under the skin of the shaft under local anesthesia. It is not permanent, and hyaluronic acid can be dissolved with an enzyme (hyaluronidase) if needed. Suitability, possible side effects and aftercare are discussed in a private consultation. The clinic is located in a medical building with many different clinics, so arriving there does not reveal which treatment you came for. Details in Hebrew: penile girth enhancement.

Skin lesion removal

Benign skin lesions such as skin tags, seborrheic keratoses, some moles and warts can be removed at the clinic after examination. When indicated, the removed tissue is sent for pathology. Dr. Buchbut does not perform mole mapping or evaluate suspicious moles: these are referred to a dermatologist. Details in Hebrew: skin lesion removal.
