Program Description
The live online webinar will occur on the date and time as noted. The live program will be recorded and available for viewing on demand until January 10, 2024. This 2-hour CME activity is a live webinar which will be recorded with the intention to be re-watched or viewed as on-demand education. This webinar is being conducted to expand awareness of the multiple available FUE harvesting devices available, and to compare these with manual harvest options. Awareness of the strengths and weaknesses of each device will allow the surgeon to properly select a device that will best benefit each patient.
The online live component will include presentations, panel discussion, and audience participation via verbal questions and discussion, typing chat Q&A and polling.
Professional Practice Gap
Most people, including surgeons, are “creatures of habit.” Since the cost of technology can be significant, most surgeons purchase and employ one or at most two FUE harvesting devices. The best device might be one of the alternatives, and lack of awareness of can potentially lead to suboptimal patient outcomes.
Educational Need
There are insufficient opportunities for side-by-side comparison of multiple FUE harvesting devices. This webinar will address that need by allowing practitioners to discuss these devices and how each might be used to address challenging cases.
Learning Objectives
As a result of participating in this webinar, the attendees should be able to:
- Identify the major FUE harvesting devices
- Discuss of the relative strengths and weaknesses of each device
- Select a device that best meets the needs of the surgeon’s patient population
Target Audience and Prerequisites
This webinar is taught at the physician level. It is open to all levels and geared toward advanced hair restoration surgeons.

Disclosure Information
In accordance with the ACCME Accreditation Criteria, the ISHRS must ensure that anyone in a position to control the content of the educational activity (planners/ speakers/authors/moderators) has disclosed all financial relationships with any commercial interest (termed by the ACCME as “ineligible companies”, defined below) held in the last 24 months (see below for definitions). Please note that first authors were required to collect and submit disclosure information on behalf all other authors/contributors, if applicable.
- Ineligible Company: The ACCME defines an “ineligible company” as any entity producing, marketing, re-selling, or distributing health care goods or services used on or consumed by patients. Providers of clinical services directly to patients are NOT included in this definition.
- Financial Relationships: Relationships in which the individual benefits by receiving a salary, royalty, intellectual property rights, consulting fee, honoraria, ownership interest (e.g., stocks, stock options or other ownership interest, excluding diversified mutual funds), or other financial benefit. Financial benefits are usually associated with roles such as employment, management position, independent contractor (including contracted research), consulting, speaking and teaching, membership on advisory committees or review panels, board membership, and other activities from which remuneration is received, or expected. ACCME considers relationships of the person involved in the CME activity to include financial relationships of a spouse or partner.
- Conflict of Interest: Circumstances create a conflict of interest when an individual has an opportunity to affect CME content about products or services of an ineligible company with which he/she has a financial relationship.
The ACCME also requires that ISHRS manage any reported conflict and eliminate the potential for bias during the educational activity. Any conflicts noted below have been managed to our satisfaction. The disclosure information is intended to identify any commercial relationships and allow learners to form their own judgments.
