Why Wilson Residents Deserve Better Hair Restoration Options
Wilson is home to tens of thousands of people navigating the same experience: noticing the hairline changing, researching options, and running into a wall. The local market offers non-surgical treatments and hair systems. What it does not offer is a surgical specialist, a physician performing FUE and FUT as their exclusive practice. That gap is the reason Wilson residents end up driving two hours west to get the procedure done right.
Here is what you will find locally:
- Non-surgical treatments only, which offers PRP therapy and laser hair treatments but does not perform surgical hair transplant procedures
- Non-surgical hair systems and topical treatments, which addresses hair loss without surgery
- Online directories listing hair restoration "near Wilson" that redirect to practices in Raleigh, Apex, or other cities with no presence in Wilson County
For patients who want permanent surgical results from a team that does nothing else, the right step is making the drive to the right clinic. From Wilson, that clinic is Signature Hair Restoration in High Point.
The route: take US-264 West to I-40 West. The drive is approximately 130 miles and takes about 2 hours.

The Signature Difference
Two specialists. One coordinated procedure.
Most clinics rely on a single surgeon. Here, Greg Koher and Dr. Sessoms operate side by side, extracting grafts at the same time to shorten your day in the chair and protect every follicle.
- Dual-specialist FUE technique found nowhere else in the U.S.
- 30+ years of combined, coordinated experience
- Less time out of the body means healthier grafts

The Dual-Specialist FUE Technique
Greg Koher and Dr. Cory Sessoms extract grafts simultaneously. Koher works one side of the donor area. Sessoms works the other. Both are extracting at the same time.
Standard FUE relies on one surgeon extracting thousands of grafts in sequence. This creates two problems: time and fatigue. The longer grafts sit outside the body, the lower their survival rate. And a surgeon covering an entire donor area alone will face some precision decline toward the end of a large session.
Simultaneous extraction by two specialists solves both:
Procedure time cut by up to 40%
Grafts return to implantation faster, preserving their survival rate
Each surgeon covers half the donor area, so precision holds from the first graft to the last
Larger sessions are possible without a quality trade-off
No other practice in the United States uses this technique. The same team, physicians, technicians, and support staff, works every case. That consistency produces the same standard of outcome every time.
What Happens on Procedure Day
For Wilson patients planning around a manufacturing schedule or shift rotation, knowing what the day looks like matters.
| Stage | What Happens | Approximate Time |
|---|---|---|
| Arrival and Prep | Medical review, donor area shaved (FUE only), local anesthesia applied | 1 to 1.5 hours |
| Extraction | Koher and Sessoms extract grafts simultaneously from the donor area | 2 to 4 hours depending on graft count |
| Graft Preparation | Surgical technicians sort and prepare follicles for placement | Concurrent with extraction |
| Implantation | Grafts are placed at precise angles and depths in the recipient area | 2 to 4 hours |
| Post-Procedure Wrap | Donor area dressed, aftercare instructions reviewed, questions answered | 30 to 45 minutes |

Hair Loss Patterns We Treat
Signature treats all common patterns of hair loss in both men and women, from early recession to advanced baldness.
| Pattern | Description | Typical Graft Range |
|---|---|---|
| Frontal Hairline Recession | Hairline recedes at temples and forehead | 1,500 to 2,500 |
| Crown Thinning | Bald or thinning area develops at top of scalp | 1,000 to 2,000 |
| Diffuse Thinning | Overall density loss across the scalp | Varies by extent |
| Advanced Pattern Baldness | Extensive loss requiring large-session coverage | 3,000 to 4,000+ |
| Female Pattern Hair Loss | Frontal thinning or widening part line | 1,000 to 2,500 |
Graft counts are estimates. Your consultation provides an exact number based on your specific pattern and goals.
Is Surgery or PRP Right for You?
Since PRP is the primary hair loss option available locally in Wilson, it helps to understand where each treatment fits.
| PRP Therapy | Hair Transplant Surgery | |
|---|---|---|
| What It Does | Stimulates existing follicles, slows ongoing hair loss | Permanently relocates healthy donor follicles to thinning or bald areas |
| Who It Works For | Patients with early-stage thinning who still have active follicles | Patients with stable hair loss and sufficient donor supply |
| Results | Gradual improvement in density, requires ongoing sessions | Permanent growth from transplanted follicles |
| Downtime | None | 7 to 14 days depending on technique |
| Maintenance | Ongoing sessions required to sustain results | None after recovery |
| Can It Restore Lost Hair? | No | Yes |
Surgery is likely the right fit if:
- Your hair loss has been stable for at least one year
- You have visible bald or significantly thinned areas
- You want a permanent result without ongoing treatment
- You have adequate donor hair on the back and sides of your scalp
PRP may be the better starting point if:
- You are in the early stages of thinning with mostly active follicles
- You are not yet ready for surgery
- You want to slow progression while evaluating your long-term options
Not sure which applies to you? That is what the consultation is for.
