Dr Arthur Movsisyan, Ms Shabnam Esmael and Dr Marie Christine Piat

New Hair Graft, a leading clinic specializing in hair restoration and hair transplant in Mauritius, based at C-Care Grand Baie, recently hosted a major event dedicated to women’s hair health awareness and treatment.

A Conference Dedicated to Women’s Hair Loss Awareness

As part of International Women’s Day, this conference took place on February 25 at Domaine de Grand Baie, bringing together members of the Association of Mauritian Women Entrepreneurs (AMFCE).

Affiliated with the global FCEM network, the organization represents over 100,000 businesswomen worldwide, united by a shared commitment to professional growth, leadership, and mentorship.

A Growing Concern: Hair Loss in Women

This initiative, led by Dr Arthur Movsisyan, a specialist in hair restoration and the only ISHRS member in Mauritius, is based on a clear medical observation:

👉 While hair transplant communication often targets men, an increasing number of women are affected by hair loss.

Globally:

• Around 33% of women experience hair loss at some point in their lives

  
  

In Mauritius, this trend is rising due to:

• Genetic predisposition

• Environmental factors

• High stress levels

  
  

Key statistics:

• Androgenetic alopecia accounts for 80% of long-term hair loss in women

• Affects 20% of women from age 40

• Reaches 25% by their 60s

• Traction alopecia impacts 31% of women over 18 in tropical regions

  
  

A Holistic and Preventive Medical Approach

“Our mission at New Hair Graft goes beyond aesthetic procedures. It is about education, prevention, and long-term hair health,” explains Dr Movsisyan.

He emphasizes:

• The importance of early diagnosis

• Understanding individual metabolism

• Seeking medical advice at the first signs of hair loss

  
  

👉 Today, effective and long-lasting solutions exist—far beyond superficial treatments.

FUE Hair Transplant & Non-Surgical Treatments

During the conference, participants were introduced to modern solutions for female hair loss, including:

FUE Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction)

• Minimally invasive technique

• Individual follicle extraction

• Natural-looking results

  
  

PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

• Regenerative treatment using the patient’s own blood

• Stimulates hair follicles

• Ideal for early-stage hair thinning

  
  

👉 A personalized consultation remains essential before considering any treatment.

Raising Awareness About Unsafe Practices

The event also addressed the growing risks of unregulated hair transplant procedures.

New Hair Graft advocates for:

• Safe, ethical, and medically supervised treatments

• Educating patients about the dangers of the black market in hair transplantation

  
  

Empowering Women Through Confidence and Health

Mrs Shabnam Esmael, President of AMFCE (2024–2026), praised the initiative:

“As women entrepreneurs, we often carry heavy responsibilities and tend to put ourselves last. This generates stress that can impact both our health and self-image. To give our best to others, we must first feel good about ourselves.”

She added:

“Our motto is: ‘Alone we are invisible, together we are invincible.’ This collaboration with New Hair Graft perfectly reflects that spirit.”

A Global Beauty & Health Approach

The event also featured Dr Marie-Christine Piat, aesthetic physician, who shared expert advice on skin care, offering a holistic approach to beauty and well-being.

Participants received wellness gift boxes from Unicorn, distributor of French brands:

• Lazartigue (hair care)

• SVR (dermatological skincare)

  
  

These products are known for their plant-based formulations and skin-friendly benefits.

A Long-Term Commitment to Education and Excellence

This conference is part of New Hair Graft’s broader mission to:

• Educate the public on hair health

• Collaborate with hairdressing schools

• Improve access to medical information

• Promote confidence and self-image

  
  

👉 Continuous training and knowledge-sharing remain central to the clinic’s strategy to raise industry standards in Mauritius.

Conclusion

Through initiatives like this, New Hair Graft reinforces its position as a leader in hair restoration in Mauritius, combining:

✔ Medical expertise

✔ Patient education

✔ Ethical practices

✔ Personalized care

👉 Because hair health is not just aesthetic—it’s deeply linked to confidence, identity, and overall well-being.
