About
Dr. Miguel Canales is a leading authority in hair restoration surgery, with a focused expertise in follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular isolation technique (FIT). His seminal work, "Examination of the Exit Angle of Hair at the Skin Surface versus the Internal Angle of Hair as It Relates to the FUE/FIT Harvesting Method" (2017), has become a cornerstone reference in the field, accumulating 10 citations that underscore its practical significance. In this study, Dr. Canales provided critical insights into the three-dimensional geometry of hair follicles, demonstrating that the visible exit angle at the skin surface often differs from the internal angle within the dermis—a finding that directly impacts graft survival and donor site morbidity. By clarifying this anatomical nuance, he has helped refine manual, mechanized, and robotic harvesting techniques, reducing transection rates and improving outcomes for patients. Dr. Canales’s work bridges the gap between surgical precision and biological reality, making him a respected voice among peers and a valuable resource for trainees seeking to master the art of minimally invasive hair transplantation.
