🩺 Why Choosing an Experienced Surgeon in a Level 3 Facility Is the Smartest Choice for Hair Transplant Success
When it comes to hair restoration, your choice of surgeon and facility determines everything — your safety, comfort, and final results. While many clinics offer hair transplants in Ontario, only a select few, like Bespoke Hair MD in Kingston, perform procedures in a CPSO Level 3 surgical facility, led by an experienced plastic surgeon.
This distinction matters — here’s why.
⚕️ What Is a CPSO Level 3 Facility?
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) regulates out-of-hospital surgical standards across the province. Facilities are ranked from Level 1 to Level 3.
Level 1: Minor procedures under local anesthesia.
Level 2: Moderate sedation and basic monitoring permitted.
Level 3: Hospital-grade environment with full anesthesia capabilities, continuous monitoring, and advanced infection control.
At Bespoke Hair MD, every SmartGraft® FUE or FUT hair transplant takes place in our CPSO Level 3 accredited surgical suite — the same standard required for major plastic surgery procedures.
That means:
Complete sterility and operating-room protocols
Certified anesthesia and emergency equipment
Continuous vital sign monitoring
Enhanced infection prevention
Safe combination of multiple procedures
This level of accreditation ensures the highest degree of patient safety and procedural flexibility available in Ontario.
👩⚕️ The Value of a Surgeon-Led Hair Transplant
A hair transplant is more than a technical process — it’s an art that requires surgical precision and aesthetic judgment.
At Bespoke Hair MD, all procedures are led by Dr. Kim Meathrel, a board-certified (Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada) plastic surgeon with over 25 years of surgical experience.
Her expertise ensures:
Meticulous planning based on scalp anatomy and hair growth patterns
Hairlines designed for natural, age-appropriate results
Precise graft placement for density, angle, and direction
Seamless blending between transplanted and native hair
Safe integration of additional rejuvenation procedures
Many “medspa” clinics do not have surgeon involvement, relying instead on technicians with limited medical oversight. At Bespoke, every step — from design to implantation — is directed by a surgeon who understands both aesthetics and anatomy.
🔬 SmartGraft vs. NeoGraft: Why Newer Technology Matters
Both SmartGraft and NeoGraft are automated systems for FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation. However, SmartGraft represents the newer generation of this technology — refined for better graft preservation, speed, and results.
Feature | SmartGraft | NeoGraft |
Graft Preservation | Closed, temperature-controlled, hydrated environment | Open handling — higher risk of graft dehydration |
Automation | Fully integrated, real-time graft counting and storage | Earlier-generation, semi-automated |
Efficiency | Faster extraction and reduced handling time | More manual transfer required |
Result Potential | Improved graft survival and healing | Operator-dependent |
SmartGraft protects each graft from the moment it’s harvested, keeping follicles hydrated and viable. But even the best technology depends on the surgeon’s skill — proper angle, placement, and patterning determine how natural and lasting the result will be.
At Bespoke Hair MD, patients benefit from the latest SmartGraft technology in the safest surgical setting, under the care of a highly experienced plastic surgeon.
💡 FUE vs. FUT: Tailored to You
Every patient’s hair restoration needs are unique. That’s why we offer both FUE and FUT techniques, carefully selected based on your goals, donor density, and hairstyle preferences.
FUE (SmartGraft):
No linear scar
Minimal downtime
Ideal for patients who wear their hair short or require precise restoration (temples, crown, or brows).
FUT (Strip Method):
Higher graft yield per session
Suitable for patients requiring maximum density in one procedure.
Because we operate in a Level 3 surgical suite, both can be performed comfortably under local anesthesia or mild sedation — with hospital-level monitoring and safety.
🔄 Combining Procedures for Superior Rejuvenation
A key advantage of a Level 3 facility is the ability to safely perform combined procedures for comprehensive rejuvenation.
For example:
A lower eyelid blepharoplasty with a brow or temple hair transplant
Hair restoration combined with fat grafting or laser resurfacing
Facial contouring paired with SmartGraft hairline refinement
Combining treatments in a single session minimizes recovery time, reduces cost, and achieves balanced, natural outcomes — something only possible in a fully accredited surgical environment.
