Dr.
José
Lorenzo
graduated
from
Madrid´s
Complutense
University
in
1991
in
1991.
He
completed
his
specialization
in
General
Surgery
and
Thoracic
Surgery
at
the
Carlos
G.
Duran
General
Hospital
(UBA,
Bs.
As.),
a
specialized
area
in
which
he
worked
until
he began in hair restoration in 2002.
In 2003 he observed the first hair transplants by FUE during a trip to the DHI clinic in Athens,
one
year
after
FUE
was
first
described
by
Dr.
Rassman
and
Dr.
Bernstein
(Rassman,
W.T.,
and
R.
M.
Bernstein.
Follicular
unit
extraction:
minimally
invasive
surgery
for
hair
transplantation.
Dermatological
Surg.
2002;

-
728).
Impressed
by
the
skill
required
and
the
potential
of
a
minimally
invasive
technique
which
offered
a
natural
solution,
he
decided
to
put
all
his
energy
into
learning
and
developing the method which was then in its infancy.
Dr.
Lorenzo
is
a
pioneer
in
Spain
in
the
development
of
the
FUE
technique,
first
as
Chief
Surgeon
at
the
Ceta
Clinic
and
afterwards
at
his
own
clinic,
Medilor
(2008),
in
the
city
of
Alcobendas,
Madrid.
He
has
performed
studies
to
develop
the
technique,
just
like
other
pioneers such as
Dr. Cole
,
Dr. Woods
,
Dr. Jones
,
Dr. Feller
or
DHI
, did in the early years of FUE.
He
has
been
a
member
of
the
ISHRS
(International
Society
of
Hair
Restoration
Surgery)
since
2006
after
attending
the
congress
held
in
San
Diego
(US).
At
the
congress
in
Las
Vegas
in
2007,
he
made
his
first
presentation
which
was
based
on
the
anchoring
system
which
connects
the
follicular
units
to
the
surrounding
tissues
and
its
application
in
the
FUE
technique
("Skill
vs.
Tools").
Since
then
he
has
actively
participated
in
all
of
the
annual
congresses
with
talks,
videos,
debates,
live
procedure
presentations
(Patient
Live View), Workshop Faculty and Director, Expert Faculty during Breakfast or Coffee, Restore Operation (ISHRS Foundation) etc...
He
was
invited
for
the
first
time
to
operate
live
at
the
1st
Mediterranean
Workshop,
in
Israel,
by
Dr.
Ginzburg
,
in
2009.
He
is
currently
a
habitual
guest
at
live
operations
at
the
numerous
workshops
on
FUE
throughout
the
world
(Orlando,
Seoul,
Manchester,
Bangalore, Brussels, Sao Paolo etc...).
He
organized
his
own
workshop
in
Madrid
with
Dr.
Ginzburg
at
the
2nd
Mediterranean
FUE
Workshop
in
May
of
2013.
Present
at
this
workshop
were
Dr.
Harris
,
Dr.
Feriduni,
Dr.
Devroye

Dr.
Erdogan
;
In
total
there
were
130
attendees
with
10
procedures
being
performed and 9.361 follicular units transplanted in 3 days.
In
the
development
of
his
particular
technique
of
implanting,
Dr.
Lorenzo
emphasizes
the
use
of
a
tool
which
he
considers
fundamental
for
the
results
he
obtains:
the
Implanter.
In
2009
he
collaborated
with
the
Korean
company
Hans
Biomed
in
the
design
and production of what is now considered to be the best implanter: the Lion Implanter.
Lion Implanter.
Along
with
Hasson
&
Wong
Dr.
Lorenzo
also
does
pioneering
work
in
presenting
on
the
internet
videos
of
the
results
of
his
transplants,
substituting
the
usual
photographs
which
can
be
easily
manipulated.
His
page
in
youtube
,
contains
more
than
250
videos of hair transplant results.
In
2008
he
opened

in
Buenos
Aires
with
his
resident
study
colleague,
Dr.
Alejandro
Chueco
.

in

which
is
tasked
by
the
international
society
for
