The Gabel Center is located in the greater Portland/Vancouver metropolitan area. This means that the Gabel Center has met rigorous, nationally recognized standards of quality of health care. We offer the very latest in hair restoration options including surgical hair restoration using the Follicular Unit Excision method and the strip harvest method. Dr. Gabel has been practicing the FUE technique since 2004 when the method was still in its infancy. In addition, Dr. Gabel also specializes in a new version of the FUE technique, called the no-shave, or non-shaven FUE, when the patient does not have to have their head shaved as in the traditional FUE method.
