I have recently had a hair transplant procedure done by Dr. Ken Anderson at Anderson Center for Hair in Atlanta. Leading up to the procedure I had a consultation with the patient coordinator and Dr. Anderson himself. After viewing my photos, I had submitted of my hair, they explained the procedure to me and gave me plenty of time to ask questions. Once I signed up, I received pre-surgical instructions for what to do and not do in the days leading up to the procedure. Following those instructions gave me confidence when I walked into the procedure room that I had done everything possible on my end for the procedure to be successful. I found the staff to be very professional and courteous. They made sure that I was comfortable and at ease. My wife was even able to come in at the beginning when Dr. Anderson was “marking my head” as to where my new hairline would be. The procedure itself was painless and once the procedure was over, I got up and walked out without any issue. I came back the next day for a head wash and was able to speak with Dr. Anderson and the staff again about any issues or questions I might have. Once I was sent home, I had 10 days of daily instructions as to how to care for my hair, that which was transplanted and the areas where the transplants came from. The instructions were very easy to follow. They even provided me with an after-hours phone number to call with any questions. I used that after-hours phone number and actually got a live person to speak with! As promised, I received a telephone call on the 7th day after my procedure to see how I was doing. While my hair is still very short so soon after the procedure, my wife, family and friends are very impressed with my new hair. I have a hairline now and hair on top of my head. We are all very pleased with the results.
“Excellent experience with Dr. Anderson” I am a practicing surgeon and was referred to Dr. Anderson by another surgical colleague. I had done my research and was very impressed by Dr. Anderson’s resume and experience. On my first visit, he was very friendly, professional and informative. He used a camera to show me what my hair density in the donor area looked like (which wasn’t great). He took the time to ask me what other treatments I had tried, which were virtually all, including a previous FUT transplant (by another surgeon, using the strip method). Dr. Anderson also took the time to talk to me about the areas of my hair loss that were most concerning to me. Together, we came up with a plan for an FUE transplant that would best address my concerns, considering my modest donor area density and history of previous FUT transplant. I had the procedure about 6 weeks ago. Overall, it went flawlessly. I had zero pain during the procedure. In fact, I think I slept thru most of it. I had a little bit of swelling under my eyes on post of day 2 which resolved in 2 days, probably b/c I wasn’t sleeping with my head elevated (I tried to but ended up sliding down during the night). His post op instructions are very detailed and tell you exactly what to do on each day after surgery. Makes it very easy. As anyone who has had or is interested in a hair transplant knows, I will not see results this early, it will take 3-6 months to start to see the new hairs grow in. But I couldn’t be happier with the process and the procedure itself. This procedure went much better and smoother than my original hair transplant in 2019 performed by another surgeon. As a surgeon myself it is hard to give up control and put your trust in another surgeon, but I’m so glad I did. Dr. Anderson is a surgeon you can trust to perform your procedure flawlessly. He is definitely a perfectionist. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is considering a hair transplant.
I don’t leave a lot of reviews, but feel very inclined to share my positive experience at Anderson Center for Hair. If you’re even considering a hair transplant, you HAVE to go here. You just don’t meet a lot of people like Dr. Anderson…you can tell he chose this path because he is super passionate about what he does and actually wants you being happy with the outcome. His team feels like family and is warm and welcoming to you. I was a bit nervous for my hair transplant procedure, but they actually made it very painless! I really invested in this procedure and am so so glad I actually followed through and got it done. When the procedure starts they are all serious about giving you the most relaxing experience and are very professional during the whole process. I can honestly say that the procedure itself was almost painless! Of course, you have a recovery period afterwards. But I sit here two weeks later, basically back to my normal routine. And now I feel more confident about my hairline! I love knowing that it is all my own hair which feels so natural as I watch it grow out. Amazing. Thank you so much Dr. Anderson and your wonderful team for your kindness, attentiveness, and care!
I remember the first time my hair started to thin—I would stop at nothing to hide it. I wore baseball caps everywhere I went and used hair fibers to conceal the thinning areas, hoping no one would ever notice. But as the thinning progressed, the fibers just weren’t cutting it anymore. After all, there’s only so much you can spray before it becomes obvious. I started researching clinics both in and outside the country. That’s when I came across the Anderson Center for Hair. The clinic had fantastic reviews, so I decided to give them a shot—and I’m so glad I did. When I walked into the consultation office, I saw award after award lining the walls, which further confirmed I was in the right place. I had my no-shave FUE procedure in June 2025, and I’m thrilled with the results so far. Dr. Anderson is truly an artist and his team took the time to answer every question I had (and believe me, I had plenty). On the day of my procedure, I met with the doctor to go over every step. I was anxious and nervous, but the team made sure I felt comfortable and assured me everything would turn out great. Before the procedure began, I was given some pain medication. By the time the procedure started, I was almost asleep—I literally didn’t feel any pain whatsoever. If you’re looking for a phenomenal hair restoration clinic, look no further. The Anderson Center for Hair is the place to go.
As a practicing physician myself, I am very discerning when it comes to the individuals involved in my personal health and betterment. Dr. Anderson and his staff have exceeded my expectations with regard to professionalism, knowledge, preparedness, and communication regarding the FUE procedure and expectations. The day of surgery, it was apparent that this clinic does not cut corners when it comes to patient safety or commitment to a satisfactory outcome. I had an adequate understanding of the procedure involved and was given the opportunity to provide input into my new proposed hairline. There is a certain degree of artistic creativity in re-creating a youthful and realistic hairline. Dr. Anderson possesses this skill and that can be hard to find. Everything was explained in a clear, step-by-step manner: how to wash my hair, what products to avoid, how to sleep, and even tips for reducing swelling. I felt thoroughly prepared for what to expect each day after the procedure. It made the entire healing process feel less overwhelming. The staff was very responsive, especially Matt. Whenever I had a question or needed reassurance, they were quick to help. I’ve followed their instructions closely and haven’t had any complications, just steady progress and great early results. If you’re thinking about getting a hair transplant, make sure you’re choosing a clinic that cares about aftercare as much as the procedure itself. This team truly delivered! I would highly recommend Dr. Anderson and his clinic to anyone who might be interested in hair restoration.
Dr. Ken Anderson has been amazing through my entire hair journey. I first stumble upon him when I was researching board certified hair transplant surgeons in the United States and I was astounded by his education and career history. When I first met him earlier this year back in January, he addressed all the questions I had and worries I had. He was straightforward and honest. Fast forward to July 2025, he performed my FUT surgery. I was very anxious and nervous. The experience was painless and I am confident he has restored my confidence within myself. The pre op and post op instructions are easy to follow. The surgical team periodically will call to check on you. Overall wonderful experience.
Well, where to begin. I’ve been self conscious for years about my substantial and continued hair loss. I’ve tried numerous shampoo and topical products with little success. I did notice a reduction in hair loss when I used a minoxidil and finesteride combination product but discontinued use when I didn’t notice any additional growth. My only choice at that point was to research hair transplant surgery and weigh the pros and cons. It appeared that the pros greatly outweighed the cons. During my research I combed (pun intended) the internet for the most recommended clinics along with reading reviews of clinics of interest. I even looked into some clinics in Turkey, the supposed capital of hair replacement surgery. I quickly dismissed this option due to my concern of having the procedure done over seas and not being able to head back to the clinic if issues arose. Also, the lower cost didn’t sway my concerns since the procedure was such an important life event. I narrowed down my search for a reputable and highly sought after clinic and before long I got the “warm fuzzy” feeling about one clinic in particular, The Anderson Center for Hair. After making my decision about Dr. Anderson I did substantial research on his education, training, teaching and amazing accolades and awards he has received over the years. I truly felt that I would be in good hands and had made the right choice. I decided to setup an initial consultation with Dr. Ken Anderson in his Alpharetta location. The consultation started out with a 30 minute discussion with Matt Longshore who couldn’t have been more knowledgeable and caring. He was also very responsive via text and email before and after our initial meeting. After 30 minutes or so Dr. Anderson came in and we spoke for another 30 minutes. He asked about my wants and needs as well as expectations. His attention to detail about what to expect was very helpful in setting my goals and comfort level. Dr. Anderson went into detail about the science behind hair growth and the subsequent hair loss. At this point I was ready to set my appointment and get ready for this new journey. I arrived at the Alpharetta clinic at 7am and after a few administrative details we were off. The medical staff made me extremely comfortable from the start and with Dr. Andersons amazing music playlist coming from the ceiling speakers I felt like I was hanging out in my living room (maybe a slight exaggeration). Nonetheless, with the administration of numbing as well as anti-anxiety meds the procedure began. I did have a substantial number of grafts implanted so it was an all day procedure but because I was kept comfortable It was over before I knew it. Dr. Anderson and his staff are very well coordinated in the process. Afterwards I was prepped and ready to go home with my goodie bag of meds, healing items and instructions. I came back to the office the next morning for a quick scalp wash, inspection by Dr. Anderson and additional set of care instructions. It's now been 8 days since my procedure and all seems to be going as planned. A representative called me yesterday to check on me and answer any questions that I had. Obviously my journey has just begun but I have to admit that my due diligence paid off and selecting Dr. Anderson and his clinic will certainly bring success for my goal of a more youthful look and the confidence that will bring. Thank you Dr. Ken Anderson and staff.
I had my first FUT performed by Dr. Anderson at the Alpharetta location in 2019 due to moderate/severe hair loss on the top of my head. At the time, my crown didn’t need to be addressed. I most recently had two more procedures (FUT and FUE in June 2025) done by Dr. Anderson to address the top again (the only hairs that were standing were the ones he transplanted originally – otherwise, I would’ve been bald on top) and the crown. My alopecia gene is strong even though I did regular maintenance (minoxidil, laser cap, PRP). The FUT was performed on a Thursday and the FUE was the next day (Friday). I was a little concerned about the trauma done to my head on back to back days, but he and is office answered any questions I had. My crown area and the top were both addressed on these days. I am currently 8 days post op with no pain whatsoever from the incision, donor sites from FUE, or from the graft placement. Dr. Anderson provides a protocol explaining everything in simple language on how to care for the grafts post-surgery. My incision is one of the best looking surgical incisions I have laid eyes on – I am in the healthcare field, and I see a lot myself…it is barely noticeable even after my entire head was shaved very short to allow for a more successful surgery. The staff in the office are very accommodating as well. Lunch was provided both days from Jersey Mikes. His office (including himself) has called me a total of 4x to check on me since I had the surgeries. I could not recommend Dr. Anderson and his team enough. Anybody that knows me knows that I research everything, and I only choose the best. I spent hours researching surgeons in 2019 before I landed on Dr. Anderson – it doesn’t get any better than this triple board certified, artistic, compassionate, and highly skilled surgeon! I’d recommend him a million times over, and I gladly drove 4+ hours both times to ensure I got the best care available.
I recently underwent an FUE procedure with Dr. Anderson and his team, and I can confidently say it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. As someone who came into this process with little knowledge about hair restoration, I was initially overwhelmed, but Dr. Anderson’s team took the time to educate me thoroughly. They patiently addressed every question and concern I had, no matter how small, making me feel supported and informed every step of the way. Their professionalism and genuine care put me at ease, and I felt confident in their expertise. The procedure itself went smoothly, and the recovery timeline they provided was spot-on. Everything unfolded exactly as they outlined, which gave me peace of mind during the healing process. While I’m still waiting to see the final results, I’m already in a great place mentally and physically, thanks to the care I received. Dr. Anderson’s attention to detail and the team’s commitment to patient satisfaction truly set them apart. I’d highly recommend them to anyone considering an FUE procedure—well done!
I had my second procedure at Anderson Center for hair Alpharetta, GA in March 2025. First procedure was at the same location in 2020. The reason I wanted a second was to get thicker hair as the first procedure was a success and that hair is still holding strong. The staff is always amazing and helps limiting the anxiousness of having the procedure performed. The 2nd procedure was just a smooth as the first. With both procedures I went with the FUE procedure and the procedure seemed quick and painless. Recovery was smooth as long as you follow the step by step instructions that are provided by the Anderson Center for Hair team. They check in often during recovery and are always available if you have any questions. I couldn’t recommend them enough for a procedure, as the results always look great. Most people don’t know I had a procedure unless I tell them, given the look/result is very natural looking. I hope this review helps with reducing anyone’s anxiety about having this done. I highly recommend anyone interested to set up a consultation with the Anderson Hair Center team to get further details. They will treat you great and you will have a great result if you decide to go through with it.
