Dr. Bernardino A. Arocha, Diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and Fellow of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons since 2002, takes hair loss very seriously. Having experienced firsthand hair loss in his 20s, he knows a
Mention RealSelf to redeem.
I was very happy with the results. Dr. Arocha has mastered his craft. I am glad I didn’t risk it going to Turkey to save a few bucks. I would definitely recommend Dr. Arocha for anyone seeking a hair transplant.
50 y.o male of Indian/Middle Eastern background. I saw the doctor for two procedures over two adjacent days. Both were for FUE procedures with the second day using my beard as a donor site (about 3200 + 2400 grafts). Transplant sites were the crown and front portions of my scalp. From beginning to end the experience was amazing. I had FUT done about 15 years ago by a big name firm and this was, by far, a way better experience and result. From the weeks leading to the procedure the team was clear on preparation to the day of the operation. The day of, they took some pictures, the doctor marked up my head and he and his assistant started the extraction. His assistant did the heavy lifting and the doctor was right there observing and speaking with me. This portion was the morning and the afternoon was the implant portion done by 2 other assistants (the doctor checking on me periodically). I also opted for the PRP treatment which really helped everything go well in recovery. I had the rare opportunity to come in the next day and have beard hair transplanted since there wasn't quite enough from the original donor site. Recovery was great, yes a bit uncomfortable for the first month (itchy, pokey feelings) with the nerves and everything reattaching. The doctor also put me on a daily regimen of propecia and minoxidyl (which I should have started years ago). From start to finish, the staff was professional, attentive and just super nice people. I really felt comfortable there and not just a number on a card. I can see why they are so happy as they are playing a huge positive role in people's lives. The location is in a offbeat area of Houston and the facilities are super clean and sleek. I felt like I was in someone's model home. Very cool. At the 4 month checkup I visited the doctor (I drove from Austin to Houston) and the staff (as well as I) were amazed at the results after such a short time. A LOT of growth, very little shedding and just a really full look. My hair stylist was completely blown away at my first haircut in years.... Also I was always shying away from photos as my scalp would always show thru. Not anymore. Overall, super happy with the results and very happy I spent the extra cash instead of finding the "right deal". His prices are definitely a bit higher than some, but in this area, finding a "good deal" is no bueno for your body. I still talk to the staff quite regularly and they really do care about your well being. Cheers to Dr Arocha, Alexander, Anabele and Ruby. Just an A+ staff and even tho I hope to never have to do this again, I would go if need be and would HIGHLY recommend anyone to do the same.
I would like to leave a very positive review on my experience with Dr. Arocha and his team. My whole time with Dr. Arocha from my initial meeting via phone call, to prepping & anticipating, and finally my operation were the best treatment I have had. Ruby & Annabelle kept me feeling like I didn’t have anything to worry about with pain. Dr. Arocha’s assistant that helped with extraction was really cool and he made sure I never felt like I couldn’t approach him for anything I need. Dr. Arocha’s whole team is very knowledgeable and supportive. They answered any questions I had and never made me feel insecure for asking any questions. Dr. Arocha’s work is above and he does impeccable work. He caters to your needs and wants and is always willing to hear out your your concerns and break down everything so that you feel ready and excited for your operation. Dr. Arocha approaches everything like an artist and I could not have asked for a better doctor to make my operation as successful as he did. I can’t wait to see how my results turn out once my transplant starts growing in naturally. I cannot be more grateful and thankful that I was able to have Dr. Arocha and his team make my case! Thank you Dr. Arocha & team!
I’d like to take this opportunity to share with you my opinion regarding the standard of care I experienced at Arocha Hair Restoration. As a Navy fighter pilot and airline captain, I’ve made my career by recognizing and selecting only the best of the best to work with. When I met Dr. Bernardino Arocha, I knew I was dealing with a fellow professional who takes his work as seriously as I do. When I arrived for my hair transplantation, Dr. Arocha, his assistant, Alex and his entire team of professionals took the time to discuss my goals and precisely what we could do as a team to achieve them. I need to emphasize, Dr. Arocha performs comprehensive and premium hair restoration services. This is not your average hair transplantation, performed largely by technicians. On the contrary, Dr Arocha’s skilled hands and professional judgement are present in every phase of the procedure. This level of surgeon involvement is increasingly rare in the hair transplantation industry. Dr Arocha’s results speak for themselves. He has a long history of satisfied patients–and I am one of them.
Highly recommended. Amazing experience with amazing results in less than 3 months I started to see new hair growing it has been actually better than I expected. What I had done was a PRP, I live in San Antonio and whenever I have a question the staff is very friendly and they always answer me ASAP. Having hair loss as a woman is devastating, I tried different treatments that wouldnt work and PRP was one of the last options b4 a hair transplant and thanks to Dr Arocha I dont have to go that route!!! Im very very happy with my results!
awesome experience and highly recommend do your homework on Drs and you will understand why Dr Arocha is first pick I went to another DR for FUT couple of years ago and was not good Dr Arocha fixed and made it right with FUE procedure that looks great and I am very happy with him and his staff, all excellent !
I cannot recommend Dr. Arocha and his team more. I had a small transplant done before and I regret getting it done elsewhere. Dr. Arocha and his staff are very professional and I felt extremely comfortable during the whole procedure. My results have been unbelievable. You can 100% tell the skill of his team compared to my first procedure. Anyone thinking about getting a transplant should strongly consider Dr. Arocha.
My experience with Dr. Arocha and his staff have been nothing but spectacular. My results over a 6 month time frame speak for itself. Mind you, I'm not big on wasting money. I did thorough research before selecting Dr. Arocha and his team for my operation. Most clinics will push you with an option that they're most comfortable with. Dr. Arocha and his team are legit, well versed and accredited in the hair restoration process. Save your time and money and go with a team that ACTUALLY knows what they're doing. Highly recommend Dr. Arocha!
Dr Arocha and staff were great before during and after my FUE treatment. Dr Arocha is the only doctor who took the time to meet with me during my consultation; all others being a sales staff member. He was honest and straightforward with my options, and listened to my medical and medication issues to formulate a plan prior to treatment. I’m 6 weeks post FUE and very pleased with the results.
I am a doctor from McGill university Canada . I have dupa diffuse unpatterned alopecia and doctors in Canada had little to suggest . I googled best American doctors and my skill has always been to hone in on the best people . I flew all the way to Texas to see dr Arocha . I realized he does the standard stuff everyone advertises but he does a twist to it all - a sprinkle of extra that others don’t know and that sprinkle is called genius . His prp was specially done for only one treatment and after three weeks it’s effective and was painless. He also knows about vast unrelated topics to extreme details another sign of a genius
