I had 1500 follicular transplants from my donor area to the crown of my head June 9, 2017. The staff of Hair By Robotics were honest, friendly, and , most importantly, attentive to my needs as a patient. They told me everything that would happen and what to expect in the coming months. I am now 5 months post operation and the results are really starting to show.
First of all the entire staff with Hair By Robotics was fantastic during the entire process from initial consultation to follow up more than a year later. At age 30 I had thinning hair and almost complete hair loss on the crown of my head. In an industry where I spend all of my time in front of clients, it was affecting my self esteem in large meeting situations. Hair By Robotics had just opened up their office in Wichita and I was going to be one of their first patients. Needless to say there was a lot of hesitation/nerves leading up to the procedure. The procedure it self was easy and the recovery time...well, I was back in the office the next day! Now for the important stuff....Results!!!! 2 of my clients have gone and had the procedures after seeing my results and I will be getting a second procedure to complete the "transformation". For the first time since highschool I am comfortable not just having a buzz cut! What are you waiting for? If you are considering any kind of treatment I would suggest that Hair By Robotics be your first phone call...
I didn't notice my hair loss until my girlfriend casually pointed it out. After I did a little research, I talked to my doc and got a prescription for Finisteride to help stop my loss. I took the prescription for 6 months and noticed that my hair loss stopped, but I still wanted to add some more density through the top and in the corners where my hairline had receded. That's when I decided to meet with Dr. Barbieri. Let me start off saying, I knew 6 months before I did a procedure that I did not want a strip procedure. I read so many negative reviews and didn't want a scar. I'm only 28, and I enjoying buzzing my hair in the summer so I didn't want to lose that option. Once I learned that the Artas FUE was available in KC, I knew that was the best choice for me. I scheduled my procedure to coincide with a few days off work. The procedure was much easier than expected. I arrived at the office at 7 am, and talked with the Doctor and his team. They cut my hair as they needed to, and gave me an antibiotic and a Xanax to relax me. Then they numbed my scalp with a local anesthetic and the team and robot started working. I napped on and off for a couple of hours. After they finished taking out my new hair, they numbed the top and made recipient sites for the new hair. Then I watched Netflix while the team placed the new hair. It was a low key day I did 1000 grafts and am pleased with my result I am sharing my result because I want other guys to know there are options besides a strip procedure to get your hair back. Updated on 17 Nov 2016: There's been no follow up since my procedure. I'm very disappointed with this. Not once has Hair By Robotics or any of their employees checked on me. On top of that, when I cut my hair with a 1 guard, I can see the area where they took my grafts from. I would love someone to explain to me how this could happen with such a small procedure, but they have not even contacted me. I was aware that their could be a tiny scar, but I thought that the purpose of the Robot was to spread out the harvesting. They don't care about their patients, results, or hair transplant at all. Needless to say, if I ever have another hair transplant, it won't be from a company like Hair By Robotics.
I underwent a 1700-graft transplant at Hair by Robotics in March of 2016. Craig and the gang are nice people. The positives end there, however. The procedure is far more painful then they let on, and recovery takes longer as well. That isn't even the worst of it. Results for an $11,000 transplant at Hair by Robotics are barely discernible. 20-months post-operation, and my hair appears nearly the same. I went in for a thicker frontal hairline and crown, and they could not even pull that off. You can see grafts that took here and there, but I ended up with vastly underwhelming results considering the recovery and expenses. My close friends confirm my identical before/after. Hair by Robotics does not offer refunds for unsatisfactory results. I cannot stress enough, do NOT come here. Please spare yourselves the pain, expenses, and disappointment.
