Review of Hair Transplant Procedure with Dr.Ken Anderson. Atlanta, GA

Looking back, 11 months after I had my procedure, there was NOTHING that I should have been concerned about. The ARTAS robot was awesome, the recovery time of about a week was fine, and my wife cannot find a trace of a scar from the transplanted area. It took about 6 months before it really started to all come in, but since it has, I LOVE it. When I look at my ridiculous 'before' pictures I can't believe how different I look - it's not an exaggeration, and a bit cliche, but it really has added years back to my life. I actually HAVE a hairline again, and don't feel like wearing a stupid hat every weekend because I have hair and it looks GOOD. 

I had a hair transplant with Anderson Center for Hair in Atlanta in the summer of 2016, and I have been BEYOND satisfied with the results these past seven years. For any man reading this, I promise I’m just a normal guy - early forties now, exhausted dad, incredible husband. I like college football, going to church, and playing old video games. This review is for any man, who like I once was, is interested in a hair transplant but unsure what to expect. When I first had the surgery, I was a bit apprehensive and unsure what to expect, despite having watched videos and read numerous testimonials about what a hair transplant was like on youtube. Honestly, all those commercials on TV showing men getting out of pools with the dumb infomercial like music and assurances of what your hair could look like seemed kind of ‘fake’ and made me unsure of how authentic the whole ‘hair transplant’ thing really was. However, I HATED losing my hair, and my desire to try and do something about it eventually outweighed any concerns I had about anything involved, and I looked into Anderson Center for Hair. I shouldn’t have worried about anything - at all. I met with Dr. Anderson (who was extraordinarily nice and down-to-earth) for a consultation (might have been twice before the surgery). He walked me through the options, and I ended up choosing the Artas Robotic Hair Transplant procedure (basically, hair from the back of my head was transplanted to the top and front, where I had lost it). It’s been a few years now, but I honestly have zero recollection of any pain whatsoever from the operation. I think they numbed my head (like they do at the dentist), and I don’t remember feeling anything. I thought it might have been, but the whole surgery was not a big deal like I worried about. Not at all. The initial hair that was transplanted took a few months to begin to grow in (which I knew would be the case from my consultation with Dr. Anderson), but once it did I was blown away. This procedure is LEGIT. I had a hairline again! I could actually grow out my hair and comb it. I no longer felt insecure about how bad my thinning hair looked because those days were over. Yes, I had to be a bit patient after the surgery before the hair grew in. Again, it was a few months before it started to grow in. But it was WORTH it. Also, it looks legitimate. I honestly don’t believe anyone who ever saw me (who didn’t know I’d had the surgery) would ever have it occur to his or her mind. It really does look natural (maybe procedures years ago didn’t, but that is not the case in today). I cannot emphasize this enough. The procedure really does make your hair look great! No scarring or anything like that by the way! Anderson Center for Hair is phenomenal, and I have nothing to gain by saying so. I like Dr. Anderson, I like the staff who worked with me; they are good folks who know what they’re doing. Nothing wrong with going bald, but you don’t have to if you don’t want to, and I’m telling you, this place and Dr. Anderson will take care of you, and you will not be disappointed. Have a consultation and ask any questions you may have, schedule a surgery, have a little patience, then enjoy having your hair (and probably your confidence and machismo) back!
