Provider Review
My experience with Dr. Behnam was excellent. He was recommended to me by my generalist, whom I know from experience recommends not just the best Doctors, but the best doctors that also have a good people skills. That’s important to me because I don’t like feeling like a number in a doctor’s office. My first impression was indeed quite positive. It felt like a family business- in fact Dr. Sean Behnam shares the space with his Dermatologist twin brother Ben, so there really is a family feel. Despite my positive first impression I still shopped around because after all it was a lot of money for me and I don’t take surgery lightly… What I realized was that most other places were more like factories, where they try to squeeze through at least two patients/procedures per day to maximize profits. Honestly no other place felt like they really cared about me like Dr. Behnam and his colleague Marc did during my original consultation. With Dr. Behnam you got the sense that he wants to do give you his all during your procedure; you are the only patient he’ll work on that day so you get his undivided attention. He also makes it clear that if you are not a good candidate for the procedure he will tell you… I did not realize how true this was until I checked out other places where it seemed obvious they did not seem nearly as concerned about setting me up for best results. And in that sense you can tell Dr. Behnam is not in it for the money, he really loves his craft and takes pride in his work. He explained everything about the procedure, how they randomly place the grafts so it looks more natural, how they follow the flow of surrounding follicles so that it seamlessly matches existing hair. Confident of my choice I had the procedure done a few months later (I added some before & after pics to this review.) That was in 2012 and 5 years later I’m really happy I did it, because it was a complete success and I can’t imagine how terrible my head would look now if I hadn’t done it! What’s more, everything he explained about doing their best to make it look natural and match surrounding hair was true- over the years no one has been able to tell I had work done, and the few hair cutters who noticed the scar (where they take the grafts from in the back of your head) said it’s some of the best work they’ve seen because they didn’t notice I had work done before they saw the scar. (You really have to be digging under the hair back there to notice it.) The follow ups were also excellent. They don’t stop caring about you once the surgery is done- in fact Dr. Behnam is the only Doctor I’ve ever met who gave me his cell phone after the procedure in case I had any issues or questions. I was allowed 10 laser sessions after the procedure, a machine that stimulates hair growth. I could tell they really wanted to make sure I got the best results possible. So given my experience I highly recommend Dr. Sean Behnam at Dermatology & Hair Restoration Specialists. After all these years I still feel really grateful to them not just for the great results in growing my hair back, but the positive experience and environment in which it was done.
