Dr. Farhad Ardesh is a Hair Guru!!!

Dr. Farhad Ardesh is a life saver! If you're looking for an honest, gentle and very knowledgeable doctor specializing in alopecia; he's your guy! My hair loss journey started in early 2021 when I moved to Los Angeles from New York City. My hair started thinning and shedding severely in January 2023. By July 2023, I had two psalm size bald spots located on the top and right sides of my head. I contacted my PCP in NYC and a host of testing, appointments and specialist visits ensued. NO ONE, not general medicine, internal medicine, endocrinology, gynecology or dermatology was able to provide answers to the questions I was asking or solutions to this very BIG issue. I did bloodwork, biopsies, different treatment plans (topical, oral medication, added more therapy sessions) to no avail. I spent a very ridiculous amount of money in the hopes of obtaining answers to my questions and restoring my hair. I cried daily to the point where my husband reached out to Dr. Ardesh himself. Dr. Ardesh was kind and gentle. He assessed my scalp briefly and told me to set up an appointment immediately. "Don't worry, I'll help you. You're going to be fine" were probably the kindest words of hope I've received in a while. Given my experiences with all other MDs, I was a bit skeptical. I ended up getting a same day appointment thanks to his amazing staff and was seen and treated that same day (October 20, 2023). Dr. Ardesh gave me a series of injections directly on my scalp and a home treatment plan to follow. I was told to follow instructions and follow up with him and his office on my progress. He followed up the next day to see how I was doing. His office followed up a week later to make sure everything was going well. I literally followed up with him today about my progress and I was ecstatic! I received top tier care from both him and his staff members. October 20, 2023 I had two BIG bald spots; today (February 8, 2024) both bald spots have plenty of beautiful, healthy and thick hair growing in. Dr. Ardesh has been heaven sent. If you've tried and are on the verge of giving up; DON'T and make an appointment with Dr. Ardesh. You will not regret it.
