I am 34 years old. I have always considered the physical appearance as essential in our modern world, and it has always been so for me. This is why I have done a lot of sports since my young age, such as fitness, snowboard and martial arts. I also take great care in the quality of the food I eat. …
I first started noticing my hair loss when I was 15 years old, but it was very gradual. I was into my 40’s before it was really bad. I was married for 20 years, but eventually found myself divorced. My social life, while bald, was pretty bad. I really disliked hairpieces, so I looked into hair transplants. My doctor was …
My story is probably similar to many other people going bald, in that I don’t like it. Bald may be beautiful to some, but personally I would rather walk around without my pants on than be bald. Of course, we can always dress appropriately, but not having hair was difficult to work around. Since I started to lose my hair …
My hair loss started in my mid to late twenties and it really bothered me. Oh, did it bother me, regardless of the things you would hear from friends and family like “it really didn’t matter”, or “bald is beautiful.” I didn’t buy any of it. Besides, almost all of the advice I got came from guys with thick, full …
On February 28th of 1995 I had the first of my four hair transplant procedures. Since then, I have never looked back. What a difference this made in my life. The experience made a major change in my appearance. I became an icon of hair transplantation for my two closest friends who have also had the same procedures and for …
Looking My Felt Age I have slowly gone bald since I was about 30 years old. It didn’t bother me too much, until I was 46 and had a daughter. Suddenly most of the fathers (who were of course mostly younger) with children the same age seemed to look 20 years younger than I, even though I felt very …
I am a 52 year old man. I am concerned about my personal appearance and take great pride in how I look. I have been bald since I was 19 years old, and spent most of my life without hair. Recently I began to feel uncomfortable that my baldness was not only making me look older than my chronological age, …
Dr. Porcaro and his staff educated me as to what to expect and how the surgery would be performed. Everything Dr. Porcaro and his staff promised, they delivered, I am grateful to Dr. Porcaro and his staff for having the patience and understanding they had with me. My Hair Transplant results are AMAZING! I am so glad I put my …
I went for a consultation. Dr. Goertz introduced himself and he is a very warm and accommodating professional. He answered all of my questions…. I also sensed that he was as interested in achieving my goals as I was…you can tell he loves what he does for a living. I made an appointment for my surgery and I felt good …
“I did not like losing my hair. I was in a state of denial for many years going with shorter and shorter haircuts. Having a hair transplant was not an option for me because the hair transplants that I had seen before looked unnatural and had the doll’s hair look. I knew I would rather be bald than look like …
It was on vacation when for the first time in my life, I had gotten sunburned on the top of my head. It was then that I realized that my hair had substantially thinned/disappeared in the rear top of my head. Following my return from vacation, I researched various hair restoring programs and selected Elliot & True (now known …
Hairpiece Removed without Notice. After years of wearing a hairpiece, I finally decided I wanted a more natural solution for my hair loss. The hairpiece was not only a source of discomfort and worry, but was also beginning to look less and less realistic as the hair around my temple areas began to thin. The hairpiece on top did not …
When I was asked “what made this a good experience,” I decided to reflect on myself, the patient. Anyone reading this letter doesn’t need me to re-iterate the psychological implications of losing your hair. You know it first hand. What you do need to know is that my hair transplant effectively reversed all my personal emotional roadblocks. The …
My name is Matt and in my late 30’s is when I noticed I was losing my hair. After seeing Dr. Robert Leonard’s name in the news, I visited him in his Cranston, Rhode Island office for a free consultation. Dr. Leonard recommended that I consider hair restoration surgery. I thought about Dr. Leonard’s advice for almost three years …
I was doing a seminar and there were lots of pictures taken, and after receiving them, I realized how much older I looked than I really am. This was not good for my self image as a public speaker. I met Dr. Mike Vories by answering an ad I saw in the paper while living in Charleston, SC. Dr. …
