I would like to thank Chris and his team for an amazing experience…read more I was quite anxious when I first arrived, but the team promptly addressed all my questions and concerns, making the entire experience incredibly pleasant. The entire process took approximately 10 hours, and I genuinely felt like it flew by in the blink of an eye. Chris,Laura and Diane, who performed the procedure, made it an extremely enjoyable experience. We engaged in some great conversations and shared many laughs, which made the time pass swiftly. Dianne and Laura were both attentive to detail and you could tell that they truly enjoyed what they do and changing individuals lives. I can't wait to go back to say hi!!

TL;DR: I'm completely happy with my experience and results at DiStefano. If you can't afford the…read moreprices, you can certainly get cheaper work in Turkey, but I think DiStefano offers better value. The process of choosing a clinic was daunting. Most discussion boards are full of people with very strong opinions. ("The only three surgeons I trust in Turkey are A, B, and C. You'd be crazy to go to D!") What are these reviews based on? Most people have between 0 and 2 hair transplants in their lives, so how could a reviewer form an opinion about so many clinics? My guess is that many clinics hire people to write those posts. Maybe there are also some industry experts offering reviews based on years of professional experience. In the end, I found that price almost perfectly correlated with reviews. I wanted FUE with about 3k follicles. There were lots of options, mostly in Turkey, that cost a few thousand dollars. However, as far as I could tell, these were all "hair mills" employing people with no formal credentials. It may be that they get perfectly good results, but I decided it wasn't worth the risk. If I only had a few thousand dollars to spend, I might give it a try. I don't think hair mills are killing anyone. The worst-case scenario is that your transplant fails or looks awful, in which case you'd just shave your head, which is also your best option if you don't get any work done. I couldn't find any clinics with credentialed professionals that charged less than about 80% of the DiStefano price. At that point, airfare could easily cancel out the cost savings. And that's assuming you don't need to fly back again a few months later to fix any problems. For that matter, if something went very wrong, I'd much rather be near a hospital in my insurance network. The DiStefano sales person was very upfront about the limitations of a hair transplant. I even had to sign a paper saying I understood I would not be getting my teenage hair back. I don't think most people considering a hair transplant understand what it can and cannot do. I was replacing roughly 9k lost follicles on the top of my head with about 3k follicles from the back of my head. A transplant is for people with receding hairlines and/or bald spots. It's less helpful for thinning hair. The result of a successful hair transplant is having thinly dispersed follicles covering your whole scalp. It restores your hairline and fills in any bald spots. You'll still look pretty bald under fluorescent lights in an office. You have two options. One is to buzz your hair every few days. It's very hard to notice differences in density with very short hair. As soon as your hair grows to be about ¼" long, the difference in density becomes obvious. The other option is to grow your hair to be a few inches, so you have enough volume to create the illusion of density. I don't part my hair, because the line of the part makes it very obvious that I don't have density. I comb my hair straight back. Then it looks like my hair is thinning only at the front. I'm considering another transplant just at the front to complete the illusion. All those "experts" on the discussion boards couldn't agree on which parts of the transplant the doctor must do. They almost all agreed that a credentialed doctor was essential, and most agreed that nurses or techs could do a lot of the work. But they couldn't agree on whether the doctor should punch the holes and do the extractions, or whether the doctor should place the follicles in the holes. At DiStefano, Bonnie and Beth were in the room with me for every minute of both days. The doctor did come in a few times. I imagine he would have been more involved if something had gone wrong or if I had a difficult case. I'm completely happy with their work. My recovery was rougher than I expected. My head swole up like a melon. This is not common, but be aware it is possible. I recommend planning a vacation right after your procedure. You can wear a loose-fitting hat immediately (and should wear it any time you are outside, for sun protection). I spent two weeks as a funny-looking tourist. By the time I returned to work, it just looked like I had shaved my head. I buzzed my hair every few days for the next six months, at which point I grew it out. DiStefano hasn't tried to sell me anything else, including at my (free) six-month check-in. They've been kind and honest throughout the entire process. If I decide to get a touch-up, I will go to DiStefano again.

I feel that our scalp health is something easily looked over and I was looking forward to treating myself to this service. First, I went over some of my concerns with my specialist and she took photos of my scalp to diagnose any issues. This area is where I deducted a star because a lot of information was being discussed and it was hard to keep track of it all. She gave me a lot of tips and recommendations and I asked if she would be able to write them down for me, but she said they would be in my file. However the file did not really include anything other than the service I was given and recommended products, but not any of the several actions she recommended a incorporate into my routine. I felt this information was a part of the steep price so I would have appreciated being able to have a chance to write it down. After this portion, we went to the spa where I received a head, neck and shoulder massage along with an array of scalp treatments. This lasted over an hour and was incredibly relaxing and worth the money alone. I did not feel it was rushed, she really look her time with each step. After this, she took another round of photos, followed by 5 minutes of red light therapy and some light blow drying. Overall I really enjoyed my experience and while I wont be going the recommended once a month due to price, I will definitely do it once in a while.

THE DEAL: Leonard hair transplant is one of the best Boston hair transplant centers!

Other questions I had before the procedures were quickly addressed by Matt and Brenda.  When I couldn't reach them,  they quickly called back within the hour.   Both are very easy to talk to and Brenda is very compassionate.  On the days I was scheduled,  Marycell the sugerical technologist helped me get ready for each procedure.   Marycell truly cares about me as a patient and was willing to provide anything I needed to make me more comfortable.

DiStrfano Hair Restoration provided me the chance to launch a hair regrowth journey that I never…read morethought would be possible. While I've always been open about my hair loss, I spent the last 5 years of my life worrying as I watched my hairline recede further and further. The worst of it all was that I'm currently only 26 and quickly realized Rogaine alone wasn't going to solve my problems. I began researching hair restoration centers in the area and found DiStefano as a provider that has existed for nearly a few decades now. Lawrence Fulgieri met with me as their consultant, assessed my hair loss, and discussed any and all options ranging from prescribed finasteride to topical solutions. I felt comfortable and no one ever pushed me into the choice to go for a transplant, which ultimately became my final decision. At Distefano, pricing works based on how many follicles will be extracted. For me, this meant about $8700 including a post-op package for 1800 follicles. I decided to go with the FUE process as I prefer to wear my hair short snd wanted minimal to no scarring. Today is Day 10 following my procedure and the hair is already growing quick on the back of my head where donor follicles were removed, with the front healing nicely. Dr. Heinis, with 10 years of hair restoration under his belt, was professional, calm, and humorous, making the 8 hour surgery easy to go through. His technicians: Diane, Julia, and Brie deserve mention as they extracted and "planted" the new follicles with the utmost care and attention to detail for my new hairline. The staff were exceptionally kind and comforting, taking note that I was nervous on the day of the procedure. At this point, all we have to do is wait and watch the results that form over a year! I will posting updated photos as the year goes on. My post-operative package included an anti-inflammatory, anti-biotic, shampoo, conditioner, skin cleanser, gauze. Surgical brushes, saline spray, and a thorough information guide. Doctor Heinis made himself available for text or call with any questions or concerns that arose, with a 1 month visit scheduled.

I was, surprisingly, able to afford way more grafts than anticipated. I had previously visited another known hair transplant surgeon and I found DiStefano to be more affordable, but exponentially more explanatory, friendlier, and very professional. I arrived for my procedure and Dr. Chris felt like I'd known him for years. He explained every step of the procedure, even while doing it. I don't consider myself to have an abnormal tolerance for pain, but, in case you're apprehensive, I really had ZERO pain. The first night, you sleep in a recliner, so I did take 1 pill for pain, really just to put me to sleep. I never took another one. My wife (ER nurse) removed my staples 2 weeks later, also pain free. The instructions and expectations given to me were perfectly accurate and are easy to understand and follow. Dr Chris called the next day to see how I felt, and I can say, 15 months later that my only regret was not doing it earlier. I realize that this is an unrealistically positive review, but it is totally honest. My before and after pictures are dramatic and nothing short of incredible work. If you have questions (no, I don't work there..lol) leave a note and I will give my honest opinion

The consultation was in-depth, informative, and in no way trying to coerce me into any specific treatment for my hair loss. I ended up wanting a hair transplant, and Dr. Boden recommended the FUT procedure. Dr. Boden and his staff were readily available if I had questions, and they were proactive with communicating during the time between my consultation and procedure. On the day of the procedure, everything was focused on making me as comfortable as possible. Dr. Boden and his team were attentive and frequently checked in to ensure I was not in any pain or discomfort. In all honesty, the procedure was relaxing and as pleasant as a procedure like a hair transplant could possibly be. An anecdotal example of Dr. Boden caring about my comfort is when he noticed discomfort in my eye. He had me take a break and he examined my eye, finding something stuck in it. He made sure to give me contact information for optometrists near my hometown and later called me personally to check on how my eye appointment went. The post operation procedure was clearly communicated, and I was given all materials needed follow the post-op care plan. Surprisingly, the pain level was completely manageable and as long as I took the ibuprofen, my post operation pain was minimal. Dr. Boden called to check in on me the day after the procedure to make sure there were no concerns on my end. Two weeks after the procedure, the stitching from where the follicles were removed were taken out, and Dr. Boden examined my scalp to ensure the healing process was going as planned. Overall, this was one of the most pleasant medical procedures I have ever had. Dr. Boden is a class act, and his team, from the front desk, to surgical assistants, are top notch. I would not hesitate to go back to this practice if I ever wanted a procedure again.
