New Discovery! After a hair transplant, the new follicles enter a dormant phase which normally lasts for 3-6 months. After that initial period a hair transplant ordinarily starts growing. After years of observation we have recently discovered how to decrease the dormancy phase with our patent pending and proprietary Accelerated Follicular Restoration™ (AFR™). Growth now starts at 6 weeks to 2 months. No other hair transplant doctor in the world offers this New Innovation! more ...

Hair restoration surgery relies on the genetics of hair growth. For most people, a sizable portion of hair never falls out; it is genetically coded to grow throughout life. It is this permanently growing hair that serves as a "donor" region for hair restoration surgery.

If you have already had hairline loss, hair transplants are the only option for restoring natural hairlines. Because "donor hair" is already genetically resistant to the male/female-pattern balding, it can be used for the restoration of natural hairlines which are also genetically resistant to balding.


At Dr. Shapiro Hair Institute we don't just offer a few referrals but 1000's and we can arrange for you to meet any of the hair transplant patients shown on this website in person and many more. So if you have a particular type of hair or hair loss or have a particular ethnic background or gender we will match you up with the a person with the same hair loss so you can see them in person. No other doctor in the world can offer you that individual attention. That's because no other individual doctor has performed as many micro/follicular unit procedures as Dr Shapiro! View several before and after hair transplant photos and see for yourself how many different successful hair restoration cases we have performed.
