  1. On May 4, 2017 I went in for the surgery at 7:30 AM and I was picked up at 5:30 PM with approximately nine hours for the surgical procedure. I had 1478 Follicular Unit grafts (1-3 hairs each) and 320 small multi- Follicular Unit grafts (4 to 5 hairs each) for total of 1798 grafts and 3878 hairs transplanted. However, just before surgery started, Dr. Beehner and I discussed the plan and decided to add 148 additional graphs. Dr. Beehner was accompanied by a resident, Dr. Slaughter and I felt very comfortable with both of them. Dr. Beehner did the initial examination and he answered all my questions fully and made me feel very comfortable regarding the hair transplant surgery. My sister had hair transplant surgery twice with Dr. Beehner and she was extremely happy with the outcome of the surgery. I showed Dr. Beehner a picture of me from approximately 18 years ago and showed him what I wanted as an outcome of the surgery. He felt confident he could give me a look that I wanted and now, nine months later I am very happy with the outcome. I was very surprised that the surgery was painless but I did take some pain medication the first night, prophylactically. I only had a little bit of bleeding the first night and everything went very well. I did have a lot of itching in the back of my head in and around the sutures for several months, but eventually that subsided. After nine months, a lot of hair has grown in the areas exactly where I wanted it to be. It appears that my hair is still growing and becoming more sturdy. I am very grateful to Dr. Beehner and Dr. Slaughter for a job extremely well done. I would recommend them unconditionally and have actually recommended them to several friends. I am very grateful for their professional and caring approach and for a great outcome..
