Adam77 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Hello, I’m new to the forum and would like some advice/recommendation for a good FUE surgeon in the Chicago area. I had a FUT surgery (1600 grafts) few years ago and the results were not as good as I expected. I’m now thinking about doing another surgery but will go with FUE this time. I have seen lots of advertising boards for Restore clinic in Chicago. Does anyone recommend it. Is there any other reputable FUE surgeon in the Chicago area. Any recommendation or advice will be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to private message me as well if you'd like and please document your journey for the forum. All the best Adam.

Senior Member makehairgreatagain Posted March 5, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted March 5, 2021 Nadimi as well. Restore is a hairmill, I hate seeing those stupid billboards too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Snowboard Posted March 5, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 5, 2021 Dr. Konior is literally one of best in the entire world so consider yourself lucky he is local and just book with him. Dr. Nadimi is his “protege” with a lower cost and greater availability but less of a track record. I had a failed FUE at a clinic local to me before traveling far distance to see Dr Konior in Chicago two times now for FUE. In my opinion only consider Konior or Nadimi in Chicago. This forum helped me find Dr Konior and I thank my lucky stars I did. He does the whole procedure himself and has many documented cases with as close to a “guarantee” as possible as I’ve never seen a bad result from him in many years of lurking on this forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Harry Bosch Posted March 5, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 5, 2021 I am considering Nadimi myself; the waitlist + cost of Konior is likely unworkable. Nadimi has produced a few success stories within this forum. Every ex patient I’ve reached out to has been nice enough to respond with effusive praise. Maybe 4-5 altogether. That said, don’t be afraid to travel if you discover a reputable surgeon whom you feel really good about. I’m in Florida, so a few days in a hotel in Chicago or Vancouver or NY isn’t an insurmountable added cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Snowboard Posted March 5, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 5, 2021 I briefly met Nadimi the day after my FUE with Konior and she seemed very nice and agree that there have been several good cases lately from her. If Konior is unworkable for you for sure I would go to her. The original post’s author is beyond lucky to have both local. Travel honestly is neither a big deal nor that expensive but I was afraid of it for my first procedure which was a big mistake... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Snowboard Posted March 6, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 6, 2021 Congrats Champy you look great! Yes I agree, Konior is currently producing a string of almost impossible results and thank God I am one of those. It’s like Michelangelo during his gilded years, not sure how he does it but all I can say is as my karmic payback....to anyone reading this just book a procedure with him. Dr Konior is that good... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had my procedure with Dr. Konior. The fee quote is made on a case-by-case basis. For max sessions (~2,000-2,200 FUE, or 3,000+ FUT), expect between $20-$28,000 USD. I would e-mail him directly and ask for a consultation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Snowboard Posted March 11, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted March 11, 2021 Congrats man! I had two with Konior and both times around 4 months it was pretty obvious I was in for a good result. Wishing you a great outcome! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
