Alopecia is the process of hair loss. Hair loss can occur for different reasons, which can be discussed during your free consultation. The most common form is male and female pattern alopecia which is still poorly understood. It is important to realize that the hair on the sides and back of the scalp of even severe cases of alopecia are somewhat immune to this process. This is precisely the area that hair is harvested during hair transplantation. Alopecia can be due to metabolic anomalies that can be evaluated by Dr. Zacco during a scheduled treatment appointment.

What is a hair transplantation?

Even significantly balding men and women will have relatively thick hair on the sides and back of the scalp. This is because the follicles in this region are genetically programmed to resist the usual cause of hair loss. Hair transplantation is a process in which the hair follicles and its surrounding tissue, a graft, is surgically removed from the back and/or sides of the scalp and transplanted where it is needed. The transplanted follicles usually survive for life and therefore the process is usually permanent. The transplanted tissue, or graft, is living tissue we obtain from you that continues to grow hair for life requiring regular haircuts and will gray naturally. It is your living and growing hair, surgically moved. At AZ Hair Restoration, we employ a combination of proven techniques. We don’t believe that one method of hair transplantation fits all. We utilize several different methods to best fit the individual patient. Sometimes we will use two different techniques on the same patient. This requires more effort, experience, and training. At AZ Hair Restoration, we feel our patients deserve the best.

What is the cost of hair transplantation?

The total surface area and severity of alopecia is different from person to person. During your free consultation, Dr. Arthur Zacco will openly and honestly outline the cost and individualized plan for you. There will be no hidden costs. Financing is available for those who qualify.

How successful is hair transplantation?

Very successful. The vast majority of transplanted grafts survive and AZ Hair Restoration is known for producing a natural appearing transplantation that is virtually undetectable. If requested, we have previous patients available from all walks of life that have graciously made themselves available to talk or meet with you. Dr. Zacco has been performing HT surgery in Wake County since 1997.

Can anything be done about large noticeable plugs I have as a result of a hair transplant at another facility?

Dr. Arthur Zacco have been performing corrective hair transplantation from other clinics for years and finds it personally and professionally rewarding. If the grafts are very large in the hairline, part of them can be moved to another area to make the plugs smaller. Also, smaller grafts can be performed around of preexisting large plugs providing the patient with a more natural appearing hairline.

Can anything be done about the scar in my mustache from a cleft palate surgery?

Scars in hair bearing areas can be camouflaged by transplanting your own living and growing hair directly into the scar. This is useful with scars of the scalp, mustache (scar from surgery to repair cleft palate), beard, eyebrow, and pubic region (caused from burns, surgery, or trauma).

Will I have much pain?

As with any skin procedure, there is some degree of discomfort. We make every effort to minimize the level of discomfort. We use our Ouchless Injection Technique and Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas). Almost all patients inform us afterward that they experienced much less discomfort than they had anticipated. After the procedure there will be minimal discomfort.

There are so many different hair transplant techniques -Which one is the best?

Performing hair transplants in Wake County since 1997, Dr. Arthur Zacco has mastered all hair transplant techniques; FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), Strip FU (Follicular Unit), Strip Linear MFU (Multi Follicular Unit), eyebrow hair transplantation, beard and mustache hair transplantation, and even the metabolic work up for alopecia. Dr. Zacco can use one or more techniques in a single hair transplantation to assure the best possible results for your unique situation.

Results And Testimonial

I started my hair restoration journey three years ago and I couldn't be any happier with the results. Dr Zacco and his staff are beyond amazing!. After doing some research, I visited many other clinics and I never felt like they actually care for me or really understood my concerns. Dr Zacco and the Melissa actually sat down with me during the consultation. They proposed a plan and the method of hair restoration that will work best for me. During the consultation I never felt pressured to take a decision, they were very informative and explained to me what to expect from a hair restoration procedure. The procedure was painless, I felt like I was at home on a Sunday afternoon just sitting in the couch, watching Netflix. This was three years ago, the results changed my life, I feel great about myself, the results were great, natural, no one even noticed I had this procedure done, but my father and of course my barber. I just had my second procedure done last week and I cant wait to see the results. Dr Zacco and Melissa were there every single step of the way, they even made themselves available on a Sunday to see me at the clinic to make sure I was ok to go back to work, they understand the concern of every client and go above and beyond to make you happy. If you have considered hair restoration at some point, but had doubts or if you are simply afraid, please visit Dr Zacco! trust me, a simple phone call will change your life!

Patient

Doctor Zacco is a pioneer for integrative medicine in Raleigh, NC. From an degenerative autoimmune disease that was shrugged off for years by other providers to a new look at underlying lifetime battle with cholesterol. Once we got to the root of many of my problems I felt determined and more confident to do something about them vs. taking another pill. Instead of continuing to take a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) we discovered I had a sever hiatal hernia and torn esophagus. After being repaired I have not had one bout of indigestion. Eliminating the PPI solved my digestive issues including reversing damage to my intestines after years on the PPI. To me the key to healthcare is an integrative medicine approach to discovering your root causes for your health. Dr. Zacco is one who is dedicated to doing just that.

T.S.

The staff was great and did everything they could to accommodate me. It’s been 8 mo. and my life has changed so much. I feel like I have the old me back again and can not be happier with the results. I am so grateful for meeting Dr. Zacco and his staff. Dr. Z gave me back a piece of my youth and I can not thank him enough. I have recently scheduled my 2nd procedure with Dr.Z for a little more density. I will say that if you are looking for Hair graft surgery then look no further the AZ Hair Restoration.

W.P.

I started losing my hair when I was 19 years old. By the time I was 21 I was to the point where I couldn’t stand to look in the mirror, I knew that I had to do something about it. I started doing my research that took me all the way to New Jersey for a consultation. As soon as I stepped foot in the door I was uncomfortable. The people were more like salesman and very unprofessional. I then went for a consultation locally but they tried to talk me into a hair piece. I decided to give up. 7years later I just had to try again. I contacted AZ Hair Restoration and they made me feel welcome from the first word. I set up a consultation and they were honest and explained to me the pros and cons about surgery. I decided to have the surgery (3000 grafts). The pain was very minimal and was over before I knew it.
