After research, I compared two local hair restoration clinics: Restore Hair and a well-advertised competitor. Both quoted fair prices and similar graft numbers for my desired results.

Joe, Restore Hair's client advisor, made the difference. He was exceptionally patient, professional, and caring, answering every question via email, text, or phone promptly and thoroughly. I initially favored the other clinic, but Joe's clear explanations, thoughtful incentives, and emphasis on Restore's strong guarantee won me over. His ongoing follow-up showed genuine commitment to my comfort with the choice.

The Day of the Procedure
I met Dr. Harris that morning. He carefully mapped my new hairline, confirmed the graft count, and approached everything with a calm, approachable demeanor. No rush, no impersonal feel. It immediately eased my nerves. They then moved me to the operating room, shaved my head, and prepared.

A minor issue arose: my blood pressure was elevated at first, likely from too much morning coffee (which I hadn't realized could impact it). The team quickly addressed it with medication, and we proceeded smoothly. Joe stopped by beforehand to wish me luck. A small gesture that meant a lot.

An IV helped me relax into a light twilight state; much of the day passed in a doze. They paused for lunch midway, then continued. I woke later to a staff member ensuring I was alert enough for a brief aftercare video.

Recovery So Far
Day one focused on protecting the grafts, no touching or bumping. They provided a shower cap under a surgical cap for safety. (Note: sedation means no driving home.)

Pain was minimal; I never needed the prescribed meds. Mild swelling appeared over the next three days, settling around my eyes before resolving by day four or five. Some tightness in treated areas was expected.

I'm now on day seven post-op. Progress looks normal: scabs are shedding in donor and recipient areas, and grafts feel secure. I continue gentle care with daily pours of water and baby shampoo mixture, avoiding direct shower spray.

Bottom Line
You're never too old for this. I deliberated for years before deciding. It's a significant investment, but seeing the potential for a fuller hairline in the mirror makes me feel it's worthwhile. I decided that I'm worth the self-care at even at this age.

I highly recommend Restore Hair. The entire team from the front desk to OR techs was friendly, competent, and attentive. Special thanks to Dr. Harris and staff for outstanding care throughout.

If you're considering a hair transplant and debating clinics, my experience points strongly to Restore Hair. You're won't be disappointed.

One tip for those researching: Dr. Gary Linkov's YouTube videos offer clear breakdowns, honest insights, before-and-afters, and real cases. Very informative.

Wishing you the best in your hair journey. I'll update in 9–12 months or sooner if anything notable arises.

James took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, set realistic expectations, and answer every question I had. On the day of the treatment, I felt completely at ease thanks to the welcoming staff and his confidence and expertise. The procedure itself was far more comfortable than I anticipated.

Now, months later, the results are truly outstanding. My hairline looks completely natural, the density is impressive, and the growth has blended seamlessly with my existing hair. Friends and family have noticed the positive change—but no one can tell I had a transplant, which really speaks to the precision and artistry involved.

Beyond the physical transformation, the boost in confidence has been life-changing. I only wish I had done it sooner. I wholeheartedly recommend James and the team at Restore to anyone considering a hair transplant—you’ll be in excellent hands.

There is no pain during the transplant surgery and only minimal pain afterward (with FUE surgery) that I treated with Tylenol and ice packs. Would I recommend Restore? Absolutely yes!

The day before the procedure, I came in for a “haircut” appointment where they shaved a narrow strip on the sides and back of my head. Per their instructions, I had grown my hair out longer than usual, which allowed them to perform the no-shave method seamlessly. That appointment took a little over an hour and was handled with care and professionalism.

The next morning, I arrived at 7:00 a.m. for the implant procedure and was again greeted by their friendly team. I was taken to a treatment room with a chair similar to a dentist’s chair, and the staff immediately made me feel comfortable. The donor hair extraction—from the strip shaved the day before—took about four hours. After a relaxing lunch break, we moved on to the implantation process, which took roughly another three and a half hours. I was finished and walking out of the office by around 3:05 p.m.

Dr. Lovitt gave me the option to remain awake or take a light sedative. I chose the sedative, and I’m glad I did—I slept through most of the procedure, which I highly recommend if you want the smoothest possible experience.

I cannot recommend Restore Hair enough, not only in Denver but at any of their locations. Dr. Lovitt, Dr. Harris, and the entire Restore team truly set the bar for expertise, comfort, and patient care. I’m extremely confident that others will love both the process and the results just as much as I have.

The only “downside”? Now I just have to wait about nine months for all this great new hair to grow in!

assisting during the two-day surgery, to even Dr. Harris himself calling me the night after my surgery to ask how I was doing, I felt well-informed and supported every step of the way! After a full year, my results have been great overall, and the months of anxiously awaiting for my new hair to come in have all been worth it. When I expressed a slight disappointment with my final hairline density, Dr. Harris agreed, and he is standing by his guarantee policy to add some extra grafts in a future surgery at no extra cost and without any hesitation! Not many companies back up their stated claims like this anymore, or they make a big hassle about it when you ask, so I felt it was important for me to highlight this to other prospective customers.

Hair restoration surgery is not something to take lightly. You only have so many grafts available, so each one is crucial to use strategically and be put in hands you can trust. You can take your chances elsewhere and probably spend a lot less money, but with something as sensitive as this, I am a believer that you do get what you pay for. I highly recommend Restore and Dr. Harris specifically to anyone researching hair transplant clinics, and am looking forward to my next procedure and final (final) result!

Everyone knew what they were doing and worked diligently to get done both quickly but comfortably. Would highly recommend Restore to anyone!
