Doctor Talha Ahmed
The more Dr. Talha Ahmed learned about hair restoration, the more he recognized Dr. Harris and RESTORE as unrivaled leaders in the hair restoration industry. When it comes to innovation, technology, artistry, and patient care, Dr. Harris set the mark high, his expertise is a beacon, and I couldn’t resist the chance to learn from the very best.
Dr. Talha Ahmed Bio
Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Dr. Ahmed’s interest in hair restoration was driven by two factors: professional curiosity and a quest for self-preservation. “Growing up I saw the impact of hair loss in my family, with my father, uncles and both grandfathers, all experiencing varying degrees of baldness. My initial desire to learn everything I could about hair loss and hair restoration was, in hindsight, about addressing my own hair loss concerns. In that respect I can empathize with any person searching for hair loss solutions. The universal truth is - hair loss doesn’t get better on its own. Every day that you ignore it, you continue to lose hair. I made it my mission to study the science of hair growth and hair loss and try to master this field so I can help others with the same struggle”.
Dr Ahmed’s research led him to Dr James Harris, and he quickly learned that for the past 25 years, Dr Harris has been the driving force in advancing hair restoration innovations. From technology and artistry, to patient care, Dr Harris is world-renowned and unmatched in the field, “I realized working alongside Dr. Harris would be transformative and provide world-class training I couldn’t get anywhere else. If I want to be the best I have to learn from the best”. Dr Ahmed made it a point to seek an apprenticeship with Dr. Harris and soak up as much knowledge and procedural skill as possible directly from the Godfather of Hair.
After several years working in the Emergency Department at a Rush affiliate hospital and balancing his training in Hair Restoration– Dr. Ahmed now returns to Chicago as a member of the RESTORE team of elite hair surgeons. From his unique perspective, he understands the journey from both sides; he understands the concerns, the doubts and the self-esteem changes that balding, thinning or receding hair causes in a person. He also understands the importance of giving that hope and assurance back to his patients. “You deserve to be proud of and confident in the person you see when you look into the mirror everyday. Let me help get you there”.

I would recommend Dr Harris and his practice wholeheartedly. Dr Harris and his entire team met and exceeded my expectations in professionalism, service, empathy, and surgical excellence. I am an eye surgeon and I believe I have a unique insight into choosing an excellent surgeon for hair restoration. I researched the top doctors and those who had actually written peer reviewed literature on hair restoration. Having been involved in 38 clinical trials myself over the past 17 years as an eye surgeon, I know that publication of articles reflects that the surgeon is on the cutting edge of their field. Also, Dr Harris concentrates exclusively on hair restoration surgery. The general public may not know this, but in order to do hair restoration surgery, all you need is a medical license. No special training is required. Dr Harris completed a residency in otolaryngology (Ear, nose, and throat surgery) which includes extensive training in facial and scalp plastic surgery. I know that otolaryngology residencies are among the most competitive in medicine. You have to be really smart to get in. He went on to do specific training in hair restoration surgery. He led the way in development of the SAFE system, FUE, and the ARTAS robot. Additionally, he actually does most of the procedure himself. I interviewed other doctors and most only create the implant sites. And as a bonus, he actually has had hair restoration surgery himself. That way, I know he believes in what he is doing. After researching Dr Harris, I flew out from Florida to meet with him. I felt he was an excellent listener and had great bedside manner. I was very impressed with his practice. I went on to book my surgery, and flew back out to have it done with him. He and his entire staff are excellent and it was well worth the trip. So far, it looks great and I am amazed at how accurate his "what to expect" list was. I would recommend Dr Harris and his practice wholeheartedly. Adrian Lavina, M.D. Show Less

I highly recommend Dr. Shelly Lovitt and the team at RESTORE I highly recommend the team at RESTORE. My procedure was a few hours ago to the vertex section and it was a wonderful experience. I had my original consultation in 2016 and once I finally committed to having the procedure. Dr. Lovitt and her team are extremely personable and professional and have amazing bedside manners making sure you are as comfortable as possible throughout the procedure. Thus far I have experienced zero pain or discomfort and am looking forward to scheduling my next procedure to thicken the top of my head from a previous surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Shelly Lovitt and the team. Even if you do not reside in the Denver area you won’t regret having your procedure at RESTORE. I’ll post follow up photos in several months showing before/after photos. Show Less

The hair on my head is now consistent with the way I feel. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Harris as a gentleman, surgeon, and expert in hair restoration. He combines technical skill and an esthetic sense of what looks good for an individual. From the initial interview, Dr. Harris gave me an oversight in hair restoration, both medical and surgical, as it related to me personally. Then he presented what he can offer and what is realistic in expectations. This was clearly quite personalized based on my genetics, age and the current state of hair on my head. With the assistance of talented technicians and staff, Dr. Harris performed outstanding hair restoration surgical procedures. The end result is an actualization of the skill with which the procedures were carried out. I am pleased beyond expectations quite frankly. I am not the "youngest kid on the block," but I enjoy excellent health and feel youthful in all respects. The hair on my head is now consistent with the way I feel. Thank you Dr. Harris and your entire staff which made for a smooth experience in a most professional setting. Show Less

One of the top surgeons/hair loss experts in the country not just Colorado. I have had great experiences with Dr. Harris and staff over the course of the last 10 years in which I have had several different hair transplant procedures over that time totaling about 5000 grafts. Dr. Harris is extremely knowledgeable and talented and I have been happy with my results. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Harris to anyone considering doing something about their hair loss. They offer a lot of different options as well for hair loss. He is one of the top surgeons/hair loss experts in the country not just Colorado. Show Less

Can't thank you all enough! I had 6 prior surgeries before I visited Dr. Harris - I know that restoration can be an embarrassing (sometimes slightly traumatic) experience even in the hands of great doctors (and I DID have great doctors in the past). I was prepared for another difficult procedure and long recovery (worth it for the hair), but Dr. Harris and his staff made everything easier than I could have imagined. The staff made me comfortable from beginning to end. Dr. Harris discussed every step and its options along the way. The procedure itself was much more comfortable than my previous procedures (again, I had good doctors in the past). Here's the biggie: my recovery time was MUCH SHORTER than I'd expected. His team cut my hair with enough to precision that the procedure was almost completely concealed within a week or two - I couldn't believe it. I had be planning to spend the entire summer under a hat but, t0 days after the procedure (1800 grafts by the way) not even my friends could tell anything different about me. I wish I had known about Dr. Harris earlier in my life because my earlier procedure, though ultimately positive, made for difficult recoveries that left me doubting my choices until the results finally came in. With Dr. Harris, I still have to wait for the result (we all do), but I'm doing so while looking good and feeling confident. Can't thank you all enough! Show Less

I had my two day FUE procedure about 11 months ago with Dr. Harris. I was nervous and excited going into it. Dr. Harris and his staff where amazing. I honestly can’t say enough about how comfortable they made me feel and how focused they were on doing an amazing job. His team was professional and really enjoyed their work. Dr. Harris personally called me to see how I was doing after the procedure. Things were explained so well that I didn’t have many questions when I started my recovery but when I did Dr. Harris responded quickly. Show Less

Could not recommend Dr. Harris and his team any more strongly! Could not recommend Dr. Harris and his team any more strongly! I am a 26 year old male who didn't win the gene lottery when it comes to hair. While I wish it didn't bother me, who doesn't want a solid head of hair! It took me a couple of years to commit to a transplant, and I'm so glad that I did, and even more glad I chose Dr. Harris. My issue with some other consultations was that they would either paint too bleak of a picture, or the exact opposite. Dr. Harris was realistic and positive in my consultations, and I am glad I trusted him. I am 1 year out and loving the results. Sure, it doesn't look like it did 10 years ago, but I honestly don't think any other transplant center could have done a better job than Dr. Harris. If I get a few years down the road and want the crown filled in any more, I will 100% go back. Show Less

I can’t thank them enough for making this such a positive experience for me. I had my very first experience with my transplant surgery on October 26 and 27th with Dr. Shelly Lovitt and her support team at Restore Hair. Every member of the team demonstrated professionalism, answered all my questions, performed a fantastic job and really took care of me during the entire two day process. I can’t thank them enough for making this such a positive experience for me. If I decide to have additional transplants in the future, I will definitely return to them. Thank you Dr. Lovitt and every team member that helped me through this process! You were all fantastic!!! Sincerely, Noel Dillman Show Less

Dr. Harris and his staff were true pros, recovery was a breeze, and most importantly the results exceeded my expectations. When I turned 30 I decided to do something about my baldness and discovered Dr. Harris after extensive research. His professionalism and his staff's hospitality immediately made me realize I made the right choice. I was BALD... like George Costanza bald, so my situation was fairly severe. After a thorough evaluation, we opted for a 2-day procedure yielding approximately 3,200 grafts. The procedure was painless for me (although people have different tolerances), Dr. Harris and his staff were true pros, recovery was a breeze, and most importantly the results exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended! Show Less
