Hello my name is Brandon. I have debated on whether or not I should have a hair transplant for a long time. I finally decided to set up a consultation appointment to look into it and ended up getting it done. Not once but 2x. I have no regrets. Dr zacco, Mellisa and Nicholas and the rest of their crew did an awesome job. I ended up going with the ( FUT ) follicular unit transplantation (2x). I have also had multiple PRP treatments and plan to get more to maintain it. If you are worried about pain there is no need because it is not bad at all. I was awake watching t.v. through a lot of it. The most pain for me was when they would have to inject the numbing medication and even that was not terrible. I do recommend listening and taking their advice on how to take care of it after the procedures. It is a long process but it is def worth it. I am getting ready to schedule me another PRP treatment soon. If you are considering getting a hair transplant I would definitely recommend reaching out to them (AZ hair restoration) they are very good at keeping in touch and answering any questions you may have. It don’t hurt to at least set up a consultation appointment. Hope the best for any that decides to go through with it like I did.

I have researched hair transplant for 2 years. Each procedure and read 100's of testimonials. I finally decided I wanted to take the plunge. I looked at clinic's in other countries for a little less money, but after travel expenses and some of the horror stories I saw I decided to stay local for a few bucks more. I wanted the peace of mind that should anything go wrong I wouldn't have to travel back to another country. Can't put a price on peace of mind. I went in for the consultation. It was not high pressure sales. It was informative, and they were in no rush to answer all of my questions. From the 1st visit with Dr. Zacco, Melissa and Nick, I just had a good feeling. I was apprehensive about actually having the procedure done. I can now say I was worried for no reason at all. The team at AZ Hair Restoration made the entire procedure extremely comfortable, true professionals. I fealt no pain, and slept through most of it. They fed me a nice lunch, had the TV on, the chair was incredibly comfortable. Something unexpected was that Dr. Zacco called me later that evening once I was home to see how I was doing. He genuinly cared how I was doing and asked if I needed anything. Great guy!! It has been a few weeks, the 1st 2 nights had some minor discomfort, but everything healed up great. I also had the PRP done, Dr. Zacco found my vein in 2 seconds and had the blood drawn right away before I could even look, as I hate needles. 110% great experience from start to the follow ups. Thanks Nick for answering a ton of after care questions. Thanks Melissa for showing compassion and for making me feel so comfortable. Such a fun crew, very easy going, but professional. Zero regrets, and I am going back in 3 months for more PRP treatment. Thanks AZ Hair Restoration, you guys rock!!

Great People ! Very professional from beginning to the end, I was very concerned and cautious about hair transplants, even looking into going to turkey because they were so popular, but I called AZ hair restoration and was reassured that the process will be simple and easy, they have 30 years plus experience and I can definitely tell the difference, because step by step, each process was exactly the way they described it, it was nerve racking personally, but all was at ease by their professionalism, even after the surgery it was calm and smooth, they had all instructions easily written down to follow in a particular order, I am very pleased with the results, the process wasn't so painful, and I am looking forward to the second part of the my surgery that I will have in a couple of months, I know I am in good hands, I HIGHLY recommend AZ restorations, very competent, professional and good People.

I received a hair transplant about 2 years ago from AZ Hair and it has been a great success. My crown area was severely thinning and my hairline was beginning to receed. I met with Dr. Zacco, Melissa, and the team and they educated me on my options. I followed Dr. Zacco's recommendations on the type of procedure to do and I'm happy that I did. My crown has now filled in and I'm not worried about a bald spot showing. My hairline looks great as well as is no longer receding. The price is also affordable compared to other places which makes the decision more economically feasible. I feel like I've regained a youthful look and no longer feel self conscious about my hair when in public. Recommend going here for a hair procedure.

I’ve had two procedures done (FUE & FUT) by Dr Zacco and his office team. I'm satisfied with the results. For the first procedure, I had requested an FUE. I didn't consider the FUT, because I was afraid of the strip scars I'd viewed in the images online. I also read many horror stories in conducting research regarding this procedure. Dr Zacco explained FUT would be the preferred method for my particular case. But ultimately, as the client, I made my own choice. The results of FUE came out great but left me desiring more. A year later, I requested a second FUE in a new area. Dr Zacco once again recommended the FUT to achieve the results I wanted. After discussing what my concerns were, Dr Zacco explained the pros and cons and assured me the scar would be minimal and painless after it healed. After much discussion, I took a leap faith going with the FUT and it was the right decision. My FUT results exceeded that of my previous FUE. I am now scheduling my third transplant by the end of 2023. Here’s my personal recommendation for those interested in a transplant:

1. Accept that you may never regain all of the original hair you once had. But you can be confident that a transplant will satisfactorily enhance what you naturally have.
2. Achieving desired results may require additional transplants after the initial procedure. If you don't have the patience or the means consider other options.
3. Trusting the advice of the Doctor, over someone without experience in transplants, is highly recommended for a successful outcome.

What is Growth Factor Therapy?

Growth Factor Therapy is a minimally invasive, regenerative procedure that harnesses your body’s natural healing power to encourage hair growth. Unlike traditional surgical hair restoration methods, Growth Factor Therapy utilizes concentrated growth factors derived from your own blood. These growth factors are essential proteins and hormones that stimulate cell regeneration, boost collagen production, and increase blood flow, all of which are crucial for healthy hair growth.

By using your body’s natural biological components, Growth Factor Therapy can enhance your hair’s thickness, volume, and overall health without the need for invasive surgery.

Types of Hair Loss We Can Treat Using Hair Growth Factors

Growth Factor Treatment is a versatile and effective solution for men and women with hair loss, especially beneficial if you’re experiencing early-stage hair thinning. It’s also a fantastic complementary treatment to boost and speed up results following a hair transplant. At AZ Hair Restoration, we successfully treat several common types of hair loss:

Androgenic Alopecia (Male and Female Pattern Baldness)

This condition involves gradual thinning at the crown or a receding hairline and responds best in its early stages, helping slow down further loss and promoting new growth.

Alopecia Areata

This is an autoimmune condition that causes unpredictable, patchy hair loss. Growth Factor Therapy encourages the affected follicles to reactivate, stimulating regrowth.

Telogen Effluvium

Often triggered by stress, hormonal changes, or illness, this temporary hair shedding benefits greatly from Growth Factor Therapy, helping restore normal hair density quickly.

Traction Alopecia

Caused by tight hairstyles or repetitive harsh styling, Growth Factor Therapy revitalizes weakened hair follicles, promoting recovery and regrowth.

Postpartum Hair Loss

Common among women after childbirth, Growth Factor Therapy accelerates the natural recovery process, helping you regain hair thickness faster.
Whatever the cause of your hair loss, Growth Factor Therapy provides a promising, gentle, and minimally invasive approach to regaining thicker, healthier hair and boosting your confidence.

Benefits of Growth Factor Therapy

Here’s what makes this natural treatment such a popular option for restoring hair health and growth:

It’s a Natural Approach to Hair Regrowth

This treatment works with your body, not against it. We use your own plasma growth factors—no synthetic chemicals, no surgery. Just your body’s own regenerative abilities doing what they do best.

No Downtime, No Hassle

Because Growth Factor Therapy is non-surgical and minimally invasive, you won’t need to take time off work or rearrange your week. Most patients are in and out in under an hour and back to their day right away.

Safe and Backed by Research

Growth Factor Therapy has been studied extensively and is supported by clinical evidence. It’s considered very safe and effective for both men and women dealing with early-stage hair thinning or shedding.

Healthier, Thicker Hair Over Time

Not only does this treatment encourage new hair growth, but it also boosts the strength, shine, and thickness of the hair you already have. It’s like a tune-up for your scalp and follicles.

Tailored Just for You

Dr. Arthur Zacco takes the time to understand your unique pattern of hair loss, lifestyle, and goals. You’ll receive a personalized treatment plan with expert care every step of the way.

Our Process –
How It Works

Free Initial Consultation

Dr. Arthur Zacco, your hair restoration specialist, will perform a thorough examination of your scalp and hair condition, discussing your goals and outlining a personalized treatment plan.
