Before
John is possibly the best-prepared and most thorough hair restoration patient we’ve ever seen at Nashville Hair Doctor. He was particularly concerned about the future look of his hairline.
“Good or bad, I would have to live with this forever. Through my research, I found that there is a very specific geometry to hairlines and their relationship to other facial features, and that there are some very specific geometric rules not to break.”

The Procedure
Due to our free quote request tool allowing prospective patients to upload pictures online, many patients do not need to visit Nashville Hair Doctor until the day of their procedure. However, our technicians are always happy to see a patient in person for a preliminary consultation. John came to our Memphis clinic a month prior to his procedure to meet with NeoGraft Master Tech Daryl, prepared to discuss his hairline research.
“Fortunately, I like doing research and also had pictures of my dad, my brothers and myself when we were all a lot younger so I knew that my natural hairline always had a deep “M” receding shape.
John would encourage anyone considering this procedure to find old photos to better understand the shape of their natural hairline and then share them with their technician to help map out the most natural hairline possible. That is exactly what he did when meeting with Daryl. When he came in a month later for his procedure, he felt extremely well prepared and didn’t have any issues that day. His only “complaint:”
“I am sure you hear this a lot, but if I had known how good this procedure was going to turn out, I would have done it a long time ago.

The Recovery
During the first few weeks following his procedure, John had a lot of questions as to what to expect. He also conducted more research as to what to expect for each of the growth phases, and it struck him how few photo examples he could find of any one person’s growth timeline. That is when he had an idea.
“I thought that a series of photos of my own journey could be beneficial to help someone else visually understand the timeline. This is why I documented my progress from day one, and I am now happy to send you the results!
Below is a selection of those results (for the complete timeline, please view John’s detailed NeoGraft journey).
After
John seems to have thoroughly enjoyed his entire hair restoration journey. Besides getting the fuller head of hair he wanted, he also loved the process itself, including all his research into hairlines and old family photographs. He couldn’t be any happier with the outcome.
“All in all, I am extremely pleased with the outcome and you and your team were fantastic!
